priated only the usual annual amount for
this purpose , and the estimate of $038,000 ,
which would have been necessary to carry
nit the law , is not allowed. The committee ,
in Its Investigation , found that these limbs
lid not rc < iuire frequent renewing , and that
laitn agents were chiefly instrumental in
securing the passage of the law.
In the bill as reported , nothing was given
to the World's fair , for the reason that Its
appropriations have already exceeded $500-

law. nnd any now appropriations would bo
subject to a point of order from a single

CITY'S ' PRINTING CONTRACT ,
Trouble Slay Arise From Awarding lit to
Klopp & Ilurtlett.
The Omaha Typographical union has in.-ulo
n vigorous protest against the awarding of
the city's printing to Klopp & Bartlctt , a
shop which Is classed as unfair by the union.
Yesterday a protest was filed against tlio
council's ' action in giving the printing to the
concern , nnd the union claims if the wrong
they feel united labor has received is not
righted , to make considerable trouble for
several of the aldermen.
The city's printing amounts to about $9,000
a year , nnd this , the union asserts , ought to
bo given to a house employing union men.
Several well known printing houses made
bids on the worlt. These were referred to
the council commlttco on printing. It recom
mending in favor of Klopp & IJartlctt as
being the lowest bidders. Whether or not
this Is the case is a question that may admit
of some discussion. In speaking of the mat
ter , Mr. Kennedy of the Typographical
union denounced the council's action and as
serted that City Comptroller Olson , to whom
the bids were referred for classification , hud
stated that the bid of the Omaha 1'rintlng
company was the lowest ,
In dofcnso of the council committee's ac
tion , Councilman Saunders last nltrht said :
"Uy awarding the contract to Klopp &
Uartlott the city saves S150. The commlttco
went over and tabulated every item ] of the
bids , taking into consideration the amount
of each article used. No favors were shown
any bidder , ns wo considered only the city's
Interests. Wo could do nothing but report
In favor of the lowest bidder. No member
of the printers' union or anybody else over
intimated to mo what class of printers are
employed In the different printing houses ,
and J did not then know , nbr do I now know ,
whether Klopp & Bartlett nro employing
nonunion men. I believe the Intel-view with
Mr. Kennedy does the committee an Injustice.
Thu committee was unanimous In Its report ,
nnd I ( hlnk the council will sustain the posl
tlon wo have taken. "
