FOR GREATER MANI1OWOC.

At meeting OF the officers OF the
Citizens Association held last week the
new spirit which the big banquet has
started was evidenced in the enthusi-
asm shown in preparing definite plan
of campaign in the interests OF the
city. The big things to which immed-
late attention will be given are each
in charge of committee as follows:
Charles Frazier, Chair
man, A. p. Schenian, A. j. Torrison,
Jno. Kellner, Frank Hoffman, G. w.
Kennedy, Jno. Wuellner, HI. G. Schuet-
te, Anton Kerscher and Geo. Auermil-
ler.
For Harbor of Refuge-B. j. Demp-
sey, Chairman, A. L. Nash, A. j. Aut-
on, Emil Baensch and DR.. Louis Fal-
ge.
Reception for Chicago Club Commit
tee-Judge A. H. Schmidt, Chairman,
Paul Schuette, r. G. Plumb, j. G..
johnson, and VIM. Rathsack.
TO Advertise City Officers and Board
of Directors of association.
From the personnel of these com
mittees it is evident that desirable re-
suits will be obtained if snch are with
in the range of possibility.
The committee on membership plans
to see to it that every citizen of the
city who can reasonably be expected to
help in the work will be apprised of
his duty and enrolled as member, if
possible. The pleas for united action
made at the banquet are being put into
practice.
To have Manitowoc appointed har-
Dor of refuge by the federal govern
ment would be big thing for the
city, and natural and logical one from
our position. 1t would relieve the city
of much of the expense of maintaining
the inner harbor.
The advertising campaign is in good
hands and the chances for beneficial re-
suits are incalculable.
The Chicago Manitowoc Club com
mittee will be here March 5th when
the matter of the clubs reception next
summer will be taken up.
Taking advantage of the new public
sentiment following the banquet while
the same was still at its height and the
effort to keep it going by having de-
finite working plans will undoubtedly
rebound to the good of the city.

LOCAL CONCERN LOWEST.

Tuesday morning at the city hall
the bids for the big paving job to be
done here this year were opened. The
Schuette Cement Construction Co., of
which Henry f. Murphy is manager,
had the lowest bid on the complete
contract. Their bid for $4,000 square
yards of brick paving was Sl.973 per
yard. The city board of public works
had recommended brick paving. The
figures of all bidders taken together
are quite complicated there being bids
for the whole job and for each street
separately and in each of several kinds
of paving. Separate bids were offered
for different kinds of paving brick.
Many contractors from about the state
were present. Bids for brick paving
were all near $500 per yard. The
Schuette Co. bids using Metropolitan
or PEBBLES brick were as follows:
10th-Commercia SITS. $l.925 1.93
Washington street los 1885
S. 1Oth-Quay streets 1915 1.9S
Jay-9th streets 1.96 1866
Whole Job 1865 1.9S
The board of public works having
the matter in charge will report the
results to the council and it is expected
that the matter of letting the contract
will shortly be settled. The city en-
uipaer had octima tod tho poct at 20 M
per yard. Eighth street nine years
ago cost 81. rs per yard but that figure
did not include excavating as do the
the present bids.
