TO CARE
FOR CITY GARBAGE
WITHOUT CHARGE

Is the city of Grand Junction pay
ing entirely too much for the hand
ling OF the garbage work of the mu-
nicipality? 1t is claimed by some
people that such is the case and it is
reported today that at the next meet
ing of the commissioners protests
will be filed against the continuance
OF the present policy OF paying the
city scavenger or garbage collector
the sum of 800 monthly. in view of
the contention made by some that one
responsible party has offered to do
the work for $500 per year. and that
still another has offered to handle
the work free of charge for the city
itself If given to him on a long time
contract, and If he il given protec-
tion or license against private gar
bage collectors.
Several citizens are contending
that this work should be let out to
the lowest bidder, instead of being
assigned at the option of one or
more of the city commissioners.
A. C. Schwenker is the holder OF
the contract for this work at this
time aud has had it for several years.
The matter is liable to be the cause
of quite spirited controversy at the
next meeting of the city commits
sioners.
