Mayor Fern was more conservative

yertiser was shown him. THE matter
Of regulating the width Of sidewalks, -
he said ',wiIl be reported upon by Dep
uty City Attorney Milverton at the
next meeting Of the supervisors on the
twenty-t1ird Of this month, and then I
think the whole question should be gone
over with the supervisors, the superin-
tendent OF public works, the attorney
general and the Governor before any
active step is taken. J. Y. NcCand-
less rlgidIy enforced the sidewalk regu-
lations when he was superintendent Of
public works, but his successors have
neglected this important work, and it
IS time that something is done, but We
don want to rush in and make any
mistakes. 1t is better to find out the
right way first and then proceed when
we are sure OF our ground. -
