leather binding, marble edge for the

The work done by the bookbinders on
these special requests is frequently cop

The rooms In the government printery
are marvels of light and GOODNESS. In
some of the upper rooms the impression
Is gained that the work is actually being
done al-fresco. At night long lights that
give a peculiar bluish-white illumination
are turned on and the rooms made as
bright as they are during the day. Among
the employees there is little complaint of
eye trouble, despite the character Of the
work
In the room where the pages of books
to-be are sewed together the work is
done entirely by women. The little ap-
paratus used on some of the tables sug-

The three general authorities of the
printery are the public printer. the dep
uty public printer and the chief clerk.
The first mentioned has general supervi-
sion over everything, appoints the officers
and employees and is the court Of last
resort on questions of management pur-
chase of materials and all other matters
The second is more particularly inter-
eSted IN the management OF the Dulldlng,
including the purchase of all supplies.
To the chief clerk falls the duty of su-
pervising the personnel Of the office.
The only feature Of the printerys work
which is not done in the big building at
North Capitol and H streets is the color
and map work, and the employees are
confidently looking to the time when this
branch of work will also be included in
the routine. Reproductions of photo

must see that everything the congress-

During the tariff debate words crept
into the Record the like Of which had
never been heard of by the laity of
