Board of I'nbllr U'ork* Declare* War on Slorrbrr|>er* \\ ho llloek the Street*? Merchant* Take He- vcncr on Dray and Eiprra* Mm. The board of public works ha< declared war against merchants who insist on oc- cupying the sidewalks with their goods, warts, or in fact merchandise o' any de- scription. The board says that the side- walks must be clear. if trie combined ef- forts of the entire police force are neees- saty 10 enforce an ordinance recently passed by tr.e council covering :he question. Merchants are not the only ones who are to be called to account. Even the boot- blacks and peanut venders have not es- caped the vigilant eyes of the members cf the board. While the mimUr,- art* taking in hand tht- question of keeping the side- walks free for the accommodation of the public, the merchants, against whom they have declared war, have In turn turned their batteries on the draymen and tx- prtssmen, who ins.si oa allowing ".heir ve- hicles to temain In front of stores. A merry war is now on and tins result wiii be looktd forward to with interest, as the merchants aver in unmistakable terms thai tne> are entitled to at least a portion of the sidewalk, and the dray m**n cla.m that under no circumstance will they be driven cut of business by being com- pelled to surrender their "stands." In a communication sent to Chief of Police He*4 yesterday by the board of public works his attention was called to the alltged tiagrajit violation of the ordi- nance governing the use and occupation cf the sidewalks, especially those on tlie main thoroughiares, such as First, Second and Western avenues. The chief is told that the merchants have evidently re- moved a large portion of their goods and many of their clerks from the inside to :ho outside of the stores. The letter says that in many parts of the city beer kegs « r «! piled up in front of saloons in row?, three and four feet deep, and many sa- loons look as though they might l*» brew- eries. The chief is also informe i that the commission merchants on Western avenue evidently believe they have a mortgage on the sidewalk, as it is almost Impossible tor pedestrians to pass along the stret c at times. The board of public works, while not intending any sarcasm, begs to suggest to the chief that the sidewalks are the property of the city, and not the property of owners of abutting property. The communication to Chief Reed states that the bootblacks who have stands on the sidewalks, as weil as the peanut ven- ders whose establishments occupy similar position#, are violating a city ordinance and must obtain other locations. The board admits tha: the bootblacks and pea- nut sellers have In nearly every instance obtained permits from the owners and «K- --cupants of the buildings. In front of which they cairy on their humble business, but it Is argued that the owners and occupants have no legal right to issue such permits, as the sidewalks art- the property of the city, and not of the owners of abutting property. Another matter which is to the at- tention of Chief Ke-d by the Iward Is one which is now receiving the attention of the health departments of many Kastern cities. It is claimed by the I»oard that the merchants of Seat tit, as well as others", are in the habit of dumping rubbish of every description on the streets, and that the practice should pot only be d'acon- tlnued as a measure to prevent siekmss, but to assist the street cleaning depart- ment in keeping the streets as clean as possible. After the board of public work* had forwarded their communication to Chief Reed, the owners and occupants of budd- ings on Cherry street put In an appear- ance at the city hall, with a petit .'on ad- dressed to Major Humes. The mayor 1* asked to take immediate action looking toward the adoption of radical measures to prevent expressmen and draymen from allowing their vehicles to stand on that street when not in use. The merchants who presented the petition sa'.d that sim- ilar action would be taken by the mer- chants on other streets and that a gen- eral war would be waged against the ex- pressman and draymen who indulge in th« practice. Several merchants who would IM* affect- ed by the enforcement of the sidew »lk ordinance were Interviewed by a f'oat- Int lllgencer r< porter. One of thtm said: "The enforcement of this ordinate would cos' rn» lots of money and 1 don't believe that the board of public works 1* act'ng wisely In a«k ng Chief Heed to comj>el us to k«-<p a'.l of our goods on the InsMe of our stores. I would not be sur- prised if the merchants would all stand together and refuse to comply with the provisions of the ordinance, and if n»ve«- sary t st the legality of the measure." The draymen say that they will not be driven out of business by being com- pelled! to zo to a back street, while th« b<>otbla< ks and peanut venders will doubt- less alidn by th'- decision of the poi.ee partment.

President Page says: "Pub- lic sentiment about womankind Is wrought up to somewhere near concert pitch In re- gard to personal purity and personal re- epunslblllty in the home and In society. Will you not give more direct teaching on social purity to the end that the condition cf a 'fallen man* may tx» as much an ob-^» ject of horror as that of a 'fallen woman;' that It may be thought as disreputable for a boy to sow his wild oata as for a girl; tlfli: a pure llfeffor both may become the rule In the family," riKIC <>> 'MI K \ OSBMITH.

