NEwspApER POSTAGE

The law requiring publishers OF newspa-
pers 10 prepay the postage on papers sent to
regular subscribers had its origin in petty
spite. The press of the whole country had
criticised with severity the salary grab and
the abuse by members of Congress of the
ranking privilege. Public opinion forced
Congress to repeal the law which burdened
the mails with public documents, and in
making the change the newspapers which
had exposed the abuses of the Thanking
privilege were required to pay postage on
their exchange list and every paper sent to
regular subscribers. This has worked great
hardship to newspaper publishers. They did
not increase the price of the paper TO cor
respond with the amount of postage which
they were required to prepay, and the conse-
quence has been heavy drain upon the news
papers, tax which the regular subscribers
had heretofore paid without complaint. We
are gratifsd to see that Mr.. Townshend, of
Illinois, has introduced bill in Congress to
abolish postage on newspapers. This bill
hss been inspired by Postm sster- General
Howe, who has recommended Congress to
abolish postage on newspapers. The bill
introduced by Mr.. Townshend, it is said, has
been prepared at the suggestion and under
the supervision of the postm Aster-general.
The present law, requiring the postage to be
prepaid on newspapers, and which was in
spired by petty spite, is regarded as uncon-
stitutional ASH grants exclusive privileges by
making isarimination in favor of locali-
ties Newspapers are now allowed to be
carried by the mails free of postage in the
county in which they are published. The
postm master general condemns this discrimi-
nation, and urges Congress to abolish post
age on newspapers, and Mr.. Townshend has
introduced bill for that purpose. 1t is
needless to recount the arguments in favor
If thN proposition. 1t is enough to show
that the postage charged on newspapers
mailed TO Subscribers is tax on the dissent
nation of information, and ought to be abol-
ished, when the theory of our government is
remembered, that good citizens can only
be made by making the people intelligent.
There are assurances given that Mr..
Townshend's bill will be acted on
promptly by Congress, and the
assurance is given that it will be favorably
considered if the newspapers bestir them
selves to express their opinion in regard to
the measure and urge its adoption. There is
a disposition among the Eastern papers, es-
pecially the city papers, for some inscrutable
reason, to oppose the bill. All the papers in
the West, and the whole country for the
matter of that, outside Ct New York city,
perhaps are in favor of the proposition, and
their combined influence speedily exerted can
secure the passage of the bill.

SHOWING THE QUEER
A Big Counterfeiting Scheme Unearthed
at kirwin, Ks.-SensatiOBal De-
VelOpments in the
D0yle-Brockway Casa Nan Shot Dead
by His Wife-MOses Gets Six Months
A PiOus Fraud.

MANCHESTER, \. H, June 6.-There is
no individual more justly held in contempt
when he is found out-than the sancti-
monious alleged pious fraud who make his
assumed holiness a cloak under which he
can the better cheat his fellow-men. OF all
individuals, too, he has the most unlimited
quantity of that commodity variously
known az "cheek" and "brass' and "gall."
An illustration of this ia given in the case
of Willis A. Shaw, clerk for a furnishing
goods house in this city. He "was implicitly
trusted, was Jealous church member, and
an active worker for the Young Mems Chris
tian Association" He was recently
detected in stealing from his en-
ployers, and then confessed that he had
been pilfsring for the past seven years, and
that the total amount was many thousands
of dollsrs. His zeal in religious work won
for him the offer of the general secretary
ship Of the Young Mems Christian Associa-
ton at Coucsrd, n. H., with salary of
1920 year. He evidently did not think
that his repeated attractions of the eighth
commandment incapacitated him for doing
association work, for he proposed to his en-
ployers to take the position in Concord, and
from his salary TO pay the stealings. Impu-
dence could not go much further.
