A TALE OF TWO CITIES,

The Shreveport Times is working
to make that city pave its streets
1t draws a comparison between
Waco and its own city. What is
said of Shreveport can De said of
Texarkana. when the comparison
has reference to streets.
Here is what the Times has to
say:
Waco is situated on the Brazos
river in the central part of Texas,
and its population is about 22 900,
has quite a number of artesian
wells, paved streets, three good fire
companies, three lines of street
railway and is not as old a city as
Shreveport.
shreveport has a population of
$4,000, is situated on the Red river,
having direct communication with
New Orleans, the water being at
stage ten months out of twelve suf-
icient to run large steamers to and
from that city; has two efficient fire
companies, good supply OF water,
five railroads and not a street in
the whole town that is paved
"Wacos streets are paved with
bois dare blocks, and they last for
eight or ten years Shrevepnrt's
streets are paved with gravel,
which lasts as long as the good
weather prevails, but as soon as a
rainy spell sets in the streets are in
| 4 terrible condition. Now that an
ERA of prosperity is dawning upon
our city, why not let US have paved
streets and good sidewalks? And
when the many strangers who are
arriving every day are attracted
by -uch 81 hts, they will be favora-
o'y Impressed with our coming great
city Of north louisiana
We wish to add that Waco. be-
des the blocked streets, which are
mlnv, has miles of street laid IN
cobhle stones that are as hard ard
as smooth as a floor. Besides this,
all of its sidewalks are laid with
concrete, and its creeks, and there
are several Of them, are bridged
with stone, brick aud iron, and the
Brazos river is spanned with a mag
nifcent suspension bridge. 1t has
a fine city hall and many artesian
wells, and the town shows more en-
terprise than any city in Texas,
of course we do not expect TO see
all of our streets paved like Waco's,
but we shall insist that Broad
Street, State Line Avenue, and
State Street rec Give attention.
IN the mean time, we hope the
press of Shreveport will keep up its
paved street fight until it accom-
plishes for its city what it has set
out to do
