COUNTY TO BUILD
IRVINE Pike ITSELF.
All Bids Rejected For Contract
Wcrk AS $4,000 Was Far
Beyond Available Fund

The lowest bid for reconstruc-
ton of the Irvine pike out of
Richmond to the Estiil county line
was so out of proportion to the
amount that the Fiscal Court has
to spend for this road, that at its
meeting this week, the court re-
jected all bids. 1t was then de-
clded to have the county do the
reconstruction work itself, bv
which is known as "force ac-
count" just as the Red House
pike was built. County Engineer
J, G- Baxter will employ a force
OF men and build the pike under
the direction Of the court. =
The bids for building the Irvine
pike by contract were offered in
TWO sections. There were three
bids for the concrete work. The
lowest was that of G.. NJ. Coving-
ton, OF Russellville, and was for
$29, ,382.S1. There was but one
Dld lOl IOdu Wy VI IA. was SUD-
mitted by the Alex Stabler Com
pany, Of St. Mathews. The figures
on it were for S58,925.35. making
total for the work on the road
OF $80.248.16.
The county has about 5000
to spend On this road. which

comes from the state aid fund.
makes about $4,000 available and
the court didn't see for the life Of
it how it could let an $S8,O00 con-
tract with only $4,000 to spend
on it. 1t believes that good re-
suits can be obtained by building
the road itself, for the Red House
pike is almost a model for that
sort Of obstruction, so as soon as
the weather opens up, work will
start uDon the Irvine pike by this
method.
