NO COMPETITIVE
BIDS ASKED FOR

Home Loan, $3.50 and 500 to fur
nish bonds.
1t will be remembered that at the
sale the usual tactics of bond houses,
whose business 1t is to buy the bonds
as cheaply as possible, consequently
making as much profit as possible,
were followed. Representatives of
the various Denver houses, whom the
commission seems to have so much
confidence in, came to Grand juno
tion upon the day of the sale and
used every possible influence to shut
out bidders from outside the state.
When they learned that bids were in
from outside the state, they immedi-
ately got into telephone communica-
tion with their houses in Denver and
began to revise their plans and bids.
At s O'Clock on the evening of the
opening of the bids the Office of the
school district was full of bidders.
The representatives of three Denver
houses came before the railing and
begged and pleaded with the school
board to reject all sealed bids, and
throw the matter open to competitive
bidding at auction. The board was
advised, having advertised for bids,
that they could not legally do this,
and would not have done it in any
event, because it was clearly apparent
that there was an agreement between
the bond-buying firms to get the
bonds for less than they were worth.
Finally, after great deal of hesi-
tation, they completed their bids, and
James H. Causey G Company paid
1,394.50 premium, also accrued in
terest to date of delivery, cost of
printing the bonds and the cost of
their attorneys opinion. for 5 per
cent bond of School District No. l.
This demonstrated most clearly the
benefits of competitive bidding.
1t is only necessary to point to the
examples set by the United States
government, the city of New York,
the city of Chicago and all the great
civic organizations, whose business
calls upon them frequently to issue
bonds, for support of the necessity OF
submitting same to bids.

GARDEN THAT IRVING LOVED.
Writer'S Pride and Pleasure In Old.
Fashioned Grounds at ~.
In sunnyslde.

The gardens at Sunnyside, planned
by Washington Irving, followed the old
fashioned order. He loved riot OF
color, and the plants and flowers which
he frequently cultivated and watered
repaid him with their best. Over the
porch clambered vines that he trained
with his own hand. One of these,
brought by friend from Abbotsford,
and said to have been taken there
from Melrose abbey, was his particu-
lar delight. 1t climbs there still, shad-
ing the porch and the iron porch chair
and that, too, is therein which Irv-
ing used to sit in the long drowsy sum-
mer afternoons reading book.
But the gardens themselves have
disappeared in more formal paintings.
Sunnyside, also, under the radical i'm.
provements ordered by the authors
grand-nephew, is scarcely recognizable
for the house that Irving left. While
still occupied by descendants of the
author, II is no longer their property.

Whlte-Eaced Girls.

Powder is worn more than usual
this spring. This fashion note can
be observed on the faces of the aver
age girl from IS to 23 years old any
where in town, says the New York
Times. Just what or who is respon-
sible for the introduction of this pure
ly Partisan facial fad is not easily as
certained But the result is to give
the average young woman one secs
on Broadway or Fifth avenue an ef-
feet of unwholesomeness-almost
ghastliness in fact-that is decidedly
unpleasant. OF course, the observer
only has time to note that it is the
lower part of these girls faces that
is unadorned with this deathlike
mask. The upper part almost invari,
ably is hidden by the dropping brims
of the peach-basket or coal-scuttle
hats.
