cate the council and himself in their
action relative to pay for city print
ing. lie tells how we estimated the
printing of the charter to be wcrth
500, and that he put in bid on our
estimate, which Is nearly correct
instead Of 500 our estimate was $50,
as our memory serves, and as ou,
! bid for the work indicates.
Before making proposals for the
work we inquired Of Mr.. Henry
and Mr.. Curry, Mayor and Clerk.
what was to be done by the city
/ printer, and their answer. in sub
stance was, "al2printing needed by
the city during the year, including
| probably, 200 copies of the charter
This we communicated to Mr. Peek
and we both made bids on that under
standing. Either at the same time,
or soon atter---at least before the
awarding Of the printing was made
! public--Air. Curry gave us to under
sand that the ordinances were to be
| plnted with the charter, aud be
/ part OF the city printing; and 0ur
expectation was, that if the contract
was awarded to us, we should have
to do any and all printing required
at the price mentioned in our pro-
posal. If Peek had inquired Of the
officers he would no doubt have
had the same understanding Of the
matter.
Again we wish to say, the price
paid for the printing is not cxorbit-
ant, so Peck's great flourish about
submitting il to referee IS uncalled
for. The question is: had the
council any right TO pay him $l6i
for work which. he agreed to do for
$50, and which we were refused on
bid Of $99l
What he says about our remark
ing at was necessary to make new
bids" is true, and had that been
done we should have no ground )f|
complaint, and no doubt the cit,
would have saved $2j, for Of course
it is not probable that either Of us
would have bid up to usual printers
prices, which he received under the
snougc game. Concerning the
printing done for the Mayor, and
for which Peck received pay indie
pendent Of bis contract, we have
only to say, that if only the printing
for the council is included in the
city printing; If the Clerks, Treas
uru's, Mayors and each individul
officers printing is TO be raid extra
for, at the printers own rrice, then
We do not understand the charter,
and have always laboTed uuder a !
disadvantage in bidding for the
printing.
No amount Of argument or biustcr
on the part of the Dem2crot can veil
the fact that the Council acted I'M
fairly with US, and paid at least
$500 more for printing last year
than would have been paid had We
been given an opportunity to bid !
on the work as suggested to Mr.,
Peck, admitting he was not bouad
under has first bid. 10 do all the
printing for $50, which Ii aD admis-
sion We do not make.

MINERAL POINT WISCONSIN, Thursday FEBRUARY 49, 1894

THE DemoeF0g says it favors ah-
solute free trade and direct taxation,
and advocates an amendment to the
constitution of the L. s. to secure
that end. In declaring this its doe
tyine it says, farmers can never
have their lights-nor labormg men
generauy-until everything which
they are obliged to purchase is
placed in the same category with
those things which they produce
and sell" The Ucmocrot forgets,
or omits to mention, that there is a
heavy import duty on nearly all
farm products for the protection of
American farmers, which places
what they have to sell in the same
category with iron and a very few
other articles which the farmers have
to buy. We do not propose to dis
cuss the tariff question here, and
admit that on few articles the
tariff may be too high, but think
the Uena0crUt will find it difficult to
show that the leading articles needed
by farmers, on which tariff is
imposed, cannot be bought in Iowa
county to-day at as reasonable
prices as they could during the
reign Of Jimmy Buchanan or any
other Democratic President, esti-
mating tie purchasing power Of
farm product,
