PUBLIC PRINTING.
By a reference to the report of the Secretary of State, it will be seen that a deficiency has existed for several years in the appropriations for public printing. The work is done for a fair price, but the cost of what necessarily must be done exceeds somewhat the sums appropriated. In this connection I beg to call your attention to the fact that the law should define with more precision what printing shall be paid for out of the general appropriation.
