The New Postal Regulation

General A. l.. Lswshe, who in
stituted the new regulations
which became effective little
more than a month ago, is in
sistent in declaring that the order

cast over the country merely for
the sake of getting the adver-
tlsements they contain before
the people practically will be
driven out of business. Hun
dreds OF periodicals heretofore
have been published whose SUBJ
scriptlon lists were padded to
the utmost limit. 1t made no
difference TO the publisher wheth
er people paid the subscription
price Of the periodical Or NOT.
The price was purely nominal in
most instances. The advertis-
ers "paid the freight" so they
say, and the government car
RED the fake publications prac.
tically free through the mails.
Now the situation has been
changed. Hereafter, the govern
ment will not haze the mails
burdened with enormous sub
scription lists that are not GEN
ulne or with sample copies of
TINS publication or that which
does not pay its own way through
the mails.
An official OF the postofIi3e de-
parlment who has done some ii.
CURING on the matter, says that
during the month of Jan. nearly
2O,O00,000 less copies of purely
advertising publications were
carried in the mails than were
carried during the month of
Dec, before the new regulations
became effective. Heretofore,
these publications have been
transported by The postofEice de-
partment at pound rates pre-
ciseiy as are real newspapers.
"This constituted an abuse of
the mail privilege" said Mr..
Lawshe, that never was within
the contemplation of congress
when that part of the postal law
was enacted. The sending of vast
amounts of second class matter
through the mails does rot in
crease the revenues of the de-
partment to any great extent,
but it does increale tremendous
ly the expense and trouble. The
sample copy abuse also has been
carried to extreme. 1t is an alb
solute fact that some publishers
rarely if ever take name from
their subscription books after it
has been placed thereon, not
withstanding the fact that the

Com. Carleton On Open

STATE HOUSE CALENDAR.
Next Meeting Of Governor and Council
Friday, Oct. 80, at 10 A. M.

Speaking of the big game season
which opens today Chairman l.. T.
Carleton of the Fish and Game Com
mission said Wednesday: This sea-
son opens under conditions different
than any season. in my remembrance
or any season OF which I find record.
For many weeks now we have had an
extreme drouth which has made the
woods just like finder box ready to
he ignited by a single flash. There is
nothing. however. to prevent the OPEN
ing of the season or keeping the hunt
ers out of the woods, as desirable as it
would be. 1t is a fact though that
the sportsmen who are looking for
big game are not coming into the
State at this time I'm anywhere near
the usual number just on account Of
the dry and warm weather and we
would rather they would not.
"a good rain of few days duration
followed by a few swapping frosty
mornings would stir up the blood Of
the hunter and each train would come
to Maine loaded. as there is no place
in the world the average hunter likes
to get to as he does the Maine woods.
More licenses have been sold to
non-residents for the shooting of game
birds than We're sold last year, but tn"
number of calls for licenses to hunt
after oct. is less. but the smaller de
mand is undoubtedly due to the I'M
Scasonable weather. Last season 3SS
licenses were issued to non-residents
IT, hunt prior to Oct. LIST and 1913 add
tionaI licenses were issued to non-rcsi-
dents to hunt after oct 1st. From
the sale of non resident huntin" Ii
censes there was realized in 1907 the
sum of $30929, every cent of which
has been used or will be used for the
protection of game this year.
CAS- to the amount of game in the
state as compared with other years re-
ports show that in some localities
more are seen and in some other places
fewer deer have been in evidence this
summer than in some seasons.
"Not many deer have been killed dur
ing the summer by the farmers who
have such right when they find deer
actually destroying their crops. Tho
ma iority of farmers living in local
ties where deer are 50 plenty as to in
tcrferc with the growing crops prefer
to have the state pay for the crops
than kill the deer The farmer has an
option on killing the deer or putting in
a claim for his crops damaged but he
can't do both.
"While the season for most parts of
the state open oct. /, the open season
on deer in York Cumberland. Sagada-
hoe. Lincoln. Knox. waldo and k"nnc-
bee counties. is during the month OF
November and only one deer can he
killed in either of these counties dur
ing the open season in each year by
one person In the towns of YORK.

a few things well to remember are that
not more than two deer and onIv one
pun moose can be killed by any one
person In season. There is a fine of
500 for unlawfully killing or trans
porting moose or caribou and a fine of
S4o and costs for unlawfully killing or
transporting deer. Above all be care
ful at what you shoot and be sure YOUR
target Is not a man instead of a moose
or deer"
