WHAT CONSTITUTES
SECOND CLASS MATTER
NEW RULING BY ASSISTANT At
ToRNEY GENERAL.
TYNER.
Paper Not Entitled To Second Class
Privileges Because II Contains
Advertising-RuIing Will Affect
Local Periodicals.

/ A decision has been made by James
/ y. Tyner, assistant attorney general
/ for the BostoIliee department. regard
ing seoond-class mail matter which IS
of considerable moment TO number
| of local publications, as it viii take
away from them the reduced postage
rate they were enjoying. Hereafter
papers published by private eduea-
tional institutions will be charged full
rates, as viii also those of benevoleB:
societies. unions and the like which
contain ordinary advertisements.
The decision. however, will not af
feet the status of papers which arc en-
titled to second-class rates on number
of subscribers. The result of this in
depreciation of the section of the law
dealing with publications will he lar
reaching the will not permit advan-
tage TO be taken of the lower rate for
advertising purposes.
Mr.. Tyner's opinion was rendered
January "a and copy of it has just
been received by the local postohice.
The ruling is based on the act of July
l6, 1894. Mr.. Tyner rules that an in
oorporated institution of learning, as
defined in the act, is not one run by
an individual or q joint stock COM
pany. but one which exists for the pub
lie benefit. and thai therefore the for
mer is not entitled TO enter it's publica-
tions aud circulars under the list of
second-class matter. Institutions like
the state universities, however. have
the right. as they exist solely for the
public benefit.
Papers published by historical. liter
airy and scientific organizations will
still be allowed TO go as second-class
matter. provided they do not contain
advertising except what is for the
propagation OF learning in its techni-
cal sense. as distinct from notices of
the sale of school furniture. etc"
This. il is believed. will affect several
local publications of this kind which
have been maintained by money re-
ceived from advertisers. and which
have but few subscribers.
The same rule holds true for the pa
pers of benevolent societies. orders.
trade unions. II they contain adyer-
tising in the interests of persons or
concerns other than the organization
publishing them. they win be denied
the privilege of being entered as sec
ond-class matter.
The effect Of the decision will be far
reaching. but win not touch the ordin-
airy newspaper. There are countless
little publications all over the country
which have been running on their ad-
yertisements and which have had the
privileges of the secondclass rates
They will now have to eliminate all
advertising except such as concerns
the society getting them out. or paw
the fun rates The second-class sched-
ule is cent per pound. while the 9TH
er is ! cent for each two ounces.
