The Printers Win.

The printers all over the country
have been protesting against the in
justice of the government printing
return cards on envelopes for about
the price of two cent stamp which
were on them, claiming that the gov
eminent should no more enter into a
competition with the printing trade
than with retail merchandising. The
practice has, it is said, at last been
abolished, and the printers will re-
caive the two or three million dollars
which heretofore been annually paid
the government for this work.

much money ON deposit there, | de-
sire to say, that my predecessor S. H.
Pouder turned over to me $4,000
which he had ON deposit in the Citi-
zens Bank. The principal officers and
directors of that Bank being on my
bond for county revenue | continued
the deposit there and had the S14,OOO
placed to my credit as Trustee.
For the convenience of the tax payers
of the Sth, 9th and 10th districts. |
employed Charles Mcneil to collect
their taxes and instructed him to de-
post in said Bank his collections. 1t
takes about $1,000 per month to pay
the expenses of the schools aand
courts at johnson City, while the
schools are in session, and these pay
ments were always made by checks on
that Bank. Not one cent of the taxes
outside of the three districts named
were sent to Johnson City. Five
thousand dollars of the State tax was
sent to Nashville from the johnson City
Bank, which was a duly authorized
Bank of deposit for State revenue.
