commission. Plans and estimates have been COM
peted for 60 additional blocks Of paving, and con-
tracts have been let for immediate construction of
Is blocks of these estimates, including the paving
Of South Fourth street to Coal avenue, and of Coal
avenue into the Highlands, thus opening another
trunk line of traffic between the east and west sides
of the city. To carry out fully this additional traf
fC line plan, the reconstruction of the Coal avenue
viaduct will be necessary. A proposal for bond
issue for this purpose is before the people.
Included in the commissions street improve
ment plans to be paid for out of current funds are
estimates for additional sprinkling and cleaning
equipment and the fush-coating Of the paving in
the business district laid in 1872 which will render
that paving as good new.
Does that indicate backward and reactionary"
policy or "lack of vision to what Albuquerque
ought to become?"
PARK EXPANSION PLANS.
The commissioners have completed the park
ing of Mcclellan square and have begun the beau
tfying of the new Water Works park on Mountain
road. All but few of the Objectionable cotton
bearing trees have been removed from Robinson
park and these will be removed this year, All but
three tracts of land needed for the 140-acre Rio
Grande park, along the river front, have been Sc
cured and one of these is practically secured Plans
for improving this park with complete cost esti-
mates, have been prepared The city is ready to 90
ahead as quickly the additional tracts of land
needed can be secured. Plans have been completed
for eliminating the Objectionable acequas still re-
manning in the city limits.
Does that indicate backward and reactionary"
policy, or lack of vision as to what Albuquerque
ought to become?"
1t is a fact and the public records show, that
the present city commission has given thorough
study and has taken aggressive action toward every
of those essentials of expansion needed by this
city, and that it has opened the way for providing
every one Of those essentials if the people elect to
ratify the expenditures necessary.

.ELks CHARITY SHOW
IS TO Be GIVEN SOON

One of the best shows that Is be-
ing presented to the. public this
season will be produced in this dis
trict during the month of June when,
under the auspices of the Elks and
for the benefit of sweet charity. which
is one of the cardinal principles of the
order, C. II. Lewis will present The
Beauty Shop"
II. W. Edwards. chairman of the
committee for the Elks, and under
whose guidance. the great attraction
vii be staged. has succeeded in pro-
curing the services of Lewis. who Is
well known in :his district and will
ever be remembered since his men,

Bohemia, which he conducted here
some time ago and which ran to q
crowded house in Bio hall for three
consecutive nights. following which |.

ception at McGill The big Snowman
is expected to arrive in Ely next Sat
urday night. according to informa-
tion received by Chairman Edwards
by wire during the week. The play
is just finishing a most successful
run i'm Idaho Falls and will open In
Ely just as soon as the proper ar
rangements can be made.
G. II. Lewis is a show man of the
highest order. who follows the bust
ness exclusively. making a specially
of staging performances for the Elks
He carries with him a complete line
of scenery and costumes, but picks
up local talent in each town which he
visits. thereby making his shows local
attractions where the talent is backed
up by the wide experience of the pro-
fessional
1t Is seldom that an opportunity
presents itself whereby the theatcr-
going public may receive rare treat
and the small amount charged each
one for admission goes to make the
sum total of the great Elks charity
fund Every dollar realized will be
distributed among the needy, and il
is by this method as distinguished
from personal appeal to those chart
tably inclined that the best people on
earth raise necessary funds 10 car
ry on the great work. At Christmas
time last year the stray Elks of this
district devoted the sum of 81 500
every penny of which went to supply
the Christmas baskets containing the
the little toys so necessary to bring
sunshine into the homes and gladness
into the hearts of the little tots who
have not been born with the silver
spoon is their mouths. and to whom
the celebration of the birth OF the Re-
deemer of all Mankind would pass In
the ordinary course of events like all
other days in their dreary lives were
I 1t not for the strong arm of charity
which the Elks extend in such an un-
ostentatious manner.
The exact date of the great show
will be announced shortly after Di-
rector Lewis arrives. but an approxf-
mate date is being figured as June 20.
As soon as the tickets are placed
on sale they will doubtless be in great
demand. and It. will be we'll to secure
seats in advance, as standing room
will be at a premium from the time
the doors are thrown open until the
big show hnally closes.

OBSERVED BY PARADE

The celebration of Memorial day in
Ely last Tuesday was n fitting tribute
to the honored dead and left no
doubt as to gratitude and feeling of
high esteem which will ever be cher
ished in the bosoms of the citizens
of this district for the departed ones
and particularly for those heroes to
whom the nation owes its existence.
The ceremonies were under the
auspices of Ely Post No. g. American

Ely band under the direction of Pro-

the main street with old glory float
! ing in the air and supported on either
side by ex-seryice men If the sailor
and marine, they were followed by
G. A. r. and Spanish-American war
veterans. Next came the members of
the Benevolent and Protective Order
of Elks, who turned out in large
numbers. Then came the members

dren both on foot and in trucks dec

PAVE AULTMAN STREET
WITH GOVERNMENT A|O

The probability of paving Aultman
street within the city limits, which Is
now perhaps the matter under most
serious consideration by the mayor
and city council. Is making rapid
progress.
City Attorney j. NJ. Lockhart has
been in communication with the state
highway department in an effort 10
procure federal aid whereby the cost
to the city would be reduced To one
fifth of the total expenditure required
and the project has thus far met with
favor
A survey made two years ago de-
termined the distance the easter ri,
and westerly city lines to be two and
one-tenth miles. To cover this dis.
tance with suitable pavement IS
feet I'm width. including the cost oi
Strengthening out the road under the
culvert near the city line on the west
as well as bridge over the railroao
tracks at the crossing near the tunnel
is estimated at $4,000, and the city
furnishing one dollar for every -four
furnished by the federal government
would make the cost tc the city $24.-
900. This would exceed the amount
which the mayor and councilmen ie-
Gently agreed to furnish on the part
of the city by $4,000.
In order to obtain federal aid foi
such work within incorporated cities
Jail grade crossings must be eliminated
and the cost of bridge over the
tracks near the tunnel as well as the
undereut near the western city line
enters largely into the figures quoted
In order to overcome this obstacle
and stay within the 81 Zoo limit
which the city placed on the project
as its share at the outset plan Is
now being given consideration where
by the city line on the west may be
drawn in to point Immediately east
of the culyert under the railroad
tracks. This would make the actual
mileage between the two lines onc
and sixteenth miles. and so reduce
the cost OF paving as to bring the
city's proportion well within the sl5.-
900 figure set
The matter of drawing in the city
line will be taken up at the meeting
of the mayor and city council tomor-
row night, when 1t is believed a posi-
tive line of action will be decided
upon. Ii the decision is reached
and the plan to cut down the mileage
within the city limits is adopted the
matter of procuring federal aid will
be in no way hindered. and it is be-
lieved the paving work will be com
menced during this summer seacon.
While a paved street has been dis
cussed in a general way practicall,
ever since the city was incorporated
no active steps have ever been taken
until the present time. The i'm.
provement would be lasting one and
In the long run would prove a good
financial investment. as the cost OF
upkeep would be minimized and the
amounts now expended each year to
keep the road In shape would soon
total the cost of the paving.
