NOW FOR BETTER STREETS.
Purchase of Steam Roller the Begin
ming of the Good Work.

ming OF the OOOU w DIX.
Last Saturday Mayor Rack, Aid.
Wertheimer, Mulberger, Skinner and
Mayer, composing the special commit
tee OF the common council appointed
to purchase a road roller, closed a
contract with a representative of the
o. S. Kelly company, Springfield, O.,
for fOurteen-tOn steam road roller of
the best make, to be delivered here
within ten days after the approval of
the contract by the common council.
AS will be seen by reference to last
nights council proceedings the con-
tract was approved and it is expected
that our city will shortly be in pos
session of this very needful appurte-
nance to the betterment of our thor
oughfares.
In deciding upon this purchase the
committee have done what they con-
sidered best. They thoroughly inves-
tigated the matter, inspected different
machines and secured the opinions of
expert mechanics. The Kelly was
conceded to be the best and most COM
account of it's low price-$2, 000-the
Russell machine was also considered
favorably, but the Kelly people finally
came down in their terms to reason
able amount, and as they have the
best machine it was ultimately select
ed. We are informed that the COM
mittee made an excellent purchase,
paying much less for the Kelly than
other places have, but the price will
not be stated for the present.
The REPUBLICAN thinks the council
has moved properly in this matter.
There is nothing like making a start
in the Improvement of our streets, and
surely the possession of a road roller
will hasten it, Some objections have
been made to the purchase on the
ground that it is putting the cart be-
fore the horse, inasmuch as we have
no stone-crusher nor material to put
on the streets. Even so, the roller
will be of considerable benefit in
smoothing down streets and if nothing
permanent is undertaken this year we
hope to see it inaugurated next year,
at the latest.

Apply for New License.

The trustees of the estate of the
late John w. Cole have filed petition
in the county court for a new license
to sell the Clyman street homestead,
to pay debts and costs of administra-
ton. The new license cites that the
proceeds are to be invested in interest
bearing securities and a portion to be
used for making permanent improve
ments on the store building in the
shape of a water system, etc. 1t is al
legged in the petition that the home
stead is expensive to hold and does
not bring fair return on the invest
ment.
