WILL BIDDERS APP
PEAR FOR THE TWO
BIC LOCAL JOBS?
This Is a Question That Is Up
permoSt in Minds of Men,
bers of the Board of Works
At Present Time.
OPINIONS DIFFER AS
TO THE LIKELIHOOD.
Bids Will Be Opened August 9
On the West Side Sewer
And Also for West Second
Street Improvements.

1t is predicted on all sides that on
August O. president c. w. Merrill and
his associates on the board of works,
will join in the song, Friday is my
Jonah Day. infringing on the rights
of "The Time. The Place and The
Girl" as on that date, bids will be
sition for the third time, a little job
which amounts to $4,000. If the old
adage that third time is always a
charm holds good, the Aboard men,
bers feel safe This is only portion
of the boards troubles. however, for on
that auspicious occasion another little
package will also be opened, which
will or will not contain bids for S40.-
600 Improvement on Northwest Second
street. Since contractors all over the
state gave the West Side sewer propo-
when bids were to have been opened,
the opinion prevails in some minds
that there will be the same trouble in
getting contractors to bid on the West
Second street Improvement.
The board of works. however, feels
that there will be no trouble in secur-
ing bids on both jobs. President Mer-
rill says that he has received letter
from ID. j. Shafer. large sewer con-
tractor of Fremont, Mich. asking if
the West Side sewer contract had been
let. and If not he wants to bid on the
job when bids are opened the next
CITE La+ he ;r
completing an exceptionally large job
in his own state. and wants to take up
with another Immediately upon the
conclusion of the work in the north
c. NJ Kirkpatrick of Greenfield, Ind,
has also expressed his intention of
bidding on the sewer proposition.
Are Two Separate Jobs.
Although there will be much sewer
work to be done in connection with
the opening of North West Second
street, it is hardly probable that the
same contractor will secure both jobs,
although it is not definitely known.
The bids for the two jobs will be sepa-
rate as both are advertised in such
manner and are two separate PROPOSE
tions entirely. The West Second
street improvement calls for number
of sewers in adjacent territory and
much street Improvement. The rail-
road will erect the bridgework for the
viaduct, the city carrying the burden
for all other improvements in connec-
tion with this job. A larger per cent
of the money derived for this improve
ment. it is said, will be raised from
public Improvement bonds.
Mr.. Merrill stated that he thought.
owing to the lateness of the season.
that many of the foremost contractors
in this section of the country. are now
completing large jobs and would by
August o. be ready to consider work
elsewhere. The size of both Richmond
jobs is not to be sneezed at. accord
ing to Mr.. Merrill. "A goodly num-
Der of contractors have inquired about

TER ALSO PRESENT. HAWLEY
GETS A BIG AUDIENCE.

Boise, Idaho. July 2O.-Before final
commenced Friday, Judge Fremont
Wood notified counsel that the jury
will be instructed. when the case is
submitted. totally to disregard the tes-
timony introduced by the defense to
prove that the deportation of miners
the demolitions of the union stores
and the acts of Pinkcrton detectives in
the Cripple Creek strike were a part
of a mine owners conspiracy.
This ruling takes out of the hands
of the jury all evidence on which the
defense relied to establish a counter
conspiracy to that charged to the West
elm Federation of Miners. The court
said. in giving this notice, that the du-
ty which he was compelled to perform
was an unpleasant one. but that the de-
fense had failed to connect these de-
portations and other things with any
conspiracy, and therefore they have no
place in the testimony which the jury
is to consider.

Judge Wood, ''the defense has not
shown that the acts complained of were

connected with counter conspiracy.
The testimony adduced IN relation to

for the consideration of the jury. that

Of course, all the lawyers in town

number of clergymen of different de-

HawIey Starts Argument.
Scores of ladies sat through the long
hot afternoon. giving close attention TO
the arguments of Hawley With the
usual complimentary and congratula-
tory remarks to the jury, Hawley said
he was glad that the beginning of the
end of this great trial is at hand. He
asked the jurors to hear with con-
science the arguments that were to be
made and urged that they give their
careful consideration TO the state
ments that are to be made. If the law
yors take up too much time and the ar
gument became tedious. Hawley beg
ged the jury to be patient with him
and the other attorneys. as this was
the most important case Of modern
history, as well as the most farreach-
