CITY ss2,eoD
ONLY FOUR FIRMS
ASK FOR CONTRACT
Report That the Asphalt Companies
Would Make Fight to Get the Job
Comes to Nothing-Strip Two Miles
In Length to Be mproved-Largest
Award Of the Year.

| Contrary to expectations, only four
bids were presented to the board of
public works at it's meeting yesterday
afternoon for the paving of West Sew
enth street, from Ramsey street to
Tuscarora avenue, and as result it
only took the members of the board
five minutes to award the contract to
Fielding & Shepley, that firm being the
| lowest bidder and offering to make the
citys portion of the Improvement for
$4,000, and to pave the street car COM
pany's part outside of the rails for
$4,000.
The other bidders offered to do the
work for the following prices; P. M.
Hennessy, city's part, $96,875; city rail-
ways part, $l1,90O. l.. G. Washington,
city's part, $98,S75; city railway SSH, :
465. James Forrestal company, city's
part, $97,36O; city railways, $11,67O.
Largest Award of Year.
The fact that three other blank bids
besides those presented yesterday had
been asked for and that two Of the
firms asking for the blank bids were
the Barber Asphalt Paving company
and the r. F. Conway Asphalt compa-
ny, gave rise to storyj that the as
phalt companies Weret not pleased with
the success of the Kettle river sand
stone people and would accordingly
make an effort to lands the contract
themselves yesterday.
The expected" did not. happen, how
ever, and this may have been due to
some agreement reached between the
sandstone people and the asphalt COM
panies.
The contract is the largest awarded
this year and the strip OF street to be
paved is nearly two miles long. The
work will be commenced as soon as the
council and Mayor Smith approve the
contract

Mankato Democrat Prepares to Meas.
ure Strength With McCIeary.

Charles N. Andrews, of Mankato,
yesterday filed with the secretary of
state his certificate of candidacy for
Democratic nomination to congress in
the Second district.
In Mr.. Andrews the Democrats Of the
Second district have one Of the strong
est men they could pit against Nc
Cleary in an almost impregnable Re-
publican stronghold. He is one of the
best known attorneys and most popu-
lar men in the district. He was for
years associated with Judge Severance
and occupies a front rank position
among the lawyers of the state. He is
a broad gauge man and with the ex-
listing feeling against McCleary in his
own party Mr.. Andrews chances of
election are considered exceedingly
bright

CROOKSTON, Mimi, Aug. 20.-L.
A. Rosing, Democratic candidate for
governor, spent Tuesday in Crookston
and left this morning for Mcintosh.
From Mcintosh he will go north and
will visit various points in Marshall
and Kittson counties.
In Crookston Mr.. Rosing was the
guest of a number of prominent local
Democrats, and was accompanied on
his northern trip by number of his
supporters living here. Mr.. Rosing
stated that he was quietly visiting the
different portions of the state and is
examining conditions politically. He
said:
IT have been through the Red river
valley before, but this is my first visit
to the Ninth district since was hon.
ored with the nomination. I have just
concluded a very pleasant trip through
the new Eighth district and am we'll
satisfied with the conditions in that
portion of the state. l have also spent
some time in the southern part of the
state and everything is very salts
factory there.
Conditions Are Satisfactory.
"Of course, politics as yet is very
largely confined to the preliminary
canvass for nominations at the primary
elections, but taking everything into
consideration, have found the condi-
tons throughout the state very salts
factory. Things are not far enough
along at present to form an opinion Of
the exact situation, but am very we'll
pleased. I expect to visit Northwest
ern Minnesota several times before
election and I am expecting good sup
port from here. I have a large num-
Der of personal friends in these coun-
ties and have been assured of their
support.
"The Democrats of the Fifth district
will nominate Mr.. Lind and I believe
that he will be elected. The leading
Republicans of that district concede
that his election is an assured fact.
Eighth Looks Good, Too.
1.-THE fight in the new Eighth be-
tween Bede and Edison is very bitter
and grows more personal every day. The
Democrats of that district will nomi-
nate Jentsvold or Reynolds. These gen
tlemen are prominent citizens of Du-
luth and either Of them will put up
a winning fight. Mr.. Bede will I'M
doubtedly get the nomination from the
Republicans in that district" F@@a
Mr.. Rosing stated that he expects to
make thorough campaign of the state
when the proper time comes. His time
will be at the disposal of the state COM
mittee after the first of next month and
from that time on he will be under
their direction. His supporters in this
district are well pleased with the i'm
preston he is making and feel conf
dent of his election this fall. He will
remain in the northern country until
the latter part of the week, when he
expects to return here and from here
he will go to st. Paul. If the arrange
ments can be made he will be rendered
a reception upon his return to Crooks

