AN OVERDOSE OF INCOMPETENCY

splendid work done by som Monograph machines in the office of an erst-
while government administration" Just why a newspaper should raw about
anything like that mysifes u.s. The monographs produced almost ilgibe
copy. which newspapers were told it Wa their patriotic duty to print The
cost, doubtless. al fully Is high as it would have been for plainly printed
announcements, and the service was less satisfactory. Then, too there were
some other things which we feel a bit delicate about mentioning; but to give
a inkling of what We mean, let us quote som English S she is wrote" Thy

go about it. Here's another mix-up to be incorporated in the lemon-extract

There are a number of recently created offices, boards and commissions" that draw salaries aggregating many thousands of dollars, that do not add one whit to the efficiency of the state govern ment. They are vampires, sucking the life-blood of the taxpayers, and ought to be unceremoniously cut loose from their unholy grasp on the state treasury.
