TOWN TALK.

THE LATEST CHAPTER IN THAT FAMOU8 SEWER AND PAVING JOB.

It Seem* Likely lo End Without Giving .SatUfacticm to Any of the Partle# Interted—Political Matters and the Ob»tia*t« ittan who Flocks all by Himself, f.

The investigation of city contracts doesn't seem to possess that attraction for many "Which it did when the h»® and cry was first raised. The council committee is either taking a rest or, like Wiikins Micawber, is waiting for something to turn op. As the council has seen nothing wrong in any of its acts in the last year it is not to be expected that a committee of its own selection, from among its own members, is going to find fault with itself at this late day. When City Engineer Cooper was suspended until he could be Investigated it was presumed that the investigation would be prompt in its thoroughness. Justice to Mr. Cooper demanded this, but justice doesn't seem to have, much to do witii the matter, and it now seems probable that the investigation, so far as the council is concerned, will be a roaring farce similar to the opening act which was played with Contractor Mercer in the loading role. When this thing commenced every person seemed to be aefeed with a longing desire to jump on the city engineer, probably believing that while pounding him to death the really guilty would escape. At that time The Mail suggested the propriety of suspending judgment until the evidence could be hoard and sifted. Two weeks have passed since then and the public knows about as much, or less, than at the start.' There has been no ovidence to show that the engineer has been guilty of corruption or anything wreng which could be twisted into a Berablance of corruption. That he has been foolish, and has allowed himself to be placed in a wrong position by some person or persons in authority over him is apparent, but thus far there has been nothing to show that he has been dishonest. Ever since this sewer business and street paving projects have been under way The Mail has called attention to the reokiesss manner in whiclf the money of the people was being squandered. Those who were on the inside of contracts and who stood in the favor of the King extolled the council as the best the elty had over had and Mr. King as the achme of councilmanic wisdom and greatness. And so it would have continued had it not been for the fortunate discovery of alleged crookedness in letting the contract for the Qrawford street sewer extension. Then people opened their eyes and commenced to see things in their true light. And the brighter th9 light to which the acts of this council are expossd the more apparent becomes the spectacle of extravagance. The testimony shows clearly that details have never received the slightest attention, and that hundreds of thousands of dollars have been paid out on the plea of public nepessity And on very rough estimates. When it came to envying nickels and dimes in some trivial matter there has always been an ostentatious display of virtuous economy. If a saloOn kept open after eleven o'clock at night, or on Sunday if young men played cards in bar rooms or cigar stores, or If some others indulge! iu a game of billiards or pool on Sunday, heaven and earth and tho city council were Invoked to damn the metropolitan police force. But tho "mots" have been allowed a rest for a short time, until the old sore commences to ruu again in some other spot. The puritanical mind which has governed a flairs of late is scarcely excelled by the narrow contracted bigotry which impelled among Covenanters their acts of cruelty in tho days when "might was right," and only those retained their possessions who could do It by force of arms. Within a year it has been the rule that 110 man who had over offended in a certain quarter need look for or expect a favor at the hands of the council, no matter how much it might redound to the good of the people. There has been altogether too much dark ages intolerance injected into public affairs here to suit the Ideas of the people of this generation, and they are preparing to throw it oil. In the city campaign it won't be a question of saloons and gambling, but a desire to see how hard the offending heads can be hit. Both parties are alike responsible for ail that has beeto done, and neither can hope to made political capital out of the errors of the other. Each must assume its share of the responsibility, because each must bear it. a

It was somewhat of a surprise when the street commissioner came *p smiling at council meeting Tuesday night and asked that he be suspended pending an Investigation of the gravel pit scandal. The matter was debated at great length, and it finally dawnad upon the members that aa Mr. N'ehf had asked for his suspension it would be eminently proper to grant hi* request* He was, therefore* suspended. During the debate on suspension Mr. King, as a matter of course, objected. He has stood by Mr. Nehf manfully from the atari, nd "sink or awiov survl

