Although il is early in the season,
many are having cement sidewalks
and curb and other cement work
done now. Others will have their
work done little later. Cement

It appears that the Mankato Trac-
street car line into North Mankato
this year. 1t is as well. for to have
a water works system and street
car line put in at the same time
would be too much. The streets
would be taken up entirely, leaving
no room for traffic. SO let's have one

North Mankato would be paying
proposition there is no doubt. There
is no question about it. Why has
the line not been extended before
this? 1t is said that there are Man
kato citizens who are actually fear
full that North Mankato would be
benefited too greatly. There is no
doubt that that fear is founded on
good reasons, for it would be greatly
benefited, but the Traction company
must necessarily look to its own in
terests and eventually extend its
lines to North Mankato In the
meantime the village will continue
