Tie macadam, clay and cobble
stones of our streets are relics of a
past spirit Of improvement and form
a hindrance to tue growth and pros
perity of our city. There is a remedy
for this. Improved modern pave
ments or Belgian block, concrete, or
brick would bring us up to the stan
dard of modern Improvements. The
city cannot afford this = 55;a5 the city
is part Of tie county, as the tax
-feanzes when he visits the
SherifI's Office. We pay for the re-
pair and maintenance of hundreds of
miles of county roads, and receive
nothing in return therefor. The city
is the county seat and pays large
proportion of all county taxes. Mar
tnsburg Is therefore justly entitled
to a great consideration IN the dis
bursementof this fund Would there
be anything unfair in asking the
county to assume a just proportion
of the cost of paving King and
Queen and portions of other streets
bordering on Queen street. Let our
people impress upon the County
Court the necessity of this step for
the benefit of the farmer and city
taxpayer, and we think some favor
able action will be taken.
