TO CUT STATE PRINTING.
State Officers Discover Old Law
Which Reduces Rates.

State Officers Discover an Old Law
Which Reduces Rates.
The present state administration has
opened fight on the official state paper,
and has decided to reduce the rate paid
for public printing.
For twenty years the state has paid
legal rates for all its newspaper printing
which is 81 d square for the first inser-
ton and fifty cents square for each
subsequent insertion. This is the rate
which has been paid the official state
paper and which has heen paid other
newspapers which have from time to
time been given official printing. This
rate is fixed by law, as is shown by re-
ference to section 3040 of the general
statutes.
Assistant Secretary of State Slower has
discovered an ancient law which he says
should govern in this matter by which he
has decided, on the advice OF Attorney
General Dawes, to be governed in the
future.
The law discovered by Assistant Sec
retary Slower is found in section 6085 of
the general statutes which is the old
state printer law. The state printer at
the time this act was passed had charge
of all the official printing, and there was
no official state paper.
The seventh clause OF this section pro-
vides that the state shall pay for the pub
lication Of matter in newspapers fifty
cents square for the first insertion and
twenty-five cents for each subsequent in
! sertion.
| Mr.. Slower has refused to pay for any
newspaper publications except under this
old act and the Advocate, the official
state paper, will bring suit in the su-
preme court TO test the matter
The Advocates successor as official
state paper will be chosen by the execu-
tive council next Wednesday and the
proprietors of the Breeze, weekly hum
orous paper, who expect to get the
| official printing for next year, are anx-
| ious that the Advocate shall win its case.
