The city of Charlotte is spending considerably more than half a million dollars in the construction of new permanently paved . streets these fig ures including the part paid by the nroDerty owners. The streets already laid represent an expenditure of more than a quarter of a million dollars. 'Charlotte is doing well 'to'; build 'these 'streets, but we are making one costly end stupid : , mistake neglecting the streets after the paving has been com : 'pleted. y ' . Experts declare that overmuch .sprinkling is injurious to bitulithic or asphalt pavement. "With an accumu lation of filth on the streets frequent sprinkling is necessary for public comfort and - the water, held by the filth, keeps the pavement wet yy and sloppy for hours. : Would it not be iaiach simpler and cleaner to have Ithe streets flushed with a Are hose two - or three times a week and ' do away with most of the sprinkling? If there were no filth on the street sur face no sprinkling would be necessary. The city has a street sweeper but' it does not get the dust and fine par ticles on the paving and does not re move the necessity for sprinkling. There is a city ordinance which - forbids the hauling of dirt "over 'per manently paved streets in' wagons with beds , made of loose planks, if The Chronicle is correctly informed. This law; is. being violated every day !to the injury of the paving. -On East venue .particularly . the pavement is being literally covered with red clay and other, varieties of dirt which, mix Into about the stickiest and muddiest ; mud, possiblel On Elizabeth avenue the paving "has never" been cleaned ince the paving between the car tracks was completed and much dirt was left on the surface of the pave ment. On both of these avenues the pavement has been considerably worn fend damaged by , having jagged stones crushed into the surface by passing Vehicles, including heavy trucks and a-ead rollers. This sort of thing con tinues on East avenue at present. Charlotte while building new streets ds sadly, sadly neglecting what she al ready, has. The matter should have Ithe attention of the proper authorities Wt once. Streets cost money and the lax-payers foot the bills. whiMXVgtox ani charlotte. The Wilmington Star is trying to i&rouse the business men of its city to rthe Importance of organized endeavor jto develop the harbor and transpor tation facilities of the Coast City so that full advantage may be taken of the opportunities for. the growth of the city as a port under present cir- 'jbumstances and to be ready for the greater development that will follow the opening of the Panama Canal if ;the proper, effort is made. Wilmington tthould ' not ' only be a shipping and trading center but a manufacturing icenter as well, declares : The Star, which Incidentally shows that it has the right sort of ideas about . Char ' lotte in the following: "It' Is curious how some cities have asome peculiar, advantages to ' effect those of other cities. The Piedmont cities of North. Carolina T. have the pgreat advantage 1 of ; hydro-electric power for manufacturing. If they are not at ihe mercy of the power com panies, it is a tremendous advantage, ut when : a city has electrical -power and also the railroad facilities fto make it a good distributing point, 4t has double advantages as a manu- 1 acturing center. Charlotte,, for In stance, has this double advantage of .to them Is a geographic position that 'ias made North Carolina's Queen City . he center of the South's cotton mill ing industry. It is , Inevitable, there fore, that Charlotte is destined to be tone of the South's greatest Industrial cities. , She already is' of transeendant Importance as a manufacturing cen jter, and her Importance is such that he Is bound to increase her potenti alities for further development. For Instance, she is bound to become a rfereat railroad center, for her geo ; graphic position . and . industrial lead fcre sufficient Invitations to make her jthe objective point of the great rail road systems that are linking up with the great producing centers of the jrapidly-developing South." There are many bonds of sympathy existing; between Charlotte and Wil- jmington. The people of the two cjt iea like each other and the s business: ftnen of the two cities would be pleased to see a'ioser relationship - in ,dusi 1 ess. X: Wilmington has .many advan tages as a commercial and Industrial penter and " the propaganda 'of Btar is bound to bear, fruit. ; The THE RACE FROBIiESI The ' movement to develop a large and high class suburb for the exclu- sive occupancy of colored -people marks an important advance in their nroirreas here In. the South. If ..any other suburban development has been made elsewhere : exclusively s for col ored people, we do not recall it at this writing. While in the case of the new Washington Heights development, there is no rule" that white people cannot buy lots, yet it Is not expected that whites will go there in ; any numbers, or perhaps not at all. , Yet in - this development at Washington Heights, beyond Biddle, the - white people are co-operating by investment and otherwise with the colored peo ple to make it a fine suburb. 'It is being , considered to; make $1,000 or 1,200 the minimum cost of p, house to be built : in the suburb. This will by no means limit the cost of houses to $1,000 or $1,200. It is expected that homes will be built costing $5,- 000 or more. - Thus the two races In the South, agreeing to live , socially apart, nevertheless work for each oth er's prosperity and happiness, and the good will thus engendered facilitates the -better living of both races. - The suburb will have good trolley service and every facility, of modern city life. The main line of the river water, sup ply comes through the suburb." MOKE RAHiROAD TALK. "Raleigh and Chfixlotte may as well make up their minds to be on a Coast Line trunk some of these days," de- clares The Wilmington . Star, , which should know . more about the affairs and prospects of the Atlantic Coast Line than any other newspaper in the country. The Star is inclined to the nntninn : bnxirever. that instead 1 of building from Fayettevllle "to Wades- bor.o and on to Charlotte that the road will be built from Raleigh to Char- otte, the gap" between Spring Hope and Raleigh also being built of course. That is both logical and probable says . The Star. "This would give tne Coast Line a continuous road running from 'Norfolk by way of Raleigh; to Charlotte, and It is among the very strong probabilities that tune , wi prove that such a line will be con structed. If signs now point to It, Raleigh and Charlotte may as well count on that line's going rigni straight on to Atlanta. The South has ust commenced to build s . railroads, and the trunk line hinted at here is one of the most likely posslbilltlesj on the railroad map. The next move on the railroad checkerboard may be In that direction. Where there is so , much ; smoke there Is apt to be some fire and Char lotte has strong hopes br getting the Coast Line in the very near future. If the- road extends as another trunk line on to Atlanta so much the better. It may be repeated that the Coast Line will find ; ready . co-operation among the - business men of the city when they are ready to V come into Charlotte. . THE DRAINAGE MEETING. r-Much interest is being manifested throughout the State In the annual convention of j the North Carolina Drainage ; Association ' which '- Is to be held at "Raleigh next Tuesday and Wednesday. All phases of the several drainage systems will : be dealt with by practical engineers and - experts. Among the interesting speakers who will be present is Mr. c . &uioiz. formerly director of the a office or i drainage investigations of the United I States Department of Agriculture, and a drainage engineer of wide reputa tion. . He will tell the ' story of the drainage of Haarlem Lake in Hol land, of which he has first-hand Infor mation, and his address will be not only an Interesting but an instructive one. , : Other speakers will be Dr. . D. H. Hill, president of the A. and M. College, and Prof. William Cain of the University of North Carolina. The headquarters of the; convention will be the Tarborongh Hotel, and the meetings will be held in the Chamber of Commerce. All citizens Interested In this phase of conservation and de velopment are invited to attend, and to take part t& the proceedings and discussions. The proposed movement to make Charlotte a tonrlsts' center would meet with Instant success if it ' were properly organized and pushed. The weather here Is ideal during the win ter compared with that of the North and with good hotels and ample golf links and other attractions Charlotte could put in a most attractive bid. ; Charlotte is not alone in her prop osition to install 'a modern street- lighting system in the .uptown dis tricts. Winston-Salem is agitating the same matter. Unless Charlotte does act she whl soon -be classed among the slow-goers in ; so far as up-to-date street-lighting Is concerned.
