NEWSPAPER LAWS We give the fol-
lowing information relative TO newspaper
subscribers, which We deem it very lm-
portant should be undcrstood:-
Posimasters are required to give notice
5y letter when subscriber docs not take
his paper from the Office, and give the
reasons for its not being taken. Neglect
ing to do so makes the postmaster respon-
siblc TO the publisher for the payment
Any person who takes paper regularly
from the post office, whether he has sub
scribed or not is responsible for the sub
scription.
A person orlcring his paper discontin-
ued must pay all arrearages, or the pub
Usher may continue to send 1t until pay
ment is made, and collect the whole
amount, whether it is taken from the
oIlicc or not.
The courts have decided that refusing
to take newspapers and periodicals from
the post office, is prTnd tdcle evidence OF
intentional fraud.
Postmasters throughout the country
will save trouble by obeying the laws IN
regard to newspapers, &c. When paper
remains dead in the office for four con'ec-
utve weeks, it is the duty of the post
master, or his deputy, to send the publish
ers OF the paper Il written notice of the
fact-stating, if possible, the reason why
the paper Is not lifted. The sending to
the publishers of paper marked ''not
lifted" ''refused,' or ''uncalled for" is
not legal notice. Postmasters who fail
to comply with the law in this respect,
are EaJle for tie subscription for the time
said paper remains dead IN their Offices.
