WOODWARD STREET.

Sir, —Since a Parliamentary Committeo shirked its duty, is Woodward Street to remain as it is? As pointed out by a correspondent in your paper, the Tcrraoo roadway is dangorously narrow opposite the club gates,.and I should like to call attention to tho clangor in leaving the footpath up Woodiward Street in its present unfinished condition. Only last week a cab going up aud a motor car coming down put several persons in a hurry-scurry through having no footpath. . , Now, I should like to ask tho Mayor or Councillor Luke (who seems anxious to keep his name before the public and to show he is not on the Fisher side), "AVas thore no stipulated time in the agrcoment for tho owners of land to finish their wall so that the council could make a propor footpath?" If thero was 110 timo stipulated had not the counoil better spend a few hundreds more and carry up the wall? It is all very well for the Mayor and Councillor Luke t<f talk and for tho other councillors to sit dumb, but tho roa v d as it is is bad for the city, and if tho council had looked after it and seen that tho proper area of land was giren as agreed on, tbon it would have beon much bottcr, and the council could have taken some pride in the matter, but it looks as if tho city will have to wait until tho present owners or future owners of land decide to build, and also as if tho counoil is afraid of Councillor Fisher. —I am, etc,, ~V'•: TERRACE.
