In supplying the stone work for the

property owners having been dissatis-
fed with the award and determined to
resist it by every means within their
power. The contract is for the improve
ment of Main street, from Ninth to
Thirty-second street, by paving the
same with asphalt, with granite cutters
and cement curbs and sidewalks, and
amounts to about $130,00O, the work to be
done under the bond act. After several
trials, the contract was awarded to John
T. Long. Proceedings were at once in
stituted in the courts to knock out the
contract, but this was defeated, and
work was commenced. The street was
plowed up for almost its entire length,
and for months was left in this condition.
The reason for this delay was because
the matter Of the validity Of the bonds
was pending before the supreme court,
and the contractors were awaiting de-
cision before putting their money In the
work. The people finally became tired
of the delay, and the council took the
matter in hand. Every effort was made
to hurry up the contractors, but without
avail. The legal representatives of the
contractors appeared andSpresented all
sorts of excuses, that owing to the mag
nitude of the job, special machinery was
being constructed for handling the as
phalt; that other delays had resulted
and that they had been handicapped by
/, various other causes, but that when they
did go to work, they would have facilities
| for laying 10000 feet a day, and that the
work would be completed before the ex-
piration Of the time set in the contract
! These excuses were accepted for some
weeks, but finally, when the contractors
failed to begin active work on the date
which they had named, the council per-
! emptorily cancelled the contract In the
| meantime the asphalt works of Mills
| paugh & Co. had been completed, and a
| favorable decision having been rendered
on the bonds by the supreme court, only
a few days after the cancellation Of tht
contract, work was commenced and ths
| Job was rapidly pushed. Then new line
! of opposition developed An analysis
| OF the asphalt was secured, which
! showed that 1t did not contain the pro-
| portion Of bitumen required by the speci.

other hand, insisted that they were fully
complying with the specifications, and
in this they were backed up by Street
Superintendent Howard, who stated to
the council that he had been giving the
matter his personal attention, and that
he knew 1t was the best piece of asphalt
paving in the state The feeling ran so
high that the council ordered the city
engineer to have an official analysis
made by the chemist of the state univer-
sity and the contractors were warned
that the closest scrutiny would be main
tained, and that any failure to live up to
their contract would result in its forfeit
ure. All the time during this controver-
sy the contractors were rushing the
work. They were using the most ap-
proved appliances and apparently put
ting down fine piece of pavement, that
was satisfactory to the street depart
ment. The street was finished well with
in the contract time. and, on being In
spected, was accepted by the street SUI
perintendent, who issued his warrant
for the assessment After this had been
done, the result of the analysis of the as
phalt by the state chemist was received
by Engineer Compton. This analysis
showed that the contractors had more
than complied with the specifications,
so far as the asphalt was concerned, and
the city engineer further stated that, so
