STREET IMPROVEMENT BOND
ISSUE

When the finance committee OF the
city council meets Monday. bids Will
be opened for 100000 worth OF per
mancnt street Improvement bonds, the
issuance OF which has been authorized
by the Legislature and approved by
the voters of the city. There seems
to be every reason to believe that
several acceptable offers will be MADE
for the bonds. therefore 1t Is more
than likely that the sale will be con-
summated Immediately after the Oc-
tober meeting OF tho board OF alder
men,
The tfme has come for the people
to be giving some thought TO the
matter of how the money derived from
the sale of the bonds shall be spent.
II anything is to- be accomplished be-
fore winter weather sets In. no time
Is to be lost.
Tho net authorizing the bond Issue
provides that the money shall be d.
vided between the four wards OF the
W. "iu 'h't hu N"tu W. W icNciNN
more than $4,000 as its share. This
means that each ward Is TO have n
fair share of street improvements.
When tho matter of issuing bonds
was decided upon year or more ago,
the members of both branches of the
council agreed among themselves that
the members representing the respect
I've wards should be allowed to pass
upon the question of how the money
allotted to their respective territory
should be spent. II the people of the
Third ward want macadam, curbing
and gutterng, as has been stated, they
will have macadam. curbing and gut
terlng; II the Fourth ward residents
desire to have Huntington avenue
paved from Forty-soventh street to
the city limits, Huntington avenue Will
be paved, and likewise. the First and
Second ward people will be given just
what they want.
Now our councilmen and aldermen
nrc elected to carry ont the wishes OF
their constituents. and this most of
them try their best TO do upon all
occasions. II is necessary, however,
for the representatives to know what
the people want, and citizens should
not wait until after the council mas
acted before making known their de-
sires
If you think certain kind of paving
should be used In certain place In
your ward. tell your representative
about it, Do not wait until the coun.
ciimen have expressed what they be-
lieye TO be the choice of their con
s'ituents in the matter. and then go
around saving that the city fathers
are lot OF numbskulls who pay no
attention to the wishes of the public.
