tation for bids for the County Printing

l respectfully submit the following
proposal:
That we will give a discount of
twenty-five per cent. for publishing the
Proceedings of the Board of County
commissioners as covered by Section
Two Of the Revised Laws of 1919, and
by the Thirty-first Legislative Session
Of 1851. That for all other Publica.
tons as provided for under the above
mentioned Law. we will give discount
of five per cent.
said County, through Its duly author
lied officers or agents, we will give
discount of five per cent from the
prices enumerated in the Code. except
as applicable to Section Twelve Q2)
mentioned Chapter. which prices as
enumerated In the Code are for Spec.
ial Ruled and Printed Forms and Bound
Books. These forms are especially
to be sub.let to book.binding manu-.
facturers, of which there are only a
few in Montana, and the law REQUIRES
that where County Printer cannot
handle the work in his own shop he
within the state of Montana, and the
work must be done with Mantana
Labor. These manufacturers have
progressively raised their prices to
County Printers, until the price for
bound books is now net to the County
Printer, and on the large ruled forms.
only 10 per cent. is allowed SO that this
particular class of business is handled
at an actual loss to the contracting
printer.
On all other printed orders and sup-
plies, ordered under this proposed Con-
tract, we will give a five per cent. dis
count

livered with transportation costs pre-
paid, to the DESIGNATED point of de-
bond in an amount agreeable to the
