CITY COUNCIL MEETING
Bids Of Ten Paving Concern Opened
VIII Meet Again This Afternoon
for Further Consideration.

The City Council met at Z o'clock
last night and opened the bids of ten
paving concerns on the Main street
paving work. All aldermen and the
Mayor were present and each bid was
opened by the secretary, the certified
check for $4,000 accompanying each
bid was examined and the bid read.
Owing to the fact that the bids en-
brace some twenty-three propositions
in various kinds of paving, specifica-
tions, curbing, grading, ETC., the task of
tabulating the bids is a difficult one,
and until this is done the Council have
no intelligent idea of what the actual
cost will be.
The tabulations are being made by
the engineers and the Council will
meet at 5 this afternoon to hear the
results announced by the engineers,
and further consider the features of
the various bids with regard to award
ing the contract for the work.
