Where Find a Market?

But where could we find a market
for the increased production OF 9TH
er stapels? Everywhere. Wherever
there is poverty, wherever there is
a drunkard, a drunkard's wife, or
a drunkard's child. Stop the
drain Of wages into the whiskey
and beer till, and provide instead
proper food, clothing and shelter
for the millions suffering for the
necessities Of life, and in twelve
months that would exhaust the
stored supplies of our Nation and
drive every factory and farm with
a hum and q rush to meet the new
demand.-me amethyst.

Temperance and Missions.

We have a letter from a valued
correspondent in an eastern state
touching the subject of this article.
We quote the following, with per-
mission, emitting names for
obvious reasons.
81 am sure that the problem
will be solved when the women of
the church take it up, but they
never will until urged to do so by
their pastors or by the Presbyte-
rial Societies.
In my own home town can see
how the indifference of our Pres
byterian women-they are the in
fluential women of the place
fortifes and strengthens the
liquor element.
l have see men lying out
stretched on the sidewalk appar-
entity dead and others lying on the
ground or in the gutter almost
paralyzed from the effects of strong
drink. Very few arrests are made
because the people are in sympa-
thy both with the drunkard and
the saloonkeeper. There have
been shocking deaths here result
ing from the drink evil. Drunken
men have walked into the canal
where they met death; they have
been found dead in the gutter, on
ash heaps and killed by the To-
connective and trolley. An inn
preston on the public mind is
created for the moment, but the
general feeling is one OF indiffer"
ence.
I am perfectly familiar with our
Women's Missionary Societies,
having been a Presbyterian all my
life, and at one time Secretary OF
a Woman's Missionary Society
| cannot recall a word ever having
been said in favor of temperance
reform in all the years that have
been a member of the Society.
We lament the death of the
heather, but we are so accustomed
to drunkards that we do not seem
to care about the salvation of their
souls.
Poor wives and mothers are
going distracted because their
loved ones are being enticed into
the saloon. A minister remarked
in my hearing, "1he saloon would
soon go if all the women were in
terested."
One poor woman-my laundress
tells me that she cannot sleep al
night because of her boy; the
saloonkeepers will sell him drink
although she has pleaded with
them not to do so, and this woman
has two sons, one grown to man.
hood and the other nearing man
hood, who can neither read MOI
write, and they are the product Of
the saloon. When they wert
small and under a fathers atten'
ton, that father spent his time II
saloons, leaving his wife to sup
port the family and her life ha'
been most miserably spent owe:
the washtub. 1 appeal to you tc
bring this matter to the attention
of the women of our church
Surely the cup of iniquity is full
and the power of the liquo
element must be crushed and WI
can do it through the women o
our church; they must be enlisted
in the temperance reform."-4h

ADVANCE IN
. COST Of PRINTING
SPECIAL CONGRESSIONAL COM
MTTTEE MAKES REPORT AS TO
THE LARGE EXPENDITURE IN
PRINTING REPORTS.
(By Associated Press.)

WASHINGTON, Feb. Coon
slant and uninterrupted growth of
the cost of printing has increased
this item of public expense from
100000 in 1910 to more than ST.
100000 in 1908, according to the
report of the printing investigation
commission created four years ago
which submitted today to congress
report covering its extensive in
quiry. The commission consists of
| the two committees on printing Of
the two houses of congress and Sen
ator Plat as chairman.
Savings of more than 100000
year are being effected, according to
| the report, as the result of legisla-
ton recommended from time to
time, giving the joint committee on
printing certain powers of supervis-
ion. 1t states that under recent
legislation 279,59S,S37 printed
pages, including such expensive pub
| LEGATIONS as the congressional record,
the publications of the geological sur
vey and the year book of the depart
ment of agriculture are eliminated
from the surplus printing which had
formerly been piling up in ware
houses to finally be condemned and
sold as waste
The saving on these three classes
of publication was about 100000.
These publications had been piling
up until there were more than $500
tons in storage, enough to fill an
ordinary railroad train more than
three miles long. Rent for that por-
ton of these publications stored out
side of government buildings was
more than 10000 a year.
Many department reports have
been reduced in volume and others
have been recommended for discon-
tinuance as a result of the discovery
by the commission that the various
are submitting their reports to con-
gress and having them put in type
at congressional expense, after which
the department used the plates for
it's own publication.
The growth of expenditures, it IS
shown, have been given backward
until the expenditures for the last
three years, compared with 1905,
show an average annual reduction of
10 per cent.
The commission holds the revision
of the printing law which is the
growth of seventy years is neces-
sary.
The report says that the commits
sion's policy has been to build
printing law by distinct parts which
could later be intelligently codified.
Recommendation are made for a
discontinuance of bulk appropria-
tions, having for reports from the
public printers, showing the product
of the offices, and that the powers of
inquiry now vested in the commission
be conferred upon the joint commits
sion on printing, the speaker to ap-
point before the close of each con-
gress temporary commission on
printing to serve until the appoint
ment of the next regular committee.
The commission is composed of
Senators Plat, Elkins and Milton,
and Representatives Lands, Perkins
and Finley.
