Advantages of Street Paving !
y, Small Cities. A

The industrial and social effects o
paving city are of great Importance
Paving the streets to some extent re-
duces the price of the material hauled
over them. On a well-paved street the
traction may be perhaps but one-slx.
tenth of that on a dirt road, and in
case ofsbulky material, such as coal
where the cost of local delivery Is a
considerable item, the saving due to
tNe larger loads which may be hauled
Is reflected In the retail price. 1t is,
however. from a sanitary point of
view the paved streets are most desir-
able. Smooth, clean streets are al
most necessary to the health of the
community. The prevention Of the ac-
cumulatIon of filth and the cores
pondlng decrease in disease Is one of
the chief benefits of paving. When a
city Is paved with brick and its sew
ers are laid with the same material
the streets may oe cleaned with a
stream of water from fire hose with
out fear of the sand cutting either
pavement or sewers. "A small gang OF
men may us clean large area in a
short time Attractive streets serve
to draw trade, and of two similarly
situated towns, one paved and the 9TH
er unpaved, the former will have the
advantage Well-paved streets stimu-
late municipal interests and civic
pride When e people have paid
FIR having their streets put in good
condition, they feel an interest in
keeping them so
The impetus given to Ie social life
OF town by the paving of its streets
is marked. fhe. people go about more
and become better acquainted. The
clean, smooth streets tempt the pedes-
trlan, the bicyclist, and the driver
alike They make 1T possible to hold
carnivals and similar outdoor festivl-
ties. American Monthly Review OF

NEW ELECTRIC PLANT

l.
Happening the other day at Archi-
tect Foreman's Office, we saw the plang
for the new electric power house and
city electric lighting plant, and were
very much interested, as we'll as
agreeably surprised, at the fine appear
anec o tthe building. The Council de-
serves a great deal OF creditor design
ing so commodious structure as this
will no doubt be. How any one can
object to the erection OF so very COM
mendable building is more than we
can see.
These plans ought to be displayed in
some front window or store front, SO
that people can see what is proposed.
II this Is done we are sure all who
shall see the plans will say all right,
let II be built as soon as possible.
The front door Is in the corner and
is ornamental. 1t looks directly across
dlagonally to the building owned by
Councilman Wood There Is another
front entrance which leads to the stair
going up to the second story The
front OF the building up stairs and
down will be for Offices and hall ways,
water closets and other convenIences.
The Offices will be for rent and will
no doubt net the city a nice income
and can thus be rented until such time
as ny growth the city shall need all
the room for the electric plant itself
The electric plant itself will be on
the second floor back. and will be
above eny ordinary high water In
case the river should rise higher thar
the machinery floor the whole city
would at the same time be swamped
and there could be no electric lights
because they would be dangerous tC

reaches such heights. Then there are

location places the electric, power
nearly In the center OF the arc dfstri
button and on convenient Goa
switch, which in case OF transfer L
coal for fusi, which will happen at ne
very distant day. the city will thus
save in teaming bills alone the cost Of
che building in a few years. Alto
gether it is a very commendable move
and we hope soon to see the handsome
structure arise where now there are
nothing but shanties.

Hanna will Keep Place.

This thing of denying stories of Mr.
ttanna's retirement from the Chair
manship of the Republican National
committee is getting rather tiresome.
IL seems necessary, however, to do it
once more, in view of the telegram
from Milwaukee, which says Mr.. Hen
ry C. Payne is in training for success
sion to Mr.. Hanna. Fortunately it
happens, too, that in the present case
1t is possible to publish the first au-
thoritive statement, thus far made,
at least as concerning the question of
RIr. Hanna retaining the Chairman
snip during the next Presidential
campaign. This statement comes from
Colonel Dick, who is Secretary of the
National Committee, and, as Is we'll
known, has otherwise close relations
with Senator Hanna. Asked about the
latest story, Colonel Dick said: "Mr.
Hanna made his position plain before
leaving Cleveland for his European
trip by announcing that he would re-
main Chairman. and as such would
call the next National convention to
order. When that convention meets a
new National Committee will be nam
ed 1t will be the duty of that com
mittee to select a Chairman for the
ensuing term of four years. That
Craftsmanship Is an honor and re-
sponsibility not to be sought, but at
the same time 1t Is duty not TO be
shirked, II ones service is demanded
by party welfare, as 1t appears in the
judgment OF the National Committee,
1 believe the next National Republican
Convention will ask Mr.. Hanna to act
as Chairman, and believe he will not
decline. In that case, no better Chair
man could be found"-Commerclal

Many who attended the Hagenow
concert were greatly annoyed by the
antics of the boys who we're stealing e
ride'' at the windows. These boys
should be content with cheating the

management that some thin cloth
screens, or better still Il policeman on

nuisance.
