fAtlSG AND SIDEWALKS.
There is one matter of importance to which
invite your special attention and that is the
paving of streets and laying of sidewalks.
The mayor of Savannah, Ga, in his last mes
sage to the city council, states that he has pur-
chased the so-called Belgian pavement blocks
four by eight inches on the face in New York
for S19. so per Thousand, and that laid: down
on the streets Of Savannah they will not cost
more than 81. Is per square yard. This is less
than We pay for pine blocks.
There is near Sauk Rapids about sixty miles
from Saint Paul vast quantities of granite
When this stone can besprepared as cheaply as
| it is done in New Yorkwe can have permanent
granite pavements at very little more cost than
our wooden blocks are costing.
The sooner we can introduce brick for our
sidewalks on business streets the better.
/ have always been in favor of macadamizing
our streets. Our lime stone would do we'll for
foundation. and there is an unlimited supply
of trap rock near Taylors Falls, which could
be brought here at small expense in barges.
This would make excellent top dressing, and
the streets would be easily repaired
To make q good street in this way steam

The Board of Public Works which is one of
the most important branches of our city gov
ernment has had large amount of business
before it during the past year. The work
which is being done by this body is Indicative
of returning business activity, and it gives me
pleasure to commend the care and watchfulness
which governs it's deliberations. The follow

Ovr sewerage system is of the greatest inn
portance. AS our city increases in magnitude,
our continued good health will depend greatly
upon having good sewers. And while am
opposed to all needless expense, am in favor
of building sewers whenever asked for by the
property owners, or wherever demanded to
protect the health OF the ncighborhood.

The following proclamation was issued by
President Hayes on the Sd inst:
At no recurrence of the season which the
devout habits of religious people has made
the occasion for giving thanks to the AL
mighty God and humbly invoking his con.
tinued favor, has the material prosperity
enjoyed by our whole country been more
conspicuous, more manifold or more uni
versal. During the year, also, unbroken
peace with all foreign nations, the general
prevalence of domestic tranquility, the SUI
premacy and security of the great institu-
tons of civil and religious freedom have
gladdened the hearts of our people and con-
trmed their attachment to their govern
ment, which the wisdom and courage of our
ancestors so fifty framed and the wisdom
and courage of their descendants so firmly
main attained to be the habitation of liberty
and justice to successive generations.
Now therefore, /, Rutherford B. Hayes,
president of the United States, do appoint
Thursday, the 9th day of November, in
slant, as day of national thanksgiving and
prayer and l earnestly recommend that
withdrawing themselves from 81 cular cares
and labors, the people of the United States
do meet together on that day in their respect
i've places OF worship, there to give thanks
to Almighty God for his mercies, and to
devoutly beseech their continuance.
In witness whereof, have hereunto set
my hand and caused the seal of the United
States to be affixed.
Done at the city of Washington, this Sd
day of November, in the year of our Lord,
one thousand eight hundred and seventy
nine, and of the independence Of the United
States the one hundred and fourth.
