The work on the outfall sewer was
handled In commendable manner, and
the Office. 1t is possible by the engineers
show the cost of each section and the
amount of material furnished by the
city. Among other things, and to illus
trate the city's engineers method of
superin tendence, he has system of re-
ceipts and reports whereby is shown
the disposal of every one of the several
thousand barrels of cement used in the
construction of the outfall sewer Each
barrel can be traced from the warehouse
to the teamster. to the inspector, to the
contractor and to the particular sec
ton where and the date upon which it
was used. This is in such contrast to
the administration of some other offices
in the matter of records, the keeping of
which is not compelled by constant pub
lie reference that We consider it worthy
of special mention and APPROVAL.
There is at present in the city treasury
credit to the outfall sewer fund, free
of debt or liability, of $21, ,S25. The un-
usual experience of having a great pub
lie work constructed at less than the es-
timated cost is a gratifying one. to
which all our citizens may well feel a
pride in calling attention"
Is it possible for any higher tribute
to be paid to the honesty and efficiency of
Mr.. Dockweiler? He should be e-elect-
ed to the office he has been named for.

the cost to the city of each piece of

expense is returnable to the city as

Bales HIS own Wool.


I Mr.. ]. II. Sherar is in the city. A
part of his wool clip has already arrived
and the rest is on the way. Mr.. Sherar's
wool can easily be told from all the rest
as it lays on the D. P. & A. N. ware
house platform. 1t has been baled and
bound with iron straps. The device for
doing this is Mr.. Sherar's own invention.
All his wool Is now baIed before leaving
the ranch. In these days when it re-
9uires the most rigid economy for a wool
raiser to market his wool without loss,
any invention which will reduce ex-
penses should be hailed with satisfac-
ton. Besides reducing bulk, the chief
advantage in baled wool is that the
transportation rates are much less than
upon bags.
