The mayor aaid that while the Recoro did not aup- port him it had treated him fairly snd 80 faras he was concernedhe should favor an equal division of the city .print- ing. Aldermen Clute, Hooson, Eduren, Thompeon‘and McCrae saidthat they would favor a division of the print- ing. Aaithe Rzcorp did not oppose any.of the aldermen who were elected it bad some‘excuere for ‘believing they meant what'they said. If we should acknuwl- edge that we did not.put much confi- dence in what Mayor Goodeve- said we -would'tell:the whole truth,:and-his ar- ‘Ditrary conduct im - giving the ‘printing “out testifies ‘fally_ ‘that our suspicions ‘were well founded. As the’ bulk of the “printing waa going to the other paper we have taken occasion-to mention the ifaet'to the'mayor and several members of the council, and the assurance was alwayas.given that it would be divided. At.1l o'clock , yesterday we asked the mayorif the Miner-was to -get both ‘of thp'money bylaws ‘to print, and he -as- sured us that he did ‘not know what would'be done about it asthe matter had not ‘been discussed by the commil- So far. as. any committee wai Goiscezned perhaps the ‘mayor told‘the truth, but so‘far as'him not knowing in what pa~ per the bylaws wore to be published we are sorry to-say:that-he didnot. They. ‘wereat that:time atthe Miner office and'he knew it. Proofs of them were in ‘tho'evening ‘submitted to the council meeting. We have long since learned not to believe him, at least upon the eubjectiof the city printing. If-he cares to call at this office and inquire, we can ‘give him the names of several of his main supporters at the recent election, who say he :bas not kept'a .single prom- jee miade:before election, and this ia the: Teagon they say ‘they willoppose any money bylaw which is presented while he ia mayor. So. far-‘as thecity printing is concerned, he could justes well ‘have been fair, open and'truthfal about it, and eaid he would favor. giving. it tothe Miner. We ‘would have respected him forhis ‘hon- eaty and frankness at leaat. Inthe first place the printing should: be let-by tender, as should the .grading of Lincoln stse.t and other city work. ‘We do not believe that the high band-| | ed methods of the present adminietra- tion is meeting the approval and expec- tations of the people. We believe they | williatthe first opportunity show their disapproval.
