Loss of $3000 on Whole Job En tailed He Saj-9 in Printing of Codes at 75 Cents a Copy. SALEM, .Or, Oct 22. (Special.) Showing that the state printing fund is being "padded" by numerous extrane ous liabilities which appear against the State Printing Office, that the amount nctuallv exDended by the State Printer is exceedingly small compared to the charges that are made against nis xuna by numerous other offices of the state, State Printer Dunlway h. forwarded to Governor West a statement pointing out the conditions that exist and the expenses in the office. Such charges as for a rapid address In machine used to send out pam phlets to the voters, charges for check ing initiative petitions, charges for rul ing and binding and for various other essentials, are placed against the state printing fund wnen mey ao noi ciui ly represent printing charges, accord ing to Mr. Dunlway's statement, which in part is as follows: Examination of the record in the auditor's office shows that from the first Item. 100,000, from January 1. 1911. until Oc tober l. 1912. bnt S81:78.T0 mmM paid me for printing. 118,853.47 of which was for the five otflcere named by you In contrast with the "state printing office." After standing my $3000 loss. In 1910. on the codes. It Is embarrassing to have the insufficient sum paid me for the work car ried into 1911 as a deficiency and used tu well the total. 1 am sure you must have done this by merely taking some one's fig ures from the 'face of the record," without looking Into the matter. In view of the facts, I think you will readily concede that It Is embarrassing to the State Printer for the Governor of Ore gon to have given out the statement fur nished the press on October 1 as to large amounts alleged to have been absorbed b the "state printing office" when there Is no state printing office," but a private plant provided by the State Printer In compliance with Oregon law. - Further, It Is embarrassing to have yoo assume, in paragraph eight of your letter, that there will be a deficiency of $25,00u for 1911 and 1913 when of (100,000 appro priated on the face of the record, to cover the many things charged to "printing." there had been expended np to September SO. 1912. the sum of S75.248.73 for all purposes (In cluding paper, .binding, ruling, election sup plies, clerk hire and postage for mailing pamphlets to registered voters, and a va riety of other Items besides printing), leav ing (24.754.27. or about one-fourth the ap propriation for the remainder of the term So there Is small prospect of any consider able deficiency, and no estimate of that character can be otherwise than unjust It accredited to the state printing office. The Governor's statement in part fol lows: The following statement is offered for the purpose of advising the public as to the appropriations made by the last session of the Legislature and the cost of printing and binding from Jan uary 1, 1911, to October 1, 1912.

Of the amount expended $13,130.25 appears to have been Air. Duni way's share for printing done. While it appears that the general printing fund will likely be consumed by the needs of the department, ad vice received from Mr. Dunlway leads Us to believe that no deficiency will be Incurred during the biennial period 1911-12. - If this is true the total cost for the years 1911-1912 will b as follows: ' ' Amount.

The Items labeled under disbursements of 1911-1912. amounting to $22,721.24, for completion of the code, and $15,748.87 as a deficiency appropriation. Mr. Dun (way says' properly come under 1909 and 1910 and should be eliminated from the statement for the past two years. Further, he says, a, radical Injustice Is done in the balancing and totaling of this entire set of figures, saying that the figures under the heading "total should be eliminated altogether and that under the heading "balance" the figures should be labeled "balance un expended." "The codes were printed for less than TE cents a copy. I received $11,211.76 for the Job and suffered a loss of over $3000 on It. At the present time w are resetting five forms of the code to make up for losses which occurred out side of this shop, such as In binding and other spoilage, and the entire loss is falling upon the State Printer," said Mr. Dunlway. REPORTER SEEKS REDRESS Klamath Falls News-writer Accuses Mayor, Chief and Patrolmen. KLAMATH FALLS, Or., Oct. 22. (Special.) At the Council meeting last night R. Vance Hutchlns, the reporter who was pummeled by Policeman Hall, October 9. filed a complaint charging Mayor Nicholas, Chief of Police Smith, Patrolmen Hall and Greenwood with malfeasance In office in conneotlon with that affray. A motion to suspend the policemen was declared out of onfer by the May or, who said the men must have a chance to be heard, and that as he was himself covered by the same com plaint he could not preside. The Presi dent of the Council being absent, a mo tion to compel his attendance was de clared out of order for the same rea son. The complaint was then amended by Mr. Hutchlns by striking out the name of the Mayor. The motion to suspend the polloe force was then received. .The Mayor declared he would not entertain a