newspaper in the county.
On the other hand Spencer's sheet
does not have a bona fide general cir
culation in the county. His weekly
bundle Of papers usually weigh IS
pounds, as one sees it unloaded from
the express car, and after deducting
his exchange list he can (by then al
lowing the largest number Of sheets
possible to that weight) not have
many more subscribers than the min
imum required by law for legal
newspaper, which is 240 paying SUBJ
scribers.
Mr.. Spencer is entitled to make his
bid and have it considered, but he
has no business to try to dictate the
action Of the board. His bid was
exceedingly high considering the SER
vice he could render. Had his bid
been accepted he would have receiv-
ed much more than any one paper
receives under the bid that was &C.
cepted and he would have been under
practically no expense for paper
supplies compared with the papers
that have a general circulation. The
county is now getting thirty times
more publicity and service than
Spencer could have given at only
half again the price.

Owing to increased cost Of living
on every hand and the absolute i'm
possibility we have experienced Of
being able to make living and pay

charged, we have agreed on a mod

The County Printing

Lest anyone misconstrue our sill
ence in the face Of the rawlings of
Printer Spencer, we may be pardon
ed if we state the situation in regard
to the county printing.
The Tribune bid to do all the legal
publishing for the one legal rate es-
tablished by law, and to cause said
printing to be done also in the Will
mar Republican-Gazet the Atwat-
er Press, the Raymond News, the
New London Times and the Green
Lake Breeze without any further
cost to the county.
Spencer bid to do the official print
ing in his sheet for one-half of legal
rates.
The county commissioners decid-
ed after due consideration that the
public interests were best served by
accepting the first bid, which they
proceeded to do in spite of the
threatening and abusive attitude of
Spencer. Not one Of the county COM
missioners nor any county official
had been approached by any member
of the newspaper fraternity Of the
county in regard to the printing.
They were perfectly willing to leave
it to the good judgment Of the coun-
ty board. Had the board given the
publishing to Spencer, the newspa-
pers of the county would have &C
corded them the common courtesy
due public servants and while they
might have deplored their judgment
would have given them credit for
good intentions and they would not
had any personal abuse to face.
There can be no question, however
but that the county board took the
right view Of the matter and that
their action was for the best inter-
ests Of the county. There can be
but one object in the publication of
the official county matter, and that
is that the people Of the county shall
have an opportunity to see what
their servants are doing at the court
house. The commissioners had the
right to take into consideration the
service to be rendered as we'll as the
price.
By accepting the Tribune's bid
they were sure that anyone taking
( either Of the six newspapers of the
county would see the reports of the
doings Of the county officials. These
papers have combined circulation
Of 1t least 1000 in the county and
