TIE marrying fever is high in

A Speculation No Longer.


Advertising has become a
fixture. 1t no longer is con-
sidered an experiment or a

1t employs the best talent; it
receives high salaries for it's
services; poor and fraudulent
goods are being pushed back
wards by this mighty force,
and the commercial world is
entering upon a buster, more
profitable era. Only those
publishers who have a bona

Difference Of Opinion in
Engineer Department.
EFFICACY OF THE METHOD
Action Expected in the Near Future.
Order Must Come From the
Commissioners.

The Street Cleaning Department is
speculating upon what the mandate will
be from the higher authorities as to
flushing the streets of the city as a
method of cleaning them. Last sum
mer the Engineer Department had many
discussions whether this method Of get
ting rio Of street dirt should be con-
unued- AS yet there has been no def
mite decision in she matter.
Opponents of street flushing argued
that putting on the amount Of water
necessary for street flushing was inju-
rious to the asphalt. c.. B. Hunt. En-
gineer of Highways. said it was "a wen
known fact that a great amount of
moisture was injurious 80 the asphalt,
and in support of this argument figures
were adduced showing that asphalt ia
cities where flushing is not rcsorted TO is
much more durable than in those where
this method Of street cleaning is in
vogue
Those who favor street flushing adj
vance two arguments i'm support of their
position. They say in The first place
that the use OF water IS much more
efficient in removing dirt aad fine par
ticles Of dust than machine or hand
SWeerers. Their second argument is
that flushing in Washington does mucn
