Then there was trouble, flitter tears
and smothered sighs gave way to hot
' words and angry glances. It was all
over the awarding of the city printing.
Welch presented a minority report from
' the ways and means committee. In
which he reviewed the bids of the aev
: eral paers. That of the Evening
J. S. IH-lllnger made the best bid on
blank forms; and Welch recommended
that the city enter into contracts with
Del linger and the Budget. Mr. Parker,
another member of the ways and means
committee, stated that he did not agree
with Welch's report and asked further
time In which to report. Young, the
third member, never said a word. He
'was still sad.
Welch said he was In favor of not
granting Parker further time. He said
there should be no "spite work " in the
matter, and that, as the Budget's bid
was the lowest, that paper should have
the printing. Bergman dashed a tear
drop from his eye. looked again at the
water pitcher, and concurred In what
Welch sold. McGregor thought It a
sired time, and the motion was lost-
yeas, McGregor, Thompson, Parker and
Slverson; nays. Bergman, Schlebe,
Scherneckau, Welch and Young.
Parker said he disliked very much to
oe forced to make a report before he
was ready, but that he would make one
nevertheless. In this report he set forth
that the three dally papers had entered
lnto a combine as to the city printing;
i"u i-iu-uiiiBiauuiti evaucnue wiimn

charge a reasonable price for he work.
(It might not be amiss to state that the
papers charge business men twenty-
four times as much for local advertls-
jlng as the city, figuring on the contract
let List night. A square, twelve lines
of nonpareil, Insterted ten times, costs
a business man $6.60, while the city

went on to state that the combine fnJl-

Astorian. He said the Astorlan was
t the nearest approach to a newspaper In
ithe clt'- wlth a bl circulation, and
that Its kindly offices In saving the
city from great expense by the with
drawing from the trust should be re
warded and a contract entered Into
with It for the city printing at the price
of the bid, 8 and 8. He was against
awarding the contract to the Budget.

mat'nr waa wlfh the budget, and Par

Welch wanted the Hudgnt to get the

"You've changed your mind some

suggested Parkor. This was unexpect

mitted that he had changed hla mind.
(It Is asserted that Bergman, Welch
and the Budget are all of the same po

the course of his remarks. In which he
used many exclamation points, he said
he personally favored the Aatorlan,
