Under the law in many of .he states, where the opening of a uew street directly enhances the value of adjacent property, the cost of the im- provement is assessed against that property. Bar this ts not the law here; the ouly rererencé to the subject of enhanced value belog that the jury of eondempation, in assessing the value of ad condemned, shail have regard to the Increased value of whut Js left. But in the event ol the increase in value being far in ex- cess of the value of the land taken, there is no law, at present, to provide for assessing that increase agaiust the land. Such a law ts mani- festiy just and ought to be enacted. The pub- lic could not suffer by deferring the Massachu- setts uvenue extension until a proper law to govern that and similar cases cau be obtained, There is great force in the objection made by many citizens tw using the public money to pity Owners of country property for the privi- lege of converting it into city lots, and thereby increasing its value five or ten tid, ata time, too, when every dollar is required to improve and keep in repair roads aud streets already existing. 3c. We ————_ A County Tax-Payer Protests. To the Editor of the THe EVENING STAR: Asa citizen of the county und knowing the condition of tie roads in the county, I also protest against the extension of Massachusetts avenue this year, at the expense ot the county fund, or until Congress makes special pro- vision for it, Noone ei claim that there is a sity for tis exteusion; that there are now living along the line who are in tite Deed Of the extension. It 48 perfectly pparent to every one that this movement is ol uo present benefit, except to real estate ownersand fand specuisiors, and that it ts now urged forward to boom and enhance the Vulue of their property. Mast these men be first served at the pubiie expense when there ts seh pressing need for all ue money avullable ty pul the existing rouds in passable condition? Fourteenth street road, ou which there is more dauy travel than on ay street in the city, with twoexceptions,and which ougitlons agoto have ‘eeu laid with’ concrete to Mt. Pleasant, is now in a scandalous condition. Along Ubis’ part ot the road there Is an apology for a macadam- ized surtace. But the broken stoues, vig, little und stove dust, were ail dumped down together aud covered with course unpackubie gravel, in- stead of laying tue stone properiy by screening aud ussortiug tue stone, and Laying frst the large pieces and rolling, tuen the smaller pieces and. roling, and fluaily coveriug with the Stone dust.” And now tue road is bristling with Suarp points and as rough as small stones ean make it. This ts ouly one instance of tue long negiected Condition of tue extensively traveled county roads. Again, a street extension omy about two hundred feet in lengub is pressingly needed to open a way suauiward from the Mt. Pieasant school house to Kenesaw avenue, by which a quarter of a mite ‘of “travel, both morning and evening, would be saved to dozeus of the puplis attending the schools, At least twice the citi zens have petitioued the Comuinissioners to have tuis short extension opened. The answer Was that there were uo funds to do it with, and that they nad no authority to do it without a Special wet of Congress; and they declined to even recommend it. ‘This was by the former Commissioners. sul the people Show no per- sonality in. the Commisstongrey omy the ote, Af the Commissioners have the authority, as they now ciaiin, and the money which they now propose to spend on Massachusetts avenue extended, I for oue shall loudly protest agutust expenditure of one ceut there be.ore, at st, 14th street road shall be put in good con- dition aud the short excension at ML Pleasant Shall be made.

HE ADVISES THE LABOR CANDIDATE TO TRY FOR 18 SEAT IN CONGRESS, Representative Hewitt, the democratic can- didate tor mayor of New York, wrote yesterday an open letter in reply to Henry George's letter oft the day before. Mr. Hewitt 1s compelled to decline his invitation looking to a joint discus- sion of the questions at issue. He answers Mr. George’s arguments on the labor and property questions, and thinks he (Hewitt) bas as much right to assert that the anarchists, nihilists aud socialists support Mr, George tor mayor as George has to declare that the politicians sup- rthim. He suggests that as George's pecu- iar views and grievances ratuer qualify him fora legislator thn an executive oificer, tat he contend fof Mr. Hewitt’s seut in Congress, made vacurt by the latter’s candiducy tor yor, may A Vast Area Burned Over. THE MOST EXTENSIVE PRAJRIE FIRES EVER KNOWN IN THE NORTHWEST, Intelligence has been recetved from Dun- seith, Dak., in the Turtle mountain region, of the taost extensive prairie fires ever known in the northwest. They have been raging for ten days, both in the mountain and on the prairies. It is credibly reported that over 10U square miles of prairie and timber land have been burned. ‘Thousands of tons ot huy have also been destroyed, with a lurge number of houses, barns, crops and ull kinds of stock, Many set tlers Have lost ull of their possessions and the mountain towns narrowly escaped destruction. Buttineau was only saved by the efforts of cit zens, Every man in Dunseith and all the towns in that vicinity has been out fighting flames, thus saving considerable property.

INFANTILE AND BIRTH HUMORS SPEEDILY CURED By CUTICURA.

Avsolutely pure, MY OLDEST CHILD, Now six years of age, when an infant six months old, was attacked with a virulent, malignant skin disease, All ordinary remedies falling, we catled our family physician, who attempted to cure {1; but it spread with almost incredibie rapidity, until the lower portion of the little fellow’s person, from the middle of his back down to bis knees, was one solid rash, ugly, painful, blotched, and malicious, We had no rest at night, no peace by day. ‘The physician did not know then, aud does uot know now, what it was. Finaliy, we were advised to try Coriccra REMEDIES. Withous the knowledge of our physician, I procured a box of Cu- TicURA and acake of CuTicuRASoaP. The effect WAS SIMPLY MARVELOUS, Using the two together, first washing him thoroughly with CoriccRa Soar, then anotuting him with Curi- cura. From the first application a change for the better appeared. The doctor sald we had no further need of him, and ceased his visits In three or four weeks a complete cure was wrought, lea¥ing the ilttie fellow’s person as white and healthy as though he had never been attacked. In my opinion, your valuable remedies saved his life, and today he is astrong, healthy child, perfectly well, no repetition of the dis- ease having ever occurred. You are welcome to make any use of this you may deem best. GEO. B.SMITH, Att'y-at Law and Ex-Proa. Att'y, Ashland, 0, Reference: J,@. WEIST, Druggist, Ashland, 0.
