that the clerks would very probably

' PAVE THE SIDEWALKS.
The action of the citv council in
taking steps toward having the sidewalks
of (ircenu ood paved is most
commendable.
I be value to the property owners
wil! be more than double the cost of
putting down the paved sidewalks.
I he convenience and comfort of sueli
paved walks js too well known tc
need proof. All property having sueli
walks will be greatly enhanced in
value. Other towns are doing simiJar
work and the citizens are entering
into the work with enthusiasm. l!i
Greenwood the property owners, sc
far as is known, are also enthusiastic
Wo are very fortunate that all ot
these things are so. The good work
must be kept up, the enthusiasm will
need constant fanning.-Orecnwooc
Index.
Constant fanning is no doubt necessary
but our trouble has been tc
get the blaze started. If we could
once get the enthusiasm to assume
activity and get 011 it a good red glow
we do not think it would take sc
much fanning. The sidewalks Alone
most of the business streets are paved
now and the work was wel
done but it has never yet got started
in the other sections.
What we need is first to get some
street paving started. We understand
that since the proposition to pav?

has failed thai there is probabi
that Main from Caldwell to Col
will he paved. These two section:

other in the city and we will be j

" As I was idling in the streets one
fternoon," a writer in the New York
'ri'bune tells the story, "a hawker's
ries assailed my ear. The man had
truck filled with paper and envelpes,
and in a loud voice he yelled:
"'Here y'are! Box o' Paper and
kventy-flve envelopes on'y one dime!'
"But suddenly his yells were
rowned hy louder ones, and another
awker, crowding the first out of the
av, jostling him rudely, shouted, aa
e pushed along a higger truck:
" 'Five cents?on'y a nickel?box

lily one nickel!'
"The trucks came near colliding,

"Finding that the two kinds of paper
were identical, the people bought
the cheaper sort hungrily. I was amazed
to see the business that the nickel
mind did. As for the dime man, poor |
fellow, lie shouted on lustily, but it r:
seemed that, the louder he shouted, *'l
the more of his rival's stock the peoplo
bought.
"Finally the sales ceased. Everybody
had bought enough paper to last
a year.
"The dime man departed first, and
the nickel man left a few minutes later.
I followed to see a repetition of
the rival sales in the next 'street.
" The dime man, to my amazement,
was waiting around the corner, and,
as he piled a lot of his stock on the
other's nearly empty truck, I heard r
