NEWSPAPER LAWS.

Any person taking newspaper regularly from
the postoffice whether directed to his name or
another's, is responsible for the payment.
If a person order his paper discontinued he
must pay all arrearages, or the publisher may
and collect the whole amount, whether the paper
u taken from the Office or not.
The courts have decided that refusing to take
newspapers and periodicals from the postoffice,
removing and leaving them uncalled for, is prird
facie evidence of intentional fraud.
Papers may be sent to subscribers until an
express order to discontinue is received, and all
arresrsges are paid as required by law. Merely
returning number Of the paper is not sufficient.
