Mn. EDIroR. me through the
columns of your paper, to make the fol-
lowing statement respecting the propo-
sails for, and the contract entered into
for building the County Jail. 1t is well
known that the Court Of Sessions adver-
tissd, through the Journal, for proposals
to build the Jail, and that it was stated
in the advertisement proposals would
be received by the County Judge, up to
the third of May, inst. Up to that date
there were some four or more proposals.
in writing, handed in to Judge Caswell
by different parties-one by Dumars &
Co., one by Gordon & Howell, one by
B. r. Dickcrman, besides others to us
unknown. After the third of May,
when it was known that bids had been
put in for certain sums, another bid wa
put in by Wilson s. Endicott, and for a
less sum than the lowest put in BY
any other person. This bid Of Wilson
& Endicott, was accepted, and the con.
tract for building the Jail awarded ia
them, although their bid was put in af'
ter the time for receiving proposals had
expired.
Now would ask by what rule Of JUS
tice or reason was the contract given to
parties who did not put in their bids ac-
cording to the terms Of the advertise
ment, Had the Court of Sessions the
right to disregard the terms Of their
advertisement, or was there conniving
on the part Of the Court, or other Of
6cers! These are questions which me-
chanics all feel interested in, and which
many Of them would like to have solved.
, The people should know whether all
are to have equal rights with each other
and whether the same rule which affects
one class of citizens is not equally bind
ing npon all under the same circum-
stances. Was the advertisement for
proposals to build q Jail mere bait OF
not! Did the Court Of Sessions intend
to be governed at oil by bids put in 40.
cordins to the terms Of the advertise
msnt, or did they or either Of them in
tend all the time to give the contract
to personal friends after receiving the
bids from outsiderss
| Itsertainly looks as If there was some
thing ''rotten in Denmark" Will some
one Of the officials who know the cir.
cumstances Of the bids, the time Of their
reception. 60, inform the public Of the
facts, and excuse the matter If it can
be done, and thus oblige
