COUNTY PRINTING
The Minnesota papers have been in
the thrOes of settling the county print
ing for the pear 1885, and number
have alluded to the matter in their re-
cent issues.
The St. James Journal says that the
matter was arranged in Watonwan
county so that both papers shall pub
lisl1 the matters to he let by tie board
and both will he paid for it. The Jour-
nal did moi bid on the delinquent tax
list and let it 60 to the Madelia Times.
This is Il sensible way where there
are two or more old and we'll establish
ed papers, and the arrangement is SIM
liar to that agreed upon by the three
newspapers of this county.
Tie Pipestone Star says:
The county commissioners at their
session last week. for the sixth time
made the Star the official paper Of Pipe
stone county, to publish the proceed
ings of the Board, annual statement
and tax list. AS the law directs they
took into consideration the age ami
general circulation of the county pa
pers, and in these regards the Star
Outranks all.
This is what the County Commits
sioners of this county have always
overlooked. 1t is as much their duty
under the law to take into considera-
ton the circulation and reliability of
the newspaper selected to do the print
ing, as it is to let the tax list to the
lowest bidder. The law, after saying
the tax list shall be let to the lowest
bidder, says. ''but" they shall take in.
to consideration the facilities of the
paper for reaching the tax payers gen.
orally.
Speaking on the same subject the St.
Peter Tribune says:
In many of the counties of this State
the publishers join in doing the work,
make al equitable division of the pay, ,
and all publish the official matter, thus
giving the widest circulation possible
to county dOings. In Mankato the
Free Press and Review. two old pstab-
lished and widely circulated papers.
did toe same thing last week, and the
combined bid Of the two was accepted,
the county commissioners even going
so far as to ignore \ much lower bid
from a paper Of small circulation. The
prices paid printers in Minnesota are
Tar below those paid in other states,
and those who receive the full legal
rates here are but moderately paid any
how.
This seems to be the tendency among
the we'll established, legitimate news
papers.
Ayers $arsaparilla, being highly
concentrated, requires u smaller dose,
| and is more effective, dose for dose,
than any other blood medicine. 1t is
the cheapest, because the best. Quail
| ty and not quantity should be consid.
| cred.
The Prairie Farmer says that Dec.
81, 1884, ended the 10th year since the
Union Stock Yards Of Chicago were
opened. The number of live stock
handled each year is given. They foot
up over one hundred and two million
head.
