That was a pretty raw proceedings on the part of the Board of Publi.1 Works in readvertising for bids for the construction of the City creek pipe line, which is now being laid by P. J. Moran. Three bids were received, and Morans was the highest, about $54,000, while the lowest was about $48,000. Even Dooly could not sanction giving the contract to the highest bidder directly, but Doolys favorite contractor had to be looked after. The bids were laid over for a day or two without action. Then it was decided that the bids were all too high. They were rejected and new' proposals called for. Moran then slipped in his bid $1400 lower than the lowest bid on the first call, and he was promptly awarded the contract. Contractors have come to the conclusion that it is no use to bid against Doolys favorite contractor. He will win out by some means, they say, and they are only made buffets for him. Competition for city work is about at an end. and the proposition to make Moran public contractor by legislative enactment is unnecessary. Strange as it may seem, many people of the Board of Public Works are appointed by the Mayor. Some otherwise people think they are elected by the voters. If the voters could only get a chance at Dooly, they wouldnt do a thing to him. dont know that the members well-inform- ed VOX POPULX VOX DEI. business interests here are concerned, his power of attorney left behind goes, but when a gentleman asks for a political contribution he is so far as his Oh, tell us, prophet, sage or preacher, is the time Ever to dawn when men, weak in them- selves but mighty As they stand at Freedoms sacred shrine, the ballot box.
