trouble in collecting the money for work

tractors financially able to figure on the

opinion that by reletting this work, con
stderably cheaper and more satisfactory
proposals can be secured.

Is inimioal to home and union labor, and
II is well known fact that with the
sewer work now being done II requires
some considerable pressure brought to
bear upon him by the mayor to make him
comply with the labor ordinance OF the
city OF Houston.
