Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: About six months ago the coun
cil of Dunmore borough passed an or
dinance which called for five-foot side
walks from Webster avenue, along
West Drinker street nnd Electric ave
nue to Adams avenue. Flags to be
laid on both sides of the street and
gutters. Various reasons were given
by property holders for not comply
ing with the ordinance, some main
taining that the council had no right
to pass such an ordinance and some
pointed to the damage suit of John
Urlnk et al. with significant nods.
Those who remember the Rrlnk case
know full well that there is not one
property along this line situated as
Mr. Hrlnk's was. In fact, there Is
not a building on either West Drinker
street below Webster, or on Electric
avenue which has stood for fifteen
yeais. And if any one has been so
foolish as to build in the road he should
suffer the consequences of his folly
and not the public.
Others said tha when the traction
company saw fit to place their tracks
In the middle of the road they would
immediately proceed to lay walks. The
traction company having graciously
compiled with the councils request In
this matter, why do not these people
defend their good name nnd honor'.'
Others have been so unwire and, I
might- say, penurious, that to save a
few dollars they have been satisfied
to lay four-foot walks. Considering the
fact that tho total expense to each
property holder Is only about $40 and
any conservative real estate man will
say that the propeitles will be liene
dtted at least double that amount, these
people are certainly "penny wise nnd
pound foolish." Rut, perhaps they will
wake from th, Ir lethargy and save
the strong arm of the law additional
