Street IMPROVEMENTS
ARE BEING AGITATED.
WIDENING on EAST THIRD AND
PAVING OF EAST FOURTH TO
COM soon.

Several paving propositions IN the
way OF street improvements are in
the air, and Il is probable that the
meeting of the city commission to-
morrow morning win he given over
for the most part to a hearing OF
these propositions,
There is a movement on foot to
widen East Third from Cincinnati
Avenue 20 the Midland Valley tracks.
EIGHTY feet is the width to which the
property owners along the street wish

at u meetiHg last week and asked for
the widening of the street
this movement on the part of the
property owners 10 widen Third street
is viewed with great significance. 1t
means that these men who have prop
crty on East Third street or are other
wise interested alc bent upon max
ing Third stree; one Of the really
principal thorough OF Tulsa
when the ten-stoty hotel at Cincin-
natl and Third and the numerous
smaller buildings have been complet-
ed the proposition will be well under
headway. Third street Is wide enough
from Main to Cincinnati, but beyond
that point 1t is rather narrow for
Irincipal street
A movement IN street improve
ment is the paving of East Fourth
street from Main to the Midland
Valley or to Elgn avenue. Since
the erection Of the Pioneer building
at Fourth and Boston business has
been on the increase on Fourth
street and it is now being agltated
TO pave that street on divers oc-
casIons have committees appeared be
fore tho city commission asking for
the pavement OF the street. II is
probable that petitions bearing the
