William J. Flynn, head of the United

Yesterday for a conference with ].
H. DAILY, Omaha special agent for
the bureau.
No further steps against Omaha

Deportations, and relentless pur-

John A. Bruce, city engineer,
stated yesterday that bitulithic paw
ing, the kinG approved by the county
commissioners for county road pay
ing, is not included in the citys
specifications used by contractors,
because it is a patented paving and
offers no opportunity for wide COM
petition,
He also asserted that the bids Of
fered on bitulithic carry large
margin of promotion expense. He
offered the following statement on
the subject: i,
Il do not wish to be understood
as saying that bitulithic is not a
desirable paving when properly laid,
but my criticism is that the county
is paying too much for this class OF
paving when it pays $4.35 yard.
Same Materials Used.
"Our paving specifications do not
include bitulithic because this is a
patent surface and only one or two
contractors in state have the inside
track on this form of paving. We
have in our specifications class OF
paving known as asphaltic concrete,
which is practically as serviceable
as bitulithic and is as near as pos
sible to that paving without in
fringing on the patent.
THE materials used in asphaltic
concrete and bitulithic are the same,
except that in the case of bitulithic
mixture the sizes of stone used with
asphaltic cement range from one

inch to sand, while in asphaltic con-
crete mixture the stone ranges from
half an inch to sand. The btu
lithic mixture is produced according
to a scientific method which con-
stitutes the patent.
"Asphaltic concrete can be laid for
nearly 81 per yard less, as our recent
bids will show. On February 10
our highest bid on asphaltic con-
crete was 1884 and on February II
it was $685..
County Paying too Much.
NO bitulithic paving has been
laid in Omaha and the only place
where it has been laid in Nebraska,
to my best information, was at Co.
lumbus, Neb., about three years ago.
William Horrabin of Des Moines
and James Horrabin of Iowa City
control the Iowa field and I under
stand that the Allied Contractors
have the Nebraska field. The patent
is owned by the Warren Bros. Co.
of Massachusetts,.
There is a general condition that
cnly one or two contractors in a
state are favored by the Warren peo-
pie.
II contend that the county is pay
ing too much for this pavement
when it pays $4.35 per yard. There
is too much of a margin for promo
ton expense. I do not know how
that promotion expense is used"

REPUBLICANS WIN
GREAT VICTORY
CARRY ALL OF NORTHERN STATES
Even Southern States PclIed Big Vote
for Republicans and Socialists. Re-
pubIicans VIII Have Good Majority
in House of Representatives.


The election Tuesday resulted in
an overwhelming victory for the Re-
publican party, every northern state
and possibly two southern states roll
ing up Republican majorities. Cox
lost his home state by big vote, and
Champ Clark, the invincible Missouri
senator, went down in defeat with
many other well known Democrats.
There is no use in trying to find a
cause or the land slide; the defeat
was overwhelming and the vanquish-
ed must accept without murmur.
The constitutional amendments in
Mississippi aroused considerable i'm
terest, though the fate of only one
has been definitely determined. The
amendment regarding Confederate
pensions passed, and the one regard
ing roads and bridges was probably
defeated.
The vote in Claiborne county was
small. However, as. one box did not
get in until this morning the commits
sioners have not declared the result.
There were about fifteen Republi-
can votes in the county, though only
about five Negroes cast their votes.
