THE COUNTY PRINTING.

On Wednesday of last week the board
of county commissioners awarded the
county printing for the ensuing year to
the Grays Harbor Gazette, in the face Of
the fact that the bid of this paper was
more than 800 below that of the former,
so plainly so that any pupil in the fourth
grade OF the public schools could have
figured it out. The HERALD has APP
pealed from the decision OF the commits
sioncrs to the superior court.
In bidding for the printing this year,
the chief consideration for the publishers
was the publication of the delinquent
tax list, which occurs next January. The
charge for this publication is limited by
law to 10 cents per description, and the
bids submitted all stated what they
would publish this list for, separately
from the other advertising.
The HERALD offered to publish the tax
list for four and iive-eighths cents per
description, and to run the other adyer.
Using for 10 cents per inch. The bid OF

Notwithstanding the fact that the stat
utes provide for the payment of the
ACTUAL EXPENSES of the sheriff when
travelling on official duty, sheriff Huff
has persuaded the commissioners to pass
an order allowing him ten cents per mile
for the distance travelled, in lieu of ACT
UAL EXPENSES, with vouchers for each
item, as done heretofore according to law.
II the board was bunkoed into this step
by the persuasive eloquence of Sheriff
Huff, it can so convince the public by
expunging the order from the record be-
fore adopting the minutes when it meets
next month.

The Republican County Central Com
mittee, body OF representative men
from every precinct in the county has
endorsed the building OF the Montesano-
Aberdeen road. which has been petition
ed for by one-thousand citizens, yet, so
far, the board OF commissioners has not
deigned to notice either. Ordinary
courtesy would demand that some
answer be given this request for un-
iversally recognized public necessity,
and the people have right to either
have the road built, or know the reasons
OF the board for declining so to do.

The Bulletin takes comfort from the
imagination that the establishment OF a
colonial system similar to Great Britain,
will "put at rest all fears as to any dam
aging influx OF Oriental labor to the
United States" in blissful ignorance OF
the fact that the only law against such
immigration is about to expire by limita-
ton, and that the last congress refused
to take any action toward its renewal.
The democratic national platform last
year contained plank favoring the con-
tinuance of that law, and its application
to the same cases of all Asiatic races,
while the republican platform was silent
on the subject.

II the extra session of the legislature
had occurred fonr years ago, our republic
can exchanges would be using hundreds
OF reams of white paper and tons of black
ink in showing up the stupidity of the
fusionists in the proceeding session.
Now they are devoting their space to
the hope that the present session will
adjourn as soon as it remedies the blund-
er that caused its call. and not remain
in session long enough to make any
more bad breaks.
Aberdeen herald. [volume] (Aberdeen, Chehalis County, W.T.) 1886-1917, 1901-06-13

the Gazette was four and one-half cents
per description for the tax list, and 20
cents per inch for all other advertising.
The number of descriptions in the tax
list, as estimated by the treasurer, is
70 600. The one.eighth OF one cent per
description, that the Gazette was below
the HERALD on the tax list, would
amount to 1880, while the charge for
the other advertising is double the price
asked by this paper. 1t may be claimed
nv the board that it was unable to de-
termine what the general advertising
would amount to. But, to this, answer
can be made that it did not try. The
records of the county, if referred to-,
would have shown them that during the
wear ending June 80, 1899, this HERALD
had received 1858 for the advertising,
and it charged the same price it now
asked, i. G. ten cents per inch.
The HERALD was at first inclined to
take the charitable view, that the mis-
take was by reason Of the inability OF the
board to figure, but since has learned,
upon good authority, that one OF the
members said, after adjournment, that
che knew the HERALD was the lowest
bidder, but he would be id if he
would vote the contract to that paper.
This statement decided us to appeal to
the superior court, to show that member,
whose mind is so small that you could
put it in a mustard seed and hear it
rattle, that he is not "the whole thing"
as we'll as protect ourselves in the lowest
bid, and the taxpayer who would be
obliged to pay the higher price.

CITY OFFICIAL PAPER.
THURSDAY, JUNE ID. 1901
THE STEWART PROPOSITION.

The acceptance of the Stewart propo-
sition by the city council, although somc-
what expensive, appears to be the cheap
est way out of the difficulty in which the
city is placed, through the mismanage-
ment of ten years ago. 1t is useless now
to repine about that Encouragement.
A condition confronted the council that
called for action, and two methods pre-
scented themselves. To secure by con-
demnationsthe lands required from Mr..
Stewart, and build the necessary streets,
or, accept this, the best proposition yet
made OF Mr.. Stewart.
The city required more land at the
pumping station; the changing OF b
street so as to run around instead OF over,
the bluff. and road from the end of b
street to the county road. 1t is the
opinion of attorneys that it would be
difficult, if not impossible, to condemn
the road around the bluff, for the reason
that the city has accepted b street only
few feet northward, and could only
give as a reason for wanting the road,
that it did not wish to improve the high
way belonging to it on account OF the ex-
pense. 1t is doubtful if a court will con-
denim private property for such reason.
The city engineer estimates that it will
cost IS 900 to extend B street through
the hill on 10 per cent grade, while
around the bluff the road is nearly level.
The land required at the water works,
and for connecting the city with the
county road would have to be paid for,
even if condemned.
1t was plain to majority OF the conn
Gil that this was the best offer they could
expect, and that to decline it meant to
enter upon tedious course OF litigation,
with dead certainty OF the city having to
pay the costs, whatever might be the de-
termination OF actions. A conservative
estimate would place the probable eX-
pense, litigation and costs, at 81 900,
payment for land and damages, 81 900,
so that to take it for granted that the city
should win all it asked for in the suits,
it would be at cost OF $4,000 and the de-
lay OF year or two, and would then only
be ready to begin the expensive road
building required, with the extreme
likelihood that the cut through the bluff
would be part of it.
On the other hand, by accepting the
Stewart offer, all that the city requires,
including we'll built roads, is obtained at
thecost of $1,000, which is to be paid
only as the work OF road building pro-
crosses, and is completed to the satisfac-
ton OF the council. After looking over
the matter thoroughly, the HERALD has
no hesitancy in commencing the council
for the wisdom of it's decision.

HANsBRoUGH's BILL
Approved by the Commissioner of the
General Land Office at Washington.

Washington. Feb. Ex-senator Hans
brou gh of North Dakota recently referred
to the interior department. for an opin
ion of his bill providing that all moneys
received from the sale of public lands in
the arid and semi-arid regions shall be
set aside as an "arid land reclamation
fund" for tbs construction of reservoirs
and other hydraulic works for the stor
age and diversion of water. Commis-
sioner Hermann of the egeneral land office
has recommended to the secretary of the
interior that favorable report be made
on the bill, with amendments to meet
several suggestions he has offered ~
The commissioner says that the ques-
tion arises whether the government shall
take the position of an individual appro-
priator Or whether it has the power to
take the waters of the arid lands in its
own right. In the former case he thinks
that the secretary of the interior should
be authorized to comply with the state
or territorial laws. But, he says, a re
view of the acts relating to public lands
show that the rights of the government
are superior as regards all unappropri=
ated waters. He says that recent de-
cision of the supreme court clearly indi-
Gates that the United States has the
right to the continued flow of the waters
that have not been already appropriated
