Thepaving excitement still continues
brisk. West side merchants say they
have been wanting to pave for year
or so, the south block west of the
square having talked the matter over
before. Practically all were in favor
of it year ago and probably are now.
In case that block paved the north
would most likely follow suit, 1t be-
gins to look as if the paving would ex-
tend along two sides of the square if
not all the way around. Then with
the Thompson block talking it strong
~ and A. L. Taylor declaring If it
comes down near him he thinks he will
have a little, there may be good
start for better streets off the square.
