because the Mayor and council arc aware
of lid fact nothing u done to

the council should nut forget that other

Here me thc'.iacts. The council In writ
ing asked us tosay how much we would
charge lor printing the orilinmees in a
book ol the same number of page , the
present hook ol ordinances, using small
pica leaded. Now wo did nut ask the
council to ask us this question, MIM did
not suggest to thai august body tliu kind

made a bid. It was so uiiioh
below the hid ol llowen ,t Co,, that the
committee concluded to not report It to
the council, uiul.iisked for new bids, again
specilying the typo small pica leaded.
Again wo made a bid, to print the ordi
nances In small plea type, '.00 pages, for
a certain sum. This, with Powell ,1 Co.'s
hid wa reported lo the council and out
bid, was accepted. When the contract
was to be made out, Mr. Iliirnelt wished
to have It say, that If Hie ,ook
made more thin 200 pages in small
plea leaded, wo should be paid so much
er page for the extra pages. His honor,
the mayor, lu the hone of keeiiltiL' the
work Irom us, refused to sign such a con
tract, and the council, alter exposing out
bid, ordered the committee toask for now
hliN. This time the type was named:
brevier solid, because the other olllce has
only brevier on hand. Well, we made au
