True Democrat: The general as
sembly pays the state printer nearly
eleven dollars per thousand for com
mon letter heads. This is bordering
on the fabulous prices of the late
state printer who charged the state
twelve dollars and eighty cents per
thousand for an inferior article OF
letter heads and was then forced to
return into the state treasury over
two hundred dollars on extra steal
age. The rebating process should
be renewed.
