THING ABOUT STATE PRINT
ING BILLS.
MORE ABOUT THAT SUBJECT.
The Globes Publication Has Set
the Taxpayers to Thinking
and Wondering.

Secretary of State Berg yesterday
refused to allow Glob reporter
to see samples of work printed for
the census bureau, and also refused
TO allow examination of itemized
bills from the firms doing the work.
In doing so he said the bills were
officially in his care until his annual
report is made out; and sarcastically
referred the reporter to the auditors
office, where public records and pa
pers are open to public inspection at
all times and where the copies of the
bills were made in the first place,
after a demand on State Auditor
Dunn. Mr.. Berg had previously re-
fused to accede to a similar de-
mand.
The publication of the three spe-
cimen state printing bills in the
G O b e of Sunday morning was re-
ceived with approval and disapprov-
la. With the public generally the
publication made a, hit, because it
was seen that, if the bills can stand
inspection, no injustice is done; while
If they are exorbitant, as appears on
their face to be the case, a distinct
service has been rendered the public
interests by the expose of the ex-
ceedingly generous prices that are
being paid for the state printing.
AS it had not been possible to Sc

The size of this warrant is 71axS1a,
business man can get similar blanks
made and bound; 100 in a

book, a good, fair price, to
so cents, the outside limit, in lots
of five books or more. Twelve dol
lars for 1000 is more than double
commercial rates. Further along in
in at So. One thousand orders a
similar blank, are also charged for
at the rate of $12 a thousand.
After duly considering these speci-
men instances, senators and repre-
sentatives in the next legislature
will doubtless cease to wonder ait
| any deficiency there may be in the
census bureau appropriation.
Failing to secure any samples Of
work from Mr.. Berg, or much salts
faction, beyond the statement that
census bureau work was necessarily
| rush work, the reporter went to the
state auditors Office. Mr.. Dunn was
! elected on what was almost a per-
, sonal platform, of uncompromising
| | honesty in administration of public
office. Despite this fact, he was
naturally backward answering ques-
tions touching the state printing
bills. 1t is no secret about the state
| house that there has been trouble
] over these bills; nor is it any secret
| that the auditors office refused to
issue vouchers on warrants for
| printing until itemized bills were
| filed with such warrants. To be
sure, the bills do not show any
thing as to the amount of work or
kind of material furnished; but they
do bear the o. K. of Mr.. Berg as
| secretary of state, and thus become
surety to the auditor that the work
has been done and delivered.
Mr.. Dunn was asked about the
$4,000 appropriation for state print
ing that became available Aug. 1,
and it's present condition.
| "That fund is exhausted, to an
swer the last part of your question
first" said the auditor. Before it
! became available at all warrants
were outstanding against it to the
amount of over S15,O0O-$15, ,29S.SS, to
be exact-and the balance was soon
paid out"
What do you do with bills for
state printing under the contract
when the fund is exhausted?"
1.-THE only thing we can do is to
issue ipterest-bearing vouchers in
| favor of the contractors as the work
is done and delivered. These vouch-
ers will be paid when next years
appropriation becomes available 1t
is a bad system, in my opinion, and
I would gladly aid in shutting down
on it If it were possible. We may
find way to do it YETI
To questions regarding differences
over printing bills and the holding
up of warrants unaccompanied by
bills, Mr.. Dunn replied these were
matters he did not care to discuss
| at this time
| Will the printing commission hold
a meeting soon?''
81 am only one of three men on
the committee, Mr.. Berg and Mr..
Koerner being the other two: but I
think 1t likely we shall hold a meet
ing before long, in the natural course
of business
"Will these printing bills be taken
up them

And that was all Mr.. Dunn would

HinrichSen Tells HOW the UOi0
Standard Is TO Be lIRiveted."
MEMPHIS, Tenn, Sept. 23.-The
meeting Of the Democratic silver lead
ers, called to put into practice the con-
clusions reached at the conference held
in Washington last month, is in ses-
sion here today. There are present
Senators Harris and Jones, of Arkan-
sas; W. r. HinrichEen, chairman of
the Illinois Democratic association;
Gov. Stone of Missouri; Hon. Casey
Young, of Memphis, and others OF less
er note Senator Turpie, of Indiana, is
the principal absentee, being detained
at home The chief object of this meet
ing is to appoint chairmen for the dit
ferent states, who are to organize the
silver forces with a view to capturing
the state delegations to the National
Democratic convention. The leaders
here seem hopeful Of accomplishing
this result, particularly Mr.. H1nr1ch-
sen. He says the Democracy of the
South and the doubtful states OF the
West are for free silver and will vote
for it in the next election. He reiter-
ated his former declarations as to the
policy and purposes or the administra-
ton. Cleveland, he Eaid, would bring
on a war with Spain about Cuba, event.
ualIy with England. This would give
him an excuse to call for big issue
of bonds and rivet the gold standard
on the country, and would besides
clear the way for a third term.
The silver leaders remained in con-
ference until late this evening, when
it was announced that none of their
deliberations would be made publlc,
as the executive committee they mad
met to select had not been completed.
! The names of the representatives OF
| a number of states upon this commit
| tee were gone over, and while in some
| cases the selection is final, in others
| further conference and correspondence
| will be necessary. To give out the
| names of the members of the partially
| formed committee 1t was thought would
| have a bad effect. The leaders are
| proceeding carefully in the selection
| of these heads of state organizations,
| as they desire to secure men IN full
| sympathy with the free silver COIN
age movement, but who will carry on
the work of agitation and organize
| vigorously.
This, afternoons conference conclud-
| ed the deliberations of the leaders in
this city. In an interview tonlght
| Senator Jones, of Arkansas, said he
| thought there would be no financial
| legislation by the coming congress,
| owing to a. lack of accord between the
| president and congress. He had no
| doubt, however, that President Cleve-
| to congress a $50, ,O00, 600 bond issue and
! the retirement of greenbacks, Wnlch
would reduce the circulating medlum
/ about 81 per capita.

CHICAGO, Sept. 23.-An electric troll
ley line, offering quick service and
cheap transportation from Chicago to
the lake region north, is what is pro-
posed by the Chicago & Wisconsin In
land Lakes Railroad company, which
has just been incorporated by Chicago
capitalists, under the laws of Wiscon-
sin. Survey of the route will be begun
at an early date, and If the company's
plans materialize the road will be
ready for service by the opening of the
lake resort season next summer. The
route of the projected line is not as
yet specifically laid down, but it is pro-
posed to run from some central point
in Chicago to Madison, Wis. with branch
lines to all the intermediate lake re-
sorts. If found advisable line will
be run also to Milwaukee, and the en-
tire system further extended.

MoDahan is the name of the unknown
man found by julie Fuller In Roberd's s
Lake this morning. Coroner Sealey has
held an inquest. 1t is believed death
was the result of murder, though the
body had a rope around the neck with
stone attached, and it may have been
a case of suicide. Monahan was
around the city about a week; he
was formerly employed by the Red
Wing Marble Works company, here
He boarded at a hotel and had plenty
of money. His pocket book containing
a large amount of checks had the ap-
pearance of being opened and the
money taken out, and a ten-dollar bill
placed back in a crumbled condition.
The remains were brought to this city
and placed with the undertaken await
ing burial
