SUPERVISORS PROCEEDINGS
An Unusually Large Amount Of Business
Was Transacted in Two.Days Session.

Continued from last week.
Contract to sink deep well in court
house yard was let to Carloss Well
Co. for 1925 per foot for 3-inch pipe,
the well to be completed by Aug. 8.
ORDINANCE.
Whereas, under the road ordinances
controlling the present contracts, no
forfeiture was to follow failure to
have all roads up to specifications at
the end of the first quarter, but at the
end of the second and subsequent
quarters a forfeiture was to attach
But, whereas weather conditions have
been unprecedented, as evidence the
condition of crops, the Board, after
careful consideration, and inquiry of
many citizens, is of the opinion that
to enforce the forfeiture of pay on all
roads not up to specifications now,
would result, not onlysin serious in
jury to the contractors, but would be
equally injurious to the people of the
county. For while the Board has the
right to cause contractors to. forfeit
their pay, to remove. them, and to
cause suit brought on their bonds, no
one or all of these actions will get
roads worked, but would only result
in number of suits on bond and the
throwing up of contracts, with the
possible danger of having to pay much
more to induce others to take the
contracts, Therefore, the Board, look
ing to the best interests of all con-
cerned, doth order as follows: 1t ap-
pearing that many roads in the coun-
ty are not up to contract, but in many
instances, this was due to no fault on
the part of the contractors, therefore
the time in which the roads may be
brought up to specifcations-is extend
ed to the first Monday in August,
1907, but in consideration of this con-
cession no account for the second
quarter shall be considered at this,
the July meeting, but the whole mat
ter of the second quarter is set over
to the August meeting. In reference
to accounts that were carried over,
they may be allowed now, If the
roads are up to contract, or may go
over to the August meeting under the
same conditions as accounts for the
second quarter.
