! SERIOUS PAPER sITtAT1OX.

For the reason that whatever vitally affects the newspapers affects the public also. it Is of interest to the reader to know that serious problems confront the publishers of the country-one relating to the costs of white paper, the other to it's scarcity. Ninety eight per cent of the news paper of the country ls the product of the news paper trust. which is controlled by the paper trust, which is advancing prices steadily. Practically all of this paper is made of wood pulp, ill the manufacture of which last year, according to q report of the Census Bureau, } 646. .693 cords of pulp wood were consumed. The advancing price of paper is said by the trust to be because of grow ing scarcity of wood pulp timber and to tariff duties which almost forbid it's importation from Cana da. However this may be, the first facts are as stated-paper is high and getting higher, and so scarce that publishers need ire quently to borrow from each oth- CT. sometimes shipments from one to another having to be made by express. Another element of em- barrassment is the inefficient rail- road service which often hangs up indefinitely shipments from the mills which have been ordered in ample time.
 Commenting on the foregoing, the Charlotte Observer very truly says: "It would be uncandid not to say that the papers themselves are in part to blame tor the situa- ton. If the city papers were to cut off 5 per cent of the rubbish they put forth on Sundays, stuff that nobody reads and which is therefore for every reason unnec essary, and if all papers would cut off all except legitimate circulation not sending their issues to non. payers or half-payers or forcing them upon people who dc not want them it all-who. for in stance. having subscribed for } months can never get loose-the volume of production would be lower by a great deal, and one, al least, of the troubles removed one, perhaps. both; for while tie demand for paper would be less the price answering the law oi supply and demand would be low er .,

All kinds of excuses are being offered for calling an extra ses- sion of the Legislature. Things may be in a bad shape, but to have the Legislature on our hands again would be great deal worse.
