For with Possibility of More.
Within the next six months large
sum of money will be expended by the
town council and citizens OF Reynolds
vile borough in paving portions OF
some of the most used streets and
alleys of the borough. At the last
meeting of council an ordinance was
passed, and has received the signature
OF Burgess S. NJ, McCreight authorizing
the grading, paving and curbing of
Swamp alley from the west side Of
Grant street to the east side OF Gordon
alley. This is the alley running
between the Peoples National bank and
Reynoldsville Hardware building on
one side OF Main street, and between
the National hotel and Syndicate build
ing on the other, and on 1t is located
the municipal building. Council has
already passed the ordinances provid-
ing for the paving of Jackson street
from the end of the present paving at
Seventh street down to Fifth street.
and ordinances are being prepared, and
will be put through as soon as possible,
which will provide for the paving Of
that part of Fifth street between Main
and Jackson streets and the section OF
Seventh street connecting Main and
Jackson streets All Of these highways
are heavily used and their improvement
is a practical necessity,
1t is through no fault of the local
officials that the proposed paving of
East Main street has been delayed.
They had everything ready to push the
work to completion, but the department
a. Harrisburg, through which comes
the bulk of the appropriation, seems to
b. in a comatose condition just now and
insinuations of graft, Incompetence and
jobbery are rather numerous. But 1t
is possible that the appropriation may
even yet be received ir time to allow
some work to be done before next
winter.
