Congressman McPKerson's recent
speech advocating the Loud bill was
one of his Enthusiastically original
and strong speeches. The Loud bill
as it now stands strikes at one Of the
great evils Of the country. Some OF
the great publishing houses are bene-
fitted by the existing postal law at the
expense Of the country. These big
publishing houses have been very
anxious to retain the present law as i.
allows them to send many Of their
books through the mail, and they have
made themselves officious is binding
public opinion to the fact that they are
the beneficiaries Of the present law.
Not many weeks have passed this win
ter but We, and We presume most other
country publishers, have received re-
quests from these big publishing houses
to protest against the Loud bill in the
interest OF the country publisher. Their
love for the country publisher has be-
come pathetic. Mcpherson is doing a
public benefit If he helps stamp out
