A TAXPAYER'S VIEW. , Editor Telegram: In almopt'every issue of the Tribune and the News fhe- people of our city are confronted with the attempt at-tempt of the editors of those papers to answer . the question, "What alls this town?" - I believe the continual "airing of dirty linen"' 'in those papers before the gase' of visiting people, together with, the slowness slow-ness of our Health department in compelling com-pelling people to clean up their premises in the spring is responsible to a great extent for the lack of interest in real es-1 es-1 tate and the numerous vacant houses In all parts, of the city. It was only a few days ago that a family declined to rent a house -of mme on account of the unsanitary un-sanitary condition of an adjoining lot on which a terrace is built The best way of overcoming the union of church. State and commercialism' is to colonise the State and city with Eastern people. It is the duty of the Tribune and News to boost rather than hinder the growth of our State and city; Yours for colonU-Oon. TAXPAYER.
