The WGhrli Building.

The new Wehrli building is
now nearing completion, and
the beauty Of it's construction
and finish will add another mark
to the advancement and progress
of Covington in architecture.
We point with pride to the fact
that this structure is the work
Of our home builders, the Ed
gar Brothers, who have erect
ed many handsome residences
and other buildings in the par
ish, and whose work is always
commendable. The owner, Mr..
Lewis Wehrli, has but lately
erected a handsome building of
concrete, on Boston street, and
has by his enterprise and pub
lie spiritedness added much to
the Improvement Of Covington.
The new building is of red
Diana pressed brick, two stories
high. It contains eleven fine,
large, well-ventilated Offices,
which will be finished with ala
bastine, tinted with colors to
suit tenants; one reception
room, 3Ox3O feet, with ventilated
skylight, which will be finished
in white enamel ladies' and
gentlemen's toilet rooms, with
water and lavatories, all of the
latest improved patterns, and
everything gotten up in first
class style. There will be two
stairways, one on Boston and
one on Columbia street.
At the corner of the building,
IColumbia and Boston streets,
will be the barroom of Mr.. Julius
Heintz, and the commodious and
well-apportioned store adjoining
will be occupied by the firm OF
SECOND & Hebert as soon as
ready. This handsome store viii
have a frontage all of solid plate
glass and will be most attrac.
tive in appearance.
Besides other advantages, the
building offers the inducement
of being the nearest fireproof Of
1 any building in Covington, the
frames being of metal and the
sash of wired freproof glass.
We understand the law firm Of
Miller & Morgan will also have
offices in the building,

CONVICTION, La, Dec. II, 1907.

CONVICTION, LA, Dec. II, l9O'.
Editor St, Tammany Farmer:
Dear Sir-In reply to a card
published in the Covington
News, entitled "A True State
ment," signed by J. c. Beck,
Edgar Bros. and Jenkins Bros,
I would ask, in the interest of
justice, that you state that a
letter was mailed on the even
ing of the twenty-frst of Sep
tember, 1907, to each of these
gentlemen, inviting them to bid
on a two-story brick building to
be erected by the Covington
Bank and Trust Co. They were
also advised that plans and
specifications for this building
could be found at the Office of
the bank. On the same date an
advertisement was mailed to
the Daily Picayune, inviting
bids on this building. This ad-
vertisement was published daily
until October II, 1907. The
first plans and specifications for
this building were received by
us on September q, 1907
therefore we could not have
given these plans to any one
sixty days before the contract
was let. Mr.. C. D. Stewart, the
successful bidder on this build.
ing, first received these plans
and specifications on September
20, 1907. One of the signers Of
the card, "A True Statement,
never asked for plans and speci
ications; one of the others hac
all of his estimates on the job
the other signer, am reliably
informed, gave the plans he re
ceived to some one else, ant
made no effort to get an est
mate on the contract. All thesC
gentlemen had much more time
than ten days to get these plan
and specifications. AS our loca
contractors had ample time, i
they had wished to avail them
r selves of all the time they coulC
! have had to bid on this contract
and as they did not avail them
selves of this opportunity, AM
as none of them offered any BIZ
, whatever, I do not see how, il
t justice and fair play, they coul'
= expect us to award a contrac
to them when they, so far as
know, made no effort to bid o.
! the building.

The Vaudeville New Bank

The Vaudeville branch Of the
st. Tammany Banking Co., and
Savings Bank is shortly to be
erected, the plans of Mr.. Jos.
c.. Beck having been selected
from among those of competing
architects. The contract will
be let by him about the first of
January and the building be
ready for occupancy by April l,
1903.
Mr.. Beck, the architect, is a
resident Of Covington, and the
connection of his name with the
building is a guarantee that it
will be a credit to the town Of
Vaudeville.
The building, which will be
of brick. will have a pressed
brick frontage with terra Gotta
trimmings. The first floor will
contain the banking room and
stores and the second floor will
be devoted to Office rooms.

HOW nIpIHERlA Is CONTRACTED

One often hears the expression, my
child caught a severe cold which de-
veloped into diptheria, when the
truth was that the cold had simply
left the little one particularly suscept-
ible to the wandering dlptherla germ.
When Chamberlain Cough Remedy
is given it quickly cures the cold and
lessons the danger of diptheria or any
other germ disease being contracted.

WILL PRESENT The
SLOCOMB RESOLUTIONS
Enemies of Hannah Creek PROPOSE
tion on Chamber of Commerce
Directorate arc Active.

AT meeting of the Chamber of
Commerce last night a committee
consisting OF Messrs. Miller, Fry,
Hutchinson, Mack and Dean was ap-
pointed to attend the city council
meeting this evening and present the
resolutions passed at the Auditorium
mass meeting held for the purpose
of discussing the mountain water
question.
The board Of directors declined to
endorse the resolutions. This looks
a little peculiar in view of the fact
that the mass meeting by a large
majority endorsed the resolution Of
fered by e M. Slocomb, which calls
upon the city council to hold another
special election and submit the ques.
tioh Of issuing bonds not to exceed
900 for the construction of a
mountain water system. The enc
mics OF the Hannah Creek proposi-
tton on the board of directors of the
Chamber of Commerce vigorously op-
posed any action that would in the
least Indicate that the Chamber OF
Commerce indorsed the Hannah
Creek proposition, holding that the
board should maintain neutral
stand.
However, as the Chamber of Com.
merce, having called the mass meet
ing, could not do otherwise than pre-
sent the resolution passed at that
meeting to the city council. the
Chamber will offer its services to the
city council in any effort to secure {
more desirable water supply for the
city.
