Seattle Wash, Dec 20, 1893 To the Mayor and Council of the City of Seattle Gentlemen:- We the undersigned residents of the City of Seattle, respectfully but earnestly remonstrate against the adoption by your honorable body, of any plan for constructing the proposed sewer on Front and Commercial Streets, that will require the cessation of operationof the Front Street Cable Company's cars on said streets. In our opinion, such stoppage would be an injustice to the owners of said car line, to its patrons (many of whomhave no other convenient means of reaching the business part of the City), and to those engaged in business on Front and Commercial streets.
