SAVES $4,000 ON BRIDGES.
Dubuque County Profits BY New Sys-
tenn Of Bridge Letting.


Dubuque, March 15.-Dubuuue coun-
ty held the greatest bridge letting
Wednesday ever held in this part of
the state. Twenty-three bids were sub
mitted for 1872 bridges and culverts.
The work went to J. j. Leonard for
100, unit price Of $11.72. Those
in positions to know estimate that this
price Is 81 below the former average
price of such work. Figured on basis
of $1S.72 Dubuque county saved $2O.-
3S5 over what the same work would
have cost under former prices.
1t required three hours to read the
bids. The bidding was so close that
during the reading It was impossible
to form an opinion as to who was low
bidder. On twelve different culverts the
low bids of competing firms was tied.
On score of others there was only
81 or 81 difference between low man
and his next competitor j. j. Leonard
was low on eightynine bridges and
culverts. He was tied for low on twelve
other structures. Gus Barni was low
on two culverts. The Clinton Bridge
and Iorn Works was low on one cul-
vert. Klinker & Co. were low on two
items. The Waterloo Construction
Company was low en- six items c. r..
Rick & Co. was low on one item. Ed
Bell was low on two items but as he
did not file a certified check, the bid
was not considered. Bessler e. Tobin
were low on three items. e. Boge was
low on one item. The Galena Iron
Works was low on two items.
The sum of the low bids was $685.
SCI. A number of bidders grouped
their proposals on different items but
Their was no grouping which gave
lower total than the sum CT the dow
individual bids. j. j. leonard had sub
mitted lump sum for the entire work
of SS6,1OO. This was but $239 above
the total of the low individual bids.
Ths lump DID was accepted ny the
board on the ground that the saving in
mileage Of board members and ensi-
neer and on the work of inspection
would be more than saved by having
the work done by one contractor. VINO
would keep his crews working close to-
gether instead of scattered in all parts
of the county as would be the case
were the work divided among dozen
bidders.
The price Of s11.72 per cubic yard is
considered close price for work I'M
der Dubuque county conditions. The
culvert work is scattered iE all parts
of the county and many OF the jobs are
small Prices in Dubuque county have
run from s1S to $50 per cubic yard,
with an estimated general average OF
1882. There are ISIS cubic yards in
the present contract and an average OF
81 per cubic yard would make total
saving to the county Of $20,as5. Coun-
ty Engineer Turlay had estimated the
work to cost sS9,719 The figures Sc
cured is $3.50 below Its estimated cost
and considering the fact that there are
1872 bridges and culverts, all small,
scattered over the entire county, and
that the cost of hauling on the work
will be unusually heavy, the price is
considered remarkably low.

LIVESTOCK EPIDEMIC CLAIMS
MUCH STOCK in EASTERN
SECTION OF STATE.
STATE VETERINARIAN WINS
FIGHT AGAINST DISEASE
Strict Quarantine Regulations and
Slaughter Of Infected lfsrds Prevent
Loss Of All Cattle and Hogs in State
Policy Strongly Antasonixed by
stoekmsn.

Council Bluffs, March 15-Almost H.
900 head Of stock Of all kinds have been
killed and their bodies destroyed In
the eastern portion Of the state Of Iowa
in the strenuous and successful effort
by State Veterinarian James !. Glib
son Of Des Moines, to stamp out thet
dreaded foot and mouth disease before
! it should have secured permanent
foothold i'm Iowa. Had the disease ever
secured a permanent hold on the stock
of the state, it would ultimately have
implicitly wiped out the dairying in
dustry, and would have cost the far
mers OF the state, as individuals, many
times the amount that it will now cost
the state as a whole. in paying for the
des troyed animals.
Up until last Sunday, according to
figures secured by DR.. D. H. Miller, as
sistant state veterinarian with head
quarters in this city, who was actively
engaged in the stubborn fight against
the inroads of the aphthous fever dur
ing much of the time that it was being
waged in the eastern part Of the state,
1859 head of cattle. 80 sheep and 1925
head of swine were ordered destroyed.
During the past week, another herd be-
longing to farmer in Buchanan coun-
ty was to have been slaughtered.
All in Eastern Iowa.
This makes total of 1896 head Of
stock that was slaughtered, aside from
the Buchanan county herd, under or
ders from the state veterinarian and
his assistants. This stock was the
property of forty-seven different farm
ers. They. however, will not bear the
brunt of the loss, as they will be reim-,
hnrsed for the appraised value of the
stock killed by the state. and national
governments.
All the loss occurred in the extreme
eastern part of the state, as that was
the only section where the aphous
fever made any appearance at all. No
where west of the eastern third of the
state was there single case of the
foot and mouth disease at any time
during its appearance in the state.
All kinds of pressure was brought to
bearing during the campaign aginst the
disease to have DR.. Gibson and his as
sistants abandon the fight. but he real
lied something Of what it would cost
the state in the years to come were the
plague to become settled upon the
Hawkeye herds, and he refused to let
anything interfere with his determine
ton to stamp out the disease in it's in
cipiency.
