CITY PRINTING.

The board of town trustees has
awarded the town advertising to o.
b. Moon, of the Independent, at
IS cents an inch, which is Just about
the actual cost of setting the type.
We have no criticism to offer, be-
cuase the board undoubtedly did what
it considered best for the town in the
way of saving it money, although his
typographical bulls may make it
most expensive in the end yet one can
not help but sympathize for deluded
individual who will offer to do work
at starvation prices He is simply
giving his time free, but we presume
be has a surplus Of that on hand.
However, it is not Moons desire to
save the people money that prompted
his pauper bid His motives are not
good Ii is charged that he approach
ed other bidders for ths county print
ing with a proposition to hold the
county up for high prices and divide
the spoils, We we're approached by
MIN with the same proposition on
the city advertising. He proposed
10 charge the city tull legal rates aud
wanted the one who was awarded the
contract to give the other 4 10 per cent
Of the gross proceeds During the
conversation he admitted that be
thuoshE the Prses stood the best
show, which revealed the colored
gentleman in the woodpile. He
thought We would get the printing
and be would simply blackmail US
for - per cent Of the amount. He
even threatened TO put in a bid at
the very lowest figure if We refused
to aceede to his demands As We are
not in the habit OF being coerced by
any one We informed him that be
might 90 ahead and the poor man
took our advice aud has agreed to do
the work for nothing when he might
have bid higher rate and made even
a small profit The Press is not in
the pauper class and figures on a fair
profit for its work, both advertising
and printing, and when others wish
10 work for fun we are perfectly will
ing to pass it up. This office turn.
