I Query ? Correspondence of the Visitor, Ai a Democrat, let me aak if two of the committee appointed at the meet ing laat night to suggest a r-formation in the manner of electing Demo cratic city officers, did not vote for Charles D. Upcharch for clerk of the Superior Court against John W. Thompson, the Democratic nominee? Democratic Voter. Men for the City Government. Correspondence of the Visitor. It is well that the representatives of the people be chosen by the people, and be the choice of the people and not of slate-makers. So that the present thought given to this matter is indicative of a healthy condition; bat of far greater importance than securing certain men in office is the question: "What will they do for the welfare of Raleigh after they become the city government?" What Raleigh needs is a progressive government, men who hive caught the spirit of this age.and are vigorous, progressive, fearless in the right, and determined to push Raleigh ahead and make of it the Queen City of the South. A "Rip Van Winkle" gov ernment may have done for twenty years ago, but we do not want our city fathers asleep to the needs of the city today. Raleigh has possibilities of a great future if she will only rise to the oc casion, and in internal improvements come to the f cont. What Raleigh needs just now more than anything else is a comprehen sive, thorough system of street and side walk improvement. The papers have called attention to it in fair and foul weather; the people have longed for it and asked for it; strangers have been amazed at our blindness to our best interest in this matter; our ex cellent mayor has given the matter much thought and made a good, con servative recommendation in refer ence to It; but with it all nothing has been done. Why is it? And bo we go along.with slush, and mud,and danger of receiving a sprain after every rain. Uneven streets, a stump here, a rise there, a fall next, striking against stones on the side walk, an Indian trail just fit for one person to go along at the time. See the filthy condition of things between Wilmington and Blount on Hargett, also between the same streets onMar tin, and the same on tmany other streets. We cannot.believe that prop perty owners would stand in their own light if theaBoard were to order, after a perfect grade .for all our side walks not less than a four feet brick walk to be laid within so many days or the city would do it at the expense of the property abutting the same It may not be pleasant to admit it but the fact remains that the side walks of our city are in many parts simply disgraceful, and no men ought to be elected to office who will allow such a state of things to continue, When we get good sidewalks all over the city the people will wonder now tney endured the old way so long.