perish," he atood by him. Incidentally Mr King took oceassion to say that the interests of the city are goffering sine® the engineer was suspended, because bad brick aw being nut into the sewer. He forgot that the work of the sewer contractors Is being superintended by the same persons now who have been looking after it ail along. And these supervisors were not appointed by Mr. Cooper, either, so he cannot be held responsible for their work. If they have been allowing the contractors to put in poor brick since this stench has been stirred up they have been doing it all along, and itis a little late in the day 'to raise the cry of "stop thief." It is about in peeping With the foolish proposition to dig up the sewers to see whether or not they have been properly laid. But to return? to Mr. Nehf, who is now oat. A special committee has his case in hand, and if he isn't overlooked in the shuffle, will receive attention. The committee went over to examine the gravel pits on Thursday and found them all there. The next step will probably be something else. Mr. Nehf has his case carefally prepared, and will show it up in the best possible light. As an evidence of\he superior quality of his gall it might be stated that he threatens to bring several libel suits. If the matter ever should,reach court there will be fun aheadjor somebody.

Now that the paving of Main street has been commenced it is to be hoped that it will be pushed with vigor until completed. That thoroughfare has been in such a state of dilapidation for several months as to demoralize those who have been compelled to use it, and any change which can be made will certainly be an improvement. Then those unsightly piles of brick are a nuisance which pedestrians and business men want to see abated. There are

very

few people

who have any idea of the magnitude of this paving contract. The Job on both streets requires 8,500,000 brick, which cost $17 per thousand delivered here, making a total of §59,500 for the brick alone. Then there will be 18,500 yards of broken stone required for ballast, which at $1.60 per yard will cost $21,600. Tho grouting will cost $9,600, the grading $5,000, andj$5,000 more was spent for machinery alone. These items foot up $100,700. The contract price is $147,914,

stone curbing, labor and profir.'vjThe most expensive portion of the job is the freight. The brick cost $7 per thousand on the cars in Obio, and cost$9 per thousand to land them in Terre Haute, and another dollar per thousand to deliver them on the streets. Contractor Klnser says that this is the first street paving contract he has over had, and that it is the first job of the kind on which he has evor made a bid, notwithstanding all statements to the contrary. '"J

As electron day draws near the excitement increases. Both parties have been getting themselves ih readiness for the great national contest, and eaoh is ready for the preliminary skirmish next month. The Democrats were first in the field, having made their nominations for councllmen last Tuesday evening. There aro fourteen to elect this spring, and as the wards are all new there has been some difficulty in the selection of timber to suit the pressing want of each particular locality. It is, however, the bent.of opinion that the selections of last Tuesday are fcood—not away above the average, or a ticket which cannot be beaten, but one which will command respect, and draw the full party vote. In the Fourth ward it is ovident an extra effort was made to dally with the Republican vote* because the nominees are exceptionally strong men and it will require strong men and united effort to defeat them, oven in the boss' own stronghold. To a casual observer it does not appear that the life of a councilman is by any means a happy one, and that is always a serious obstacle in the way of securing good men to run for the place. Thus, in the Seventh ward it required a great deal of persuasion to keep the Democratic nominee on the track, although he finally gave an unwilling consent. In the Fifth ward a similar state of affairs exists, and it is understood that if Mr. Kivits makes the race he will do it under protest. On Monday evening next the Republicans will put forward their candidates, and as they are determined to win if possible they will doubtless select their best men. There is a slight ruffie in the second ward, where Orator Stow has bobbed up again us a disturbing element. He has announced his determination to make the race at all hax&rds. He will ran as a Republican if h* can capture the primary, and independent if he can't, but run he most, and run he will in any event. This is the only ripple which threatens to disturb the placid bosom of the political sea at this time. lldll

More than usual interest is being taken in the mayorality contest this spring and 60th parties seem determined to do their best. There never has been such a serious disposition to get out good men, and as it is conceded that the successful man will win on his merits create*re will be exercised in the

