TO PRESERVE CURLS

APPROVE OF PAV|ao
THERE is NO OPPOSIr ,., rn
THE PROPOSITIO.
On Every Hand There 4,
sions of Approval OF the ]
to Pave Main Street. 1t
Necessity and the Soonej
gun the Better.

1t ls most gratifying to :r.- ...
expressions of approval of u..r
osition to pave Main stree s....
every one says that it shou. 81. a,,..
and the ones who are mos, .A ..-..,
or II are the ones who are our largest
taxpayers. Most of those who have
expressed themselves look uopn the
paving as a necessity and not a lux
ury. The needs of the city demand
that we have better Main street.
Some who have expressed them
selves wonder why the matter was
not taken up sooner. Sumter is class
ed with the most progressive cities in
the State, and the fact that other
towns Of less Importance than Sumter
have paved their streets is looked up-
on by them as an evidence that Sum-
ter is not keeping up. It is true that
Sumter is progressive, and deserves
the reputation she has. 1t is certain
however, that if she maintains that
reputation she must keep on ham,
mering away on public Improvements.
The objection to paving has been ad-
vanced that Sumter is now putting in
gas plant and paving Main street
would be out Of the question, for it
would have to be taken up to make
room for the gas pipes. This need
bother no one. 1t will be some time
before the work on paving can begin.
There is lots to be done before actual
work can be commenced. This is mere
ly the suggestion that we pave. No
steps have been taken yet to g.r the
street paved. Things of this kind go
slowly, and the gas people will have
ample time to get their piping down
before the paving will interfere.
The discussion Of paving has
brought about discussion Of the ma
