It is reported that an effort will be
made by certain prominent residents
of the Second District to have Frank-
lin street opened through to Monroe
street, thus giving additional and
much needed facilities for people
from the northern portion of the city
to reach the railroad station more di~
rectly than at present. '
The advantages of having an outlet
from the central tire statiou south to
the big manufacturing industries and
hundreds of residences in the south-
ern section of the city has become ap-
parent to those interested in the pro-
ject, and all can appreciate the ad-
vantage of having another street run-
ning direct. to the depots.
