The council has sev- eral bids under consideration, and the chief question is in regard to the kind of founda. tion to be put in. There ought to be some expression also given in regard to the use of tar. It has been pretty well demonstrated by the paving on Oakland avenue that the end of the blocks which were tarred ha already rotted, so that they crumble like clay. It is claimed that Minneapolis completely done away with the tar, and in Chicago there is little being used. Those who are protesting against tar do so on the ground that it stops up the pores in the wood, thus preventing the moisture from escaping and leaving it to steam and rot out the wood. It is believed that the pavements would dry out better and become thoroughly dry if no tar was used. d beef only For to p dress or call Main strect, Coun e At wholesale by Y.
