Show abominable sidewalks it is not my nature to grumble but I 1 think attention should be called to ahr abominable condition of the side walks in some portions of our city one place iu particular I 1 will mw tion oo 00 the north side of second street a short distance east of main is a piece of property fronted by a sidewalk which is a disgrace to civilization the owner of this properly has seen fit to raie the grade of his side a mess of yellow sticky pasty mud which in wet weather is absolutely in passable by men let alone ladica the owner of this place does not reside there himself and in all probability has no cauce to via it abo place except possibly to collect his ren hence he apparently cares nothing fur the public who have to wado through this disgusting bior aes 1 could mention several other places equally as bad but this is a fair specimen I 1 respectfully submit to the powers that be thai this gentleman and some others should be required to place their in u passable particularly when said sidewalks are near the business center or in thickly populated districts respectfully yours MUDDY BOOTS |
