PRINT SQUABBLE
FINALLY SETTLED
Board of Public Affairs Make $500
Saving to State in Pipe
Reed Bill.

Guthrie, Okla June 4.-The Pipes
Reed company has finally settled with
the state; the state board Of public
affairs giving an ultimatum yesterday
as to what it would recommend.
This case grew out of publishing the
statutes per order of the first legisla-
ture.
The bill for same, $4,000 was not
ordered paid by the second session
the protest against acceptance being
loud. long and painful to the printing
concern.
Recently the matter was placed be-
fore the state printing board, that
board very promptly turning over the
entire matter to the newly consttut-
ed state board of public affairs.
The state board refused to pass on
the matter until the attorney general
had assured it Of its rights in the case;
the reason assigned being that con-
tract was made and work completed
prior to the creation of the board of
affairs.
The attorney generals office replied
to the query to the effect that the
state board of affairs, being created
since the completion Of the work, it de-
volved upon those in authority to pay
the bill. unless there be legal reason
why same should not be accepted.
The board of affairs finally com
promised with the printing house. al
lowing it S2.5OO. which was made
authoritative yesterday.
This little savings of $500 is just
500 more than was allowed the state
board of affairs for its contingent ex-
penses per annum.

Guthrie. Okla. June 4.-Oklahoma's
hotel inspection law. better known as
the "nine-foot sheet law is to be
brought into the limelight again. ac-
cording to the announcement made by
DR.. J. c. Mahr. state commissioner Of
health. who says that a vigorous cam
paign in the way Of hotel inspection is
10 be started at once under the direc-
ton OF his department
While the law has been in effect for
a year. very little inspection work has
beef done. This is partly due to the
contradictory condition which arose,
through careless enrolment of the bill
creating the commissioner OF public
health, or from some other canse. That
bin as II passed the legislature provid-
ed for the appointment of county
health officers by the state commits
sioner of health, while the enrolled
copy contained a provision. which had
in fact been rejected by the legisla-
ture. providing that they should be
appointed by the county commission
ers OF the various counties
The hotel inspection bin made the
county health officers the hotel in
spectors. and in several counties there
we're two health officers, one appointed
by the commissioner OF health and the
other by the county commissioners,
each claiming the right to inspect
hotels and to receive the resulting fee.
The hotel proprietors refused to pay
the fees TO either fearing that they
might have to COME through again if
they did so. and the result was that
the enforcement of the law was practi-
cally tied up.
Now the health commissioner is GO
ing to require every hotel to display
in a prominent place a certificate of
inspection or go after il for violation
Of the law. He announces that re.
ceipt from the hotel inspector that
fees have been paid viii not be suf-
feient. and that the certificate must
be displayed for the benefit of the gen.
eral public The board of health will
require that the public shall be pro.
tected in case Of fire. that sanitary con.
ditions must be good that the building
should be properly screened. and that
each hotel should be thoroughly
iumigated as required by law. as well
as seeing that the sheets are of the
proper length.
One Of the provisions Of the law that
most OF the hotels have been objecting
TO is the one which requires the
maintenance of rope fire escapes in
every room. The law in one section re.
Quires that all hotels over two stories
in height shall be equipped with iron
fire escapes. and little farther on
provides that every hotel which is not
over two stories in height and not pro
vided with fire escapes shall provide
