: COTTON 'wE1cHERs CON.
TIlACT.


The adjustment of the contract be-
tween the county and the Sumter Cot
ton Warehouse Company was made
on Tuesday between the weighers ard
the company to the satisfaction of
both parties. The minutes of the
meeting referring to this part of the
board meeting are as follows, being
published by request Of those concern
led:
That part OF the minutes Of July
9TH. relating to the cotton platform
contract. was read for information.
ME- Thompson said that he had not
|received . notice from Mr.. Lennon
TN time to attend that meeting. He
and Mr.. Ingram declared that the
minutes contained statements which
were damaging to their character,
by insinuating Of wrong doing, and
asked that the derogatory words he
|expunged.
Mr.. H. c. Haynsworth denied that
he had intended any reflection upon
the honesty or integrity of the
weighers; nor did he charge that
the contract had been tAnpered With
An a discrsditable manner. He re-
called the fact that he had rejected
the first contract. written by the
clerk Of the board. thereupon he had
prepared a contract which the weigh
ers rejected. Afterwards the weigh
ers submitted third contract, in
which cotton stored In any ware
house was exempted from the Gus
tomary fee Of 2 cents per bale;
whereas the Sumter Cotton Ware
house Company had not consented to
such exemption on cotton stored
with them; bat had agreed to ex-
empt cotton In warehouses other
than their own. He had inadver-
tently overlooked the broader scope
OF exception when the contract was
executed. Hence his statement that
he had no knowledge of its inser-
ton, and had not consented thereto.
His appearance before the commits
sioners was not for the purpose OF
making any charge against the
weighers, but merely to have an
oversight corrected.
The question was discussed at
length. and a mutual understanding
having been reached, the board re.
ferred the matter at issue to the
weishers and warehouse directors.
for settlement among. themselves, by
making such changes In the contract
as would properly express the terms
OF their agreement. ..s.. :.

In response to inquiries regarding
the material to be used for surfacing
the good roads under the proposed
bond issue in Polk county, the follow
ing information is taken from the
specifications on which the Contrac-
tors bids are based.
"Wear Surface"
Upon the foundation, or binder
course where called for in the pro-
posal and as previously specified, and
after being thoroughly cleansed of all
foreign matter, shall be laid the sur
face course or wearing surface. This
shall be prepared with materials as
hereinafter specified. 1t shall be
hauled to the work in wagons covered
with canvas or other suitable cover
ings. 1t shall leave the plant at a
temperature of between $50 degrees
and 1926 degrees Fahrenheit, as direct
ed by the engineers and shall be at
a temperature of not less than $50 de-
grees Fahrenheit, when delivered on
the work. Should a portable machine
be used, and in the Judgment of the
Engineers the same is close enough
to the work, it may be hauled in push
carts or horse carts. Upon arriving
at the place where it is to be used,
it shall be dumped upon large dump
ing boards at such a distance from
the work that all of the mixture must
be turned and distributed to the
place where 1t is to be raked. 1t shall
be spread while hot to such a depth
on the binder course or the founda-
ton, which must be thoroughly dry,
free from leaves and other foreign
matter, that after receiving its ulti-
mate compression by rolling, it shall
have a thickness of not ess than that
called for in the proposal. The init
ial compression may be effected by
means of a small roller, after which
a small amount of mineral dust shall
be spread over the surface. The fl
nal compression shall be effected by
a steam roller, the equivalent of not
less than $50 pounds per running inch
width. Rolling must be steadily kept
up and continued until all roller
marks shall disappear. and the sur.
face shall give indications of no
further compressibility.
Preparation Of the Surface Mixture.
The surface mixture shall consist
of asphalt cement, stone dust and
and sand, as hereinafter specified,
proportional by weight so that the
resulting mixture will contain average
proportions of the whole mixture as
follows:
