ONUSOAAWOOu Ids Tile T0puCdClOI
abroad of being one of the best
TOWNS in central Idaho and {
town with a very bright future
1t has the necessary rich sur
rounding country-it occupies
the strategical geographical posi-.
tion-and the only thing thai
can keep it from becoming &
furnishing little city, or car
make it such a city, is it's citizen
ship. No town, no matter how
we'll located, can succeed unless
its citizens pull together in har-
mony and do not stand in their
own light in the matter of public
improvements. The town that
makes the most rapid progress
and that proves attractive to the
outside investor or the homeseek-
er is the town that pushes public
improvements to the highest pos
sible point of development.
Cottonwood has just witnessed
the realization of one much need
ed public improvement in the
completion of its water system.
1t has realized others in the Sc
curing of railway transportation
and an electric lighting system
but the good work has only com
menced. Two other very i'm
portant public Improvements
which should be made here in
the near future are the installa-
ton of sewer system through
the main part of town and the
paving of our two principal bust
ness streets. The first named
is the most impor-
tant and necessary as it effects
directly the good health of every
citizen of our town. Cottonwood
has now reached a size when a
sewer system has become prac-
tically an absolute necessity and
the longer we go without it the
more danger we run in the way
of having epidemics of disease
here. We cannot afford to run
such risks when the lives of our
citizens are at stake and we firm
ly believe that our citizens should
vote bond next spring for the
installation of adequate sewer
mains along the creek through
town and along King street so
that the citizens of each section
of town can connect up to these
mains as rapidly as possible.
Such a system would cost no
great sum of money and we be-
lieve money can be spent in no
better way than by being used
to safeguard the health of our
people.
In regard to paving our streers,
hat is matter for the property
owners to decide as they are the
persons who will be called upon
o stand the burden of this ex-
oense. However, we wish to
'ay that several of our business
men are now in favor of such
move and that in other towns
where such improvements have
)een made the advance in prop
.rty values has more than offset
he cost of paving and that the
worst kicker before the improve
nent was made could not be in
luced afterward to go back to
he old conditions. Caldwell, in
outh Idaho, is now paving her !
treets and finds the cost to be ,
z. SO per lineal foot on fifty foot
treets, which would amount to d
bout $265 a lot. This cost is
lot excessive and we believe that I
f our streets were once paved
he increase in property values
nd the additional prestige it
