A GOOD PLAN

The proposition that the city council should eonfne its sidewalk improve msnts hencetorth to those streets which run from the north to the south, com polling the property owners to suild such walks as are wanted on the ayen- ues running from the east to the west, is both fair to the taxpayers and in the interest of economy. The streets which intersect the city lengthwise are used Dy the people generally and their improvement add to the value of all the property in the city, while work done on the avenues is chiefly beneficial to those owning abutting property.
 It would be wise te apply the Princi- pie not only to sidewalk improvement, but.to work on the streets as well.
 There is a law which will permit property owners to improve the cross streets and sidewalks and to compel each lot to bear its fair share of the burden. Aside from the amount neceS- sary to make these streets paSsab.e, it would probably be well to cause those
 
 desiring them improved to in- yoke the law in question, at least until Broadway, State, Main and Alaska streets shall have been put iu irst-class condition.

TO BE QUICK Princess May Will Make
 Nine Days Trip

The Princess May will attempt the unusual feat of making nine days round trip to and from Vancouver this time. She is to sail from Skagway next Saturday night, nine days after her last sailing from this place. It is proposed to get her in earlier on the ninth day than usual and to sail out without the 24 hours wait usually indulged.
 This quick trip is made in order to avoid sailing on Sunday, and it is the purpose to continue the nine days trip whenever the tenth day shall fall on a Sunday.

pany's property was made per
manent by Judge Dixon in the dis
trict court at Pueblo last Wednes-
day. The injunction was neves
needed and had no force as none
OF the men ever tried to make
trouble. Judge Dixon. who does
not approve of Governor Peabody

gender the ill-will OF many by his
action IN making the injunction

more than is absolutely necessary.
The republican state convention
will assemble in Denver September
I4th, but as yet no date has been
set for the county convention
which will have to meet at some
prior date to name the delegates to
the state convention. Ii has been
the custom for the county conven.
ton to adjourn after electing dele.

mate candidates for county Off.

in the republican circles OF hold
ing but one session Of the county
convention this year and transact.

swoop, and it is probable that this
will be decided upon dehniily in a
very short time. In this event the
