PAVING SHOULD BE SUED
AI HI IE STREET
Winter Will Soon Set In and Work Cannot Be Pushed Until Spring
No Work on Government Building Until Paving is Finished
There la much intort-st bolus niaii
ifcHted on the pint of tlu Rood cttl
Ecns gf riuttsmoutti concerning the
pavliiR In the Third district which In
, Hudes Vine street from fourth to
Seventh and Fourth and Fifth streets
and from Main to Vine. Delay cnus
. ed already has caused Borne to feel a
little Impatient, and the fact that
the fall Is drawing on arid winter will
toon ho here, and the further fact
that the government officials will
not turn a wheel or put a shovel
In the ground toward the erection of
the new powtofMco building until
the paving Is completed In the abutt
ing Htreets, causes the feeling of un
easiness to Increase. It would be a
deplorable condition of affairs should
the men who have the city business.
; In charge allow the matter to bo
postponed from time to time, on one
pretext or another, until the weather
conditions would be such as to pre
vent the work being done this fall.
It Is an assured fact that tho gov
ernment Is now ready to let the bid
for the construction of the postofflce
building and stipulate for the work
to commence Just as soon . as the city
has Its streets In the required condi
tion to receive the structure. '
The mayor and city clerk1 Tiave
already been authorized, to sign up.
the contract, and the work of ap
proving the bond of the contractor
Is a quick job, when the same Is
presented.
Mayor Sattlor received a letter
some three days ago from R. L. Me
Kenzle, for M. Ford, stating that, he
had a bunch of expert paver who
were Just completing a contract In a
city In the western part of tho state,
and that he could send these men to
I'lnttsnioiith any day now as soon as
the contract and bond were signed
up.
It has been a week slnco the spe
cial meeting of the council which ap
proved tho report of tho streets, al
leys and bridges comniltteo recom
mending that tho bid of M. Ford be
accepted. The matter has been In
the hands of the city attorney since
that date for the preparation of the
bond and contract. Tho papers are
Important and it Is necessary to take
sufficient time to get them techni
cally correct, and It Is believed that
the papers will bo ready for the sig
natures of the city officials before
tho end of the week. The formality
of signing will not have to await any
further action of the city council,
although that body will meet in reg
ular session' next Mondayevening.
Mayiir Sattlor hopes tq'.Vee the
work of paving In full swlnat before
'twoweeks'tribro. It will renrtlre hut
.short, time to get the' material on
the ground after the signatures of
the partleB are attached to the con
tract and bond.
