TO PAVE BUSINESS STREETS
Popular Movement Among BUSINESS
Mem

A large number of the property
owners of the business district Of
Blackfoot are agitating the question
of organizing a pavement district of
18 or 20 blocks for the purpose Of
paving the streets. The territory
designated includes Main street west
of the railroad tracks from the cleo
trio sub-station north to the Red
Cross garage, a distance of five
blocks; Taylor street from the Mac
kay tracks north five blokcs; Bridge
street from Main street west several
blocks; and parts of Pacific, Idaho
and Alice.
The kind of paving is yet to be
determined, and it will require some
months to perform the legal steps to
get ready for construction work The
cost of it will have to be paid by
the property owners pro ratio to their
front-foot holdings. The intersec-
tions of streets will be paid by the
city government and taxed to the
peope at large.

COUNTY COMMISSIONERS MET

The commissioners were in session
Monday and Tuesday and allowed a
petition for a herd district at Spring
field, and terminated the contract
with The Phelps Construction COM
pany for work on the state highway
through this county. The Ft. Hall
macadam road has some holes in 1t
where the travel has worn 1t through
to the sand, and the state highway
commission reports that there are
no funds with which to repair 1t, al
though they are going to send an
engineer to look at it. 1t is said
that If travellers would only quit fol-
lowing the slight ruts and let the
wear come on differently arts Of the
roadbed that would solve the trouble
for a few years but they have the
habit Of following the rut or groove.

THE CITY BUSINESS

The council met Tuesday evening
with Thompson and Mowrey absent.
Most of the other councilmen had
colds and coughs and there was more
or less of discord in the remarks.
They took recess of half an hour
to give the street and alley committee
a chance to check up the bill of
Manguin & Sons for cement work,
and in the meantime there was dis
cussion of street paving and sewers,
storm sewers, etc. The second
house" paved Is blocks with cement
at a cost of about $1.30 square
yard, and finally got tangled up on
storm sewers and the means TO keep
ing the paving cleaned. There were
present Mr.. D. H. Biethan, Stewart
Parkinson and H. M. Heimerdinger,
the two latter apparently interested
in a site for developing electric
power
Several minor matters were gone
over without reaching conclusions
and. after passing upon the bills the
,coincil adjourned.

eminent.

Minot, N. D., Dec. 41.-Voters of
Minot are likely to be asked to de-
eide the question of abandoning the
commission form Of government and
reverting to the mayoraltyi and alder.
manic system. Minot was the sec
ond city in the state to adopt the
commission system. The agitation
for a return to the old plan is not
so much an objection to the com,
mission system In itself as in the
general dissatisfaction with men
chosen as members and resultant con.
ditio1s. NJ s
Z In order to maintain itself on a cash
basis and at the same time carry on
improvements that were necessary,
the commission had to increase the
property assessments and at the same
time make "a high levy. This made
the taxes higher than formerly and
saused many protests and complaints
The chief dissatisfaction with the
commission has been because of the
frequency and changes. Since the
plan was adopted only one commits
sioner has completed the term for
which he was chosen. Deaths and
designations have caused the changes
/ Failure to enforce the laws has beer
the chief source of, trouble. The Of.
flee of police commissioner has al.
ways been a storm center and the
dissatisfaction increases. On three
occasions there have been attempts
to invoke the recall.
