afternoon was checking over the esti-
mates. AS soon as completed it will
be turned over to Chairman Nickel, who
will deposit the same with the city clerk.

Truman Street Job

Councilmen Nickel and Hutchison of
the special committee appointed by the
city council to oversee the work on Tru-
man street and have the same done ac-
cording to the specifications, went out
yesterday afternoon to look the street
over and see what was necessary in the
premises Mr.. Nickel stated before he
left the city hall that he did not know
what could be done, except to have the
contractor tear up the street and lay
it again in a proper manner. The finan-
cial hackers of the contractor have al
ready spent considerable money in
trying to get the street in such shape
that 1t would be acceptable to the prop
erty owners, but without success. 1t
is claimed that after this work was done
Mr.. Nickel stated that it was in sat
isfactory condition. but when the mat
ter came up in the council Monday that
gentleman fatty stated that it was not
up to specifications and could only be
made so in one way, and that was by
tearing 1t out. Mr.. Nickel further stat
ed that he did not believe job of street
work in the city had ever been done
strictly according TO specifications; that
the contractors had been allowed en-
tirely too much latitude, and that it
was about time for having things put
on q proper basis.
