MACADAM ON

Are members of the street commit

That is the question being asked by
those property owners who petitioned
the council last spring for street inn

now called upon to pay the assessments
levied for the payment of such work.

This move came after a series Of
meetings and was somewhat Of a sar-

law one third of the voters of the
community are needed to sign the
petition. This means that the names
of about 500 qualified electors are
required in this city
That the canvass for names is q
systematic one is shown by the fact
that the city has been divided into

has been assigned to each. The petit

being attached they would not state
