There is one suggestion that
the News has made before that
demands the attention of the
Board of Aldermen. Brevard is
growing rai)idly and owing to the
location it is necessary that a sur

be set forth in their declaration,
i)ut wlia.t tiie people want. If the
a few years at most either lower
or elevate the streets and side
walks in front of their properties.
We all khow that some changes
will have to be made in the grade
of most of our streets in the near
future and the Aldermen should
now have the levels tai\en and de
cide on the permanent grade of
all our streets as laid out. After
the survey the |)arty building can
learn the exact height at which
he will have to build his lloorand
know that said elevation will be
permanent and that his store will
not be eitlier ai)OV(' or below the
level of the sidtnvaik or street.
And thei’O is anotiier subject
that demands attention and that

It is rashness that borders on
recklessness to allow buildings

and the (SiV’'" method of prevent
ing it is by pas.si.'J^^'o^rd'iian-
ces and making such laws*^as vV’’"
prevent their erection. The mail,
business section of the tov\n
should be included in the said
tire limit and witliin it no frame
house or shingle roofed building
should be built. Insurance is
(j[uite an item in the expense ac
count and will so continue until
the course we have suggestc'd is
adopted. Let the grade of our
streets be adopted and a tire lim
it section of the town be located.

the duty of the democratic party
as a re[)resentative of all, to har
monize these conilicting ele

receive sui)})ort from all. This
can only be done by a fearless
declaration of i)rinci[)les which
