The way to remedy this would be to remit this special tax to any person laying a sidewalk in front of his property, and it would be an advantage also to the person availing himself of it, as he would thus get clear of the tax for mac- adamization. Several persons already, des» pairing of ever getting anything done by the City, have laid good brick sideswalks in front of their houses, and it is unfair that they should now be taxed to do the same in front of other people's. And, would it not be well for the “Civic Fathers,’ before proceeding further with the macadamizing of our streets, to con- sider the propriety of laying side-walks First, as then the side-walks could be made to suit the streets, and not the streets to suit the side-walks, the present mode of progression savoring too much of “ buying ~ Commercial College. 1 WELSH & OWEN’S BUILDING, Queen Street, Charlottetown.
