The foregoing figures briefly tell
the story of the marvellous strides of
progress being made in the city of
Salem this season-in dollars and
cents, tell story of the vast i'm
provements which are underway, and
which will be completed before the
season is at an end-tell story of
progress of which the people of the
city may we'll feel proud, and which
rivals, it it does not surpass, that of
any city of like size anywhere.
The figures, as will be seen at a
glance, cover both street and sewer
work. They include work which is in
the course of construction, and con-
tracts that are certain to be awarded
but none about which there hinges
an uncertainty. While they convey a
fair idea of the vast improvements
underway, a better one can be Sc.
cured when the streets and the cost
for each, and the sewer system ant
the cost for each are considered sep
arately and briefly summed up are az
