It Is believed that there Is nothing go
Important to Portland at . the present
sUge of Its growth as a big campaign
of street paving.,
The business men of the city, who
travel and observe condltlone in other
cities, have for some time been aware
of the fact that Portland is far behind
nearly all cities of lt clasa In the man
ter of street paving. It is said that
even the cities of the Pacific coaat
have outstripped Portland in the per
manent Improvement of their street.
The trouble in Portland has been a lack
of unit of effort and an absence of
the educational work that is always
necesVarv to bring the general mass of
Deople uo to a realisation of the truth
about good paved streets. , , . .
At a mttunt or tne ionium rsauj
board next Tueaday evening la the
board of trade rooms the subject of
district Improvement will be talked
over, and ft is probable that R. II.
Thompson, city engineer of Seattle, will
be Invited to oome to Portland and tell
the board about Seattle's great success

their value Is seen even in the views of

At the ' realty board a nut "meeting
an address on the theorr of the, single

The board's weekly excursion tomorrow
will be taken to waverlelgh, on invita
