tie points of ownership thus establish
ed the city as well as the citizen is at
sea as TO the riparian rights Now that

mains for the government through the

plans for an established line known as
| the harbor line. TO this point the city
| will have jurisdiction and may Tegu-
| late all manner of improvements and
| buildings that may be placed thereon.

| taxpayer and resident of the city of

sity of careful investigation of this
all important matter. For the reason
that when this line is once established
it will be difficult to alter its course.

partment to present competent evil

no good reason why the harbor for this
city should be constantly in danger by
a great sand bar formed at the point

far down as Seventeenth street so that
vessels of any importance are obliged
to run in and back out. of a harbor
which is too small TO accommodate the

and then taking direct line that would
come in contact with a point about
