NO CONTRACTS
ARE REQUIRED
SOLICITOR WATSON'S INTER
PRETATION OF "RIPPER."
In tho Opinion Sent to City Control
ler Costcllo He Assorts Thnt Con
tracts Need Only Be tet When tho
City Authorities Deem It Advlsj
nblo nnd Declares for the Legality
of the Mulligan nnd Spruks' Bills.
The Controller, However, Still Re
fuses His Approval.
The exhaustive opinion which City
Solicitor Wntson furnished to City Con
troller Coitolln on September 13. advis
ing hi in that the claims of Peter Mulli
gan and Sptuks Bios, arc legal claims
nnd should bo p.ild, and which Con
troller Costcllo dlsiegarded In favor of
nn opinion lendcied by his ptlvnte at
torney, M. ,1. Mm tin, Is a most Intel cit
ing document and contains a new In
terpietntlon of the contiact section of
the "ripper" bill, an Interpretation
which Mr. Watson feels confident will
stand the test of tho courts.
It will be undei stood that Controller
Costello refused to approve the claims
In question because he believed, and
was later advised by his attorney, that
it contract should have been entered
Into between the city and the poisons
furnishing the inateii.il oidered by the
dhector of public woiks.
In his opinion the city solicitor first
cites thnt section of the "ilppei" which
gives the dhector of public woiks the
dlicctlon, contiol and management of
all things pel mining to the public
Htieets, and points out that tho ques
tion as to whether the materials and
labor npcessaiy to keep the stieets In
lepalr shall be made the subject of eoti
tiaet "seeems to have been avoided."
He then quotes the contiact section
of the bill, which lends, in pait, as
follows:
CONTRACT SECTION.
"All conti.it ts lclatlng to city affairs
s-hull be let to the lowest responsible
bidder, aftet leasonable notice. When
the contiact exceeds $2J0, such notice
shall be by nihertisemcnt; when less
than that amount, athoi tlsemciU may
be dispensed with. Hery contiact shall
be let by the city lecouler and the head
of the pioper depattment, etc."
"This act as amended," Mi. Waf-on
wiltes, "pi ox Ides for the letting of a
contiact when the i ity authoiltles deem
it advisable, but It does not provide
thnt all cltv woik shall be done bv
contiact. It leaves us without
any legislation, as far as cities of the
second clat-s aie concerned, lequliing
that all city woik shall be done and
materials fui nished undei lonliact. We
aie then foiced to Intcipict Section t
of Al tide IV of the Act of Mai eh 7,
1901, as above ((noted. Did the legls
latuie Intend to put the dhectlou, e on
liol and adminlsti.uion of the dep.ut
ment.s of stieets and hlghwas In a
person without giving him authoilt to
piocuie laboi and put chase niateiials
to cm try out the purposes of the act.'
We think not."
Mr. Watson lefns to the thhd-el.i-s,
city act of 1SS0, which pi o ides foi con
tracts for all city woik "except culi
nary lep.iiis of hlghw.tjs," and ex
piesses his belief that this act was ie
pealed by the "tipper." but that evui
II it was not, the dhector of public
works would still "have ample .utthoi-
ity to eng.igp such laboi, omplo.v suchM
means, and piovide such matoilals as
would be neiess.try for the ui dimity
topaits of the public stieets of the city
the money having been fitst appto
piiated by the councils to i.uij out
said woik." Mr. Watson saj , in con
clusion: al'tiiouiTy cu:.n.
"It cleat ly -eems to me that tlicte
can be no doubting the atithotity of
the ellioetor of public woiks to icqttlip
the woik specified in tho bills to be
done, and to puicii.ise the nee f"-.uy
materials for that putpo-.e, and that
the bills londeied foi lite set vii es and
materials in the tcpalr of stieets
should be paid Horn lite pioper appto
piI.itlon." It will be scon that the sollcltoi's
opinion Is lit effei t that any vvotk to
quhed by the city, no matter of what
magnitude, could be done without e on
tiact, should tho city authoiltles deem
It advisable.
The i en son whv the matoilals put
ihasPil by the illiet-tni- of public woiks
weie put chased, as they weio, entlioly
ap.ut fiom his authotitj to legally do
what was done, was that they weie ic
quired at once and that there was no
time to ask for bids or enter Into con
tracts. Tito lumber purchased fiom
Spruks Hi os. was needed for the Im
mediate lepali ot laldges and theie
was no time to wait for councils to pass
it contiact oidluance, a piocess which
geiiPially takes two months and some
times six.
Conti oiler Cosiello said yesterday
that ho is not piepaied as ot to give
out for publication the opinion f tit .
nished him by Attorney Martin. IIo
ie-asserted his dotei initiation to lefttse
his approval to the bills in question
and reiterated his cat nest deslie to
havo tho wholo question settled by
court. Ho Justltlcs his consultation with
Attorney Martin by pieicdem, claim
ing that rlty olllclals have liequently
consulted ptlvato counsel.
It Is expected that suits against tho
city for tho amounts uf tho sevcial bills
will be bi ought In a few dab.

Interest
We wish to announce that we have succeeded in securing the agency for the Bride Ranges and Heaters.
There are many, reasons why we are pleased to be in a position to offer this line. Chief among these is the
fact that the Bride Stoves and Ranges are the most perfectly constructed ones on the market. So sure are we
of this fact that every one is backed by an absolute guarantee.
Some Reasons Why the Eride Ganges and Stoves Are the Best
Large fire box, large flues; every part of the oven Is surrounded by hot air, excepting the oven door:
sectional top; no warping; improved duplex grates, which can be removed for repairs without disturbing any
other part of the fire box; ventilated oven and extra large cooking top.
On October 14, 15 and 1 6 we will have a special exhibit of these goods under the supervision of Mr.
Miller, representing the manufacturers. Mr. Miller is an expert on all things pertaining to stoves, and will
gladly give any desired information. During the exhibition days we will give, entirely free of charge, a
model nickel-plated rance, worth $45.00. Watch our advertisements for particulars. In the meantime the
stoves are here. Let us acquaint you with their merits.
Remember Date of Special Display.
