M'NAIR PRESIDENT.
Halstead Man at Head of Millers
Association.

Now comes the Kansas Millers' asso-
citation with plans to secure legislation
which will remove the determinations
which the members allege exist in the
freight tariff schedules of the roads do
ing business in Kansas.
The association which was in annual
session yesterday afternoon and last
night declares that the rate on flour to
seaboard points is five cents higher
than the rate on wheat. They claim
this keeps the flour in the state, but
takes the wheat out. To dispose of the
flour is the problem now confronting
the nillers.
The association wants relief and be-
Heves that none can be secured until
the legislature meets, for which the
new president was authorized to name
committee to lock after needed laws
The president will announce the COM
mittee at an early date, so that the
work which is before it may be com
menced
The association elected the following
officers for ths ensuing year:
President. H. McNair, Halstead.
Vice president-A. J. Hunt. Arkansas
City
secretary-C. ". Topping, Enterprise,
reelected
TreasureF-David Bowie. Topeka

journed last night.

JAPANESE MARKET.
For American Wheat and Flour is
Growing Rapidly.

washington. July 13.-Vice Consul Cen
kohama on the subject of the importa-
ton of American flour into Japan. He
says that the use of flour is not confined
to the large cities of Japan, but is be-
coming common throughout that coun-
try. He speaks of three or four American n
built flour mills, the largest having ca
pacity of $50 barrels "a day, that are now
helping to supply Japan with flour. There
are many small native mills of hand and
water power throughout the country but
their product is of a coarse character, and
they do not compete to any extent with
the imported stocks. American wheat
also is being imported into Japan and
the considerable amount of flour made
from it is Being sold there. The demand
for flour throughout the Orient is rapidly
increasing, the best points of consump-
tfon at present being Russian possessions
IN northern China and eastern Siberia.

HOW To SAVE.
State Printing Problem Appears
to Have Been Solved.
The Institutions No Longer In
cur Large Bills.
NO DEFICIENCY NOW.
Printing Fund Has Not Been
Thrown Broadcast.
Work Has Been Done Nearly a
Year Ahead.
0 DEFICIENCY NOW.

Two years ago there was a deficiency
of over $4,000 in the state printing fund.
and this deficiency was made up by the
legislature.
The printing fund within the last ten
or fifteen years has been the subject of
general onslaught by the various state
departments. and the state institutions.
too, have continued to make more or less
periodical raids upon the fund whenever it
was possible. At no time within the last
ten years has the legislature passed a
regular session without making up a
large sum as a deficiency in this class of
work This was due to many causes, but
the prlnclpal one was that no effort was
made to keep the expenditures within the
appropriation.
It has been the custom to print all sorts
or circulars, long letters, and everything
that could be imagined, even in small
numbers. The state printer has turned
which could have been done easily by the
corps of typewriters and stenographers
employed in the state educational inSt1-
tutiops and in the other institutions and
the state house.
Last winter the state auditor made an
investigation and discovered that large
amount of printing being done by
local printers in the towns where the
Gated. It was found that this printing
was done with funds collected as fees of
various kinds, and the auditor ruled that
all fees collected at the various state
educa donal institutions should be turned
into the state treasury
Thiss caused a revolution, particularly
in the printing business at these inStitu-
tionS, because money was left to do
the printing, and the various officers were
ordered to have all their printing done by
the state printer.
This made a large amount of extra
printing, payment for which of necessity
has come from the general appropriation
for printing allowed the state depart
ments. Notwithstanding all of this extra
work the present administration, through
the management of the secretary of state,
George A. Clark, who is practical
printer, has closed this fiscal year with
out deficiency.
The sum of s1.04 has been turned back
to the state treasury. being an unexpend-
ed balance in the appropriation for print
ing for the fiscal year which ended June 3D.
The volume of business which has come
mated by the fact that the bulletins is,
sued by the state agricultural college alone
cost s., 600 per year
Instead of having a deficiency, Secre-
tary Clark has so managed the printing
that nearly So 600 worth of work which is
scheduled for the fiscal year which ends
next June has been disposed of as fol-

Mayor Drew's Reason For Not Ad-
dressing Protective League
Meeting.

The Citizens Protective league meet
ing which was called for last night was
not well attended, probably on account
of the heat and because the action
taken by the council on the waterworl<s
question was considered sufficient for
the time being. Neither A. L. Williams
nor L A. Stebbins who were expected
to address the meeting were present
and the chairman decided to adjourn
the meeting indefinitely. Mayor Drew
was uHesent and was called upon for a
speech but declined to respond, giving
as his reasons that while the present
negotiations were pending the less talk
ing done the better.
