A QUEER
City Council Would Make the City
Rich by not Advertising Its Con-
tracts,
Is 1t False Economy?

The city council met Tuesday even
ing in regular session with Mayor San
ford presiding. There were present AL
dermen Bonner, McAssey, Vaughan and
Wilson. The police magistrate, marshal
and street commissioner rendered reports
which were ordered filed.
The marshal brought up a rccommen-
dation to bridge Belt creek above the
mouth of Carpenter, in lieu of repairing
the old bridge which is further down the
creek. The movement is a good one, as
it cuts off a quarter mile of travel, and
dispenses with one extra bridge. The
suggestion was acted upon and "A motion
was carried ordering the marshal to adj
vertise for bids for the job, but he was
instructed
O TO ADVERTISE
in the papers, but just to tack up a cou-
pie of scrubbed sheets, anywhere, in or
der to keep within the bounds of law.
What's the matter with the papers!
Or, the council! Who ever sees the no.
tice posted or a hitching rack or a dry
goods box? Who can read it l. he does
see it? This is a most amazing act! A
city council awards a printing contract
ostensibly to have its profound delibera-
tons published %gratis-and incidentally
its members doomed, free Of cost. Then
when an important contract is to be let,
raises its voice against using the columns
of the paper. The HERALD does not re-
quire the go cents to be derived from
printing such notice, in order to exist.
The revenue from it is nothing here OF
there. But we dread to see a council
put up $25 more of the city's money
than the bridge is worth, only because it
was not properly advertised And we
venture the opinion that the promulgat-
or or promulgators of the system will
learn that it is false economy.
Bills as follows were awarded and
ordered paid by warrant:
