INIIIIES UNDERIRDUND
AND STREET LIGHTING

___..._—*._——

 

The question of the provision of or-
namental street lighting and the pine-
ing of all wires underground on the
business streets of the city was dis-
cussed tn full, last evening, at the
meeting of the electrical conimission
crs, which lasted until midnight. Ex-
pert engineers, who have been in this
city for some time past. studying the
matter. were present at the session
and the proposition was thoroughly
worked out.

Acting upon the general desire of
the people for these improvements.
preliminary arrangements are being
completed for the bringing of this
question before a district commission-
ers’ meeting at an early date, so that
some definite action can be taken' as
soon as possible.

It. is the wish of the citizens that
Washington street be improved in this
manner first for the opening of the
new bridge. Ornamental posts will be
placed on each side of the street, each
post being equipped with two power-
ful lamps. All other overhead wires
and posts will be done away with.

These improvements will bring about
a wonderful change in the appearance
of our business streets. A meeting
of the district commissioners will
probably be called very soon. to act
upon this question. . I
