Show Street I priYe tiii I few persons have any idea of the amount of work being done and the sum of money expended in street improvements at the present time while a great maayhave but a slight idea of the amount of street we have to be improved The solution solu-tion recently passed by the City Council ordering the bringing of certain streets and sidewalks to tie established grade is being enforced and while resulting in great inconvenience I incon-venience for a time to all the benefits bene-fits and comforts are now being felt and the action of the Council applauded ap-plauded by all V Commercial street also is being brought to the established grade at the south end and a large number num-ber of men and teams are employed constantly in this work Other improvements elsewhere are in progress The much needed repairs on South Temple street east of the Eagle Gate have commenced and are being prosecuted prose-cuted though not as rapidly as those whose requirements enforce travel over it could desire On Third Smith street east of Second East improvements are also in progress pro-gress and in fact in many directions direc-tions of which the general inhabitants inhabit-ants have no idea It is evident the city is doing all it can but it is unfortunate un-fortunate that so much valuableS valuable-S ground is being wasted in streets which to keep in anything like good repair would bankrupt a large and more wealthy city than ours The broad streets would be beautiful were they kept in good order but at present a vast majority of them are and will be greatly more than is required and will be a constant and unnecessary burden to taxpayers The evil could be remedied only with difficulty so it is perhaps best to grin and put up with the streets I as they are V |
