If enough signatures al be secur-
ed so as to have Gordon street paved
from Water street to the Central
railroad it should be done by all
means. The present petition is for
Improvement only from Rector street
to Madison avenue when, in fact, that
section west of Madison venue is in
worse condition than all the rest. The
thoroughfare is well built all the way
to South Second street and the peo-
pie living there are deserving of rec
ognition. Between Rector street and
Madison avenue is better than moth
ing, but the whole street is better
yet and the people who are complain
ing of the present limits are justified.
