Waiting For New Road.

when Will the new eAleHSlOu oi Elm street be finished is question that is frequently asked by almost everybody who happens to pass that way and that the people who live in the southern section of the borough are about tired of the conditions that exist between Scott street and Rubber avenue can easily be learned by any one who has heard them speak about this matter. They claim that they are inconvenienced by reason of ex- isting conditions and also that they are exposed to too much danger when crossing and re-crossing the railroad track and that no attention whatever is paid by those who are in charge Of the construction trains to the conven- fence of those who pass along this way for sometimes it is necessary either to climb over the cars or go around them. They also say that the fiagman was taken off since the closing of Water street, and that there is more need of one now than there was before, for when the old crossing was used people had to cross at a place that was about 50 feet wide, but now they are compelled to cross at any place from Long Meadow brook to the freight house, and that there has been more than one mar row escape along these places. They want to be reasonable in this matter, but think this work has been stretch ed far beyond the limit, and one resi- dent of the southern section of the borough said to-day that if some thing is not done pretty soon that the warden and burgesses will be visited some meeting night by num- Der of indignant citizens whose patience is exhausted, and who want this road finished in time to be In good shape before the winter sets in. The above interview caused the re- cords to be searched and it has been found that on August 25, 1906, per mission was granted by the warden and burgesses to close Water street tc train travel for period of sixty days and one can readily see that this work has stretched beyond the time granted and the proper authorities should see to it that this work is fin. ished without any unnecessary delay
