A special meeting of tbe borough council was bald in tbe
pablic building last Monday evening for tbe purpose ot taking
some action toward relieving tbe
condition tbat exietB on Cambria
street, trom Maiu to South
first street. For many yean
council bas met with much difficulty regarding draining of tbe
water on tbis thoroughfare. The
condition of the ground is such
tbat all water trom a portion of
the bill section collects at the
alley between Maiu aud Sonth
Firet streets, wbere it has sn out
let through the alley and onto tbe
land of property owners.
An impending lawsuit by a
property owner brought council
to tbe conclusion tbat it would be
better to reestablish the grade
and eventually pave the street.
While tbe matter of paving tue
etreet was not brought up for
final action, vet it was the  con-
* *t
senses of opinion of all members
present that they would ultimately agree to this course and thereby cause tbe water trom South
First street to find a course onto
Main street, wbicb <s the only
means ot overcoming tbe obstacle
and eliminate the water flowing
through tbe alley.
It is not possible to make tb**
improvement at the preserit, bnt
there is conclusive evidence tbat
it will he accomplished early next
spring. This is a step in the
-fight direction.
