Morning appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1877-1906, 1880-11-19
identical in pu,port at the time. Mr.. Put

identical in pa, port, at the time Mr.. Pu
nam says:
Among the charges which the igno,a,nus {
the APPEAL has made against me IS that
; have allowed Marshall Robinson for the print
ing of the orders of any State officer the fu
price for printing 200 copies of any documen
the same as if he had printed 1 900. Tai
is correct and true. Any man who has bee
about a printing office for years, and weul
then object to such allowance, ought I
take refuge in a hcnnery and there end hi
days.
We vii! now ask Mr.. Robinson if he has no
been furnished with paper by the State t
print whole thousands instead OF 200 and if e.
what disposition has he made Of the othe
800 sheets of paper Has he used them TO q
other State work or in his oyn private bust
ness? Let Mr.. Putnam answer this question
Does not Mr.. Robinson bid contain the fol
| item:
| Preclamations So.
Did not his last bill contain two items
each of which read as follows
| Cine proclamation 80.
| Did you NOT. although under oath as an ex.
| pert, sign your name To this bill as correct.
and did YOU not at the time know that the
charge was donble that designated in the bid
Did no5 the Board at it's next meeting, when
the APPEAL called attention to the swindle,
cut both bills down one. half?
The Enterprise has become SO sick of Put
MANS defense that it no longer allows him to
use its columns except ut regular advertising
rates The APPEAL will print his reply for
nothing, together with the personal attacks
on the editor of this paper and the childish
bilingsgate which he seems unable TO keep
out Of the discussion. The APPEAL does net
propose to indulge in any abuse of Mr.. Put
nam. After this discussion is ever the per-
sonalities he is anxious to indulge in will DE
Forthcoming. We believe that We can show
the mans real character, outside OF the ex-
pert business, in a way that will forever after
prevent Mr.. Hobart or any other respectable
gentleman from addressing him as "Friend
Putnam"
Mr.. HoBERr is in error when he claims
that Mr.. Mighels did not consider himself as
wronged by the disposition of the Contract
He never locked upon it as anything else than
a conspiracy, and though urged by his
friends to expose the job, declined on the
ground that he was the author of the bill by
which the State printing should be let to a
private bidder, and that he could net con-
sistently oppose any of the results of legis-
lation that he himself had framed.
