Coanuci.is on the streets regarding the Ulan of electing a council who will i'avor paving five blocks of the j busintss section of Independence are! generally favorable and tin? hope is j freely e.xprtssed that in the m-x: couiml men will be elected who will: undertake the work. There is no op- j position to the project outside of a) few property holders who would be ! benefitted by the improvements. The time has come when the proposition ot pavements must be dealt with. The city's business hit: rests are now standing still and the question of whtiner we are to go forward or fall back in the march of progress that all o her towns are undertaking de pends on these improvements. Mud streets are a poor recommendation these days and few investors will stop to take a second look at. a town which has no more show of prosper ity. The development of the country tributary to a town is largely influ enced by the air of prosperity which is displayed in the city. Poor streets and unattractive stores indicate pov erty stricken farms. We owe it to the population of our rural districts to put "Sunday clothes" on our streets. Our business institutions are creditable in every sense but our streets are abominable. When we take into consideration that once paved the expense practically ceases there seems little argument against the plan. The expense of oiling and sprinkling the streets is money thrown away. It is worse than rent money for in that the tenant escapes taxes, interest and insurance. The money for sprinkling and oiling might as well be thrown in the Willamette river so far aa the future comfort of Independence is concerned. Of course, the first thing is the sewering of the town. The work of sewering couldn't well be done after hard pavements are laid. Sewers for the city, however, are a foregone con i.,: Tho npnnle are determined i to have them. It is a sanitary ne- cessity of Independence. I Nothing but the promptings of seir ishness will stand in the way of hard surface pavements for Independence and when arguments come up against the paving project, look for the mo tive. Stand out against such argu ment and be bigger than your pock et book. Let's have a slogan. Let's make it Hard Surface Pavements and a harmonious council for Indepen dence. This for 1910 if nothing more. Noth h --. '. y given by the un-' and day. L. L. HEWITT, M. D. PHYSICIAN AND SURGEON Oi'fb e In Cooper building, room 2 and 3.

OBIIOOS Judge McCredie, who has been elected to reprsent the state of Wash ington in Congress, says that he is in favor of postal savings banks and the parcel post. He says more: that postal savings banks are a foregone conclusion and that he knows no rea son, why we should not have the par cel post also. He says that he is in favor of the people rather than the express companies and that un less there is some other reason for refusing it that he favors the parcel DOSt. The one other reason Is the corrupting of the servants of the peo-j pie by the express companies, and it m jar Repeating Shotgun ' i 1 1 1 iiiuur The 12 gauge E2arfin rMwaT is a pun of cerfect rtrnnrtrtinns. and hafi one-third less parts than any other repeater.
