CITY PAVING

II Caldwell is to do anything in
paving this summer. right now is the
time to begin. Never, with equipment
on the ground. property owners anx-
ious to have the work done, will a
more propitious occasion present it
self.
Practically every property owner
on Dearborn street signed the petit
ton asking the city council to narrow
that street to 80 feet and asking for
immediate paving So anxious we're
property owners for improvement
that some Of them asserted a willing
ness to pay the cost of paving inter
sections. Under the circumstances
II would seem that nothing should
stand in the way to prevent immedi-
ate work on paving at least the IL
blocks asked for.
The Tribune believes that it would
not be good precedent to accept the Of
fer OF property owners in the propos-
cd paving district unless such a pro
cecdure is made necessary through
reaching the legal limit of bonded in
debtedness And then such a course
should be followed until the city can
refund the money
According TO approximate esti-
mates, the city will have to cxpend
less than $4,000 to cover the cost of
its share Of the paving. That is lit
tie more than has been expended on
the Indian creek retaining wall and
surely would be source OF far great
er satisfaction to the general tax
payer.
Nothing should stand in the way of
an expeditions beginning of con-
structive municipal paving program
or prime importance is the wish of
the property owners. The city coun-
q! should grant their request for paw

out one thing: Caldwell people had

assurance that construction would be
