The only com- plaint that can be made is the slowness with which the work has progressed, but the tax- payers and the citizens will thank the con- tractor for that instead of censuring him when they kiow that itis the result of his determination to use mnothing but the best material and not lay a brick that has to be imported, by that means keeping every dollar of the paving costs in the city.

They were notto behad, simply be- cause the brickmakers could not getthe bricic out fast enough. Withmy present force of pavers 1 could use from sisty thousand to soventy thousand brick o day. With the present facilities for maiking them, all the yards in the could not turn out that many hard burned ng brick a day. You must recollect that it is only a small part of the Kiln that produces brick suitable for paving purposes. Ihave paid out a good many thou- sand dollars for pavingmaterial since I began this work, and not a_dollar of it has been out of tho city. I could haveimported brick enough that would have passed inspec- tion and perhaps have kept my force busy all the time, andiad my work as far along s it should have been at this time, butl did not desire to do so for the reason that I am satis- fled that we can muke just as good paving brick in Council Bluffs as there is in the world.

It will be impossible for meto complete my contracts within the specified time unless I hnport the iargest part of the brick and send thousands of dol- ars out of the city. 1 want to say right here that if the council will grant me an extension of time on my present con- tracts [ will guarantee the evéction of & plant here_that will furnish all the brick we want, and 1 will have itin operation by the time frost goes out of the ground in thoe ing.

This is the only way to bring down' the price of brick paving. There will belots of paving asked for next year, and if it can be laid for the same price “that we have to pay for cedar blocks in the past, the people will feel more tike having the im- provements made. 1t will give employment tohundreds of men and keep thousa dollars in the city that under other stances would have to be sent outside. said nothing to the members of the council about un extension of time, but Iam confi- dent they will notdeny it when the matter s rightly understood. ~ The plant, I am will- ing to guarantee, will have acapacity of wrn- ing out from fifty thonsand to sixty thousand first class paving brick every day it is in operation, and they will be bétter than those made by hand and burned in the old way.” The attention of Alderman Lacy was called to the matter, and he frankly stated that there would be no question about the council doing what was fair and encouraging the erection of a suitable plant. 1f the extension of the time asked for by Contractor Moore would be sufticient inducement to establish such an en- terprise he saw no reason why the council should not grant it. The present price of paving brick is not far from $1) per thousand, and if they are made by machinery and upon an extensive scale the cost can be reduced to about one-half, and this would bring the ice of paving'down at least one-third. The st of the property owners as well as the general interests of ‘the city favor alib- eral encouragement for the establishment of ularge brick making plant, and the fact is about assured that it will be built upon the proposition that Contractor Moore is ready to make to the council, Unprecedented bargains in_boy’s and children’s clothing at the Model Clothiug Co. ——— J.

Governor Boies at the Opera House G nor Horace Boies made his second visit to Council Blufts terday, and last evening addressed an immense auaience at the opera house, Inthe parquet and dress circle were a number of ladies, but the prin- cipal part of the audience was composed of men anxious to hear the democratic governor of Towa talk on politics. All the standing room in the vear part of the house was occu- pled. and there was a large number of gentle- men who satisfied their curiosity to seo and hear the governorand retirel after remaining at the door a few moments. Their places werequickly filled with others, anda con- stant stream was thus kept coming and going all the time. The governor madea very interesting but modest address which had been carefully prepared, and to guard againstany unpleas- ant lapses of memory he had the manuscript before him but did not refer to it very often, There was little or no attempt made to dis- ss local or state politics, but the whole fthe speech was an effort to show of the republican taviff laws better everything and ov body would be 1f the democtatic dream of the miliennium could be realized and the whole worll be one large, happy family with no selfish ov sell-protective resirictions thrown around any nation to protect its comume The speech abounded in homely and plainly drawn illustrations of the bur- dens placéd upon the common people by the McKinley bill. Nine-tenths of the governor lance thrusts were made at Major McKinle practical ideas of the tariff,and they were re inforced by what the goverior was pleased to call expert testimony. The speech was not bitter and it did not bristle _with misvepresentations like the usual efforts of democratic politicians, It was move like the deliberate effort of a law- yer to make a favorable showing before the jury for his client who has paid him for the job'and expects the attorney to make the best case possible out of the facts that have b given him and the testimony of a few wit- nesses who have been sworn to tell thetruth, but the degree of whose relationship to An- nanias the lawyer has not been particular or deemed it best to inquire into, The speech was listened to with courteous attention and was frequently applauded. On the whole the governor mide a very fayor ble impression upon his audience, regardl of party prejudice, and will leave the city with the consciousness of having earned the good opinion of the people, After the conclusion of the speech there were loud and continuous calls for Colonel Tom Bowman, who had occupied a modest seatin the rear part of thestage during the governor's address, but who hadquietly gone out a few moments before the spealker con- clude The calls were in vain, but they were earnest, loud aud long, and were only silenced by the stentorian voice of ex-Con- gressman Pusey, who announced that he de- sired to present General Woodruff of Wis- consiw. Some of the crowd were still yelling for Bowman when the distinguished visitor fromthe badger state walked to the front part of thestage, CGeneral Woodrufl spoke n an easy and graceful manner fora few moments, calling attention to the fact that tho repulicans in Wisconsin and some of the democrats had abandoned the discussion of the tariff and were talking the people away from the real 1ssue of the campaign by devots ingall their time topublic school question and the Benuett anti-Catholic law, turiel the point very neatly and gracofully, At10 o'clock the large good natured but not enthusiastic audience was dismissed, The Manhattan sporting headquarters, 418 Broadway.
