The Council Bluffs Nonparea takes
occasion to introduce an "obvious
moral" in this wise: g
At the election the Republicans
secured tho control Of the city Of
Dubuque. The Republican Council
gave the city printing to the Repub
iican Times, but at STARVATION rates.
The Democratic Herald says the
giving ofthe printing to the Times
is right, and exactly what the Coun'
oil should have done, but it was not
right to insist that the printing should
be done for almost nothing 1t can
not understand why o newspaper
should be asked to work for the city
cheaper than it can for any business
man. 1t tells the Times that it is the
duty Of their party friends in the
Council to pay them fair ratios; that
they should insist upon having them;
and that the sentiment of the town
will sustain them in it. While IN
power the Democracy of Council
Bluffs and of Pottawattamie county
acted upon this principle, as the
Nonparcil has abundant reason To
recollect. They never turn d away
their organ to fatten on STARVATION
rates." for work performed for either
city or county. Moral-obvious.
