SIDEWALK news STANDS

There are $4,000 news.stands on the
sidewalks of Chicago.
The City claims the right to issue
permits for these stands wherever 1t
sees fit.
The abutting tenant or property
owner is not consulted or allowed to
interfere. -f - ~
Moreover the city says what papers
shall, and what papers shall not, be
sold on these stands.
The city permits the sale of daily
papers only under its sidewalk SOW
ereignty.
No weekly papers.
No magazines.
No other publications can be sold.
The city maintains daily news
paper monopoly.
Now it orders the abutting residents,
tenants, business men or property
owners to keep the sidewalks clean
for its City Controlled Monopoly.
The city proves its ownership Of
sidewalks by placing its iron waste
paper boxes on them.
If citizen plants a tree in front
of his home he ceases to own 1t.
A city ordinance provides that mas.
much as all sidewalk space belongs to
the city, all trees belong to the city.
The owner is forbidden to even trim
the trees In front of his house until
he pays the city 50 for permit to
do so.
And now the city council has passed
an ordinance compelling each citizen
to clean the city's sidewalk within 3
hours after every storm. Sometimes
there are half dozen snow storms in
"a hours.
From this distance 1t looks as II
the news'stands will have to go II the
city can make the serfs, beg pardon,
citizens, keep the city walks nice and
clean for somebody elses business
and profit.

FLAMES TANNED BY WIND
Destroyed Buildings Range All Way From Shacks Occupied By Negroes To Homes Up to $6,ooo and 5000
 Estimated Loss Is s3,oooo0o.

Atlanta, Ga = Fire that swept through a large section of Atlanta from Decatur street north and north east, cutting a clean swath of varying widths, finally was brought under control just before it reached the At lanta baseball park. in the opinion of Fire Chief Cody.
 Several blazes could be seen in the northeastern section of the city, but they were being quickly handled, and acres of what formerly bore beautiful homes. laid waste by dynamite, act ed as q safeguard against further general devastation.
 The city is practically under mar tial law. administered by hundreds of soldiers who have been training at Fort McPherson, or National Guards men in camp here, acting under the direction of Col. Charles R. Moves, U. s. A, who officially is under the guid- ance of the chief of police.
 Thousands of homeless persons were being fed and housed in the Au- ditorium Armory the negro Odd Eel lows hall and in hundreds of homes. Most of them saved only what they could carry, as household goods piled up in the streets in advance of the flames were devoured in the rush Of the contlagration.
 For six hours dynamite was resort ed to and Il finally won the fight. Fire fighting apparatus sent from oth- CT cities was of some aid and will be of more, as acre on acre of smolder- ing ruins await water to make them safe
 Only one death has been reported. Mrs. Hodges died of shock when her home was burned. Sixty injured per sons were taken to hospitals.
 Approximately 75 blocks were de wasted, but the area cannot be cor rectly estimated by blocks, as after the fight at Ponce de Leon avenue, the flames skirted that thoroughfare on the south side of the street for some distance.
 Officials would not hazard guess at the loss. The destroyed buildings ranged all the way from shaeks occu- pied by negroes to homes up to S6.. GOO or sS,OO0. Some estimates were between $2.00o000 and $3.000,o0O.
 The blaze started in the Skinner Storage and Warehouse plant, near Decatur street, just east of Fort street, from q cause not determined t quickly spread to the small houses nearby which were dry from lack of rain and. driven by high wind, start cd to ranidly eat it's way north and nertheastward. Around the flame swept area. with it's strets filtered with broken wires. splfaters from dy- namited homes and all the odds and ends of furniture and clothing that gathered in an indescribable mass l from hundreds of homes, United States soldiers stood guard.

 Means are being taken to extermi nate mosquitoes through draining their breeding places and killing the larvae. Up to the present 1892 yards of drainage ditch have been dug, and the ditches will be equipped with oil dripping devices to kill the mosquj- toes. Other laryacides will also be used Dr. Taylor expects to remain in Hamburg a year.
 A complete census of the town has been taken, to serve as a basis for statistics showing the benefit of the campaign in the number of cases of fever. and for comparison with the figures of other years. The census shows approximately BIO homes. with a population of 1860 Last year. phy- sicians estimate, they answered 2,301 calls A blood index of 210 white school children has ben taken, to make possible a comparison of the ef- fleets of the disease on children and adults.
