Newspaper publishers from all over
Canada were at Ottawa last week press
ing upon the government to place news
paper print on the free list. There is at
present a duty Of 20 per cent. on paper
coming into Canada from the United
States. The question was discussed in
the House of Commons, when Mr..
Richardson, NJ. p, proprietor of the
Winnipeg Tribune, charged the Cana
dian manufacturers with holding up
the newspapers to the tune of go and
100 per cent. He asked that the clause
in the customs act to prevent combines
be put in operation. The Canadian
government has the matter under con-
sideration. A few days later American
newspaper publishers had similar
complaint to make to Congress, and
their petition was referred to the COM
mittee on Ways and Means.

gfcss appropriates the money.
This is the closing paragraph OF a
Washington special to the Portland
Press concerning some recent awards

lar with the French spolialion cases
viii hardly look for immediate pay
ment Of these awards. They have been
passed upon year after year, but bills
providing for their payment have been

somewhat absurd to maintain a court

just for a practice game. There were
many brilliant plays on both sides and
many that were not so brilliant. 1t
would look as if the single men intend.
ed to run the married men down by the
number of scores they forced to u in.
At the end of the 9Th inning the mar
ried men called q halt in the game to
catch their breath, and while resting
darkness came on and stopped the game.
Space forbids us giving the score as We
are short On figures. The married men
had a battery that was ali right, butthey
were only visiting here and only went
in out of sympathy for the poor men
with wives. There was considerable

Is 1T RIGHT
For an Editor to Recommend Patent
Medicines p


From Sylvan Valley News, Brevrad, n. C.
1t may be a question whether the edi-
tor Of q newspaper has the right to pub
licly recommend any of the various
medicines which food the market, yet
as a preventive of suffering we feel it a
duty to say a good word for Chamber
lain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy. We have known and used
this medicine in our family for twenty
years and have always found 1t reliable.
In many cases a dose Of this remedy
would save hours Of suffering while a
physician is awaited. We do not be-
lieye in depending implicitly on any
medicine for a cure, but We do believe
that If a bottle Of Chamberlain's Diarr.
hoea Remedy were kept on hand and
administered at the inception Of an at.
tack much suffering might be avoided
and in very many cases the presence Of
a physician would not be required. At
least this has been our experience dur
ing the past twenty years. For sale by
A. j. Jones & Co., druggists.
