The inefficiency of the present bond, if such there were, had nothing to do with the council protecting the property owners with a better bond if such could be obtained. In the end, however, the mayor's idea. didn't pre vail as the bond issue was dropped entirely. . - - Property Owners Talk.' Mr. Pattison again spoke saying he supposed there was a bond feature when he circulated the petition. Jack Childs talked on the bond is sue saying bonds usually were not of much value. ' Wear and tear must be accounted for. It had been previous ly pointed out that the Warren bond provided only for inferior workman ship and material and had nothing to do with the general deterioration from the elements. Mr. West pointed out that it was foolish to insist on a guarantee if such a guarantee could not be enforced. He said that it was to be supposed the bid would be increased if a bond was re quired, and supposed the bond was to be required. ' Councilman Lincoln argued for the bond saying he would not vote for the paving if a bond, the same or bet ter than those covering work in the past, was not required. He and coun cilman Jones voted against the resolu tion on that ground. The unfairness to the other bidders was again brought up and then came the final vote on the passage of the motion after a motion to amend by substituting a five year bond clause by Campbe.ll had died, and the vote stood six-two Lincoln and Jones' op posing, and Campbell, Davis, Haisten, Fltzger-'.ld, Sargent and Wright fav oring. ' ' Thus was pass the. resolution giving the contract to the Geiger people with out bond other than the 10 per cent hold-out for six months. The property owners left Immedi ately a majority of them highly pleas ed that a new paving company had entered the field. "The Kingfl is dead; long live the king," was their expres-( sion at the outcome. For hours after the council had ad journed the bond question was dis. cussed on street corners and Ts again the absorbing topic in this city today.
