Cricaao, Sept. 21.—The majority of the veople of Chiearo are not aware of the danger thatls Inrking around them by the fearful numoer of poor boilers that are iurnished here, by partics that contract for such at the lowest fiures they POssibly can get them for. I don't mean the man that lets the original contract, bul the zo-called middleman, the steamfitter, or engine-builder, for in nine cases out of ten will the Inun that pays sl contracts for 200d and honest work and material be swindled. It canuot Ve otherwise. and it is about time that the people should bexin to open tneir eves, for this practice nmong steanifiticrs particulurly, to fieure on johs ‘for heatinz where they have to furnisn_eversthing, is curried on to such an extent that the boiler-maker must cither take the boiler to buiid for the lowest fizures the steamftter squeeses him down to, or shut p #hop. No mutter how much he miy be wantins 10_reach the man that contracts for ucn work with his own nonest st-aihtforward bid, he can't do jt. simply because there stands the'architect in s way and tells him to go to the steamiiter, be i3 the man to contract for the boiler. When he gets the specifications for the work required, he puts in bis bid no doudbt 1 pood faitn that 'the steamfitter will act houorably with him, but this wan bas bad_ invariably from four to tén bids on the job veforc he got the contract himseif; whether be 100k out ofthese bids tne highest or the lowest for his own. bid nobudy knows.
