Another Petition.

E. H. Boyer is still agitating.
He has had petition drafted and
we presume will circulate the same.
1t is to Representative Cones, ask
ing him to have bill drafted re-
quiring the board of county COM
missioners to submit the county
printing to bids each year, upon the
receipt of petition asking them to
do so. Now, as everyone knows,
the commissioners may do this any
way if they choose, but Mr.. Boyer
wants to compel them to do so. At
present the law does not require the
board to let the printing to bids,
but can let it to anyone whom they
choose. The law fixes the rates, so
the printer is paid regular fees the
same as other county officers. In
fact their salary is fixed by statute
the same as the other county officers.
We hope our people will take the
same view on this matter as they
have of Mr.. Boyer's clerk hire peti-
ton and not sign it. However, if
he persists in pushing the matter, a
petition protesting will be circulated,
so wait until you see both petitions
before you sign up.

About The Ballots.

| Last week the Globe contained
an article about the charge the News
made for printing the ballots at the
last election. To begin with, the
article is misleading as it states that
only 5000 ballots were printed for
Meade county, when In fact there
was total of 3loo general ballots
with sample ballots, 800 township
ballots with sample ballots and a
total of 3Ioo constitutional amend
ment ballots with samples. For the
sample ballots we made no extra
charge, and for the remainder, under
strict construction of the law, we
could have charged much more. We
left the matter with the county
board and the county attorney and
took what they thought was proper.
We have never over charged the
county for anything and we think it
very unfair for Mr.. Fuhr to even in
innate that there was an over charge.
We are ready at any time to defend
our position in the matter. Mr..
Boyer got an opinion from Attorney
R. w. Griggs which bears out Judge
Selvidge and the County board.
County Atty. Sullivan gave Mr..
Boyer similar opinion, and we
think the gentlemen is convinced
that no exorbitant charge was made.
Mr.. Fuhr's article was inspired by
Mr.. Boyer, and what seems strange
to US is Mr.. Fuhr's position in the
matter. He does not favor reducing
the salaries of the county clerk and
the county treasurer, but he is ready
to jump onto the poor printer, whom
he ought to know by sad experience
in the past, is the poorest paid ser
want of the public.
