the parking si'iur
The action of the town council
at its meeting on Monday night,
whereby it granted the \V. P. Ai Y.
Route the privilege to use for a
parking strip eighteen ii.ehes of
the street on the outside ot each t>i
tho rails of the railway, ou Broad
way, between Second and Eighth
streets, has been aeverelv eritins.-d
by some, while others are heartily in
favor of It; and still others are
supremely indifferent.
As the railway company, if it ac
cepts the proposition as amended by
the town council, will have to keep
the strip in good repair at its o\\ n
expense, we fail to see where >f
will do any material damage to
one or in anywisa obstruct the tr-i
flc on the street, any more than
the roadbed is now do'nfor by
actual measurement the ties on
v.iili !i tlie rails are laid extend from
is to :!u incites 011 each side, and
there haj, never yet been any com
plaint as to their being in the way
of either teams or pedes; 1 ians.
Wo believe the plan i-1 oposed is
I'll right, and if the work is ear
ned out it will enhance the appear
ance of the street an hundred fold.
Tho only objection we ran see to
it is that instead of stopping at
Eighth street it should <ontinue on
to Eleventh, or belter still, clear
