Bismarck daily tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1881-1916, 1906-05-01

If the city could afford to keep the
sidewalks clear OF mud at such times
as this! But 4 am told there is no
money on hand to do such things.
That being the case It would be a
nice showing Of public spirit II the
merchants doing business on corners
would have the walks cleared. A nice
clean cross walk would surely be an
invitation to follow 1t right in to the
patriotic mans store" Commission
er Mcdonald had a tshunch'' and will
have the walks cleaned before night.
Cleaning Up the Crossings Street
Commissioner Mcdonald is doing
good piece of work in cleaning off the
| various street crossings in the bust
ness part of the city. The mud is
getting to be rather promiscuous and
clean walk under the circumstance
is almost impossible, but he is doing
the best that can be done with the
limited means at hand. In this con-
nection a good act would be to clear
the sidewalk of mud at the opening
OF the alley at the north side of the
Will school house. The walk is al
most impossible for ladies or children
at this point
| Kindly Remembered - Thomas
I Hughes, chief push at the N. P. depot
has received a finely executed pen and
ink picture of himself from a Dickin-
son friend as he will appear when
rugged. out in the new regalia pre-
scribed by the railroad time card.
4 The picture is a striking likeness of
the handsome agent and shows him
with his plug hat, frilled shirt, etc,
Il just as described in recent issue of
the Tribune. At one side of him is
seen small Senegambian lightly at,
tired in red and black breechcloth
holding an umbrella over the portly
form of the dignitary. 1t is zeal
work of art, and has been much ad
mired by the railroad men generally.
