CONTRACT GOES 70 DIVER
COMBINATION BID FOR PLUMBING
AND HEATING GIVEN
TO HIM
KEGS AND REDWOOD FALLS
Commissioner Powers Aroused the
Plumbers Ire by a Mysterious
Reference-Lfe Direct
Was Passed.

The meeting of the county commission
| ers yesterday afternoon to award the
contract for the plumbing of the new
| jail proved to be one of the "Warmest'
propositions that the members of the
board had ever tackled. Some of the
contesting bidders present became so
personal at one time that it looked as if
things were coming to a sensational eli
max. The result was that the contract
was awarded to the DWyer Heat
ing and Plumbing company for 50, $780,
The Dwyer company had a provision that
If it secured the contract for both the
heating work and the plumbing it would
take the two contracts for a total of
$l6,95O. The bid for heating was award
ed to this firm at a previous meeting
of the board for 1880 This bid was
reconsidered yesterday afternoon and the
combination bid passed.
When the board met yesterday after
noon the special committee, consisting
of Commissioners Gray, Wright and
Powers, appointed to investigate as to
the responsibility Of the different bidders
for the plumbing work, made its report
and recommended that the Dryer
Plumbing and Heating company be
awarded the bid. They gave as their
reason for making this report that they
did not propose to have the work on the
new jail tied up upon account Of strik 8.
1t was moved and seconded that the
report of the committee be adopted, and
voterwas just about to be taken when
Herchmer Johnston, representing Mr..
Harrington, asked permission to address
the board before a vote was taken. Com
missioner Powers, however, was Of the
opinion that they had been given plenty
of opportunity to be heard in regard
to the matter and objected After some
par1ey, however, Commissioner Powers
withdrew his objection, and Mr.. John
ston was allowed to take the floor
George A KEGS, the second lowest
bidder, was next in line and protested
against any action of the committee
awarding the bid to the Dwyer company
After little more talking the mo-
ton to adopt the committees report was
adopted by a vote of 5 to 2, Mayor Smith
and Commissioner Quehl voting against
it.
The contract was awarded, and Chair
man Smith had just declared it award
ed to the Dwyer company, when Mr..
KEGS, who was on his way out of the
committee room, passed the remark that
they might just as well have awarded
it to the "Crane-Ordway company" In
| moment the ire of Mr.. Dwyer was up
and he retorted by politely falling Mr..
KEGS that he lied Words commenced
to come thicker and thicker for a few
! moments. but the spectators were dis
appointed in not seeing or hearing ap"
thing more than a war OF words that
tended toward the personal

By TREATMENT OF SOIL
HOW Agriculture is FOSTERED
IN SOUTH ESTERN
MINNESOTA

Hon. A. G. Gregg, of Lynd MINI, adj
dressed the members of the Commercial
club yesterday afternoon on "The I'm
proved Agriculture of Southwestern
Minnesota"
Mr.. Gregg spoke in part as follows:
.''It is safe to say that no portion OF
our state may not safely be called arabic
in that it not only has a good soil but
also a sufficient amount Of moisture
when the conditions from which moisture
come are understood, and the methods
for preserving the same are faithfully
maintained"
Taken one year with another it is not
good agriculture to attempt 20 grow a
crop, depending upon the rain and deWs
which may descend during The growing
period, but it is good agriculture to grow
a crop with absolute certainty. Depend
ing only in part upon rains and dcws. but
for the balance resting with assurance
upon the deposit of water in the subsoil
as described"
Use OF DECAYING MATTER.
He then brought to their attention a
new fact which is very important in prac.
teal agriculture. which has not been
utilized except in comparatively recent
days, save always, of course, where it
has been done without knowledge and
purely through accident, and CONSEQUENT
ly did not enter into any system of agri-
culture. The statement was made that
when vegetation died it's natural course
was. as all understood, to return to the
earth. That this progress should he ma Q
sure. Nature has provided that this de-
caying vegetable matter when placed in
the soil shall absorb unto itseIe the aG-
jacent water or the water which might
fall from the top soil. and after having
received it it holds it in very firm grip
The speaker then referred 20 the great
value of clover as a plant which would
put fertility into the soil by it's tranIfcr
of nitrogen which # finds so abundantly
in the air. depositing it in the soil in
such form that the plants can make
use of it. He spoke very highly Of tho
use of the manure spreader which DIS
tTihuted the manure much more evenly
than could be done by hand and in a
much more economical manner This
manure stimulated the growth of the
clover when applied to it upon the
surface and in that way made itself to
do double duty, as it stimulated he
extra clover growth, and the clover adds
fertility as stated. The speaker said
a field had been tested during this last
unfavorable season and it had pi o 'uced
thirty bushels of wheat to the acre by
actual measurement, when such land SO
yielding would not have produced more
than ten bushels under ordinary treat
ment.

Their Appearance in the Dis

Says.

The quo warranto proceedings to test

court as not of sufficient Importance for
them to consider are still in hiding, des-
pite the published statement of eX-Aider-
man Bell that he would at once bring the
matter before the district court.
,AIderman Moriarty, against whom the
proceeding are directed, says the matter
is, worrying him very little. No papers
have been served upon him and he has
not even gone to the trouble OF securing
an attorney to head of what some jok-
ingly calls his Finish
There has been considerable talk afioat
to the effect that the legal department
of the city was greatly interested in the
matter and that. the case was being
pressed by the heads of this department.
One of the corporation attorneys staff
yesterday, when spoken to regarding
the rumor, denied it emphaticaliy, but
refused to be interviewed at length.
'"Fhis department never was, never has
and will not be mixed up in these pro-
ceedings," said he.
