A friend writes from southern Idaho
In regard 10 certain remarks Of Thu
paper concerning the undue "thrini.
ueas" Of a postmaster In his section
who, In stopping HE subscription 10 his
local newspaper. wrote in effect that
ina'much a. no had access 10 all the
newspapers In tho post Iflcu II would
be a throwing away OF money 10 pay
II out for subscription. Our c1rtespon.
lent wishes II understood that he n
expressing bis own views merely, and
does not Wish TO be construed a. speak.
ing for tho postmaster. We are very
GLAD Of this, for the only nnswo
he makes 90 the confession ul
the 5nil postmaster o. 90 access
10 newspapers, etc, he that the paper &.
which the surprising letter vas written
II ga radical and hbusive shert"-
which most people Will regard a. no
answer at all. Furthermore, he does
neither the postmaster nor himself
much credit when he tells ~ that W.
"kuow as well "a I that there 10 no
law, neither can there be- any, 10 pre-
vent q postmaster from looking al
newspapers unless they are sent scaled
or at least enclosed In a separate
wrapper" Our contention on Iui-
point was anu I- that the comforts o.
the malls are 7norod, ami that Il Is the
bOunden duty Of every official 20
hasten all mail matter, even de-plsci
newspapers, into the boxes OF hanfs of
those ~ whom Il brlonEs, with the
very least possible delay, Would
our friend msiutaiA that IN IN 'es
where "lhT.itinsss' was not 10 con.

that the postmaster could sit down au.
