Mr, Emanuel i* a business man of unusual ability, and that he has made a success of bis own aft'jirs, only shows,' that he will do the same way with the city’s. He is for a reduction in taxation, batter 'streets, reduction of indebtedness, and, last, but not least, the enforcement of the aewerags ordinance. This is the most important of any ordinance of the pity of Bruns wick, inasmuch as it deals with the health of our Citizens. Heretofore, this law has been gross ly violated, and for the purpose of getting the sentiment of the new mayor a Tums-Cali. representative in terviewed him. Among other things, he said: “Yes. {will enforce the iewzra** ordinance. I think it nothing let* than criminal negligence that ea many property owners have been allowed to Ignore this very Important measure. The law od this lubjeot is very plain, and it muit be obeyed.
