The mayor has very suddenly
changed his mind about the superin-

favor Of Mr. Bennett doing this until
Mr.. Foucart's plans were adopted and
was in favor of employing Mr. Ben
nett at half price after Mr. Foucart
had been employed,

other cheap man to superintend the
construction Of the building. Verify,

the records for it. Mr.. Foucart's plans
have been adopted by the council and
he holds contract to superintend the
construction Of this city building The
money lies Ia the banks which should
go out TO our laboring men for work.
Everything has been done properly
and in order and the advertisement for
bids for the construction Of the build
ing appears in this paper
