NE WSPAPER LAWS.

The following are the laws laid
down by the United States govern
ment for the protection of news
papers:
''1f subscribers order the diseon-
tinuance of their periodicals, the
publisher may continue to send
them until arrearages are paid.
If subscribers move to other
places without informing the pub
fishers, and their paper is sent to
the former place they are held re-
sponsible.
The courts have decided that re.
fuSlng to take periodicals from of
fee before removing and leavin g
them uncalled for is prima facia
evidence of intentional fraud.
If subscribers pay in advance
they are bound 10 give notice to
the publisher at the expiration of
their time if they do not wish to
continue taking it; otherwise the
publisher is authorized to send it
on and subscribers will be respon.
sible until an express order to dis
continue the paper with payment
of all is sent to the publisher.
Publishers of newspapers can
under law, arrest any man for
fraud who takes a newspaper and
refuses 10 pay for it. Under this
law it is a dangerous trick for a
man to allow his subscription &C.

to year and then tell the post

to dash up ladders ring bells, ascend
