Instead of | having it printed on a long sheet four or five feet one way and eighteen inches the other, the secretary has had it compiled in pamphlet form and therefore is entitled to the thanks and | praise of the millions of people who have heretofore been provoked to harsh words and explosive adjectives whenever they have attempted to get information from the long sheet and have tried to follow the line of figures clear across the page.
