Paving G. P. O. Employees.

1t is announced that the paymaster OF
the government printing office Will start
the semi-monthly payments to employees to-
morrow. However, there is a string on the
announcement, for it is impossible to pay
all the employees of the printery in one day
and some must wait until Tuesday and
Wednesday of next week.
The law provides that when all vouchers
have been turned in to the treasurer of the
United States the Office may draw 100000
in a lump sum, which is about one-fourth
of the monthly payroll. To facilitate the
payment of the workers, they are divided
into four classes, one group receiving pay
on each of the four days succeeding the
first and fifteenth Of the month. and the
Intervention of holiday necessarily de-
lays the work to that extent. The action OF
the cashier in commencing his disburse-
ments Saturday will mean that no delay
will be experienced by the fact that mex,
Monday is Labor day.
