was authorized by the county court
and was paid, $3.50 on June Z and

records in the office Of the county
clerk.
Several contractors in Washington
say that they would have been very
giud 60 have had the job for $1,000
and would have maed a handsome
profit out OF the job at htat money.
Why then id the county judge go
out Of the county and pay $3.50 for
the work when men in tire county
would have done the job for $1,000?
In any doubt exists in the mind OF
any reader about whether contract

come to this office and we will send
you to at least three contractors who
would have been glad to do tire Jos
for that price.
