Tho town of Kinmball, which cast
110 votes in tho election last Tues
day Is making arrangements to Pave
four blocks of its business street.
Evidently a lot of North Platto ought
to go tq Kimball and becomo inoc
ulated with tho booster spirit. Think
of it, a town of less than 700 people
with paved streets while North
Platto with G.000" inhabitants dtlly
dally from year td year on tho paving
proposition because it will cost each
property owner a few moro cents in
taxes each year.. It begins to look as
though North Platto's progresslveness
is a more boast and not a reality.
