there was but one sentiment and that
waa following the suggestion of Mr.
Home. Tho more the people thought
about a big wide street so paved aa
to be cleaned easily, and filled with
cotton and country wagons, the more
they Inclined to that Idea. They
thought It would conform much to the
Idea of the Civic Federation of ladles,
whose main object after all was to
have a clean town. With the dirt
parks It Is impossible to keep the placo
clean.
In his talk before tho council, Mr.
Thos. It. Ayer said that when he and
a delegation of tho people on Poplar
street appeared before the mayor In
the morning to ask him to suspend
the work of plowing up the park until
they could get before council at night,
ho left the mayor under the Impression
that he was acting from a selfish mo
tive. ha being a tenant on that street.
To satisfy the mayor that It was not
a selfish Idea, he and some friends
took the petition they had prepared,
and went down Cotton avenue to
Cherry, down Cherry to Third, and up
and down Third, and of all the mer
chants on those streets they found only
two who refused to sign the petition
and who were In favor of grassing the
parks and closing them up. This
showed that the people other than
those on Poplar street wanted the parka
to remain as they were, open to the
farmer.
In his talk before the council. Mr.
(Ben L. Jones said that tne cost of
putting a cement, or concrete surfacing
on the parks would be about $4,200.

Befors business opened up yesterday
morning, tha people Interested In Pop
lar atreet were on that street in
groups, discussing the action before
the mayor and council on Tuesday
! night.
It eeemed that the auggeetlon made
by Mr. Henry Home met with the
most famr. This waa remove the curbing
marking the parks and to pave the en
tire street, from sidewalk to sidewalk,
in Belgian blocks aa the roadways are
now paved.
•Speaking of beautiful green grass
lawns." said Capt. Bob Haslehurst.
"tha view that would meet the gate of
the man tn the bue coming up from the
union depot would be on# that he
would not see In any other city In the
world—a wide street, wider than any
other city atreet all filled with cotton,
the staple of the country, and hun-
drede of country wagons, showing whst
a market Macon Is. It would present
a picture of active trade that would be
the moat pleasing sight a man would
care to see."
I data’t care what they pave It In,
Belgian blocks or cement. )u*t so they
don't five ua any gmss. The farmer
would be in a bad fix then sure enough.
Too much grass In the field and too
much grass In the town." This la the
way Mr..Jim Hicks. Jr., expressed it.
Others agreed that th* real solution
of the whole problem waa to do away
with the parks and pave the atreet.
This street is one hundred and. eighty
feet wide, from Fourth street to Sec
ond. the market building choking up
the atreet from Second to First
"Several years ago I wanted this
street open for the farmers, and I pro
posed then that tha name should be
changed to Market atreet,”. said Al
derman Sam Meyer
"I want to see the atreet planted In
something.** said Mr. Nat Wlnshlp.
"planted In anything. If It can't be
planted with grass, then plant It with
Belxlan blocks. Anything to get It
planted.”

At any rate, the Idea of paving the
entire street in blocks, doing away with
the restrictions as to parks. Is growing
and growing with those who are think-
Ing about th* matter, and it may be
possible that when the actual figures
of paving are made up, that a petition
very strong will be presented to coun
