The TRUE NoRTHERNER advises the
village authorities of Paw Paw to take
some of the money from the well filled
treasury and eXpend it on the streets of
that village. This is sound advice, and
such Il movement would prove "a good
investment. A few years ago the city
of Dowagiac began to grade and gravel
her streets and build her sidewalks from
the city treasury. At first there was
much complaint, but time has proven
the wisdom of this course Ten years
have made great changes in this city in
this respect. We now have the finest
streets and sidewalks of any city of its
size in the state. The work has been
accomplished without being burden
to the taxpayers, and the actual value
of property in this city has been greatly
increased by these Improvements. They
have paid for themselves many times
over in the increased value of property
here. -DOUdqiac Republican,
