*MANDAN Sewer JOB
LARGEST CONTRACT EVER LET
IN THE WESTERN PART OF
STATE.
Eleven Firms Were Represented in
the Bidding - Large Amount Of
Work to Be Done This Summer.

Mandan Pioneer: The biggest con.
tract ever let by the city of Mandan,
and one of the biggest handed out
in the western part Of the state, was
awarded to James Kennedy Of Fargo,
Monday night when the city commits
sion, after opening bids for the sewer
system, found that Mr.. Kennedy's bid
was $1,000 lower than his nearest
competitor, and the contract, amount
ing in all to $45,S75.75, was voted to
the Fargo contractor.
For several days previous contrac'
tors from different sections had been
busy going over the plans and making
an investigation into the character of
the work. Eleven firms were repre-
scented here Monday, but only nine
of them put in a bid. The highest
bid was over SIS, 900, and there were
two bidders who were over that fig
ure. The other bids ranged mostly
above $4,000.
City Attorney Biting was instruc-
ted to draw up contract covering
the work, and this has already been

forwarded to Fargo, and should be
back soon. Mr.. Kennedy has prom
ised to ship his material out early
next week, and he expects to start ex-
cavation work by May %. The con-
tract provides for the completion of
the system by September /, though
Mr.. Kennedy does not think it will
take so long, and with good weather
hopes to turn over the job to the city
by the middle of August.

northeast. The main sewer will be
run in the alley between Main and
Fifth streets and lateral emptying in
to the main sewer will also be run
in the alleys north and south. This
will avoid tearing up the streets ev-
cry time it is desired to make a con-
.nection, a fact that will be more thor
oughly appreciated when Mandan

400 feet of IL inch pipe and 5000 feet
of 10 inch pipe.
From Seventh Ave. northeast, the
main sewer takes short cut over
through the slough south of the track
to the Heart river. Flood gates and
pumping station is provided for use
in case of high water, so the system
can be shut of from back water, and
the sewage pumped. out of the mains.
This may not be necessary one in
five years, but in case of high water
such as was experienced this spring.
the precaution taken will be found
exceedingly efacacious.
The system was planned by Engin-
eer Ray F. Wickham wha has recent
ly resigned his position at Grand
Forks to enter into mining work.

dressed the largest political gath

President James s. Sherman re-
fused to discuss President Taft's
letter to Lloyd G. Griscom, which
Is regarded as a repudiation OF
Sherman's political tactics In COM
neotion with the selection of a
temporary chairman of the New
York state republican convention.
The refusal of Sherman to dis
cuss his selection by the republi-
can state central committee after
Colonel Roosevelt's name had
been presented for the place, ls
regarded as another Indication
that the vice president will stand
pat"
Roosevelt, while addressing the
farmers here yesterday, endorsed
State Senator Frederick Dayen-
port, an insurgent, who is oppos-
ed by Sherman because Davenport
supported the direct primary
measures in the New York assem-
bly,. This is considered am indi-
cation that the colonel has NO
idea of dropping the fight.

COMMISSION
SURE IS
GREEN

If the cows don't eat Tacoma's
commission it is because the city
ordinance has banished dairies
from the city Hmits-for the COM
mission is certainly green enough
to attract bovine attention.
While it is paying $2,000,000 to
build a great water system which
must be paid from out of the re-
ceipts for water, it this morning
fell into a trap laid by the North
Springs Water COMPANY and Mr..
Gill, the real estate speculator,
and voted a ten-year permit turn
ing over a lot of valuable new
territory to the private water con-
cern.
Gill laid out Seaview addition
in the North End and put in wa
ter mains. He, of course, added
the cost of the water mains to the
lots when he sold them. Then
he began scheming to sell them
again. The city has no mains
there, so he connected up with
the North Springs plant. 1t is
furnishing water now to the peo-
pie on the lines, but it has no per-
nit To get permit Gill and the
company fixed 1t up that the COM
pany should pay Gill for the
mains and then the city would be
asked to give a permit to run as
long as it's present franchise,
which is about 10 years.
And the commission agreed to
it all this morning.
Thus Gill will get paid for lay
ing water mains twice. The North
Springs Water company will get
a lot of new territory and the city
will get left.