Constable Martin returned last night late from Havard's place where he went to serve a search warrant issued at the instance of Adam Ator.. His buggy had been plundered a few days ago and a bonnet and an overcoat stolen. When he heard what a univer- Sal thief havard was he thought 1t was worth while to look in that direction for his missing property. The officer made comprehensive search of the house and the adjacent premises with out finding the plunder. About 200 yards from the house were a lot of cot tonwood trees. He saw something in the top of one of them. It was bundle which contained the hat belong ing to Mrs. Ator and another hat There was also another bundle' which the officer investigated. It contained several dozen boxes of pate de foie gras. He brought the stuff back to town and went to all the groceries but none of them had missed any delaca- cies of that kind. This was of a brand known as the I. x. L. None of that particular brand of canned goose flyers had ever been in Phoenix until within the last week. Where Havard got the stuff is a mystery.

POLICE COURT INCIDENTS
What Happens to Some Men Who
 Deal in Jewelry.

James McQue was picked up yester . day by Officer Aspey in the vicinity of Cooks barber shop on Second street, on a vagrancy charge, the specified tions for which are that he was try ing to sell a ring and it was imagined that he was one of the many bad ones that are now percolating through this country. But the jewelry proved to be a fine piece of goods, nothing "phony" about it. It's settings are three fine opals and four garnets while the band is marked fl carat gold, and the ring has evidently been worn a great deal. McQue's story Is that he left Clifton where he was engaged in the plasterinS business, with between thirty and forty dollars in his pockets. At Lordsburg he spent most of his money and finally bought this ring from drunken miner for $1.50. He was trying to sell it for s3 and had he done so somebody would have got a bargain. But he didn't 'so he was held till today in default of a bail bond of S25 and the ten cents he had in his pocket was put out at inter est by the jailor. John McFadden who was examined the day before on a va grancy charge was given thirty days in jail. Joe is a lively sort of chap for one so handicapped in his operations, for although half of one O; his feet is cut off or broken and still sore, and he has occasional hemorrhages to remind him that good health is a blessing, he has managed since lastNMarch to make d thorough exploration of all the broad acres that lie between Rhode Island and Phoenix. He was also q dealer in iewelry.
 John St. Claire who was arrested the day before was convicted on the charge of vagrancy having no visible means of support except bunch of keys that didn't belong to anything or anybody seemingly. He said he had found them in the road and could not bear to throw them away thinking sometime he might find the owner. His other stor- ies did not sound good and he was held for fifteen day term.
 TOribio Camargo was drunk and dis orderly, very much SO, or at least ten dollars worth and board for as many days
 Late in the afternoon Won You was jailed for trespassing When J. Gard ner Field wanted to go to bed Monday night he found MT.

He was tried for in sanity a short time ago and was dis charged. While his conversation gen orally seems to be rational enough his conduct suggests that his head needs fixing and it is not determined vet just what treatment will be employed.

DEPUTY OFFICIALS
Oficers-Elect Beginning to Name
 Their Assistants.

Probate Judge elect Phillips yestsr- day made announcement of the ap pointment of George Kirkland as clerk of the probate court MT. Kirkland has for some years been employed by clerical capacity. He is an active mem- Der of the Young Mems Republican club and took a prominent part in the late campaign.
 It has also been announced that Geo. Purdy Bullard will be the assistant district attorney. MT. Bullard may be said to have already entered upon his duties though his salary has not got started yet. He is familiarizing him self with the criminal cases which will come before the next grand jury that will sit after the first of the year.
 But the appointment tc which the public is looking forward with special interest has not yet been announced, that of county assessor. The super visors will put that appointment off as long as possible. It could not as a matter of fact be made until the new board takes its seat but the members elect could without q violation of the statutes say what they are going to do about it. But they are not saying. They only know that whatever they may do will not be popular and satis- factory to both wings or rather to the many wings of the party. The demo- cratic central committee is standing by Mir. Dysart and laying down" on the board. Mir. Dysart is viewing the thing with complacence.

half of Graham county has always stubbornly opposed division but the town of Stafford is now convinced that it can secure the removal of the county seat from Solomonville in no other way, and is therefore favorable to the project. The majority of the population of Graham county, as it now stands, resides in the extreme east end, necessitating a journey of from forty-five to sixty miles over a desert road to the county seat. This has long been the occasion of much dissatisfac- tion and threats have often been made that the county seat would be re- moved to Clifton, but no actual effort has ever been made. The assessed property valuation of the county slight ly exceeds four million dollars. H. B. Rice, member of the council, and Gus Williams and W. T. Webb, members of the assembly from this county, are all said to favor the project.
