CITY STREETS
Board of Works Awards
Contracts Running
Into Thousands.
Aigeltinger Objects, as
He Anticipates a
Long Delay.

Despite the protests of Commissioner
the Board of Public Works
through President Maestretti and Com
missioner Eagan decided at a meeting
held yesterday to go ahead with the
improvement of streets as had been de-
cided upon previous to the fire, and
bids We're awarded for the work. This
includes the paving of certain portions
of Ellis. Mission and Turk streets, as
well as less important work.
Aigeltinger announced himself as op
posed to going ahead with the work in
the burned district. stating as a reason
that it was his belief the contractors
would be unable to proceed at once
owing to the condition of the streets.
His fellow members on the commission
took the view that as this money is
ready for use and the work will give
employment to many men there should
be no delay. Accordingly bids which
were received two months ago and were
to have been opened April Is We're
taken up. The big contracts were
awarded as follows:
Ellis street, between Stockton and
Larkin, Barber Asphalt Company, s22,-
1855.
Mission street between Sixth and
Ninth same company, less than $4,000.
Turk between Mason and Hyde, same
company. s1G,629.70.
Other contracts: San Jose avenue.
opposite Alvarado street, c. S. Harney;
Twenty fifth between Harrison and
Treat avenue Western Construction
Company; Clay and Lyon, sidewalk, j.
w. McGinn; Twenty sixth and Fair
Oaks avenue, paving, Flynn & Treacy;
Harrison and Twenty first streets,
Thomas Clark; Franklin between Union
and Filbert. sidewalk, Thomas Clark;
Wallace. between Fillmore and Steiner,
sidewalk, Flynn & Treacy.
The City Engineer was instructed to
prepare new plans for the paving of
Fourth street, between Freelon and
Channel.
The Supervisors will be requested to
pass an ordinance whereby the Auditor
will be instructed to pay all demands
for work done as a result of chimney
inspection. such as the construction of
booths, the payment of these bills not
having heretofore been authorized.
The board wishes to set good ex
ample to property owners in regard to
cleaning up the streets, and the Su
pervisors are to be requested to set
aside $1,000 for removing the debris
from the City Hall on Larkin street
between Grove and McAllister.
A recommendation was made for the
expenditure of $4,000 for a sewer on
Howard. between Seventeenth and
Eighteenth streets.
Frank Schilling appeared on behalf
of St. Pauls Church, which was used
by the board after the fire. At that
time a chimney was removed, and he
requested that the board make the re-
pairs. This will probably be done.

Charged with Attempted Murder.

Thursday evening Sergeant of Rangers William Olds made an- other of his lucky captures when he arrested Pedro Miranda, want ed at Silver Bell for attempted murder. About a year and half ago, it is alleged, Miranda shot a man named Crolly at Silver Bell, the bullet striking Crolley in the back, under the shoulder, and pas sing clear through the body, but without striking a vital spot. Crol- ly recovered and is now justice of the peace at Red Rock.
 When the office. arrested Miriam da, he did not know who he had, having arrested him on suspicion of being the man who recently rob- bed Chinese store in Nogales. Miranda wore green and yellow sweater, and sweaters of that pat tern were among the goods stolen from the Chinese store. The ran ger had been on the look out for the stolen goods and apprehended Miranda for the purpose of learn ing where he got the sweater. When questioned Miranda told his name. The ranger then made no further effort to ascertain where he got the sweater, but arrested him on the more serious charge of at- tempted murder.

Legitimate Rewards of Life.
Work. Mr.. Highton said In part:
The moral for the young business
man is obvious. The higher ground
Of principle and faith is of course his
surest foundation. But, alike from
principle and expediency. unless he
expects to disappear In the morass Of
tarelessness and recklessness, he
must look to himself from the instant
his work begins until the instant II
closes. From the beginning he must
pray and seek for wisdom as his
guide, and there Is no genuine wisdom
save that which comes from above.

lect his career, and to concentrate on
fxed, and honorable purpose, re-
membering that II Is the love Of
money" not money itself, that is "the
root Of all evil" and that money hon.
cstly acquired as means and not as
an end, is not undesirable, and, as
civilization now exists, at any rate,
may be q valuable agency for right.

In subordination to the mind and the
soul and all under the sovereignty OF

mating his appetites and his passiOns.

REPUBLICAN RATIFICATION.

why under the sun should the Dem.
ocrats he left to ratify and rejoice
alone?
Don't the Republicans realize that
they carried the Legislature, and
elected the Delegate to Congress by
the largest majority that has yet hap.
peRed?
The Republicans this year met tho
Democrats and Home Rulers as a unit
on all the Islands. The division was
more evenly made than It has ever
been.
The result is few gains by the
united opposition to the Republicans,
and because the united oppositionists
have never had anything they rejoice
They have right to their share.
hut why should the Republicans
keep silent? Is II because the cleo.
ton of a Delegate and the Legislature
is such common thing that the Re.
publicans must be properly licked
and gain the victory again before they
feel that there is any necessity for q
Elorifcation?
II Republicans become grumpy over
the result of this election. what would
become of them II they were once real
ly defeated?

BRINGING BACK THE BAND.

Governor Carter believes with the
Bulletin that the way to bring back
the band Is to bring II back.
Had the members been in need OF
food while their local friends were
discussing ways and means to get
them transportation home, they
would have starved to death ere this
day.
The people are ready enough to pro.
vide the funds II 1t can be decided
what Is to be done by those In charge
of the relief fund.
The average gencrous.minded man
does not care to throw money away.
II there is money to be had from
the relief fund to which he has sub.
scribed he sees no special need for
his contributing additionally.
He simply wants to know: so that
he can give intelligently, and have his
money serve the good purpose for
which II Is intended.
The Governor has taken step
that will help out and we have no
doubt that relief fund or no relief
fund he will find the people ready TO
do their share In seeing that the band
boys do not suffer and,
That the band gets back.

what COKE SAYS
Of HOME RULE BRAINS

Editor Evening Bulletin: Your issue
OF the Sth inst. contains an article writ
ten by your special correspondent at
this place which contains references
to my attitude politically. during the
last campaign. which are not true and
I desire space sufficient to correct the
same. I am referred to In said article
as, "The real brains and the real factor
who supplied ammunition for the Home
Rulers In this and all former cam
paigns." II is not a fact that am
nowcor ever have been the brains or
factor. or any other element constitute
ing a. part OF the Home Rule party. Dur
ing the recent campaign took no part
In the meetings Of either Of the parties,
contributed nothing to the campaign
funds OF any Of the parties, and neith-
or. encourcd. aided nor advised the
Home Rulers. Being consistent DEM
ocrat and that party having no ticket
In the field, except the candidate for
Delegate to Congress, Mr.. McClanahan,
was forced to select from the various
candidates Of the Republican and Home
Rule nominees such men as | thought
would make. the best officials. these
men ] supported without regard to
whether they were Republicans or
Home Rulers. My judgment In making
this selection may have been faulty
but my intentions were good.
A further statement appearing In
your correspondents article referring
to a torch-light procession the evening
before election! at Waikiki, asserts
that the Home Rulers were headed by
T. d. Lyons, W. II. Cornwell. J. l.. Coke
and others. This statement Is abso-
lutely false. Knowing your cores
pondent personally and being charit-
ably inclined, ! prefer to believe that
this statement. while not true. was
made through ignorance rather than
from an evil desire to mislead your
readers. The truth Is. took no part
In any torch-light procession or pro-
cessions OF any kind, Of the Home Rul.
ers. that evening or any other evening
Very respectfully.
