PRINTING.-The Secretary of the Treasury
having fully decided to take q way the print

the work done by the Bureau of Engraving

Mr.. Mcpherson, the chief of the bureau, is
taking the required steps to have everything
in readiness to begin the work on the terms
nation OF the three months notice given fine
bank note companies. Some of the repre-
sentatives of the bank companies have been
here TO ascertain definitely whether it was
the intention OF Secretary Sherman in giving
them notice terminating existing contracts
TO secure lower rates and then allow the
companies to retain the work They have
bs en- Informed that Secretary Sherman has
decided that 1t is for the best interest OF the
government that the work should be done by
the department itself, and that II Is not his
intention to invite them to submit new pro-
posals for doing this class of work. The New
York and Washington bank note compauies
will be invited, however, to submit proposals
for printing for one impression or the ma
tfonal bank notes. and probably the legal
tenders. Mr.. Mcpherson will also be re-
auested TO submit the proposed cost of doing
this one impression by the Bureau of Eu-
craving and Printing. II IL Is found that this
class OF work can be done as cheaply by the
kovernM emit az by the bank note companies
this work also VIII be taken away from the
latter.

Democratic United States senators in

such manner as TO throw the majority
Of federal voters into districts by them

Boston Sentinel, the Federalist organ,
