crs' company. A bill TO renew and
legalizc the privilege was brought in
the house OF commons by Lord North
In 1770, but Lord Erskinc, the great
barristcr most brilliantly exposed the
absurdlty and even indcccucy Of the
publication, ana the bill was defeated.
Although the privilege was thus de-
strOycd. the Stntioucrs purchased their
rival aud continued to hold the field
with but slightly improved style of
publication until 1898. when the SOci-
ETY. For the Diffusion Of Useful KnOwl-
edge published the British Almanac"
and demolished their predecessors,
with the able assistance of the daily
press, which so vigorously assailed the
Stationcrs' publication that that com
pany was constrained to follow the
new example I'm the "Englishman's Al
manac."
The uniform price for an English al
manac for many years was a penny,
but the monopoly increased the price
and the imposition of the stamp taxes
after Queen Anne's time raised it still
more. In 1871 "Moores Almanac" was
nincpcncc, two being for the stamp.
In 1896 ii rose to Is. I'D. and in 1916 to
