called the deputy reeve of the town ship of- esqueslng on iorig distance telephone and tn our conversation i was advised that it was his intention ito attend that meeting jl did not know yhelher the contract was to be let on that date or if the were jut calling for tenders i asked hlpi oo get in touch with mr cleaves and the road commissioner- suggesting that he ask them to try arid hove this

did tjrfbg this ihattcr- to lus at tent ion this does not show uie writer was trying lp take an unfair advantage of thu representatives in council i told him that some of the team sters told me that they thought this work could have been done by them at 30 cents per yard i also told him it would have paid me to take on trie contract at that price rather than have the money leave town on november 3 as i was leaving for toronto mr cleaves came to me and said that mr armstrong was willing to sublet this contract to me a 30 cents per yard but the contract was not approved of by the county road department at this time mr arm strong was to get 5 cents per yard or about 60000 for giving me uie con tract and i was to assume all the responsibility i asked mr cleaves lf he thought this was fair well he said you suggested you would take u at that price i did but not as sublet contract circumstances alter cases however i told him i would see what i could do on my return i held a meeting with the teamsters and explained the situation con sequently i would require three or four cents per yard to take care of the difference between box and banlc measure also the employment of foreman and guarantee a cash bond of one thousand dollars 1000qo this did not seem to meet with their approval but i may be mistaken in my opinion i told them to take uus contract themselves which they de cided to do u they could arrange suitable terms with mr cleaves on november 4th the teamsters had mr cleaves meet them where uie work was to be done there was a little discussion in which mr cleaves was asked uie date on wihch uie work had to be completed he said the steam shovel had to have it fin ished by uie 1st or december they asked him ir he could not extend uie time if it was done with the teams he would not guarantee them that they also asked him if uie council would be responsible for payment this he could not say until he had taken the matter up with same mr cleaves said uie job was let to mr armstrong and that they would have to look to him for the money he also stated that uie contract had to be completed before they could draw a cent this was not much encour agement for men

as uie trade journal i then through my agent got in touch with mr muir of uie county roads department who informettthv that the county road department had a supervisory influence over tlie con tract as their department makes a grant if tholr requirements are con formed with in order that pressure might be brought to bear on the department i pointed out what advertising had been done and that the local men hod no knowledge or the adverttsment call ing for tenders and followed this up by making verbal tenders to him st 34 cents per yard mr mulr of the county roads de- liartment then took the matter tip with the local engineer and the local engineer informed him that the county council had been most anxi ous- to let the contract for day labour but that they could hot receive tt tender from any local men or from local labour that the local man had made an offer of 30 cents but when rtftered the job had been unable to live up to his offer and uie council were forced to accept the tender of armstrong bros which was 35 cents my statement was made 9 days after this tender was let by council that the local man will not do the work and that one could not get the work done by local labour as the local people did not seem to want that kind of work i then pointed out that the reason uie local men dd not want this kind of work was because the only con tract they could otitaln would be a subcontract from armstrong bros under which the local men would be responsible tbr the contract ahd un der which they had to look to arm strong bros for their remuneration and through which armstrong
