Williams Takes a Hand.
Recalling the declaration made by
the board of works and the mayor last
winter that no more macadam streets
would be constructed without a blum
nous binder. Councilman Williams adj
dressed an inquiry if it was not the
intention of the board to place bind
er on the macadam roadway just put
down on North Eleventh street, be-
tween A and B streets. He was in
formed that there had been no petition
for such an improvement and there
was no appropriation available for the
same.
Il do not think macadam streets
should be put down without binder"
declared Williams, and the mayor
agreed with him
Cutters are Sinking.
Last year bouldered cutters we're
put down on Charles, Hunt, Boyer,
William, Ridge and Maple streets and
Linden avenue. Last night Council
man wilkins declared these cutters
had sunk so much that they we're CIV
ing absolutely no service. Wilkins
also wanted the weeds cut on West
Second street so it would be possible
for pedestrians to pass along that
thoroughfare.
Councilman White urged that holes
in North Third street be filled so that
there would be less danger of wreck
ing vehicles using that street, and
Councilman Steinbrink suggested that
if the first block of South Tenth street
was not to be paved that the holes
should be filled with "cinders or some
thing else"
Water Stands In Cutters.
Waterman complained that water
two and three inches deep stood in the
cutters of South II street, between
Sixth and Seventh street, all the time.
Steinbrink declared that in the
event South J street was not repaired
the city would soon be confronted with
a damage suit from the wrecking of
come vehicle. Carter said that North
Eighth street, between H. and l
streets, was in terrible condition.
Steinbrink urged, that some action
be taken at once for the protection of
the city's asphalt streets. He declared
regulation of traffic over such streets
was imperative.
