A REMARKABLE BILL

The congressional postal commission
has framed remarkable bill, under
which all the newspapers and maya
zines of the country would practically
be edited by government officials.
This remarkable bill purports on its
face TO be for the purpose Of classifying
second class matter and its rates of
postage, but In effect IL arbitrarily de-
clares what the newspapers and maya
zines shall print and what they shall
not, what proprtoion OF one thing and
what OF another. So harassing are the
conditions proposed that If the bill
should become law many of the
most popular and successful newspapers
and magazines would be forced either
to sacrifice the essential elements of
their success or go out Of business.
There is in this no exsggeration-
indeed, exaggeration is impossible.
The fundamental idea of the commits
sion's report is that the development,
improvement and expansion of news
papers and other periodicals is repre-
hensible and must be curbed by law.
Almost inendible are the means pro-
posed to check the unhealthy exag-
geration" Of the newspaper
Thus ''No newspaper or part or
section of newspaper or other period
ical must consist wholly or substanti-
ally OF fiction.
This provision would kill several
magazines devoted entirely..to fiction.
1t would bar fiction supplement"
from the Sunday papers.
II is provided that mo newspaper
or part or section of newspaper must
have advertising 10 greater extent
than 80 per cent of it's superficial
area. -
This would not only prevent arrange
ment of advertisements into sections
and prevent newspapers at certain sea-
sons 10 earn the profits which go to
make great journals cheap, but 1t
would strike death blow at the great
dailies Of large circulation, attained
through high class matter purchased
with advertising income.
Again Each part or section of a
newspaper must be Of the same size,
form and weight OF paper : What
this may mean, except that illustrated
supplements may not be printed on
better paper than the hurried main
sheet is one Of the many mysteries of
this remarkable measure.
Supplements must contain no adj
vertisements and must be supplied
only to complete matter left uncom-
plete in the main body Of the publica-
ton.
The publisher IL required daily to
make certain oaths. and in addition
he is also required to furnish under
oath ''such other information with re-
spect TO this publication as the post
master general may by regulations
prescribe.
The newspaper title and date must
appear upon every page of every part

three doubles. The only match saved
to Sank Centre was the single between
Alden of this city and E. Mcneil Of
Alexandria. Three sets were played,
Alden winning the first and last,
Mcneil taking the second. Alden put

winning out by placing and head work.
He was in tip top form and his playing

readers the necessity of "cleanlng up''
the saloons or run the risk of having
them driven into the dark corners of
our large cities. One might as we'll
try to make monk out of the devil as
to make a respectable" saloon be-
cause no matter how upright, moral
and clean the saloon keeper may be,
the whole drift of his business is
downward. Whether the floor is
covered with saw dust or imported
Turkish rugs does not matter except
that of the two the latter is worse
because OF its baneful influence on a
class of young men who would never
be found in the dives.
One of the most useless, unnecessary
murders ever committed in Mime
apolis was in the bar room of leading
hotel at three O'Clock Sunday morn
ing. An all night carousal by a
company of highly respectable"
young men in a highly respectable"
saloon. Result, one of their number
dead, broken hearted mother, a long
penitentiary sentence and a wrecked
life for the one who was convicted of
the murder, and disgrace for all the
participants. Had this eminently
respectable" saloon and all others
been forced to their proper place and
even compelled to obey existing laws
all the sorrow, suffering and humilia-
ton of that unnecessary crime would
probably have been avoided.
There's no such thing as a "re-
spectable' saloon and the more
respectable it seems the more danger
Gus it becomes.
With the saloon a financial drag on
the community instead of benefit,
with the absolute certainty that saloon
lawlessness can be kept down to in
significant proportions if the people
so elect, with the incontestable fact,
proven by a century of crime. sorrow
and suffering as direct result of its
BIZ ueful influence, that there can never
be any such thing as responsibility
within the domain of saloon influence,
what possible excuse is there for any
independent, self respecting COM
munity tolerating them?

TraCk-Laying Begins

Track-laying on the 500 extension
through Stearns county began Monday
morning. The work will be pushed as
rapidly as conditions will admit. The
grade is in good shape as far as Meier's
Grove and the rails will soon be laid to
that point. Further on, however,
especially in the vicinity of Albany,
there are number of heavy fills that
will not be ready for the rails for some
little time.
