Madden to Retire.

The boys of the press seem to
have few regrets over the coming
retirement of Assistant Postmaster
General Madden. He has not en-
deared himself to them during his
tenure of office. BY his arbitrary
rulings in numerous cases he has
made himself one of the most
cordially hated men in postal ser.
vice. =
He was of too small calibre for
his place. K
While we are on the subject it
might be we'll to give our readers
an inkling of some of the proposed
revisions of the postal laws regard
ing the mailing of newspapers,
magazines and periodicals.
The postal department., burdened
with seed, congressional reports
and reports of Legislative oratory,
is laboring under deficit from
year to year. To correct this and
show up profit in the department
the press of the country is to be
levied upon for an unjust tribute.
The following is an epitome of
the proposed legislation:
mo newspaper or magazine could
be admitted to the mails at second
class postage rates if the amount of
advertising published therein ex.
ceeded 50 per cent of it's whole bulk
or area.
mo publication could be given
the second-class facilities if it
published supplement printed
on paper other than that of the
main body of the publication or
printed in size differing from the
general size and shape thereof.
mo newspaper entitled to second
class rates could publish as a sup
plement any sheet containing adj
vertisements of any character what
ever.
mo publication could receive
such privileges if its advertising
sheets contained any paper differ
ent in weight or quality from that
used in it's literary or news pages.
"As final climax of paternalism,
no publication could be given the
right to second class entry in which
fiction fills more than half the space
or volume thereof.
"There is substituted for the pres
ent simple method of weighing
| periodical mail matter in bulk and
charging uniform price, a COM
pick schedule of rates foreach CODY
mailed, based on theweight thereof,
the net result of which, besides
vastly increasing the work both of
publishers and postoffice employees,
would be to advance newspaper and
any periodical postage from IS to
100 per cent"
The righteousness of it all is ap-
parent to any reader at all familiar
with the conditions. The results of
such legislation will be disastrous.
"A large number of country news
papers doing business on a very
small profit, if any at all, would 20
out of business. Weekly and
monthly magazines would raise in
price and decrease in number and
volume. The cheaper grade of
magazines would discontinue.
The entire measure is a blow at
the publishing interests of the
country which will be staggering.
The results would be felt in every
home in America and the benefits

consideration OF which was deferred
Indefinitely. II will not be taken up
again until after the holidays.
The strongest supporters OF the
measure practically admitted it's de.
feat by permitting 1t to go over.
The clause OF this bill that has
been the subject of so much attack
is that creating a state board OF
prohibition enforcers. This was
amended by both house and senate.
Representative Fred Branson of
Muskogee proved to be the most
effective enemy OF the measure. In n
heated speech uopn the floor the
house he turned the tide completely
against the bill and won many
over by the oposition.
1t is stated that the governor is
not at all pleased with the post
ponement OF the Billups bill until az
ter the holidays. He had asked the
legislature to rescind its adjournment
resolution for the purpose Of get
ting this measure through, and stood
sponsor for its features. II Is said
that he will refuse to accept "A Law
