Editor Intelligencer: The bum con dition of the majority of the streets of this city?"The Electric City" and the city that we have heretofore been boasting of being so beautiful?is be coming unbearably bum. The coun try road is far better. But we started to tell of Marshall Avenue, one of the most popular Bhort residence streets in the city. The writer has been living on this street neatly two years. Last summer the weeds were cut down and nothing further done until after Christmas, when the scrape took a turn of about thirty minutes up and down the street. About the first of July the weeds were again chopped down and about a half dozen loads of dirt dumped on the up per end of the street?and then tbe slow, poky - street gang moved to an other Btreet. We have walked np and down this street for the last year?I should have said ditch?with water up to the ankle, weeds being four and five feet high on the edge of the walk, and we would be forced to take the center of the walk?which is the ditch. Wo could not take to the street for mud would swallow us. We have been to the Alderman from our Ward and each time got promises ?but promises will not remedy the bnm condition of the street. We have always been a strong supporter of this good Alderman and we can see no rea son why he should treat us as though we were a step-child. But, wo sup pose election time will roll around again and we intend to support a man who will work our streets. Do not understand us as kicking on any street superintendent. The gen tleman who was in oharge of the gang on our street seemed to want to fix Our street in good shspe, bnt he did not have enough hands and teams and was compelled to skip about, ehop weeds and do the best he could. A good sire pipe was removed from across the side walk in front of our gate and the hole was never refilled. If we fall in that ditch And get injured we intend to sue the city of Anderson for damages. If our memory serves uj right, the couneil agreed on* spending so much money for street paving this year, and it was supposed that the regular street forc? would conti rfue to keep the streets in repair. But thia has not been done ?the streets have been allowed to go on their way rejoicing. We woold not grumble but we pay good taxes and want good streets in return. And then when we accidently get hauled up in front of the Mayor at one of his 10 o'clock matinees he never fails to crack us for a good pile of 1 money. We do not mind paying for our failings and misfortunes, out we like to see justice dished out in fair doses. We would like to see a good many changes in the city government and believe it we live a few. months longer we will see it. And that $5 fOr the Alderman who shows up at the council meetings! We believe they deserve it, but should not have voted it to themselves. "461 Marshall Avenue.7' All of the standard makes of Ice Cream FreezArs, in nil alaaq, are carried by Sul livan Hdtf. Co.

H. H. WntklnB, Cbm. Co. D?m. Kx. (,'om. K. W. Look, Sec. and Treas. Attention, dry Fathers! Editor Intelligencer: In yonr issue of July 5th "Taxpayer" takes a ration al view ot the conditions of Depot str;;et, developing the Migration that economic observance should bo our guide in the expenditure of tho pub lic's money and utilities. While tbo town was struggling for expansion, the means as well as ex perience in Civics limited, criticism would have been uiijuat?out of place. Things have cbanged, however, re cently, and it is bigb time that those serving on tbe council ehould profit by the experience, heeding the advice of a competent engineer employed by the city, and not arrogate to themselves the light to ignore economic ques tions. A competent City Engineer will obey orders by those in authority, but it should bo remembered, that one famil iar with his profession, competent, etiicient and honest, would discharge his duties with a knowledge how, and where to economize. At any rate, there would be no con fusion where an elliciont "Head" was permitted to organize his forces sys tematically, methodically, directing all public work on carefully formulat ed plans by one competent to do so. Provincealism cannot thrive in a community accepting modern public utilities. Ignorance must submit toknowledge, experience, efficiency, ability, all of which mer us more rapid progress up on a higher economic basis. Citizen. Lowndesville News.
