HOW STEVENS SAVED SELB
THE FIFTH WARDER'S SCALP
AT HIS BELT
But the st. Paul Representative
fastened to the Rescue, and the
Secretary of the Late Campaign
Committee Hangs ON to His Job.


Behind the failure Of the Pioneer Press
company to bid on contract for printing
stamps for the internal revenue depart
ment this next fiscal year, and the subse-
Quent award of the contract for both Min
neapolis and ST. Paul to the Northeastern
Lithographing & Printing company of
this city, there is an interesting story. 1t
is claimed that heavy printing interests in
Chicago and the East persuaded the COM
missioner of internal revenue to approve
a regulation intended to Cypress and har-
ass the smaller concerns then holding
printing contracts. Whether this be so
or not, the regulation in question occas-
toned the withdrawal of the Pioneer Press
from the field
1t has been the custom in the past for
the Pioneer Press to print stamps in St
Paul, with two men from Minneapolis to
count and guard the sheets as they came
off the presses, while the Northwestern
Lithographing company performed the
same office in Minneapolis, under the in
spection of two st. Paul agents, who
checked off the work as fast as It was
finished.
The regulation in question required that
the number of men should be increased to
three One man could have performed
the labor, but the two were insisted on to
avoid the danger of mistakes.
The third mas was to be paid by the
contractors, and it was suspected that
this was in the interest of Chicago and
New York printing houses to drive others
out of the stamp field.
But a political complication arose The
commissioner of internal revenue reap
pointed die keepers F. H Barnard
and Capt. J. H. Sandberg, of Minneapolis
who had been inspecting the work in the
Pioneer Press plant. while John F. Selb
and w. H. Farnham, of this city were
inspecting the Minneapolis work under q
regulation which provided that the in
spectors should not live in the same con-
gressional district in which their work
was to be done. The congressman from
the two districts, however, got together
and decided to drop Farnham continuing
Mr. Selb as the third man.
Just how the two Minneapolis men will
fare under the ruling of the internal rev.
enue commissioner remains to be seen
1t IS possible that all three inspectors
may have to be St. Paul men.
