OF INTEREST TO SUBSCRIBERS.

In order to protect newspapers against the
careiessness Of a good many wel.intentioned
people and the genuine cussedness Of few
found In every community, the United States
Supreme court holds valid the following pro.
visions OF law:
l. Taking periodical from The postofiice
Is prima facie evidence that the person so tax.
ing 1t is subscriber, unless the periodical is
marked sample copy" or marked copy"
9. Subscribers who do not give express no.
tice to the contrary are considered as wishing
to renew their subscriptions.
3. II subscribers order the disc0ntinuance
OF their periodical, the publisher may continue
to send them until all arrearages are paid.
lfsubscribers neglect or refuse to take
their periodical from the postofHce they are re.
sponsible until they have settled their bills
and ordered the paper discontinued.
5. II subscribers move to other places
without informing the publisher, and the paper
is sent to former address, subscribers are held
responsible
8. Refusing to take periodicals from the
postotfice, or removing, without paying up. Is
prima facia evidence of intentional fraud.

The Civic League Of Ogden is adyocatin

The Civic League Of Ogden Is advocating
some improvements, Just at present it de.
sires the city council to have all poles removed
from the streets, and the billboard and indie.
cent postcard nuisances curtailed. So far as
Logan is concerned, the sale OF rotten post
cards could be dispensed with to no great
harm, but it is our impression that the bill.
boards OF the city hide even more unsightly
vacant lots. AS for the poles in our streets,
these are our pride and Joy and we can not
but feel that sense of appreciation is not
very well developed In Ogden's Civic League.
Three sets OF poles in Logan streets leave some
room for traffic, come in handy when we desire
TO decorate the city, in some instances serve
well as hitchng posts, not nfrequently stop
runaway teams suddenly, and besides being
useful are almost as beautiful in appearance as
the lombardy bean poles we have planted for
shade trees True, seven poles at each busi-
ness corner are some Inconvenience to team.

for draping bunting and festooning electric
lights no better arrangement could be made.

At the close OF q recent case before Judge
Erickson In Logan that parsonage found 1t nee
essary to say that In his Judgment much de.
liberate prevarication had been INDUCED In by
witnesses while on the stand The Judge then
read the riot act as severely as his calm and
temperate disposition would permit and suR.
gested that the proper officials should take
cognizance of the disregard witnesses show for
their oaths. Spectators at various trials in the
past have been convinced that there should be
an occasional conviction for perjury, and Judge
Erckson's expression confirms the correction
Of their conclusions. Witnesses take an oath
that they will tell the truth, the whole truth
and nothing but the truth, but too many re-
gard that oath as mere form and not intend
ed to apply. There is little hope for country
when its people fail to regard the sacredness OF
their word of honor and to teach regard for
the lawful oath ought to be one of the first du.
ties Of officials. An occasional conviction for
perjury would bring derelicts to realization
OF the meaning OF an oath and II we are
not mistaken some witness In Logan
court will be picked up yet and made an exam
pie Of The community will sustain such &C.
tion though the victim should happen to be
one OF the editors In Logan.

WILL KEEP THE FAITH.

The expressed determination Of the Presi.
dent to give Cuba liberty not later than Feb
lst, 1908, indicates that the republican
party proposes to keep faith with the Cubans
and its promises to our own people, and it also
recalls the old democratic yelp about repub.
lican tendency toward imperialism. Force Of
circumstances made IL advisable for the United
States to assume the government Of Cuba and
the Philippines until such time as the people
Of these islands have learned to govern them
selves, and the constant assurance OF the men

dom Mr.. Bryan and democratic orators talk

without the consent Of the governed. They
accused the republican party Of bad faith in
extending protectorate over Cuba and the
Philippines and denounced the governments

paign was vicious one on the part OF the dem
ocratic party but the people of this country
refused TO be alarmed and expressed their con-
