Council Adopts a New Rals Relathe to
Improving Streets.
PLAN IN INTEREST OF PROPERTY OWNERS
Improvement DlnlrlcU > ot to lie

to lij fit }
In the future the city council will order
no ( streets paved nor wlH It r > aj any ordi
nances creating paving districts unless the
Improvement is petitioned for by property
owners representing thu majority of the
front feet of real estate abutting upon the
street to bo paved and unless this petition
Is propcrl ) certified to by the cltj engineer.
The council decided upon this course by
passing a resolution to this effect at its last
meeting. It will bo rigidly enforced , and II
It U 11 will do away wlih the man > ordi
nances providing for the creation of paving
districts wlthoul the petition of property
onncrs , which are continually being intro
duced and passed at the council meetings ,
The rule was determined upon after a con
sultation between several of the councllmcn
nnd the city attorney. A number of rcasoni
arc assigned for the action , bul Ihe main
ono Is that there Is continual danger that
the courts will declare Illegal the tax levied
for paving which has not been properly pe
titioned for. City Atlorney Connell dcclarci
that a considerable amount of taxes has been
knocked out by the courts on this ground ,
the rtMilt being that the city must pay fet
the paving out of Ihe general fund.
"It Is true , of course , that property own-
cr can prevent arc paving ordered by lh
council if Ihe jwncrs of the ma
jority of property abutting on tha
street do not want It , " declares City
Allorncy Connell , "Tho charter provides
that In cases where the council orders pav
ing , Iho work dhall not bo done If n ma
jority of the property owners file a protest
within thirty days. The difficulty Is , how
ever , that the average property owner doca
not pay much attention to actual workings
of the city government and Is not aware
that an ordinance has been passed , ordering
the paving of hlfi street. Ho can object
after the thirty jlays for protest has expired ,
but It dorti no good. The result Is that
ho Is burdened with a heavy paving tax
that ho pcrhapa cannot afford , but pays
rather than go to law ; or else ho tights the
tax In court and In many cases wins.
"Thero will bo eomo objection to the rule
from citizens who declare that they are
prevented from having streets paved bocausa
non-resident property holders , who nro
holding realty for speculation will rofueo
to Incur the tax for the improvement of Iho
streets. Uven then I question the right of.
the council to order the paving wlthoul the
consent of llm people who will bo taxed
for ll , but In such canes Iho council can
watvo Us rule If ll so desires "
The rcsolullon was adopted for nn econom
ical reason also. In a good many cases
ordinances creating paving districts arc In
troduced and passed , but nothing further la
over done. Nevertheless the city must pub
lish such ordinances and the resulting ad
vertising bills amount to considerable IB
the course of a year. It is the intention t
incur this advertising expense In Ihe fuluri
only where there ie a real purpose to hav (
the street paved.

Scrofula to

Any ono predisposed to Scrofula can
never bo healthy nnd vigorous. This
taint in the blood naturally drifts into
Consumption. Being such a deep-seated
blood disease , Swift's Specific is the

it is the only remedy which can reach
the disease.
Scrofula syioearcd on the head of my little
grandchild when only 18 m on thu old. Shortly
after breaking out It nprr-ad rapidly all over
her body. The teats on the sort u would ne l
oft on the slightest touch , and the odor that
would arise mad' the at
mosphere of the room
sickening and unbearable.
