should leave this community without
some one giving expression to sense OF

are losing one who has labored hard anc
earnestly for our benefit.
[ believe you have been actuated by
high sense of the duty and obligation
which every true journalist feels, pre-
bono publico
Your influence for good has been most
marked, and it is owing to your efforts
more than any other that the many i'm
provements and the general spirit OF
progress among our people is due. Fol
one, | wish you every success and hap
piness in whatever new field OF eflori
your path may lead.
In conclusion. | wish to say Il word
in regard to your successors; they are
coming to lis with long established re
putation as upright Christian gentlemen

munity, and feel sure, from what J

clty's public schools for $4.95 ton, IL
out with n protest against awarding tho
contract TO tho Weber Coal company
for Park City coal at $3.50 ton. de-
livercd here on cars,
The bid wag not submitted in the pre-
scribed time. Mr., Morris says. and was
was required with other bids. Tho city

for q hearing before the board before the
contract finally is let to the park CITY

Ing:
Honorable Members of the City Board
Of Education. City-Gcntemen:
81 respectfully enter a protest against
the awarding Of the coal supply for the
coming senson to the Weber Coal COM
pany for the following reason;
"The bid OF the said Weber Coal COM
pany was not submitted TO the board
within tho prescribed time,
Yours very respectfully,
RICHARD z. MOREIS.'
Not Fighting Board.
"I am not fighting tho board of edu-
peting with other coal dealers and coal
companies" said Mr. Morris Monday.
'"rhc board advertised for bids and I
submitted the low bid-30 cents a ton
lower than any OF the other dealers.
The board rejected all the bids and then
accepted bid several days later from
the Weber Coal company, which was
made under the same advertisement but
not within the prescribed time nor under
the prescribed conditions, for the COM
pany failed TO accompany its bid with a
certified check to insure its faithfulness
in entering into the contract, which calls
for a bond OF $4,000.
What | want Is an equal chance with
the Weber Coal company. I believe that
the board should readvertisc for bids and
give the local firms n chance 10 compete
with the Weber Coal company"
The Weber Coal company. II Is UNDER
stood is ready TO file q bond in the sum
Of $4,000 for the faithful performance OF
the contract.
Some consumers have taken the Weber
company's offer to furnish mine run coal
at $3.50 ton TO mean that the back
OF the coal combine Is broken and that
the price will drop. but retail dealers
say this construction OF the matter Is
erroneous. The Weber company, other
dealers say has no facilities to deliver
coal AT retail and is selling only in
wholesale lots. agreeing only to deliver
the fuel on the ears, leaving ~ up TO the
purchaser to complete the delivery.
Tie state coal mine inspector also has
predicted n shortage OF cars, and II
this prediction materializes the price will
advance, dealers hold.
