SAYS CITY rs LIABLE
"Citizen" Declares Property Owners
Not Liable for Injuries on Sidewalks

NOT Liable Tor Injuries on Sidewalks
Mr.. EDITOR. referring to your edi-
torial in last Mondays paper sug-
gesting making property owners
jointly liable with the city for ''in.
juries on defective sidewalks. l be-
lieve in good walks as a matter of
courtesy to my fellow citizens; but
why should citizen be liable for in
iuries on a, walk any more than for
injuries in defective street in front
of his house? The city claims juris-
diction over the land outside my lot,
then why should it not take care of
all as we'll as part?
This sidewalk matter seems to be a
hard question. Please give US your
reasons for making any distinction on
public thoroughfare as between
walking and driving or walking in
the street and being hurt or on side
walk. Again under the new sidewalk
ordinance, has the little fellow on the
narrow street got to cut away his
trees or will the city do it for him?
