A Short Session Yesterday = Contracts

A Short Session Yesterday - Contracts
The Board of County Commissioners
met Yesterday morning at ten o'clock,
all the members being present.
On motion of DR.. Bates, the policy OF
insurance on the barn at the Infrmary
was ordered renewed, with the privilege
of cancelling it when the other insur-
ance expires. The report OF the Com
mittee on Court House and Jail, on in
surance was approved.
The bids for medicine were opened,
and the contract south Of the creek
was awarded to w. W. Irwin at his bid
of SS4, and north Of the creek to Ed
mund Booking at S99.96.
The contract for coal south Of the
creek was awarded to the Wheeling
Mining and Manufacturing Company,
and north of the creek to Joachim q
Co.
Mr.. Altmyer got the contract for un-
dertaking.
The Commissioners serving on the
Canvassing Board were allowed sixteen
days pay, except Mr.. Babe, who was
allowed fifteen days. The tally clerks
were allowed $50 each, and the deputy
clerk in the Office sec. This makes the
expenses of the recount to S643. No
opportionment was made among the
candidates. Messrs. Tarr and O'Kane
pay nothing, and the burden will fall
on Messrs. Dovener and Moffat, al
though Candidate for Commissioner
Leroy Alexander, In Liberty, will have
a small slice Of the expenses.
In the end. the county will have to
pay nearly all of the expenses OF the re-
count, although it would seem to mostly
fall on Mr.. Moffat, under Prosecuting
Attorney Towards decision. Messrs.
O'Kane and Tarr, whose recount
"changed the result of the election" to
quote the statute, pay nothing; Captain
Dovener drew out OF the race, after
three districts had been recounted, and,
of course, has only small proportion Of
the expenses to pay, and Mr.. Alexan-
der's interest did not extend beyond
Liberty district, and his expense is
hardly worth mentioning. This would
seem to leave the burden chiefly on Mr..
Moffat.

Dena, proprietor OF another small
Mexican sheet, called the Latigo.

another through the columns of their
respective sheets. Last night the
whole affair was capped when Mex

the corner of West Commerce and

split the mans head open with his
cane. Then followed free fight in
which eight Mexicans were mixed up,
besides policeman who arrested the
