SHAMEFUL WASTE OF MONEY.

| Ii any private corporation or large
business were run on such plan as
I the government follows in doing its
! public printing, the result would be
| disastrous within a very short time
| and receiver would be in charge. AS
an example of how the printing bust
ness is done and the shameful extrav.
agance and wastefulness that is prac-
ticed, stands the following dispatch
from Washington City:
The governments printing bill
which amounted to a little over 81
100000 last year, will drop to about
$780, 900 this year, and this in spite
of the fact that a number of new bu-
reaus have been established and sew
eral new laws, including the imnigra-
ton law, the pure food law, and the
railroad rate law. which entailed an
enormous amount of printing, have
come into operation. The congre SSiOn-
al printing commission, of which Rep
Yesentative Charles b. Lands, of In
diana, is the active head, is working
out. plans for a still further reduction
of the printing bill. This commission
will sit here from time to time during
the summer and fall, and when Con-
gress meets again will be prepared to
recommend additional reform Iegisla-
ton.
Just now the commission is wreSt-
ling with the problem of what to do
with the surplus stock of printed mat
ter the government has on hand One
of the acts which the commission got
through congress last year cut off the
printing of more than 100000 vol
umes year, which had been turned
out, not because they were needed,
but because the law said so many vol
umes should be printed.
Millions of these volumes, most of
them obsolete and of no value except
as old paper, are occupying ware
houses here at the capital, for which
the government is paying annually
SIS, 200 in rent. These books are as
sacred from the touch OF any one as
the money in the vaults of the Treas
ury, and the commission has decided
that it will require legislation to dis
pose of them. The enormous saving
this year is traced directly to the
legislation of one year ago, which
made the office or department which
furnished the copy responsible for the
cost of printing. AS a result of this
legislation many government publica-
tions have shrunk to one-half the
of pages they formerly con-
tanned. Mr.. Landis has devoted much
of his time during the last eighteen
months to study of this problem of
government printing, and he is GER
tainly getting results No one is more
pleased with the reforms that have
been brought about than the Presi-
dent, who more than two years ago
called attention to the fact that the
was wasting enormous
sums of money on it's printing.

ed to be through the character of hei
people.
He dwelt on the recent census re
port and showed that it had not done
Richmond credit. His address was
very interesting and inspiring.
A. c. Lindemuth was the champion
of the traction lines for the evening
and he said that Rchmond's future
development rests to a great extent
on the development of new traction
lines. He cited Marion as city
which had Increased in population in
the past few years through the trac
ton lines. He said that the CONNER
cial club should lend all support to
worthy traction line enterprises and
it would be through this and only
through this. that foreign capital could
be in the least interested, as the atti-
tude of local men is always watched in
venture of such character.
Championed Y. NJ. C. A.
In a stirring speech, George H.
Knollenberg championed the Y. M. C.
A and said that it is the duty of ev-
cry member of the Commercial club to
help the cause and it is a test of citi-
zenship that they should do so. AT
the close of Mr.. Knollenberg's re-
marks he was applauded for several
moments, showing the members were
in hearty accord with his remarks.
Attorney John L. Rupe made very
pleasing and entertaining address, the
gist of which was that all men in the
city and particularly the members of
the Commercial club should aid Rich
mond by boosting Richmond.
&. c. Hill Speaks.
E G. Hill too, championed the Y NJ
c. A. and his stand for the associa-
ton was emphatic and he did not
hesitate to tell those who had not yet
given to the cause. that they should
do SO. 1t is their duty, and as men
they should respond cheerfully to the
call, he said.
Mr.. Monarch was again called upon
to tell few stories and anecdotes and
he succeeded immensely.
The banquet served was an excel
lent one while the work of the walters
who were members of the club. did
credit to those who have been in the
business for years. c. d. Slffer was
head waiter and he was assisted by

threatened to destroy the entire build

SIN OF the men tighting the flames.
This building. one of the Oldest
stands on Broad Street. has long been
watched by the Fire Department. 1t
was built almost a century ago. OF
heart pine. and though the timbers
burned like finder, the construction
was so strong that it resisted the cf-
forts OF the iiremen to make q vent for
the escape OF steam and smoke. This
was due largely to the fact that tho
building Is put together with wooden
pegs Instead OF nails. Then. too. 1t
had recently been closely covered with
tin, which was almost air-tisht.
How 1t Started.
I The structure Is occupied by Cliff
Wells cigar store and Whftlock's mil.
linery store, fronting on Broad Street,
and D. Perrin. ladies tailor. fronting
on Fifth Street. AIR. Perrin, with his
family, lived In the upper portion of
the house. where the tire is said to
have started from defective stove
pipe.
In few minutes after the alarm
was turned in. just after 8 O'Clock. en-
gines Nos. 3. 1, and 8 and truck No.
3 were at the place and hard at work.
For some time the firemen were uu-
able to gain any advantage. and it
looked as though not only the building,
which was already on fire. but those
nearby would be destroyed. The big
Fourqurean, Temple & Co. dry goods
establishment was for time In great
danger.

there was q loud report. and huge
sheet Of flame shot out OF the window
in the second story over the little

No. 5. Joe Smith, Of No. 8. and James

crowd watching the stubborn fight 1t
seemed that all six would be killed or
seriously wounded, but true to their
Ltraining, the men turned and fell on
their faces and most of the flame went
over them.

was over In a moment and the firemen
