- - — L N TTPr TR AR R THE i iR g Nebraska STATE'S PRINTING OPEN T0 THE WORLD Democrats at Lincoln Decide to Re- ceive Bids for Public Work from Qutside Firms. | MAY RESULT IN LOWER mcns' (From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOL May 2.—(Special.)—Free trade is to be exemplified by the dem- ocrats in letting contracts for state print- ing. Nebraska print shops are to bid | against Chicago and other foreign houses in the future. While business interests of Nebraska are engaged in a campaign of education in which the slogan is “Stand up for Ne- braska” and “Patronize Nebraska-Made Goods,” the state will have an oppor- tunity to stand up for itself. Today a representative of one of the big printing firms of Chicago arrived in Lincoln and he has given it out that he proposes to camp here until the bids are let. Just what this will mean, of course, will be determined when the bids are | opened. Recently the state saved about $600 or more in jetting a printing contract to a Missouri firm and this may have the re (sult of bringing lower bids from the DNebraska firms which have been in the | habit of getting the work. The bids will | be let next Friday. | First Alfalfa Grower | Of the State Is Dead AUBURN, Neb., May 2.—(Special.)— Bernard Ottens died at his home in this city yesterday, lacking a few days of being 87 years of age.
