Hornby's The mass meeting Monday night was well attended and plans made for obaining- | information from a capable engineer as to the probable cost of a system of water works and electric lighting plant which will include a dam , two wells with pumps , steel tank and the necessary machinery and wiring. H. Dailey was elected chairman and W. D. Armstrong secretary who were in structed to obtain necessary infer mation. The next meeting will be at the call of the chairman. Several new sidewalks have been laid the past two or three weeks. The city dads are putting in cinders for crossings much to the disgust of citizens who were compelled to put down good sidewalks. If cin ders are good enough for crossings , why not good enough for side walks ? If the city can save expense by putting down cinders , why are the people as individuals not allow ed that privilege ? And , since they appear so officious in thatand-some other demands made upon individ uals , why are they shielding some and hampering others ? Their con duct seems to be to make some citi- zecs comply scrictly with laws and ordinances , while others are per mitted to maintain private nuisances to the public without question and in opposition to ordinances or the regulation demanded of others. For instance , they have permitted livery men to drive over tne sidewalks , or the place for sidewalks , into their barns or inclosures , and refuse that privilege to Geo. H. Hornby to get into his lumber yard. They also talk of having him move his coal shed because it obstructs the view of the street , while W. S. Barker maintains steps projecting onto the sidewalk and two open stairways on the main street that in a menace to life. He has also fenced in the street south of his home , where a sidewalk should be built , and is thus depriving people of not only a side walk but the use of the ground in tended for a sidewalk. We would suggest that before he gives any further orders , that they open up his street and build a sidewalk in front of his borne and close up the gaping cellar way in front of his office. As a town board , treat oth ers with the same consideration that you , as citizens , expect and en joy. 'sc CJCJCJgjga Spring and * 1 v 7 Come and inspect our Summer Stock.
