MUST PAY FOR NEWSPAPERS

The latest postal laws are tina,
the publisher can arrest anyone fo,
fraud who takes paper and re-
fuses to pay for it. Under the law
the man who let's his subscription
run along for sometime unpaid and
then orders it discontinued leaves
himself liable to arrest and fine
the same as for theft. 1t will be
seen that many disputed points
are disposed of by these decisions
which are certainly only just. If a
subscriber does not want to renew
his subscription, let him notify the
publisher. The second decision
given here will be a surprise te
some publishers who believe they
must stop delinquent subscriber
if ordered to. The delinquent
must pay if he wishes to discontin,
ne his subscription. Otherwise he
is held responsible for it as long as
the paper is being sent to him,
whether he takes it from the post
office or neutrality-suspicious..

THE epidemic OF scarlet fever is
prevalent generally in several
North Idaho towns. BY good
fortune the disease has not APP
peared in Rathdrum, as yet. But
there is no telling when it might
break out, and too great care
cannot be taken to prevent a
visitation of the dread scourge,
which il no respector OF age or
conditions. Remember that
cleanliness on the part OF the
village as web as the individuals
and constant vigilance OF sani-
tatisn, the laws of health and
care Of surroundings are the
surest safeguard against scarlet
fever, as wei as all other infect
ions or contagious diseases.

 Tn close however. WIS barely steady at a net deeline of 4di5 yoints. The most immediate feature in the future weakness was the show Ing made by the Liverpol market. At the time ot the New York opening the English market vas 3a6 points lower while spot cotton was z points lower. The foreign weakness accord Ing to private tables was due to fears re-
 garding New England strike prospects. and the iabor situation was also a factor in determin- ing local sentiment Another influence in the decline was the larger port receipts, which for the day were 28.3 bales against i704 bales last year. while the estimates for re- ceipts at leading ports tomorrow were heavy. particularly for New Orleans. where l3. 500 bales are expected against 2.994 last year. The estimates for Galveston and Houston were less depressing. but the weather news was averaged up favorable to farm work and Liverpool showed continued weakness closing 6hm8h points net lower. Exports for the day were heavy anl at the lower level of the day this encouraged profit taking by the shorts. Total sales futures estimated at So.oOO bales.

 NEW YORK, March 3o-Cotton futures in the local market today opened weak in tone with first prices at decline of 3GS points. The business became more active the day wore and there was a further reduction in weakness. The new crop positions sup ported in good fashion. though they were far from active. The weakness In the main attributable to depressing news both of a public and private nature, Liverpoors decline was said to be due chiefly to the fear that the strike situation in the country be- coming serious. and that spread was thought to be imminent. The movement of cotton in this country another factor against the market. The port receipts figured at 60 0o0 against | 700 last year. while the amount of cotton to be brought into sight during the week was figured at 36 900, against 89, 900 last year The Houston estimate the other hand was smaller than expected and this had especially since the weather m some sections of the belt regarded quite unfavorable There was some support on the lower levels. but there was but little really aggressive buy ing during the day. and sentiment for the most part was mived, reiecting uncertainty on the bear side as well as on the bull side of the account. The trade a whole was far from active there being many erstwhile active interests inclined to wait on development along the line of strike talk. The spot markets were dull with a limited demand from exporters and spinners, hu tholders fin the South were stubborn and held prices relatively firm. The portions At the close the market was rather unsettled, with some attention paid to the so-called bull syndicate working under the leadership of Sully.
