a Tribune reporter last night, made
sweiplng assertions against council

"The councllinen and other, politi

at the spring election will llnd tbnt
the game they aie engaged in will io
h'Jlt disastrously for them. Why is the

Fully ten councllmen have gone to
Dunn Hrotheis, to whom the contract
was given, and asked them to delay
the work as they aie eagr for tho suc
cess of the ordinance campaign, In
tending to blindfold the people of the

only way the sewer can bo built Is by
voting for the ordlnnnce and that the

"Ono of the Dunn Ptotheis told mo
this," Mr. Klaumlnzcr continued. "The
clever dodge will not bo a saccess, nnd
we will light those scheming ward
politicians to tho bitter end.
"It It an outrage that the long-suf-firlng

was Intended for tho sewer, I under

"Tills statement that the contractors
