SEWER PROBLEM
NEARS SOLUTION
DEFINITE ACTION EXPECTED
NEXT MONDAY
Reasonable Time" Given Stansbury
G. Powell VIII Expire on That
Day, When Move by City viii
Be Made

by Monday the city probably will be
in a position to do something on the
outfall sewer" said Assistant City At
torney Hewitt yesterday.
BY Monday the city attorney believes
that the reasonable time" given to
Stansbury e. Powell to answer the let
ter sent Tuesday by City Engineer
Stafford will have expired and the city
then will be able to declare the con-
tract forfeited. The contractors have
remained silent as far as any official
notification is concerned, and the con-
tractors attorneys will not directly ad-
init that they have thrown up the con-
tract.
When the contract is declared for
feited the board of public works will
be instructed to advertise for bids for
completing the portion of section that
has been left unfinished by the con-
tractors. This will have to be done in
the regular way that bids for all con-
tracts are let or the city will have to
do the work by hiring laborers and as
sumo the contract itself.
There is no provision in the law for
the city accepting the proposition made
to the board of public works by the AL
sop Engineering and Construction COM
pany "Wednesday. The board believes
this proposition a fair one, but 1t is
compelled by law to advertise for bids
unless it does the work itself.
The Alsop company has offered to
finish the uncompleted portion OF Sec
tion and take it's pay in one of three
ways. either by fiat bid of 1851 $3.50,
actual cost plus 25 per cent, or actual
cost plus a lump sum of $4,000.
Dan Kits, living at Bell, Los Ange-
les county, yesterday wrote the board
of public works that he believed he
could finish the outfall sewer and he
asked for an interview with the board
He gave no intimation of his plan for
doing the work.

Sometimes?

If so, it will interest you to
know that it can be stopped
with DR.. Miles Pain Pills;
and without any bad after
effects, and this without dan
ger of forming drug habit or
having your stomach disar-
ranged. They positively con-
tain no opium, morphine, CO.
caine, chloral, ether or chloro-
form in any form. DR.. Miles
Anti-Pain Pills relieve pain,
and leave only sense of relief.
The reason for this is explained
by the fact that headache comes
from tired, irritable, turbulent,
over-taXed brain nerves, Anti
Pain Pills soothe and strength
en- these nerves, thus removing
the cause. They are harmless
when taken as directed.
I'VE use DR.. Miles Anti Pain Pills

think that there is nothing that viii
equal them. They Will cure the
