Two New Streets Are Wanted

NUMEROUS PETITIONS TO THE NEW COUNCIL

Additional Water Mains Asked For — A Storm Sewer Wanted on Sixth Street

---

The council was asked to open two new streets Monday night. Mrs. Gilbert Kellogg and nine others wanted Martin street opened as platted. A petition was also presented to have Church street opened from the south line of the Hill addition and the north line of the Miller addition and a street opened east and west through Judson's land from Forest avenue to Church street. These petitions were referred to the street committee. 

But these and the Liberty street paving and removing of oil tanks, referred to in another column, were by no means the only petitions received. The farmers' petition headed by William Aprill, already published in these columns, protesting against the 10-foot opening at Liberty street, was read. 

Fred Staebler and a number of others wanted a water main built on W. Huron street to the city limits and on Dexter avenue and Grand View drive. They complain that their wells had dried up since the water company had put down its new wells. The water committee will consider the petition. 

Gottfrey F. Schoettle and others ask for a storm on W. Sixth street to prevent the further running of water in cellars.
