Mr. MEIGHEN.
Will we get the information before these estimates are passed?
February 11, 1909
Mr. MEIGHEN.
I find an item of $48.40 for advertising for tenders for supplies. Was a tender asked for dry goods, and was the lowest tender accepted?
February 11, 1909
Mr. MEIGHEN.
Who was the lowest tenderer?
February 11, 1909
Mr. MEIGHEN.
The minister can accept the tender as to one item, and reject it as to another. Is that not so?
February 11, 1909
Mr. MEIGHEN.
Do you call for tenders for molasses? I find molasses appearing in three different places. Molasses appears in the Crawford account and in the Maclean account, at different prices.
