THAT GREAT REGISTER.
A STATEMENT ABOUT 1T FROM
PRINTER r. Y. M'BRIDE
HIS Efforts TO Get a Chance to Bid for
the work-What He Gould have
done IL He had Received It
from the County Clerk.

That the county of Los Angeles has
been simply robbed by the connivance
OF the county clerk in awarding the con-
tract to the Express for printing the
great register at % cents per name has
already been clearly demonstrated by
the HERALD. Nearly $4,000 of the tax
payers money will be wantonly ex-
pended in more bold and brazen man
ner than even the taxpayers OF this
county are accustomed to experiences.
On the eighth day of July MR.. Y.
Mcbride, we'll known job printer,
states that he called at the county clerks
Office in order to get some information
regard i,g the great register, SO that he
could put in bid for the work.
He says that be called upon Mr..
Ward and asked him as to the job. Mr..
WaId said that nothing had been done
in regard to the matter, as yet. Mind
you, this was on July Sth.
; Now, as a matter of fact, Mr.. Ward
had let the contract to print the said
great register, to the Evening Express
company, on June 16th, at an out
rageously exorbitant figure. Mr.. Nc
Bride says that he even went further, as
he states that Mr.. Ward told him that
he could not say what would be done in
regard to printing the register. a..
Now, here is the proposition Mr.. Nc
Bride makes. He will take contract
to print the great register at 20 cents
per name; he will buy power press
and all necessary printing material to
get the job out in time; be will pay for
all of this out OF the proceeds of the job,
and then will have handsome profit
left for himself.
Understand distinctly, though, that
Mr.. Mcbride already has printing
office large enorgh in every respect to
print the great register. The PROPOSE
ton that he makes above, merely Illus
trates The matter.
