At a recent meeting of the city council
it was suggested that q contract for laying
Oyer curb and gutter stones be awarded to
Contractor j. H. Neyins, who laid the same
for the city last year. The opposition
raised the issue that it was customary to
advertise for proposals, and to award the
! contract to the lowest bidder. Aid. Walsh
sustained the first proposition, advancing
the theory that, inasmuch as there were
SO many varieties of stone, it was exceed
ingly difficult to determine who was the
lowest bidder, and furthermore, that Mr..
Nevins has been tried and has done excel
lent work and laid good stone. Many citi-
zens believe it would be to the interest of
the city to award the contract to Mr.. New
! ms, a resident, and so avoid ''tricks in
! trade"
