In the paving of Rosabel street for the

There is no secret about this matter
any more, and no sense in making pre-
lenses concerning it. For the benefit
of his private interests one member of
the assembly has been able to keep one
of the principal streets in this city in
practically impossible condition for
some years. Attention has been called
to it again and again, and e Gleb e
has exposed his course and its con-
sequences. Yet this man, by one device
and another, by resort to all the forms
of delay known to council methods.
has kept this Improvement tied UP,
and at the end of three years is still
securing postponement.
There can be no excuse for any
member of either branch of the council

proposition or appeal whatever to de.
lay by one day the proper paving of
Rosabel street. The farce is played
out. The property owners along that
thoroughfare are deeply Injured, and
the people of the entire city find their
rights invaded by a personal infu-
ence. The performance should put an
effectual end to any future political
