hard earned dollars to bring it to its
~ aeent condition. This property
would be irreparably damaged, next
would be the property of j. S. Doughty,
Gpciling the appearance OF his coy
home. Then next would be the lots
platted by Mrs. j. w. Miner, all of
which lots were made to conform to
the fifty foot road, and which road or
part of which was recently given to
the town, so that it might be made
fftv feet wide Is it reasonable to de-
mand of the owner of this property to
make an entire change in the plating
cf these lots after the same have been
surveyed and recorded at considerable
cost? II will be great damage to
take off ten feet from this subdivision.
And so it will go, doing damage to
every one of the twenty-four owners
until il come to end of the street on
| Graves avenue A. l.. Davis has built
homes, and has laid down sidewalk
along the entire frontage, and laid
the walk exactly where the town
board ordered. Now the town attor-
ney says they made mistake at that
/ time, also when they told G. Il. Gil
more where to put his walk, also when
they put down costly cement cross
ing to correspond with other side
walks also when they graded for fifty
fleet instead of sixty feet. Now the
order is to have all these sidewalks
and crossings removed and others
must be laid, so that the road can be
widened Surely it looks as though
our town board might give the subject
| further consideration and not force
the property owners into court. Then
the sidewalk could be put down at
once.

cone frcm their side of the street, and
as far as we know none of these per
sCI5 are insisting that the town board
m Ike such a radical change.
he question then arises, where does
th9 demand ccme from, and why does
the Town Board want to work such
hardships on so many taxpayers
Surely there is no demand from any
other part of the town, and there can
be no demand on account of the CON
gected traffic on the street. 1t is a
street on which there is but little traf-
fc, and but few passers. So that if
there were thousand times more
than at present, fifty-foot road would
still be plenty wide.
If it is made sixty feet, it will sim
ply mean less productive land, beauti-
full cottages seriously damaged in ap-
pearance and the street greatly MARI
ed and more room for the growth of
weeds, besides the great expense to
the town of taking up some of the
sidewalks and laying down others, the
removal of fences, the uprooting OF
trees, the removal of a ditch and the
extra cost of grading and graveling.
There are so many places where the
tax money is needeu, tnat IL WOulu
look like throwing the peoples money
to the birds to do such foolish and
Wanton work.
1t would be altogether different if
there was a demand for the widening
of the street and such change was
necessary.
The enforcement of such an ordin-
ance would make a bable of confusion
and destruction from Wadsworth to
Graves avenue, beginning with j. S.
Mallett's beautiful home, which has
taken years of steady work and EIany

Of Interest to
Taxpayers Only

After the discussion which took
place at the last town board meeting
in regard to the laying OF the sidewalk
on Ralston avenue, one cannot help
but feel that there is considerable mis-
understanding in regard to the subject.
1t is with no desire whatever on the
the part of those who are now delay
ing the laying of the sidewalk, to an
tagOnize the town board in its effort
in the direction OF necessary improve
ments. For our own part it is nearly
year ago since we let contract for
sidewalk fronting on our acreage on
that street, but the contractor came
to us with the information that he
could not tell where to put it, as there
was opposition on the part of the
Town Board to lay it, according to the
fence line. and that it had to be laid
about ten feet farther south than the
fence line. This order caused the de-
lay and consequently instead of good
sidewalk the people have been minus
the walk all this time. At present the
opposition is not to the laying of the
sidewalk but to the placing of it ten
feet or more south of the fence which
was placed there over twenty-five
years ago by the county commission
ers and since then, adopted and ac-
cepted by the town board. Probably
there is no one person in Arvada who
has paid for more feet OF sidewalk
than the writer and we have always
had the walk laid in advance of either
petition or an ordinance. We have
steadily advocated walks. wherever
necessary, and believe they are a
great improvement to the property as
well as the town.
The delay arises in the town board
trying to compel property owners to
give up land on which they have paid
taxes Tor over twenty years, and some
OF which has been improved by the
building of homes The setting out OF
shade trees and lawns and the laying
already Of good cement sidewalks.

Of pretty cottage homes and but few

an uncalled for ordinance.
/ The statement was made at the last
town board meeting by the town at
torney, Mr. G, b. Campbell, that a
large majority Of the people on Raj
stOn avenue want the street made six
| ty feet wide, therefore let us 20 ahead
| and give them what they want. The
facts however, show to the contrary
that the large majority are opposed
TO such a change, and such a state
ment plainly proves that the trustees
of the town have not carefully looked
into the matter, They are all busy
men, and The sputter Of the few has
had more effect on them than the quiet
wish OF the many,

tqat has been in progress for the

it's course. Much of the produce
which was of a perishable nature
has shrunken until it has about
surpassed it's usefulness. The
interest, however, has been quite
pronounced as many people stop
to look as they pass. All agree
that it has well served the pllr-
pose of showing what this coun-
try has produced and it has been
a very inexpensive way of ad-
vertising. Now, we wish to no
tify those who wish to reclaim
their produce to do so at their
earliest convenience as the cold
weather will soon be here and
we do not guarantee against a
freeze. We wish to thank one
and all for their prompt response
and invite them to come back
again next year with even a bet
