mas de estar intransitable por estar

cierto sitio Sc ha hecho un estercole-

por las cercas de mallas que 10 estan

ACTION OF COMMISSIONERS ON PAVING
CONTRACT, SIXTH AVENUE, RESClNDED

himself with our laws, he stated. You
have good paving laws here and they
are better than those in Texas Even
though financial conditions make IL
most difficult to load municipal bonds
on the market at the present time,
nevertheless, Mr.. Carwle stated, IN
take the bonds Of your city, and sell
them, and it's none Of your business
to worry about them.
ITS not my fault that the con-
tract has been let in the slip-shod
manner in which it is alleged to have
been let The members Of the board
can tell whose fault it is, but ] wont
tell who il is"
A. L. Carwle, who was present at
the meeting, then was called on TO
express his opinion on the matter
Mr. .Carwile spoke in a manner which
proved beyond doubt that he had
acted in good faith, and had accepted
the contract with the belief that brick
had been included in the material with
which the street might be paved. He
said that he would not have under
any circumstances bid on asphalt and
stated that asphalt should not be con-
sidered as a paving material, as it is
worthless as such. Brick. he said
was ten times better He illustrated
in various manner the fine qualities
Of brick paving, and stated that the
difference in price between asphalt
and brick was justified, when one
considered the difference in quality
II do not want TO oppose the will
Of the citizens who will pay for the
paving" stated Mr. Carwile. III they
insist that the cost is too high, (anc
il Is not, for | would not offer an
exorbitant bid) then let it be as the
people desire. II, as is alleged the
contract has been let in an illega
manner. then there really is no con
tract.
You will note that my bid was
$1,000 less than the engineers esti.
mate, and $1,000 less than the bid Of
q competing contractor, ] never have
