EXPRESS COMPANIES.

OF all the voracious, rapacious,
blood-extorting trusts organized for
the purpose of holding up humanity
by the throat and plundering it the
express companies easily take the
cake. With practically no capital
required to operate them, with stock
which squeezed of water would prac-
tically stand at nil, by queer methods
almost entirely esading license and
taxes in both States and municipali-
ties, this defiant trust has blandly
portioned out the earth among it's
members, contemptuously spat upon
the laws OF the United States requ:r-
ing them to pay war taxes and turned
the thumbscrows on an already over
burdened and trust oppressedpeople.

stock in the nnreasoning cutlery
against corporations because much
CT it is grorndless, but the imperious
:nsolence with which the express
trust lords it over individuals and
States is a matter to which every
self-respecting American should de-
mend that summary halt be called.

DEWEY.

Some of the Democratic papers
are in favor of making Admiral Dew
ey the Democratic nominee for Pres
ident in 1900. The Banner, general
ly speaking, is not in favor of elect
ing military men to the highest Office
in the gift of the whole people, but
we would make an exception in this
instance, and would be glad to have
the gallant hero of Manila honored
with the Democratic nomination for
President of the United States
Dewey may not be what is now called
"statesman," but he is q man of
promptness, frmness, breadth of
thought, great executive ability, and
the courage Of lis convictions y
and his administration CT national
affairs would be G wonderful improve
ment on the ''bread and butter pol
itics of McKinleyism. One thing is
evident. If George Dewey should
be elected President of the United
States he would wear no mans collar.
In fact, Admiral Georges neck isn't
built so that he cen wear any mans
collar but his own.

THE FIRST NE WSPAPERS.

The first newspaper in America
was printed in Boston on September
25th, 1890, by Richard Pierce, for
Benjamin Harris. 1t was printed on
letter-sheet paper, one side being
blank. There evidently was not
enough news to fill the other page.
Among other things in his salutatory
editor Harris said that the paper
would endeavor to stop the ''spread-
ing Of false reports and lying" Tie
Colonial government suppressed the
paper before another could be issued.
Its name was "Publick Occurrences"
The next paper was also printed at
Boston. It was named the Boston
Newsletter, issued on April Oath,
l704. Bartholomew Green, printer !;
John Campbell, editor. In l719 the
Gazette appeared, and in the same
year the American Mercury was
issued in Philadelphia-the first
paper in that city. In 172l James
Franklin started the Courant in Bos-
ton He was succeeded by his
nephew Benjamin Franklin. Itlasted
five years, being too independent. In
1928 Benjamin Franklin acquired
from VIM. Keimer the Pennsylvania
Gazette, the second paper in Phila-
delphia. The first, the Mercury, was
printed by Andrew Bradford. Har-
ris' "Publick Occurrences" at Bos-
ton, was the tenth newspaper in the
world. Campbell, of tho Boston
Newsletter, was also postmaster,
and a son of Duncan Campbell, the
organizer of the postal system of
America. Bartholomew Green was
a brother of Samuel Green, who
printed the first bible in America,
and it was in the Indian language.
The Gazette appeared in New York
in 1725, a Gazette in Annapolis, Nd,
in 1927; o Gazette in Charleston,
S. c., in 1881; and Gazette in Will
iamsburg, Va. in 1876, VIM. Burks,
editor; VIM. Hunter, printer. The
North Carolina Gazette appeared at
Newborn in 1755. The first paper in
Georgia was the Gazette, at Savan-
nab, in 1763. The Gazette was
printed in Knoxville, Tenn, in 1893,
by a printer named Roulstone. The
first paper in Kentucky was printed
at Lexington, in 17s6, by John Brad
ford. The first daily in the United
States was the Philadelphia Adyer-
ltiser, 1854.
The fifth newspaper in The world
was issued in London, England, in
1922. The earliest sheet known is
dated May 23d, 1922. 1t was entitled
the Weekly News. Nathaniel Buffers
was editor, with the following named
assistants: Nicholas Bourne, Thos.
Archer, Nathaniel Newbury, William
Shefard, Bartholomew Downes and
Edward Aide. The paper was not
successful. It is not known how long
it lasted. This was the first news
paper in England.
