JACKSONVILLE ITEMS.
The ctly council of Ashlaud opened
the bids fur bitulithic pavement Tues
day night as per advertisement, and
rejected nil bids.
Just us the bids were ubool to be
opened, Councilman SioH handed in a
roll of papers which proved to be u po
tiliou or rather a remonstrance against
advertising for but one hind of pave
meiit. I he remonstrance contained a
n Hinder of names of owners of prop
erty on tin line ot t he proposed ha
provemeiit, but the great majority of
the signers own no property ou the
streets tu be paved and several of llieni
not taxpayers at all. Tho remon
strance was really au indirect means
resorted to, Io kill Hie paving project.
and was so aceepled bv the council.
After the bids had been rejected the
"unci! proceeded prompt lv to lav the
petitions on the table, thus killing the
measure, ami the paving project is now
itdiewd Io be as ibrlld IIS .IlllillH I'ueHUT.
Ashland is really farther away from
gelling any paving improvemont now
than at any lime heretofore. The
"kickers' have had their inning.
Of the bid.s submitted, that of the
Warren I 'ooslniction company was the
lowest. Their bid for the paving proper
was per s(iuire yard, and includ
ing sub drains, catchbaHins, etc., .their
bid amounted In I per sipiare yard.
omidcriiig the cond it ions, this price is
about the same us that being paid for

hcullies ot excavalion are taken into

i see Ashland make some valuable im
proeuienls of her ntreets are greatly
disappointed at tho oulcome of all the
proceedings that hnve been tnken look
