lishing all such matters as they may be required by law to cause to be
published in Kent County, Maryland, in two newspapers, except the
public local laws which may be passed by the General Assembly of
Maryland; such notice asking for bids for said printing shall run for
two consecutive issues and shall state the date and hour which bids
for such printing will be opened; and the County Commissioners shall
award the contract for such printing for a period of one year, to two
or more responsible newspapers making the lowest bids for such
printing, provided such contract shall not allow for such printing a
sum exceeding in the aggregate One Thousand Dollars. In the event
