recommended to bo retained in the navy to fill vacancies as ensigns dont narrow he streets EDITOR THE STANDARD in reading the suppose of mr A II 11 belsons nelsons Nel sons in sunday mornings relating to narrowing the streets I 1 could not retrain from speculating a little upon the economy justice and consistency of the proposition and as a result of those speculations I 1 am inclined to assume the pow ers of the prestidigitator and exclaim presto change which results in a complete reconstruction st and to the satisfaction of my own mind I 1 find the proposition unnecessary extravagant unjust and inconsistent unnecessary because the lots are already deep enough for all business purposes and deep enough to admit of owners locating their bouses to suit their own ideas of appearance and convenience veni ence if tome few individuals have built their houses so near the street aa to require winding stairs to reach ther front door or have purchased property not suited to their tastes trusting to lobbying for an extension of front yard let them pay the penalty not those who are wise enough to have studied requirements beforehand and have built comfortable and expensive homes to meet them extravagant because the expense of moving fences tearing out sidewalks and extending lawna betting out trees at the new street lines and building new sidewalks and irritating will be more than sufficient in a majority of cases to provide the extra paving and as for keeping in repair the streets after the paving is done experience in philadelphia minneapolis washinton and other large cities where they have both wide and narrow streets shows that traveling in a narrow roadway between curbing street car lines wears the paving to an extent far exceeding in cost of repairs that of wider streets where the travel is more evenly it is an injustice to lorce innumerable owners of bugi nees houses on streeta other than washington avenue twenty fourth and twenty fifth streets to move out to the new street lines or forever suffer the disadvantage of their isolated position it is an injustice to deliberately destroy the symmetry of eo many hundred beautiful homes by throwing out of all proportion the arrangement of lawns flower gardens etc and of which no uty in the union has more occasion to be proud than haa our own most beautiful ogden as it is today to day it is an injustice to invite strangers into your midst and exhibit to them the magnificent appearance and healthful condition of your thoroughfares and then alter they havo infested perhaps their all to deliberately destroy the attraction which to many hag been paramount and return them to the condition of narrow poorly ventilated streets perhaps has been the means of them from their former homes inconsistent because the people have elected that the streets be as chev are the vote haa been ard the count made with a majority BO pronounced as to alace on the very heights of inconsistency any proposition for
