been done right here sevier count would hae the stork ork in tead of it being sent ent to silt salt lake the flage firneis of this count would hie receded the monea mone for the work ork and the county merch ants would ll hie ine had bad that much monea mone in circulation here the call got the work ork and sent it to salt lake cit and salt lake workmen or kmen get the support that should in all fairness cairne q be spen spent there here inthis in this count county the salt lake company that did the printing used what is known as 8 point type when hen the work should haie hae been done in n 6 point ape t pe the use of larger type ype spreads the delinquent list over 29 13 1 3 columns while the same list in the smaller tape would only have taken about 20 columns if space apace is 13 any consideration here is an occasion where work is spread out over one third hird more space than was necessary had the reaper been awarded the contract on tract and had we lost money on it t we ve would have taken our medicine like men and not have made a ahiel a as athe the call is making in gambling paulinee par linee lince the call is what is known as a piker it makes its own figures and then whines about doing what ahat it contracted to do but for the miser able guess work bid of the call in an effort to get the work mork away from the reaper we would hae ame had the contract and would at least hae hac furnished work for employees whose interests are arc in this county |
