PRINTERS STIRRED
TO DEFEND c. P. 0.
Typographical Union Mem
bers Want All Work Done
in Big Shop.

Lest the United States Government
should revert back TO the old system of
having it's printing done by contract,
Columbia Typographical Union, No. 10l,
is conducting an active campaign in an
effort to keep the bulk of the public
printing at the Government Printing Of
hcs. Attractive pamphlets showing a
comparison Of cost of public printing
and work executed at private estab-
iishments and containing extracts from
Congressional debates on the question,
are now being distributed among men,
bers of Congress and other public Of
ficials.
Suggestions that the printing for the
1916 census be let by contract to private
concerns and also that other work now
done at the Government Printing Of
fee be put on the contract basis have
particularly stirred the members of the
Typographical Union.
Million a Year Saved.
Pointing out that the Government has
saved, in comparison with contract
prices, at least s1,oOO,OOO a year since IL
commenced TO do its own printing in
1851, the pamphlet states:
1.-The Government now owns the
largest, best-equipped, and one of the
best managed printing offices in the
world, IN which the public printing IS
executed in most satisfactory man
ner, as cheaply as reasonable wages
to employees viii permit. and with a
promptness, accuracy and excellence
never attained under any other sys-
tenn.
That the contract system and the
schedule-of prices system, under which
the public printing was performed
prior to the establishment of the Gov
ernment Printing Office, were nothing
iess tnan organized systems of fraud.
is well known to every one conversant
with the subject.
Old Systems Vices
"A return TO the thrice-discredited
contract system. which, in the language
of Representative Gurley of Ohio,
author Of the bill establishing the Gov
ernment office. has brought more con-
tempt and disgrace upon our Govern
nlent than have come from any single
cause which can be mentioned, and
kept the Congress OF the United States
fioundering m the mire OF printing
rascality' for more than forty years.
would no doubt mean a return to the
extravaganza. fraud, and inferior work
of former days.
The corruption and scandal inva-
riably grated upon the public print
Ing under the contract system, togeth-
er with the delay and inferior quality
OF the work, forced upon Congress the
necessity for a change from a system
under which the contractor could af-
ford to give a bribe OF $4,000 for the
privilege of doing the work for one Con-
gress, besides 'expending money IN
Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey,
Ohio, and other States in sums
varying from $50 TO $2,250 in which IL
was supposed a little material aid
would carry for us, and have enough
OF the plunder left to give $4,000 a wear

Citizens Relief Association
Renews Its Appeal for
Funds.

While in one day the Commissioners
or the District forwarded their check
TOT SSOo Senator Root sent along a sim
lIar slip of paper calling for $50. and -
Lisher obtained six members for the
rive Dollar Club, the authorities of the
Associated Charities know today that
the receipts of the organization for so
mueh OF 1863 as has passed are nearly
Si,OOO less than receipts for the similar
period in 1905. The Citizens Relief As
sCciation, 1t is stated, is able to show
a slate corresponding TO the one ii had
one year ago. The Association for the
prevention of tuberculosis Is slightly
behind the receipts record of last year.
The $500 check from the Commission
ers which brought gladness TO the eyes
or the association authorities represents
the Interest derived from the invest
ment of the Centennial Inaugural Re

HAS FORT THE
POWER To NAME
STATE ASSESSOR?
Despite Wilson Decision on ad
Interim Appointments, There
Is Doubt in This Case.
.From a stan Correspondent. ]

TRENTON, May 5.-Now that At
torney-General Edmund Wilson has
advised Governor Fort that he has a
legal right to make ad interim appoint
ments, and from the act that Gov
ernor Fort yesterday intimated that he
would in a short time name members
of the county tax boards. it is quite
likely that in the near future the
Governor will make known quite a
number of ad interim appointments
Just whether the opinion of the at
general will affect the status of
State Assessor Baird is a question
which a great many cannot agree upon.
The question which seems to confuse
authorities on the Governors right to
make an ad interim appointment in the
ease of State Assessor Baird is the de-
batable question as to whether after
today there exists a vacancy In the
State Board of Assessors.
The law which governs the %appoint-
ments to the State Board of Assessors
distinctly states hat its members shall
hold office until their term expires and
when their successor in office shall be
by the Senat From the
fact that the successor shall be 0
firmed by the Senate" 1T is held that
tho Governor cannot make an ad in
term appointment for the reason that
no vacancy exists.
