to have been established. He found no

was not legally adopted under the pro-
visions of both the old and new char

Another objection is that the meat-

At the last meeting of the Council
a report was given by Councilman
Mather that tho city could do it‘s own
work on the South Mslnvstrcet sewer
and save money. and in accordance
to ibis plan the work was started.

Mothers opinion, because every one
knows that. you csn not obtain the
results by day work as you can by
contract. if the public were of this
opinion there would he no contract
work sud everything‘would be doné
by day work.

opinion it was verypoorly managed.
