bA-The Town Board OF Jasper
did the right thing in passing u res
olution for improving Main and 9th
streets. Under it there will be no
u isightly s foot hump. But the
resolution should be enlarged so a.
to include estimates for sewers.
And then these streets should be
bricked. Quite number of brick
cutters on them have been laid 5 or
6 years, and some OF them have
stood as hard usage as the streets,
and are yet in good condition, and
were made of Hochgesang's brick,
too. 1t would pay the town to i'm
prove the square that way, anyhow.

favor; but in Vincennes it failed to
carry. Politics got mixed in il
there. We are told the company
and capitalists backing it are well
satisfied, and will build the road.
but it may go to Sullivan, for the
coal fields there instead Of TO Vim

asks for it, before building there.
Dubois county people all hope that
it is a "go," and that construction
will begin soon, and be pushed
