A Good Precedent.


The Roebling-, contractors for plac
ing the cables on East River bridge,
New ! 0rk, IN ten months time, and
agreeing t. forfeit : 600 day for all
the time consumed over the date
agreed upon FOR their completion, are
now in hot water. The ten months
time expired, and they were given an
commissioner, until April Goth of
this year. The work was not hur-
ried, the contractors doubtless relying
upon securing another, or still other,
extensions for the mere asking. A
new bridge commissioner has been ap.
pointed, however, and now the con-
tractors are appalled, by the notfca-
ton that they must have the work
completed on time, or pay the penalty.
1t Is estimated that it will take at
least thirty days more than the new
limit to complete the work, which
might have been completed under that

served from the beginning OF their
work.
The Roeblings think that they have
a grievance, as does Contractor Goss,
in construction OF our capitol annex,
but they will find if the executors of
the law do their part, that a contract
made for public works is something
more than leverage to extract money
from the public Golfers.
While the capitol contract may not
specifically provide for daily forfei-
ture for failure to complete the edifice

in the building, the obligation to com.
plete it in time is assured by bond,
which the commission may call into
requisition for expedition OF the work il
it is clearly shown that the contractor
by his leisurely methods, will defeat
one of the principal obligations of the
contract. The Commission should
bear in mind that it is the public in
terest they are sworn to subserve and
that no concession may be made to
the contractor which is not sustained
by some unavoidable contingency arts.
ing which makes the time limit abso-
lutely impossible. This is not the
case with Contractor GOss. He has
had ample time to have secured all
necessary material - notwithstanding
unusual trade conditions-had he not
like the Roeblings, expected to obtain
concessions from the overseers of the
work.

HOW SHAW MADE MONEY

Austin, Tex. Dec Ex-Governor
Leslie NJ. Shaw. who has been ap.
pointed Secretary of the Treasury by
the President, is another person OF
national prominence who has made a
big fortune out of the Beaumont oil
discovery. Governor Shaw was one OF
the pioneers in the development Of the
Tice-growing industry in western Louis
lana and eastern Texas.
Through the efforts OF Governor
Shaw and associates, large tracts Of
rice lands around Orange and Beau.
mont Tex, were developed by Iowa
colonists, and when the oil discovery
was made at Beaumont. ten months
ago. they quickly profited by the in
creased value of their lands when
doubled many times within few
weeks. In addition to his wealth, de-
rived from this rapid increase in the
value of his lands, Governor Shaw Is
actively interested in several large oil
companies which are operating extern
siyely in the Beaumont fields.
II was stated here today by men who
are acquainted with Governor Shaw's
holdings around Beaumont that the
oil discovery has brought him a for
tune of not less than 100000. He had
the good fortune to be in on the ground
floor. so far as owning prospective oil
lands in that district was concerned
