ANOTHER GASOLINE CONTRACT Does the Council Intend to Blunder Again in Letting It? SUGGESTION AS TO A STANDARD LIGHT. flect of Haty Advertising for New Bids the Saf which Ought to Be Th Around the Agreem and guards On next Tuesday the council will make an- other attempt to lot the contract for certain parts of the city with With the b lighting line manner in which the last contract, was and ihe ful scenes which led up toit, the public i quite familiar. The tope is entertamned that the coming attempt will be devoid ¢ picious conduet on the part of the council und that the matter will be attended to as 1t should bo business manner. W thi I know it is a mado disgrace in a conscientious and prominent taxpaye Uirougn this whiol se in which boodle cmployed, 1 know there nre fotlows who would not hesitate to and did take in the late gosoline faree Their names, too, have [een annouticod on the streot”and the in formation has leaked out_through the nation which secured their service, So far as [ am concerned, 1f [ can learn of any of this dirty business time, 1 shall not hesitate to make some councilmen wince . 1 understana, wiil agzabn and of courso the Ol pe of backe hich has been greatly io rreased co, and the St dard Oil company, it is claimed, is al 110 push them to the front.’ svornl things in connection with this now move which attract pretty gener: attention, One is the hnste which has been displayed in advortising for bids. The original contract was killed by the mayor's veto on last Tuesday mght Aaver: tisements were irserted in the papers of the next day and as has been stated, the bids are 1o bo oponed on Tucsday next at noon This notico is considered manifost] sliort to ennblo the advertisoments to e ate through the country and thus attract tho attention of tho illuminating companies pisewhere which might be disposed to offer a bid. As a consequenc from few if any companies other atready in the fight People hold that this haste was unneces sary and sinjudicious, etpecially in view of the fuct that there was no danwer of the city in the meantime being left in durkness, T'he advertisement for bids, too, has been eriticised. It leaves the bidder to elect what candle power he shail bid upon and. the amount he shall ask for the same. This hus b usidercd unusual, It is held that the city should determine what candle power giould bo employed in cver burner, aud then ask bids upon that quality of light., Ifasixtecn-candle-power light be considered the desiratum, of what uso is it, peopleargue, to consider bids on twelve, or thirteen or fif- teen-candle power! Gas inspector G of e is woi therofore, have us| power. 1t his been urgod that if this were dono the competition would 1ot be as great as it is now. But this objection Is met ou the other hand by tho query, What is the use of competition which does not compete? Companies ‘vhich do not or-cannot furaish the light which is demianded by the gas inspector ought not to bo considered competitors. Money paid for less than such a light as is needed is money thrown away. If the ad- vertisement had been given goueral cireulu- tion, the response it would huve brouzht would huce dispelled all idea of combination. It is also noted mn the advertiscment that bidders will be required to exhibit to the gas committco of tho city council threo days prior to the opening of the bids “samples of lamps, posts and burners they propose to furnish.’ Now, it is asked, what good it will do to exhibit “sumplos of Lamps, posts and burn- ers?” What the committee ought to sco ospecinlly, is the light! The best looking lamp, post and burne with . n bad light, ds value The light should be of the standard powe aemanded by the city and_not of a quality only as can be afforded by this or that man- facturer. The test should bo made before the contract is lot.” After the awarding the contractor should be obligated {o furnish the standard light or pay a penalty therefor in addition to have a deduction made from his bills. So long as a contractor knows he not furnish the standard light, s willing to have deducted from his bill an amount representing the diffcrence beeause ho fixed his bid w the outset to save himself from loss, The cont fu this rospect avo all right, of the people aro not. ‘They in the bad light and pay for it The resolution adopted at - the last meeting of - tho council to deduct from tho bills when the light is below a cer: tain power, ought to bo amended 50 as to in- sist upon n cancellation of the contract if the discropancy is continued for au appreciabio timo, Tho attention council may b in the council take bood bo a bidder ple will also have o corps too offers need be expocted han those bert says that a sixteen-candlo anything. the ity at least sixteen- light power Why, not ndle should bids on but those must walk also receive from the council. That under which the present com- pany operates, is worthless. It is almost as worthless as have been the light and the lamps which the latter has at times fu nished. 1t should specifio the candle-power to bo supplicd and should, among A uumber of things, insist that when thut power is not_attained, the compa- ny should stand the consequence! ‘I'ne consoliduted tank line should keep its hands out of this mutter and a certain other strong corporation of this city which also took part in tho last furce should attend to its own business, 1f it doesu’t there will be something about it in public According to the advertisement in tio the - alleved tost of compet ing' lights shouldd bo mado to night, but where tho council committee on ias will hold it nobody seems to kuow.
