A nay vote and tho minority was
tiged to submit to tho will of the
ijorlty, at least for tho tlmo boing.
One of the principal causes of dls-

renuously on tho ground that tho
nmlttee overstepped its authority.

appropriation of ?101,000, which
(thought by somo to be in excess

Those developments, which are
brought out by practical printers
who have worked in the state print-
cry for yonrs and are familiar with
ovory little detail of the business,
bring up tho question of what amount
of monoy Is actually needed to pay
the oxponses of having tho stnte
printing dono for tho blonnlal porlod,
and, sinco conditions nro changing
with tho ndvont of each succeeding
year with n consequent gradual In
crease of the cost of operation there
arc no figures upon which anything
like nn nccurato ostlmato can bo
based. Tho secretary of state is the
auditor of the accounts and oxponseB
ot tho state printing ofneo, nnd his
report to tho coming loglslatlvo ses
sion will state that it is n practicable
impossibility to orrlvo nt any nc
curato ostlmato of the probable cost
of public printing for the ensuing two
yoars.

for the two years 1903-04, ?GC,000,
and for the Inst two years from
January 1. 190b to ueeamiior .-

about $84,000. For the period 1'JUJ

There are sevnrai fuo rnn i...

cost of prlntiiiR, paper and binding
during the past six years, and prln
clpal among these are cited the large
number of Initiative measures, au
thorized under the Initiative and
Referendum clause of tho constltu
tlon; the printing nnd binding of tho
direct prlmnry nominating law nnd
the double oxponso of printing duo
to this law which requires supplies

uoard of health blanks; all of tho
mnterlals for tho state library com
mission, and tho oxtravneanco of tho
last loglalaturo, which Incurred a
greater exponRO for printing than
any previous sosslon. There was nn
additional cost of $1000 during tho
pnst two yonrs for nrlntlnc blanks.
etc., for tho suporlutomlent of public
Instruction; tho cost of printing nnd
binding the assessment rolls for tho

Neither It Is possible to draw a
comparison in the oost of public
printing with thnt of other states
for tho reason that tho latter do not
furnish the counties with assessment
rolls, have no direct prlmnry lnws to
contend with nor Initiative lnoasuroa
to print nnd bind. The cost of paper
nlso, owing to the stonily Increase of
consumption ovor tho supply, Is grnd
ually lncronslng overy year nnd, al
together, It would bo an oxtromely
difficult mnttor to arrive nt conclu

two yonrs with any dogroo of accu

In that no explicit Interpretation of X

of the state Institutions are obliged

It Is ars"l, If ty W9r" lfnmtu
