That Eye-8ore.

The Herald has called att ntion several times to the dump at the corner of Columbia avenue and Jefferson street. It is indeed time that dty council had carried out their reported intention to hare the place deared up and of preventing any further disposal of garbage and litter at that place. Complaints still continue to come from -ottagers on Columbia avenue and from others who live In the section, that there U no cessation of the dumping cf the trash of the dty at that point. It is a well known fact that the Board ol Health has maintained for several years a public dumping ground on Elmira street which is well outside the toneof inhabiUuU and where it would take but a few minute* longer for each garbage man to take his load ol tra«b. Cape May already has too many eye sores along public and private lines to admit of any increase of such places. It would take about the time of two or three men, one day, to dean op all this trash and the people see no reason why council should not have it done. *

It was agreed by the members of the committee who were in control of the situation that there should be^ do reference to either gold or silver, and after hours of wind Jamming and fervid oratory It was decided to ignore the money plank entirely.
