Putting Trash on the Street

A number of citizens were before the mayor this morning for placing trash on the sidewalks. This follows the notice published warning the people against it. Explaining the position of the authorities in this matter, only what can be placed in the garbage can is allowed, on account of the necessity for a greater number of carts. The balance must be burned or hauled away by the owners.