The democrats will nominate

are

%ERRE HAUTE, IND.,SATURDAY EVENING, APRIL 9,1892,

next Tuesday evening. They have oi| their list Dr. B. F. Swafford, Judge William Mack, B. V. Marshall, Jos* Wildy. Nick Stein and W. M. Slaughter. Of these Wildy Is the only pronounced candidate. Last spring the primaries sent Wildy delegates to the city convention, but for some reason which ha|t never been satisfactorily explained, they failed to vote for Wildy, and from pre? sent indications history is liable to re| peat itself, judge Mack says he isn't in it under any circumstances. Those who are on tho inside are of the opinion that the race lies between Swafford and Marshall, with the chances in favor of the former if he would consent to run. The doctor was a member of the council from 1881 till 1883, being one of the prime movers in the purchase of Highland Lawn cemetery, which made him many enemies at that time. But he said tb^ before many years the people would thank him for the part he took in the matter, and he can now have an opportunity of feeling the public pulse on the question. Amonsc the Republicans the names mentioned are ex-Mayor Danaldson, Mayor Griswold, F. V. Blchowsky and Capt. J, W. Haley. Fo* some time there has been a growing be* lief that had Danaldson received th# nomination last spring he would hayf bean elected, and there is an evident dUn position on the part of this element give him another chance. When he was elected mayor his administration corr$ menced with an empty treasury and a general demoralization of oity affair?* When he retired the financial condition of the city was first class and everything Was in good shape* 'With him were re •tired several good couccllmen who stood in the way of subsequent schemes, and the result is only too apparent to day. Mr. Bichowsky has many friends who want to see him nominated, and Mayor Griswold has made an acceptable official. In faot all the gentlemen named are good material, and either,,, wonld command a strong following.

S"*- f*? y, The doubtful quantity in politics this year is the great monohippic aggregation known as the People's party. They are first in the ring with their county ticket, and

expected to join the fight

all along the line. It was announced that

they

would hold a meeting last

Tuesday evening to determine the ad-, visability of putting a full city ticket in the field, but If such a meeting wafrheld nothing has been heard of it. It appears that there is a hito'i in the Third party proceedings right here in "Terry Hut." It will be remembered that in the formation of the aggregation the Prohibition element was counted in, but to the astonishment and discomfiture of all Bezaleel Holmes persists in flocking by himself,

and

persistently refuses to fuse.

"Bez" is a Prohibitionist from principle, and not for the spoils of office or as the tail to any other political kite. BCe has enlisted for the war and has nailed 'his colors to the mast. Other parties may do as they please, but he is going to die, politically, of course, fighting rum. Such fidelity to principle is so rare that it should be encouraged, even to the extent of Third party defeat.

As the result of a quarrel in John Stump's saloon last Sunday night James Patterson struck Henry Devis on the head with a billiard ball, fraciaring his skull. Patterson was arrested on Monday, and is now in jail awaiting the result of the injury ho inflicted. Davis is in a critical condition.

The contract for building the Hulman block on Ninth and Main streets has bee 9 let to William Caldwell, of Middletown, Ohio, for $107,320, his bid being $12,000 lower than the lowest aggregate of separate bids. This dSes not include the brick to be used in the building, the spice mill, steam heating apparatus, gas piping or office fixtures. The work will commence next Week. The lower foundation will be of dark Virginiastone and the upper course of Portage stone. The pressed brick will be brought from Zanesville, Ohio, and the other brick will he of home manufacture.

An attorney for the Big Four railroad called on County Treasurer Conzman and tendered him $&638.82 as payment of the April installment of the company's taxes for 1891, being the amount due on the company's basis of settlement. The attorney wanted the treasurer to give him a receipt for the amount tendered,* and an agreement not to levy on the company's property for the remainder of the $5,769.05 which will be due in a few days. Of course the treasurer refused. In the evening negotiations were resumed, County Attorney llamill being present. It was finally agreed that the form of receipt which Mr. Conzman was witling to give should be submitted to the road

:sattorney,John

T. Dye, and his decision awaited. While the conference was in progress General Manager John 6. Williams, cf the Vandalia, was Introduced to the attorney and remarked that the Vandalia road is going to pay its taxes in full, 'which the Big Fonr will probably be compelled Ut do in the future. #The Western Uafon telegraph company, on second thought, determined to settle and has paid up on the assessment made by the state board.
