held at 7:30 p. m. on the 2Sth day of De-
cember, A. ID. 1888.
Each of said bids must state the price
per inch for advertisements, and also
for Council proceedings, and be accom-
panied by good and sufficient bond,
satisfactory to the Common Council, in
the sum of ten thousand dollars, signed
by the principal and and two sufficient
sureties; said bond to guarantee that
the bidder will enter into contract on
the basis of his bid it accepted, and
faithfully fulfill the contract based on
said bid.
The Committee on Printing are here
by further directed to furnish to each
bidder sample copy of the principal
forms of legal notices, stating the num-
Der of times each notice is required to
be published by law, for the information
of the bidder.
No bid will be entertained by the
Common Council, or committee, unless
accompanied by triplicate copies of ad-
vertisements whose forms are furnished
by the committee, from type set up by
the bidder in the exact form in which
he proposes to execute his contract,
with price noted at the foot of each adj
vertisement for the total number of IN
sertions of the advertisement as re-
quired by law, computed at the offered
price per inch. The said copies accom-
panying accepted bid shall be attached to
contract and form part of the same;
and no bills under such contract shall
be allowed TO be paid if the advertise
ment shall be displayed or spread out
to any greater length than is exampled
in the specimens attached to said con-
tract, nor in case said advertisements
shall be crowded into less space than
shown by such samples.
The Common Council, however. re-
serves the right to direct the form of
advertisements and the space they shall
occupy, which, in such case. shall be
paid for at pro rata prices to those fixed
in the contract. The Common Council
reserves the right to reject any and all
bids.
