So far, there has been no such proof. The congestion, of coarse, must be relieved.

It is to come up for action today. Let not the council delay action, and let it not mistake the right action. * It ig of extreme importance to the city that no one should be put with his back to the wall needlessly. If the public market is Imoved, many business men, who have built up their business and invested their money in the present location, will be immeasur- ably injured. On the other hand, those who would be benefited in the Westlake district are not business men who have depended upon the public market, but speculators only. The city does not want its back against the wall, and it does not want its business men in that predicament, or anywhere in that vicinity. Crome Saree cere ut enero Gerecins.
