A NEWSPAPER DEVOTED TO LOCAL AND GENERAL NEWR AND THE INTERESTS OF CEDAR- VILLE AND VICINITY. FORTY-SIXTH YEAR NO. 21> CEDARVIjLLE. FRIDAY, MAY II, 1923 Loyd Company Gets Contract Examination Day Is Here There were seven bidders on the; M^in street improvement. Wednes- j day, the day for the opening1of bids by the County Commissioners, 'the improvement to be done jointly by tho j commissioners and council. The Loyd Contracting Co., Xenia, ’ was low on brick and will be award-* ed the contract, they being about $261 under the Republic Asphalt Co. i * While bids were received on various materials interest centered more on asphalt and brick. There was keen competition throughout by all the bidders and the contract price is re­ garded sohiewhat lower than was expected and about $2,50.6 under the estimate of the engineer. Considering the recent advances in cement, brick, asphalt and labor it was felt by many that, probably the • bids would exi ■the estimate and no award could be made; Following the announcement that the Xenia Company was low bidder council and the commissioners met fo r an executive Session. At the con elusion of this President John North called fo r an expression of property holders for the choice of material to he used, A delegation was'present to represent the property holders hav­ ing been selected Tuesday night. Prof. Jurkat represented the Col­ lege which would have about one- sixth o f the entire frontage. He gave as Ms Opinion that brick was the most durable type of. material. G, E- Jobe was called upon and stated that while a t the meeting the night previous a vote was taken fo r asphalt’ yet the committe was instructed to urge the acceptance, of the lowest and best bid and in as much as brick was the low­ est he was for brick, Andrew Winter stated fhat.be was for brick. The members of council present, Rqss, McLean, McFarland, Smith all stated they favored brick as the best ma­ terial fo r the street. •Council agreed to meet and recommend formeraily the adoption of brick and the award­ ing of the contract to the Loyd, com­ pany. .The commissioners will do this a t a meeting to be - held Saturday ' morning. No contract can be signed by the cpmniissioners until the vil­ lage clerk, J . G. McGorkell, certifies tliat the funds are on hand or in the process of collection, Definite word has not been heard from the success? ful bond bidders, Seasongood & Mayer Cincinnati, There is little doubt but. th a t the firm will take the bonds. Wednesday evening council met and passed a resolution urging the com­ missioners to accept the Loyd Com­ pany bid* Council also accepted the Townsend brick and- council a t this time adopted the stone concrete base rather than shipped gravel. This was -in the interest of a local company that all the improvement material and la­ bor be supplied here as much of the cost would be left a t home as was possible, prices being considered. The Loyd Company bid on four inch brick, cement filler, $34,906.15; pitch filler, $35,562.95; asphalt filler, $35>, 737.75. For 3 1-6 inch brick cement filler, $34,444.15; pitch filler, $35,090.- 96; asphalt filler, ,$35,275.75. *The Republic Asphalt Company on Trindad asphalt with stone base, $34- 932.30 and same with gravel base $35,672.00; Oil sheet asphalt, $34,003. 30 oft stone base and $84,743.00 on gravel base. Edward Ryan, Springfield, bid $35, 293.00 on trinadad with .stone base; grw/el base, $35,293.00, On Oil sheet asphalt either stone or gravel $34,- $74.00, On brick cement filler $40,- 237.60; pitch filler $39,325.60; as­ phalt filler $39,325.60. The estimate for the job was $37, $02.06. These were the main bids and a re given fo r comparison. The seven bidders were Loyd Con­ tracting Company, M. J. Cooney .Edward Ryan, Springfield; J . J, Me Hugh, Rennick & Smith and Ring- Wald A Sons Co,, Dayton, Thd Repub­ lic Asphalt Company, Dayton. The Loyd Company is well recom­ mended having done work for Xenia, Osborn and Middletown. Of course the company will be under bond as Ja required of all concerns. The com- tpany is well-equipped and can start the work just as soon as the equip­ ment cart be placed on the ground. The Main street improvement was first started more than a year ago. Council passed the resolution of neces sity last December and it has been proceeding slowly until the letting of the contract, Wednesday. The im­ provement is badly needed. When completed I t will add much to the value of property as has the South Main street paving, but will be great­ ly appreciated by tho residents. From the standpoint of economy the tax­ payers will see the wisdom of Street paving. Several hundred dollars have been expended a t times on the streets connecting the main market roads but the bsftyy traffic, waars these streets out faster than money dan be accumulated to pay the bills. Reports had been circulated for some time ba^k tir.it brick would be from one third to one half higher than asphalt and this caused- a number of property owners to watifc .As fcriek bid* ware the lowest council la ** t U/f* •;<•••v CONDENSED OHIO NEWS News Items Picked a t R u d e * and Boiled Down for the Busy Reader ✓ i o r ;,s*p)iC6. being commended for the stand taken, 'BROKEN BONES MUST BE , FARMERS WHO >\ With prices anything like near equal' THE LATEST CRAZE .OIL SHOULD PI mote than seventy five percent of the • , NOW WITH J - ! property on the street was for brick/ - Monday Was a bad da# fo r broken ’ , bones.
