A Wickham & Co. is of the opinien that he has a large and well developed kick coming, and all because certain members of the council are trying to have all bids for doing the re- cently advertised paving rejected. Mr. Wick- ham was the lowest bidder, and naturally quite anxious to be awarded the contract. The paving that was advertised amounts to about 60,000 yards, and at the most favorable bid, #1.48 per yard, would amount to nearly 56,000, which was about $2,500 lower than any of the other bids.” Mr. Wickham states that this is the lowest bid ever submitted for putting down brick paving, It will require 7,000,000 brick to do this paying, and Mi Wickham stated yesterday that if the contract | | was awarded to'him he would at once make | arrangements to put in & plant for making | paving brick that would employ 100 men, an | | and 400,000 selected hagdl hrick would turn out 80,000 hard burned paving brick per day. Sald he: It would take ahout forty days to get such a |!lun‘ in operation, but wa could begip paving in a mohth, as we have betwgen 500,000 oW Bn hand. We would take all the hard by s that all of | the yards in the city could turn out, in addi- | tion'to our own, and they | us as fast as tne ould not supply could be laid, At the rate of 30,000 a_day, it would take nine months to make all the biick necessary to do_this work, 80 you see, it would be impossible to compl the work this year. Those folks on See avenuo who protest against having the str paved before a sewer is laid have no cause for complaint, as it could be very casily arranged to have that street left until next year, as some of the work would surely have to go over. If the contract is awarded to the low- est bidder, it would keep all ;this money at home, as the brick would be’ manufactured here, and all the material would be furnished at home, Last year the brick was purchased at Lincoln, at 210 per 1,000, ana then they were not as good as~ the ordinary hard brick ore. We can turn out better brick for 80 a 1,000. The council advertised for bids for paving these streets, and after getting the bids wints o rojoct them all and not have any paving done. It isn't the fair thing to do by the contractors. They ordered the paving and had us put in_ our bids, and now the proper thing for them to do is to award the contract to the lowest biddeg” plesstebaet Try the “Pomona’ fruit drops. i The Scavenger N 4Do Thave to have a license to haul m nure?” The query was delivered broadside into the ear of the city exccutive by an individual who called at the office of the mayor yester- day afternoon, ‘That depends somewhat on whether or not the scavenger catches you at it,” was the reply of Mayor Macrae, “If he sces you he will make you pay 25 cents a load and have you fined into the bargain. No, you can't haul manure without a license; neither can you'have a license to do it. O, this scaven- businoss is a nuisance. It's one of the worst monopolies there is. The scavengdy is the only one who can do work of this kind. I can get a man to haul mapure for 25 cents a load, but the scavenger won't let him do it and ' insists on doing it himself and charging me - cents a load, This state of affairs won't last after July, if I have anything to say about it. His license expires then, and I don’t want ' to see it re- newed. All'expressmen should be permitted to do work of this kind, and then aman would not be bled to death whenever he wanted a little work of this kind done, The scavenger paid a license of 150, and the old council jumped at it like a pickerel at a bait, 1t was either $150 or nothing with them, and the scavenger got his license, That is one place where I want to see reform, and I don't believe there is a_citizen in town who would not appreciate it.” e Good paper hangers at Crockwell's, b e Memorial Day.

They Make Fortunes Through Illegal Traffic in Opium. H. B. Morse, who was at the Grand Pacifie, has been an official in the Chinese cu rly twenty years, says the Chicago Tribune. He told some intevesting “facts about the opium traffic. “All the opium that comes to this country from China,” said he, “is sent from Hong Kong, which is a free port of entry. While a vast quantity of opium is raised in China, no accurate estimate has ever been made. Each year India sends 10,000,000 pounds of the drug to China, and about 1,000,000 pounds are imported from Persia. This is the raw drug which is boiled in Hong Kong. “A few ago China made an agreement with Great Britain py which the Hong Kong blockade was removed. The average consumption of opium by the individual Chinee is about one ounce a week., The women and children use tobacco, but nearly all the men smoke opium. There ave no means of ascer- taining whether the consumption is on the decrease, as we can’t .estimate the quantity of native-grown opium. It is probable that the drug is being used less, as the importations are slightly de- creasing each year, “While the Chinese laws against opium smuggling are more strin, than thoms of this country, the Hong Kong smugglers get lots of opium into other Chinese ports, The most common method {8 to put up tite drug in tins and hrow the hoxes overboard in the rivers befora retching port. The pack- ages are tied to weights and anchored to floating raffs of bamboo. Then the bam- boo floats are picked up by the smug- glers and the opium taken ashor “Rich and powerful are the Hong Kong smuggle They ave organized in large bands, with almost perfect methods of operation. If the drug is taken over the mountains armed bands@opinion which he had solicite are employed to transport it. We have Chinese troops in the customs depart- ment, and sharp fights between the soldiers and smugglers are of frequent occurrence, The Chinese customs ser- vico under Sir Robert Hart of England is like o disciplined army. There are 200 men in the administrative depart- ment, 600 in the search department_ and 3,000 in the clerical department. Ihave been stationed along the const and spent last year at Pakhoi.
