II, personally also have sufficient
confidence in the fairness of the tri-
bunal to which the contest must be
submitted that it will give the demo-
Gratis cause a fair trial and we feel
confident that we will have sufficient
legal evidence to establish our claims
to the contested offices.
THE investigation and exposure of
the fraudulent voting. especially the
illegal naturalization of foreigners and
the voting of this class of voters by
gigantic corporate interests-as was
done in Lake county is matter in
which every good American citizen is
vitality interested.
THE abuse of the great privilege of
franchise by this INSCRIPTIONS and I'M
considerable practice as exposed in
Lake county threatens to undermine
| the very foundation of Amer ican citi-
zenship and the democratic party and
the decent c1tlZenS OF lnQldna Will not
tolerate it.
I'VE propose to continue this inves-
tigation and the contest and l appeal
to the democrats of Indiana to lend
their aid and support in this important
undertaking"
| 1t is feared, however, that even in
spite Of this eloquent appeal by the
| state chairman tho rapifhlicans will
feel called upon to go right ahead and
hold the offices to which they were
elected.

To let public work by public contract to the lowest responsible bidder, is good public policy-there is no question about that It is equally fixed prin- ciple of public policy that the public
 monies, created by the taxation Of citizens and their local hCldiugs should TO, be sent abroad for the purchase of that which is CD sale here m Skagway
 by these citizens creating the public funds, provided the price charged isuot unreasonable. A little while ago there was 10 be purchased some fire hose. Bids were called for ard local merchants were awarded the contract although 1t is known these citizens do not carry in stock such goods as was desired. Th.s is, as stated, according to good public policy. Had there been a monufactory Of hose in Skagway employing resident labor, this same public policy would have barred all mere agents from the competition.
 A few days ago bids were called for by the city council for printing the code of laws for the government Of this town There were two bids and the contract was let to Juneau newspaper in the office Of which it Is now being set up. To be sure the bid was cot offered by the Juneau paper but JGe members of the mmit,ee having the matter in charge well knew when it let the contract that jt would go there, because tue other bidder had no aci,i- ties in Skagway for doing the work,

PUBLIC POLICY

But even at this saving to the city the question of public policy arises in sending SkogwaY's city printing to another city to be done-and in view ol the certain loss to the contractor the question rso of responsibility arises. The work is let to "rhe lowest responsi- Dlc bidder"
 We have very recent case very much in point. A little while ago the city council, troubled over this very mat CT of the city laws awarded 10 tha editor Of the Juneau Record without the iormaiity Of calling for bids a conrrac, for arranging, indeEing, and making a transcript in typewri.ing Of all ordi- nauces for the convenience of the coun- cl. No particular sum was thought necessary 10 be stipulated in this case, the council being satisfied with h's declaration that it would be "somc- where in the neighborhood Sl5O. ' The ordinances were to be cypswriClcn and arranged in a book SO that they could be readily referred to. When, after long delays and much vexatiOn and complaint the work was finally turned over, TWO books were pre- sented, one being a carbon copy of the other and the bill that came with it was for $25O-the added $lOO ing for the carbon copy. There had been nc request for Q copy-it v as not wanted oI called for. Members of the council en- quired by what authority there hsC been two books prepared and why they should be expected to pay iol what they had not ordered. NJ ma mGer of the council admitted hay

THE CITY PRINTING

The Alaskan was asked some time ago to put in a bid for "the city print. ing" It's bid was lower than any other-both for job work and for the newspaper publication Of notices and ordinances. But lhe committee in charge exercised their discretion and divided it up," giving the job work, the printing Of stationary and such, TO THE HIGHER BIDDER. The Alas kan made no complaiut--it was to be done in Skagway. But recently large newspaper publication, that of the de- linquent tax list, clearly a part of the public printing" the exclusive right to print which was a stipulation of the Alaskan's low bid and written contract with the city, was given 10 the other bidder "by mistake" 1t was said. Still the Alassan made no protest But it has since learned that this three columns of composition was beyond the limits Of the facilities Of it's local competitor and
 the composition was done iu the office
