NEWSPAPERS OF THE UNITED STATES
N. w. Aver & Sons Newspaper Annu-
al for 1887 is upon onr table. 1t contains
carefully prepared list of newspapers
and periodicals in the United States and
Canada. arranged by States in geograph-
zeal sections. and shows that there are
now 1920 periodicals published in the
United States and Canada, and the total
number of copies of each edition is
80, l65 ,220. We have now about go. 000.-
900 people, and copy of some news
paper or periodical is circulated for every
two people. Nearly Is. 600, 900 copies are
sent out once in seven days by the week
ly pressure copy for about every three
people. The mOnthlies emit an aggre-
gate of over 100000 copies-or one to
every ten people. The dailies are credit
ed with circulation of ZOO, 000-one
copy for nearly every other family.
Ayers Annual is an almost indispensable
adjunct of every newspaper office In the
country, and it is handy thing to have
in a business office. For instance, Thurs
day the writer OF this notice wanted some
information about a county in Georgia
and failed to find it in half a dozen mans
and Biographies he consulted, but turn
ing TO Ayers Annual, received the day

The post-office department has re-
Gently made a new ruing in regard to
what may or may not be written or
printed on packages of third-class
matter, which is of interest to all per-
sons using the mails. The new ruling
decides that upon the wrapper enclos-
ing a package of third-class matter
the sender may write his own name
and address, with the "from" above
and preceding the same, and in the
case Of book, pamphlets, etc., may
make simple marks to designate a
word or passage of the text, to which
it is desired to call attention and he
may place on the cover or blank leaves
of a book, or of any printed matter,
a manuscript dedication or inscrip-
ton that does not partake of the ma
ture of personal correspondence.
The word personal or "to be called
for" or a return request and other di-
rections as to delivery or return, are
deemed part of the address and per-
missible. The business or occupa-
ton of the sender, the names of the
contents of the package, and any
printing not in the nature of an actual
and personal correspondence, may
now be placed on the outer face or
surface of packages of the third class
without suhjecting them to additional
postal charges.

The consolidating of the various rail-
road lines going on of late has not been
looked upon with disfavor by this paper,
because we have fOreSeen possible bene-
fits to the general public growing out of
a comprehensive central management of
large system. Wehave not overlooked
however, the fact that all of this consOl-
idating meant injury to the newspapers,
for when competition is removed one of
the great needs of advertising is gone.
A great monopoly, honestly admins
tered for the PUBLIC good, is a public
benefit by reason of its strength, but it
does not need TO use the newspapers to
advocate the - shortest line, -" the most
miles without stop" - the best equip
ment," its time tables or anything else

but you can't fool all of the people all of

the publishers constant aim has been to
give its readers the most valuable publ
cation in this country. Its unpfecedent-
ed growth shows that it's labOrs have been
appreciated. 1t has won it's immense
popularity purely on its merits, and the

1888 that has never been equaled i'll this

The Midd!ehury Register replies to
the Springfield Republicans attack on
the tariff, which was based on the de-
crease in the number of sheep in Yer
mont, by saying that the value of the
sheep has not lessened. They are
better than formerly, and kept chiefly
for breeding. The farmers found that
they could make more money by rails
ing improved sheep for the western
trade than by keeping flocks for their
wool; hence the change in the methods
of stock raising and the consequent
falling off in the number Of sheep.

STARTLLNG LNFORMATION.

A communication signed Young Re.
publican" is conspiculously printed in
yesterdays issue of the Sun. In it the
idea of a combination commissioner ticket
is combatted, on the ground principally
that the Republicans can Gobble the unan,
imous board if Mey are only disposed to
do it. Our recollection is that the Re.
publicans have always manifested a very
decided disposition to gobble everything
in sight. When they failed in reaching
what they sought it was due to lack of
strength, and not lack of disposition.
The proposition to form q combination
ticket came originally from Republicans,
but it would have proven a very difficult
matter to come to an equitable agreement.
The Democrats now have two members in
the board. In a reorganization on the
proposed basis they would naturally ex-
pect to retain a majority representation.
No other arrangement would be equita-
BILE, but strange to relate even the Repub-
licans who advanced the proposition
COuluu Y oCt IL III iulo lkul- IuG bCuuO-
Gratis are therefore disposed to enter the
contest on the basis of the devil take
the hindmost," and we have no fears of
the result.
The self complacency of the person who
wrote the communication is extraordinary.
He takes the position that absolutely no
Democratic board can successfully manage
the county affairs; when all wool and a
yard WIDE management is needed Re-
publicsns must p~reforce be selected, for
kind nature has checked their system full
of executive ability. How glad "Young
Republican must be that he isn't like
this poor Pharisee." What throes of
nature must endure in producing
a Republican from her crucible, particu-
larly a young and sapient member of the
party. Yet we doubt if this is a circum-
stance to her superhuman exertion when
she tackles the tremendous task of con-
structing a Republican to administer the
affairs Of Laramie county, Wyo. How
carefully she must select the materials and
how delicately apd deity interblend
them, modifying certain Characteristic
and developing others, but never ceasing
in her difficult task until she forces lex
%ecutive ability" to stick out all over the
ineipient commissioner like warts on a
tree.

" MORE OF II,

Even the New York Sun, which has
heretofore given a grudging support to
President Cleveland, is now enthusiastic
in its endorsement of his sturdy way of
graphing with difficulties. The president
must surely have hit the nail exactly on
the head when the Sun breaks forth in
these strains: 1.-THE greatest of all the
sensations that President Cleveland has
brought out is his Canadian retaliation
message. He is the most sensational
president the country has ever had, and
this last one beats all.
''The silver coinage letter to Gen.
Weaver foretelling commercial disaster
and financial explosion, was a great sensa-
ton. So was the civil service letter to
Mr.. Curtis. So was the appointment as
minister to England of L. J. Phelps,
So was the marriage, often denied and
yet at last beautifully consecrated. So
was the tariff smashing messagessof last
December. But now this anti Canadian,
anti British, true blue. North American,
Jacksonian message lays them all out.
1t is great, it is glorious, it is p%atrioticl
Get up some more such sensations as
this Brother Cleveland. The American
people will stand by you. If your hand
gets tired and heavy, they will hold it up,
