WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-The investigation
into the management of the Government Print

Of the week. 1t is strange but it is true, that,
Notwithstanding the beginning of this investiga-
ton, the Public Printer continues to permit
work to pile up and be delayed. and Congress to
experience great Inconvenience from the lack
of diligence and an adequate force of employees.
The investigation will show that it is true that
the Public Printer has done more work, and is
doing more, with a smaller number of men than
his predecessor did; but it is well known that
the increased work done by the reduced force is
account of extra hours being worked. Bene-
dict cut down the force from $500 to 2. 600, but
he has worked tho employees more than enough
extra hours to bring the cost to the government
up to what it was before the reduction. His
object in doing this was two-fold: to make Con-
gress and the country believe that he was prac-
ticing economy by working smaller force. and
to permit his friends in the Office to make large
salaries by working extra hours. l understand
that, in the event certain things are proven that
have been promised by those who have instigat-

WASHINGTON, Feb 1.-The debates which
were had in secret session of the Senate on the

aside until next December account of the
fight by Mr.. Riddlebereer, of Virginia. demon
strated that the opposition to open sessions for
the consideration of what is now termed execu-
tive business does not come from sense of
justice TO the public good. There were num-
Der OF Senators who voted against postpone
ment of the treaty. and who were, therefore. in
favor of its ratification. who would have voted
the other way had everything been done openly.
Mr.. Riddiebereer says that it the Senate had
concluded to take up tho treaty in open session
it could not have secured bakers dozen for
ratification. as every Senator who favored the
treaty would affront all Irish American citizens
and native Americans who are in sympathy with
the struggle in Ireland for local government It
10 unfortunate that Mr.. Riddlebereer has not
kept sober and conducted himself in more
courteous and mild way, as he could have forced
the Senate by proper course. to have thrown
the doors in the consideration of this treaty,
and that would undoubtedly have been the en-
tering wedge for the abolition of this dark-age
policy of star-chamber procedure.
