Newspaper Rulings.
scME INTERESTING DECISIONS AY UNITEI
sTATES SUPREME C URr AS TO THE
LIABILITY OF SUBSCRIBERS.

1. If subscribers order the discon-
~tinuance of their periodicals, the pub
Usher may con niue to send same until
all arrearages are paid.
2. If subscribers refuse to take
their periodicals from the postofEce to
which they are addressed, they are re-
sponsible until they have settled their
bills and ordered the paper Ter other
periodically discontinued.
3 If subscribers move to other
PAGES without informing the publisher,
and the papers are sent to the former
address, subscribers are responsible
4 The Court has decided that re-
fusing to take periodicals from the
postofice, or removing and having
them uncalled for, is prima facie evi-
dence of intentional fraud.
5. If subscribers pay in advance,
they are bound to give notice at the
end of the time if they do not wish to
continue the periodical; otherwise the
publisher is authorized to continue
sending it and the subscriber is respon-
sible until an cypress notice, with pay
ment of all arrearages, is sent to tine
publisher.
6 The latest postal laws are such
that a. newspaper man a arrest any
one for fraud that takes his paper and
refuses to pay for it. Under the law,
the man who allows his subscription to
run along tor some time unpaid and
then orders it discontinued, or orders
the postmaster to mark it refused and
has a postal card sent notifying the
publisher Of such fact, renders himself
liable to prosecution, arrest and fine,
the same as for theft.

Mississippi's strenuo us Gov
ernor has again made a decided
ass of himself, and heaped humil
iation on the people who reposed
confidence III him. The courte
Gus act of President Francis, OF
the Worlds Fair Commission, in
telegraphing the Governor Of
Mississippi that the President OF
the United States had expressed
great admiration of the States
building at the Fair, demanded
at least a reply in kind. Instead,
it met with a decidedly insulting
retort. This, however, is merely
in keeping with some of Varda
mans utterances during the State
gubernatorial campaign. Il
would seem that he cannot re
Train from injecting the malice Of
his personal, petty i'll feeling into
matters of State moment. For
tunately, there are but few Miss
issippians who endorse his rude
ness and vulgarity.

While there is, of course, con.
siderable divergence of opinion
as to this being the proper time
to take up the matter, there can
be no question but that the early
establishment of a canning fac
tory at Scooba would add great
impetus to the truck growing in
dustry in this section. The man
who grows the truck would grow
more, if he knew there was q
market for that which he could
not ship; he would never hest
tate to plant, it he knew that in
case OF a short crop he could sell
to the local cannery what little
he produced.

encouraging.

ton to at once enter upon the

all requirements.
