OUR EXPENSE OF
PAVING NOT SO
VERY EXPENSIVE

At a joint meeting of the Board of Trade, and bus-
men, held at the council rooms Wednesday evening
at 800 o'clock good number present and the ques
on at ISSUE the paving of Vienna and Mill streets,
thoroughly discussed by those present. The sentiment
being unanimous in favor of paving The rate of
ment Of the business section of these two streets will be
nearly 1870 of the present valuation.
The present total assessed valuation of the village is
$381 525.
The assessed valuation of property the streets to
be paved is $286,00O
The cost per year 81 900 valuation would be $500
a total of $4,000 for the five years.
For example, J. K Wait with an assessed valuation
of $500 would pay for paving tax of $12O per year.
Harvey Coffin assessed valuation of 5000 pays
80 cents per year total of 400 for five years.
Clio State Bank with an assessed valuation of $685.
900 would pay 500 per year paving tax.
The labor the construction of the pavement will be
performed by citizens This amounts to enough
worth mention.
The amount of money necessary to raise to pay the
funds will not be as much raised in 1872.
The increase in trade the increase of the valuation OF
all property the betterment of sanitary conditions and
better appearance these points alone argue enough

matter of improvements by and work together

STATE WIDE ISSUE
FOR PROHIBITION
Great Public Hearing to be on
at Lansing, Wednesday
March 5th.
BOTH SIDES ARE TO Be HEARD

Detroit, Mich. Feb. "a, Over 25,
600 letters, petitions and appeals have
gone forth from the state headquarters
of the AntiSaloon League here dur
ing the past few days in behalf of the
resolutions before the legislature pro-
viding for the submission to the people
of a constitutional amendment pro-
hibiting the liquor traffic in Michigan.
The moral, temperance, and civic
leaders in every community of the
state have been reached with this dry
deluge, including all of the ministers of
the state, the local officials of the
w. C. 7. u, the Grange and others.
A great public hearing, on the amend
ment will be held on the fifth of March,
at 7:30 p. m. in the House of Repre-
sentatives' chamber at Lansing. At
that time the committees of both houses
having the resolutions in charge will
listen to the ''drys" and the "wets"
each an hour and half An oratorical
conflict such as Michigan has seldom
seen is promised. Such noted orators
as John G. Wooley, Mrs. Florence Rich
ards, president of the Ohio w. C. T. u,
and others will speak for the amend
ment. And it is expected that the
liquor interests will have the best men
they can secure between the oceans to
present their side of the case. The
prohibition forces will storm the Capt.
tol city on that day in an all-day pro-
gram, wearing white badges "For the
amendment" Hundreds of leading
men and women from all over the state
will attend this hearing.
In addition day has been set apart
for great concerted discussion"
throughout the churches of the state
This will occur Sunday, March 9th. On
this day it is expected that the pastors
of the state will thunder forth a united
appeal for the Prohibition amendment
that will stir the old state through and
through
In the appeals that have gone forth to
the ministers, w. C. T. u. and the
Grange, State Superintendent j. F.
Burke, of the League speaks as follows:
"Now is the time pre- eminent for every
soul in Michigan to bond all energy to
the work at hand. We have canvassed
the situation thoroughly and we feel
safe in predicting that with the many
friends we have in the legislature, the
doubtful men in districts where our
friends are numerous, the morals of
the victorious tidings from congress of
the enactment of the Interstate liquor
shipment bill-with all this, if we do
our part faithfully, there will be such
pressure brought from every section Of
the state that the senators and repre-
sentatives will be glad to pass this
resolution.

BRICK HOUSE IS
SENT BY MAIL
Thomas diff Sends Six Bricks
From Clio by Parcel
Post.

Mr.. Thos. diff of this village sent
by Parcel Post Monday morning brick
of local manufacture to be used in bu-
ilding brick house at the Colisum
Chicago during the Clay Products Exp
osition which is to be held Feb. Goth to
March 8th. These bricks will be six
of 25, 900 sent by parcel post from every
brick plant in the United States to be
used in the constructions Of this house,
which will be given away and reerected
after the exposition.
The idea was originated to test the
merits of the Parcel Post system and it
is certainly anovel one. A record will
be kept of each brick from the time it
is mailed until it is delivered in Chi
cago in order to see how speedily Un
Gle Sam can deliver a brick house by
mail.
1t is probable that Uncle Sans mail
carriers will not be overly enthusiastic
for this method of delivery of a brick
house. Other mail carriers will watch
the experiment with interest and fear
and trembling. While the brick fire
proof home is becoming more and more
popular because of it's permanency, &C.
onomy and superorty, it is not probable
that they will be delivered by mail to
alarming extent. At any rate Thos
diff will have six brick in the first
brick house ever sent by mail.