mo tion which would leave the city with out police protection: that he did not have in mind any men to appoint in their place, but that if the complaint was made specific and was sworn to 'and a time set for a hearing, which would give the accused men an oppor tunity to present witnesses, he should not stand In the way.' The motion was then amended and carried to have such hearing Monday night, October 28. The City Hall was Well filled with interested spectators, and the great majority of these seemed well pleased with the outcome. It was evident that the majority of the Councilmen had come prepared to carry out the motion to suspend the police force. In Japan about four million tons of her rings are caucbt every year. This enormous quantity Is not by sny means entirely used- up ror numan consumption, in iact. aDout foUrnftbs of the entire quantity is used as organic fertiliser for the rice fields. Lack-of-Veracity " Club Membership Grows as Result of Verbal Tilt s of Campbell and Smith. SALEM, Or., Oct. 22. (Special.) Representative Hawley has returned from a trip through Jackson and Jo sephine counties, where he went after delivering the principal address at the annual reunion of the Lane County Veterans' Association at Eugene.-. It had been reported that Jackson and Josephine counties would not poll so large a vote for the Congressman as usual. Mr. Hawley led all candidates, whether opposed or not, in the pri maries last April. Congressman Haw ley returned much elated over the prospect In Southern Oregon, for. while In Ashland. Medford and Grants Pass, he found that he would not only poll .his usual vote among the members of his own party, but many persons af filiated with other parties came to him and expressed their Intention of not only voting for him, but work ing for his election,, stating that his course at all times had been In the Interest of all the people and not a aelect few. The Ashland Record has stated that John W. Campbell asserted R. G. Smith Y. M. C. A. SECRETARY CLIXES CALL TO VICTORIA fry ' -i - 1 M-MeMilisar'ii - ri e -4 Jf. W. Palmer. In order to continue his work as boys' secretary of the Port land Young Men' Christian As sociation, J. W. Palmer ; last night declined a call to be come general secretary of the Y. M. C. A. at Vlotoria, B. C. The opening was considered an unusually good one, as the Vic toria association has about 1000 members and the salary paid Is almost twice that of the posi tion filled by Mr. Palmer in Portland. Mr. Palmer, however, has been having excellent suo 'cess In conducting the boys' department of the Portland as sociation and he considers the work here too promising, to leave. S. R. Sayre, traveling representative of the Y. M. C. A. In Western Canada, came to Portland to make the offer to Mr. Palmer. The latter has been engaged 'In Y. M. C A. work Just three years, all of that time with the 1 Portland association. was not In the race for Congress, but Smith comes back at. Campbell with a statement that comes close to adding another member to the famous lack-of-veraclty club. In Southern Oregon neither of them is considered very much in the race, as Campbell, has been in Oregon about two years only, and has divulged no plans for the ben efit of the state, is without a platform, except that he desires the position, while Smith, it is said, has troubles other than those of a political nature, which has been making hundreds of Democratic votes for Congressman Hawley. ' Mr. Hawley will pass 'Wednesday In Astoria and Clatsop County, Wednes day night in Clatskanle, part of Thurs day at Rainier and Thursday night at St. Helens. Friday he will be at Hllls boro and Saturday all day at Forest Grove and other Washington County points. Monday, October 28, he will be in McMlnnvllle until 8:32 in the afternoon and pass that night at New berg. The following day he will visit Dallas, Monmouth and Independence In the evening. HEARING ON HERE TODAY Chairman Prouty, of Interstate Com mission, Asks Co-operation. . SALEM, Or, Oct. 22. (Special.) Urging co-operation on the part of the State Railroad Commission, Chairman Prouty, of the Interstate Commerce Commission, has written In regard to the hearing which will be held in Port land before the examiner for the Inter state Commerce Commissioner tomor row. The hearing will be as to the prac ha, rt -rallrnfldn in the) welerhinsr of both' carload and less than carload freight. "Complaints from many quarters and from several branches of industry lead us - to think that the weights upon which transportation charges are assessed at the ' present time are in .many cases wrong and that improper charges and serious dls- crimlnation result," writes Chairman Prouty. "This commission desires In the first place to ascertain the facts, and. In the second place, te provide If possible, some remedy tor wnatso ever wrong may be developed. Since this Is a matter In which the state ind Federal authorities are alike In terested, inasmuch as the weighing of state and Interstate shipments are usually by the same methods and upon the same scales, we would be glad o co-operation of the several state com missions in the conduct of this In vestlgatlon."
