This fact would hardly bo orod-
itod by a loo.il bidder this morn

"Wo aro badly put out on this

this is no fool of a job to figure on
within such a Bhort time. The
sending away for bids bo f oro call
ing for th'tra at homo is rather
Btrnbge. Thoy did tho samo thing
about sewornge material. When
thev woro askinc for tenders hore,
wo had a lottor from tho peoplo
wo roprescnt in the Lat asking
why wo did not put them on to the

"Then, in civing contracts, they
favor outsiders as against resi
dents who pay taxes. For in
etando, our bid for u certain kind
of castiucs was only two-hun-drcdlhs
of a cent abovo that of an
Eastorn firm that got tho con
tract. "Another thing, a looul firm has
to put up a bond on n contract,
which an outsider is not required
to do. A letter is simply Kontto
the biddor telling him his tender
is accepted."
Tho speakor was romindod of
the bond given by a San Francis
oo contractor for tho tioretatiia
street echoolhouse which tho
Qovornmont had docidod to en
forco. "That is so, but outside contrac
tors fqr material havo not had to
