An or- dinance has been introduced providing a large amount of paving for the cur rent year in districts where the traffio is heavy. Most of the proposed paving was petitioned tor by the property own ers last year. - , The city council is also wrestling' with the sidewalk question. This city has for more than two years been of suffi cient population to have free delivery, but, on account of the poor condition of the walks service has noUbeen estab lished. The council is about to adopt measures to compel sidewalks required by the postal regulations.. Another problem before th city coun cil Is the matter , of a new contract with the Siskiyou Light & Power com pany for lighting the city. It is gen erally realieed that a better lighting system is needed. The company has submitted several prepositions to ' the council, but no action has been taken. It is very probable a jiew arrangement will be made whereby the city will get better, service for less money." COLD WEATHER HARD .
