PROTEST AT THE
MONTANA PAVING
Property Owners say They Will Not
Pay Further Assessments for
Such stuff as Is Down.


Property owners on the Alta Vista
end of Montana street are preparing
formal protest to the city council
against the paving of Montana from
Cotton to Piedras street.
These property owners who must pay
the freight on the paving work, claim
that il has become rough road and
unsatisfactory, although it has been
laid but few months.
The city viii be notified that the
property owners will not pay their
paving assessments until the street IS
brought up to specifications A num-
Der of the property owners are at WORK
on the protest and will probably file
it at the next council meeting Thurs
day.
The protesting property owners call
attention to the Magoffin avenue paw
ing from Cotton to Alameda street
through the Cotton addition. This is
as fun of humps as herd of camels.
The owners Of property along. this
street paid cash for the paving and
have been unable to get any recourse.
although the paving has been in bad
repair for at least 20 of the "a months
that it has been down. Alderman
Blumenthal says that the paving com
pany has an irOnbOund bond with d
bonding company and can be made TO
bring the work up to the specifications.
but so far as known, no steps have
been taken to force it to do so. Mean
time, the years are going by and the
people are riding over the bumps.
Followed City's Specifications.
The Southwestern Paving company
has a force OF men at work making
repairs on Montana street, but as fast
as one stretch of the pavement is re-
placed, another section is broken up
just as badly. The newly laid pave
ment appears TO be satisfactory, how
ever, so far.
It is explained that the defect in
the Montana street pavement is due
to the fact that the binder was made
of California asphalt instead of Texas
asphalt, and that its use was not really
the fault of the paving company, as the
cItyis specifications required the Cali
fOrnia asphalt, which cost the paving
company even more than the Texas as

Already thousands of sheep have

driven on to the shearing pens

feed certain. A rain two weeks ago
