THE LOWEST BIDDER It is easler to conclude that the board of public works made a mis- take in not awarding a conduit con- tract to the lowest bidder than to| accept the reasoning which sponsor- | ed the award to a higher bidder. The matter naturally was brought to the attention of the Common ! Council last night, and that body | properly gave it consideration. { It the low bidders are not to re- ceive consideration there Is no logic in calling for competitive bids. Con- tractors are placed under bond, and the city employs inspectors to sce that work is performed properly. That should be sufficient to safc-4 guard the city’s intercsts unless it | can be shown conclusively that the lowest bidder is entirely incompe- tent. In the case under discussion | this has not been shown.

THE “MILWAUKEE” ROAD One cannot help admiring spunk that underlies the attempted rehabilitation of the Chicago, Mil- waukee and St. Paul railroad.
