held out for the bond if one could be
obtained at the same bid as was pre
sented. 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.
