Show . , Worthy Movements. I We call attention to an ini- portant matter that concerns J the welfare of Garland and her i , wide-awake citizens and also j Jcfor to another very important movo that should be made for J tho benefit of the residents of ' -3 the Bear Rivor Valley. J 1st. The grading and gravel- j ing of Cutlor street. This street l should, by all means, be made j the depot street and should be I gradod and graveled and the; . sidawalks put in splendid con- t j dition. What an impression of J our town tho traveling public I must have under the present i 1 i conditions. There is not a de- , ': cent walk or a fit road from i town to the depot and incoming 1 and outgoing passengers have I ! to contend with mud, mud, ? j inud that is truthfully a dis- J grace to our fair city. The j : railroad company has sot the . ,i oxample by putting the depot J I surroundings in splendid shape !'f j and if our town board and the I Property owners on C u 1 1 o r ,j I street would unite on tho pro- N J position this street could bo graded and graveled, the side- i 11 walks repaired, the barrow j pond filled in aud then from j Main street to the depot this now neglected street would be ( like unto Forest street of Brig- jj ham. It means much to the 'if town, everything lo her citizens ll and some stops should be taken 4i along these lines immediately. tt We are satisfied that the raii- sfr I rom comI)U11" do its portion m in the matter of fiixing up the tB lower part of said street if the ' 1 work is begun and the company j .l I is appoalod to. t j ' J 2nd. Better mail service bo- yi . tween the county seat and the r"j . towns of the valley. At present ' JfJ the early morning and evening 'J1 trains refuso to carry mail be- ' tween Brigham and the towns i, of this great valloy which is an J outrage. Under the present 5 conditions you can write a let- l., ter to Salt Lake or Ogden and m a. . imJI usually get a roply tlie same f J night. Not so between here l It and Brigham only 20 miles h I distant. Supposo you have J fl some important business with ! 1 the county clerk or any busi- . t ness houso in Brigham that muse be attended to the same day. What is the result? You H i must go by rail", telephone at an yj overcharge rate of 25c or let 1 tho business go. lf the morn- I I iuff train would carry your let- J J tors all this unnecessary ex- um pense, delay, otc, would be cut i a out aiid for 2c you could tran- m sact the business and save con- 1 sidorable trouble. Let's get up n potition requesting, yes de- Jtjj manding, that better service be ! given, it is a just demand and V every citizen of tho Bear River 'II Valioy would greatly appreciate S1 the "bettor service" if granted. mJSk Thursday, February 2nd, was "Bear Day." If old bruin eamo Kv: out he certainly saw his shadow and according to an old tradition tradi-tion we aro to have six weeks more of winter. Just so it don't rain torrents but gives us a few feet of snow wo won't kick, but would just as soon see spring come about the first of March as anything else. |
