PAVE OUR STREETS.
Bond the Borough for the Amount
Vote on II This Fall

1t Is well known to our people In
general that Main and Jackson streets
should be paved with brick or some
other substantial paving material. 1t
seems to us that there Is no chance for
argument on this point. The present
condition OF Main street and the condi-
tlon OF Jackson street In spring and
fall-when the mud is hub deep settles
the fact without argument.
How shall the money be raised TO
pave the streets, is the important
question ? At present we expend about
$4,000 per annum on our streets, and
how much good does IL accomplish :?
Why not bond the borough for $50, 900.
That amount would be sufficient TO pave
Main and jackson streets. The bonds
could be given long life, II necessary,
and noated at per cent, which would
be 81, 200 a year, less than the amount
thrown away on these two streets every
year. The taxation would not neces-
sarlly be increased much, II any.
In view OF the fact that Main street
must have attention not later than next
spring, why not vote at the fall cleo
tlon this year on bonding the borough
for $50, 900, or more, for street paving ?
II we wait until next spring then by
the time everything would be ready for
the work of paving it would be too late
to begin the work that year, and con-
siderable money would have to be spent
on repairing Main street, which would
be waste of money. II the question is
voted on this fall and carries-which
there is little doubt about-everything
could be arranged to begin the work
next spring. Why delay ? Let us have
the vote in November.
