Cuba that tic Washington Government ought
10 make known tn the Insurgents that II means
10 have peace in Cuba on The terms offered by
Spain. and that for the United States TO make
war upon Spain would be n crime against hui
mainly. All OF which is worthy Of consd,ra
ton and to all OF which conclusive answers
are easily to be made.
The United States IS making no menaces
against Spain 7. is sending no ornaments to

Discussing the Loud bill, the Kenne-
bee journal says:
That portion of the bill which excludes
sample copies from the mails is alto.
gether too sweeping. 1t is like cutting
off hand to get rid Of a sore finger. Be
cause this privilege has been abused, in
some instances, Mr.. Loud proposes to
lege. Now this is "a matter of great i'm
portance. The sample copy has always
played very important part in securing
new subscribers. Many publishers,
especially of small weekly papers, make
a practice of keeping their stops on a
special list. The papers left over on each
publication day are sent out to names on
this list. In this way many former sub
soribers are induced to subscribe again.
The Loud bill proposes to stop all this,
for no publisher could afford to maintain
this system when he was obliged to put a
two-cent stamp upon every paper thus
sent out.
The number of sample copies which any
newspaper, especially any weekly coun-
try newspaper, is likely to send out at
any one time is not likely to be large
and the expenses attending it, even at
serious burden to any one of them. The
sample copy taken advantage OF chiefly
by purely advertising sheets whose pro-
prietors do not expect to get subscribers
by the process, but only to extend their
circulation SO they can get higher rates
for their advertising. There is no reason
under the sun why the people of this
country should not be taxed to help
along this business. 1t is no benefit to
them; in many cases it is positively
detrimental to them. We do not believe
any newspaper or literary journal which
are taken by the public because it wants
them would be seriously hurt by the
Loud bill. Papers which are thrust upon
the public simply that their proprietors
may be able to swear to big circulation
and thus get big rates for the advertise
ments of which they are chiefly made up,
undoubtedly would be. All the hue and
cry about sample copies is made by those
papers or In their interest.
