Librarian Spoford is quoted as saying that the law did not bar out Gilbert and Sullivan, as aliens, from copyright. They could have laid just claim to residence while preparing to produce the opera of the ''Pi- rates of Penzance."

Save the Rags.

The price of paper has been advanced from
six and one-half to ten cents all over the
country. If this price is maintained, the
public will be compelled to pay more for
their newspapers. Many daily papers have
already increased their price from twenty
cents to thirty cents per week, and weekly
papers from Sl.5O to $500.
The advance In paper can be stopped If
the people will save and sell their old paper
and rags. Three months saving of rags
and the old paper by the entire population,
and selling them in the markets would
check the advance in paper. Rags are
worth three to three and one half cents per
pound.
Every newspaper in the land should ap-
peal TO the people in this matter. And they
should also economies in the consumption
as much as pussibls.
