A number Of lethargic local papers
which do not make premium oilers
have attacked the more lively ones
that are doing so, claiming that they
are acting contrary to the u s. postal
regulations. There is no regulation
or rule of any department which stops
a paper or person from making any
gift desired. What the postal auth
critics have ruled against is the lot
terry and rafting schemes which have
been SO common, and the Herald is
heartily in accord with such ruling.
But some papers fail to see the differ
ence-hence their wall against the
gift enterprise.

Judge Pollock the federal bench. Mr.. Scott writes
from Washington to his paper, the lola Register that

Now, Congressman Scott may his wonderment II
he will only pause to reflect what kind of man the

put up on plan Of Theodore Roosevelt could stand
If the delegation aggreyed by the choice OF the
president has nobody thank but the Pharsees who
