TIE DECISION IN THE CONTESTED STATE
PRINTING.-The Joint Committee on Public
Printing assembled yesterday afternoon at
O'Clock in the Senate chamber, all the
members present-Senator Bland presiding.
Senator Bland announced the decision Of
the committee on the appeal OF MesSrs.
Clenmitt IL Jones against Major r. T..
Walker, Superintendent OF Public Print
ing, and Mr.. James E. Goode, which he
read as follows:
"The Joint legislative Committee on Pub
lie Printing, having considered all the evil
dence submitted to them in the appeal OF
Clemmitt & Jones Us. James E. .Goode,
touching the award made by r. F. Walker,
superintendent OF Public Printing, to said
Goode for certain public printing, have
reached the following conclusions: i.
"1st. The committee decline to set aside
and annul the said award, because they are
of the opinion that the schedule of public
printing advertised by said Superintendent
was in accordance with law. and was for
the best interests of the public service.
"2d. That the Superintendent OF Public
Printing is sustained in refusing to enter
tain bid from another firm not in accord
ance with the schedule advertised by him.
"3d. That there is no proof in this case
that the Superintendent OF Public Printing
improperly or fraudulently Disseminated
against any bidder for the public printing.
"4th. That the award was properly made
by said Superintendent OF Public Printing
to said James +. Goode, and the joint COM
mittee sustain the decision of said Superin-
tendent.

"JoHN L. LUvELL,
&C. 3. CoALE,
"W. S. GILMAN,
'.Joint Committee"
Senator Bland said that the committe bad
come to this decision unanimously upon
every point. and that il we are to believe
in human testimony at all, the evidence was
overwhelming that Mr.. Clemmitt, although
perfectly honest in his motives and truth
full in his Intentions, was mistaken as to
the bid shown him on the day of the award
by the Superintendent.
At the request OF Major Robert Stiles,
counsel for Messrs. Clemmitt & Jones, the
committee added and signed the following !:
Note.-In reaching these conclusions the
committee believe that Mr.. Clemmitt, who
testified, was simply mistaken in the iden-
tity of paper involved in the award as
made, and they do not intend by their de-
cision the sllghtestrefection upon thetruth-
fulness of his character or his testimony
The committee adjourned TO meet on
Thursday afternoon at ~ O'Clock to take
up the appeal in regard to the book-bind-
ing, &c.