Capt. C< ttlnby and the crew of th« Yo- jw-mlte wer# just preparing to board th* tug Wallowa, whicn wis laid up alongside, and leave the ship, when the tire boat ap- peared.

Board of I'nbllr U'ork* Declare*

War on Slorrbrr|>er* \\ ho llloek

the Street*? Merchant* Take He-

vcncr on Dray and Eiprra* Mm.

The board of public works ha< declared

war against merchants who insist on oc-cupying the sidewalks with their goods,

warts, or in fact merchandise o' any de-scription. The board says that the side-walks must be clear. if trie combined ef-forts of the entire police force are neees-saty 10 enforce an ordinance recentlypassed by tr.e council covering :he question.

Merchants are not the only ones who areto be called to account. Even the boot-blacks and peanut venders have not es-caped the vigilant eyes of the members cfthe board. While the mimUr,- art* takingin hand tht- question of keeping the side-

walks free for the accommodation of thepublic, the merchants, against whom they

have declared war, have In turn turnedtheir batteries on the draymen and tx-prtssmen, who ins.si oa allowing ".heir ve-hicles to temain In front of stores.

A merry war is now on and tins resultwiii be looktd forward to with interest,as the merchants aver in unmistakableterms thai tne> are entitled to at least aportion of the sidewalk, and the dray m**ncla.m that under no circumstance will theybe driven cut of business by being com-pelled to surrender their "stands."

In a communication sent to Chief ofPolice He*4 yesterday by the board ofpublic works his attention was called tothe alltged tiagrajit violation of the ordi-nance governing the use and occupationcf the sidewalks, especially those on tliemain thoroughiares, such as First, Secondand Western avenues. The chief is toldthat the merchants have evidently re-

moved a large portion of their goods andmany of their clerks from the inside to:ho outside of the stores. The letter saysthat in many parts of the city beer kegs« r«! piled up in front of saloons in row?,three and four feet deep, and many sa-loons look as though they might l*» brew-eries. The chief is also informe i that thecommission merchants on Western avenueevidently believe they have a mortgageon the sidewalk, as it is almost Impossibletor pedestrians to pass along the stret cat times. The board of public works,while not intending any sarcasm, begs tosuggest to the chief that the sidewalksare the property of the city, and not theproperty of owners of abutting property.

The communication to Chief Reed statesthat the bootblacks who have stands onthe sidewalks, as weil as the peanut ven-ders whose establishments occupy similarposition#, are violating a city ordinanceand must obtain other locations. Theboard admits tha: the bootblacks and pea-nut sellers have In nearly every instanceobtained permits from the owners and «K-

--cupants of the buildings. In front of whichthey cairy on their humble business, but itIs argued that the owners and occupantshave no legal right to issue such permits,as the sidewalks art- the property of thecity, and not of the owners of abuttingproperty.

Another matter which is to the at-tention of Chief Ke-d by the Iward Is onewhich is now receiving the attention ofthe health departments of many Kasterncities. It is claimed by the I»oard that themerchants of Seat tit, as well as others",are in the habit of dumping rubbish ofevery description on the streets, and thatthe practice should pot only be d'acon-tlnued as a measure to prevent siekmss,but to assist the street cleaning depart-ment in keeping the streets as clean aspossible.

After the board of public work* hadforwarded their communication to ChiefReed, the owners and occupants of budd-ings on Cherry street put In an appear-ance at the city hall, with a petit .'on ad-dressed to Major Humes. The mayor 1*asked to take immediate action lookingtoward the adoption of radical measures toprevent expressmen and draymen fromallowing their vehicles to stand on thatstreet when not in use. The merchantswho presented the petition sa'.d that sim-ilar action would be taken by the mer-chants on other streets and that a gen-eral war would be waged against the ex-pressman and draymen who indulge in th«practice.

Several merchants who would IM* affect-ed by the enforcement of the sidew »lkordinance were Interviewed by a f'oat-Int lllgencer r< porter. One of thtm said:

"The enforcement of this ordinatewould cos' rn» lots of money and 1 don'tbelieve that the board of public works 1*act'ng wisely In a«k ng Chief Heed tocomj>el us to k«-<p a'.l of our goods on theInsMe of our stores. I would not be sur-prised if the merchants would all standtogether and refuse to comply with theprovisions of the ordinance, and if n»ve«-sary t st the legality of the measure."

The draymen say that they will not bedriven out of business by being com-pelled! to zo to a back street, while th«b<>otbla< ks and peanut venders will doubt-less alidn by th'- decision of the poi.eed« partment.
