Dunn to call Petitions will be asking Mayor Dan & special city meeting to rescind the vote of the regular meeting which authorized an expenditure of $5,000 to extend the block 7 on Main street.

Wilcox, one of the supporters of the petition stated Monday evening that he thought the sentiment would be overwhelmingly against the expenditure, if people would only give the matter a thought. He has requested all who feel that was to aid in circulating the petitions. 1t is hoped that jf sufficient signers are obtained, Mayor Dunn will, as ke has in the past, allow the voters to settle the matter themselves in open meet- ing. There are many who favor perma- nent paving in the city, and the ques- tion was talked over somewhat at the city meeting, the chief objection at that time being to laying too much of the paving before all underground work was finished, thus necessitating tearing it up when improvements were made. It does not seem, how- | ever, as if there was much chance for | the present at least, of underground conduits for wiring, etc, as muck of an improvement as that would be, so that the question of expense, and whether or not such permanent work pays will probably be the points at which the proponents of the measure will aim.
