There is a strong agitation in the city that the Confederate monument which now stands in the middle of Main street in front of the court house be. moved to a more, suitable place. possible in the court house lawn. i . . This matter has come up before the city council and will probably be acted upon' before the work of placing the asphalt on Main street begins. -. k The city council desires to ascer tain the sentiments of the citizens in this matter - and will appreciate any suggestion which may be offered. " TO PATE 3IAIK STREET. , : Council Djfclds to Glre Contract r TTithln Kext Few WeeSsV ; ! The contract for paving Main street and Sixth avenue from the depot to Main street will, be let within the next two weeks is the statement-made by several; members of the city council. The only question which'is now to be settled before placing the contract is the manner in which the money may be secured by the city. C. A. Webb of Asheville r offers to lend the city of Hendersonville $20,000 payable within 5 and 10 years. His company wants the" first- amount to fall due in five years from the date of Issuing money. The city council desires to pay the principal and. interest at the rate of &2.000 Der year. The method In which the city will borrow the necessary money will be decided at - the next meeting of the council. Asphalt will be placed on the streets in preference to all other oavements. This is said to be - the jmost economical pavement and it Is guaranteed to last fifteen years and in cases where it 'will be taken cared 0f it will last twenty years or more. Main street has been badly in need cf pavement for . some time and with the laying of the street car track it has become necessary to place some kind of pavement immediately. Sixty working days after the contract Is given Hendersonville will have paved streets. BECEITERSHIP CONTINUED.
