The action of the First Branch of the
CITY Council last evening in delaying
the award OF the contract for the erection
Of the capitol, aud thus delaying the work
itself, is very reprchensibe. The reason
given for tins course is that further time
j, needed for the members Of Council
10 examine into the plans and specitiea-
lions, in order to see whether or not they
are all right. Now the following adyer-
,i-,ment has been inserted for some time
IN the daily papers.
The plans and specifications may he
seen. and any information desired may
be- obtained by applying TO ). ;; fa'T'"A' lIA
architect, or the undersigned al the iIpt"-
~ room. third floor in the Lihusief IN
.iiiutr northwest corner oi hou ana IL
,4rptb streets. on and after June loth.
From this it appears that nearly three
week, has been given in which to ex-
anime these plans and obtain all informa-
,ion necessary. Surely this is time enough
not only for the city Fathers, but for
every man, woman and child in Wheel
iug, should they have desired it, to have
learned everything required to be known
about this matter.
The time is very short in which TO
complete the building, If it is expected
10 be ready for the reception of the Leg
stature in November. Not moment is
10 be lost, and yet work Is delayed still
further OH ground which
certainly seems very unreasonable.
This Is an important matter;
the State has been promised suitable
building, and expects to see it, Mt least
ia fair process of erection, hy the time
the legislature assemblies. II then, the
work Is found to bc proceeding unneces-
sarllv slowly, great deal of dissatisfac-
tion will be created, and, of course, will
work TO our disadvantage. We hope
there will be no other delay after this,
but that the building may be proceeded
with As rapid Iy as possible.
