The Wheeling daily register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1864-1878, 1874-07-18

In obedience to popular vote anthor-
izing the issue of 100000 worth Of city
bonds for the purpose of paving several
of our principal thoroughfares, the Sec
ond Branch of Council last night
passed an appropriate ordinance.
There seems to be an impress
sion that the ordinance will be
defeated when it comes before the other
branch of Council, but why this fate
should overtake it when more than three
ffths of the voters voting at Especial
election held to ascertain the sense
of the people ia relation to
the matter have recorded their wishes in
its favor, is one of those things that will
excite inquiry and perhaps provoke un-
pleasant remark Ths city needs good
streets. There is nothing that is more
complained of in winter than the condi-
tion of the thoroughfares which this
ordinance propOsesto pave. 1.-THE Coun-
ell proposes to initiate the Arkansas man
who did not repair his roof in winter be-
cause it was then too wet, nor in summer
because it was not then needed, it is time
that the people were informed of the
fact. If the paving is to be done at all
it should be done ut once.
