BROKEN BOW LETS CONTRACT
FOR WATER AND LIGHT PLANT

BROKEN BOW, Neb., July s.-(specialo
Bids for the building of the municipal
water and electric power plant we're
opened by the council and acted upon at
a special session, the result being that
the Alamo Engine and Supply company
of Omaha was awarded the contract for
$15764 This price does not include orna-
mental street lighting, as was originally
intended. which means that the system to
be installed by the city will be similar to
that now in use. Fifteen bids were filed
but only four were considered. The origi-
nal bid of the Alamo people was S2O,5s2'
including the ornamental lighting. but as
the city had only $1,000 to spend the cleo
trolier proposition was cut out in order
10 get down to the required amount.

damages unless State Engineer Johnson
