rh. street Car Question.

NV attention has been called to an ar
ticIes in this weeks NeUS, relating 80 the
proposed street railroad, commencing at
point on Prospect street, near George
NeuleiOn's residence, thence down Gen.
tire street TO Main, down Main to Lake
street, and thence to the HarbOr; and
that an offer has been made by certain
contractor To build the same all complete
for $25 900. As l am probably the con-
tractor referred to-and at the request of
several Of our prominent citizens, will
put my proposition for constructing said
street railroad in a more tangible shape,
for the consideration of those interested
therein.
1. will do all the grading and wild
ening OF the streets where necessary, to
the satisfaction and acceptance of said
railroad companY's engineer, as well as
the requirements of the city authorities.
2. Will furnish all the stringers, cross
ties. spikes and tram rails (Which shall
equal in weight A pounds or over for
every lineal yard of said proposed line of
road) and properly bed said cross ties,
and stringers, and lay said tram rails,
&c, for said railroad, TO the satisfaction
and acceptance of the company's engi-
nerr, and agreeably TO the plans and
specifications of same.
8. Will also put in all the turnopts,
switches and turntables required for said
railroad, and in accordance with the
plans and specifications. and to the salts
faction and acceptance of the engineer in
charge for said company.
A. Will properly ballast with coarse
gravel between the tram rails, so as to
give good roadway for the horses re-
quired TO haul the cars on said railroad.
5. Will equip said road with four new
first class cars, equally as good as those
used in the cities-two of which shall
comfortably seat fourteen passengers, and
two to comfortably seat twelve passen-
gers, together with the horses and har-
nesscs necessary to operate the same, at
once. on the completion of the road.
g. All of the above conditions will
fulfill in constructing the said road, be-
tween the points above named, for the
amount heretofore stated.
Probably it would not be out of the
way in this connection, TO state that 1
base my contract price for building said
Street Railroad at so low a fgure-the
length of line of road required being
something over four miles-upon the
fact that have the refusal of lot of new
tram rails quite below the market price;
and that have several experienced me-
chanics constantly under pay whether at
work or not, and who are at present un-
employed and from a long experience
as contractor on public works, feel
confident that can build said street rail-
road, IN first class style. as cheap, if not
cheaper than any other competitor for
The same. Yours, very truly,
