PAYSUBSCRIPTION
Ruling of Post Office Depart
ment Relative to Subscrib-
ers to Papers.

In the past it has been custom
airy for newspaper men to be
confronted with a plea from
back subscribers to the effect
that Il never subscribed to your
paper, hence | do not feel like
paying for it, although they
had been reading the paper for
years, and other forms ofexcuses.
These excuses will no longer ans
wer as the post office department
is out with a new ruling that is
binding and gives the editor pro-
lection from a class that will
read a paper for years and then
refuse to pay. for it. The new
rules are as follows.
/. Subscribers who do not
give express notice to the con-
trary are considered as wishing
to renew their subscriptions
2. If subscribers order the dis
continuance of their periodicals
the publishers may continue to
send until all arrears are paid.
3, If subscribers neglect or re-
fuse to take their periodicals
from the post Office they are re-
sponsible until after they have
settled their bills and ordered
their paper discontinued.

 The campaign of the future 1t may be believed, will be far shorter It will be confined too, more largely to the newspapers. Canada has just held an election which has been quite as in- tense in its way as the present cam paign on this side of the border-line. Yet Canadas campaign has been a matter of little more than three weeks in comparison with ours of four months or so, and yet the result will prove quite as satisfactory and logical The great increase in the proportion of ltcrates and newspaper readers has made the newspaper a factor it could not te ! guar ar of cntuty ago. Then, too, a far greater proportion of our newspapers are independent In politics now and all of them devote col-

THE sourH AND THE RIDERS.

A correspondent Aas written q let ter to the New York Tribune in which he says he believes the seycrcst blow which could be given the south has come with the wide publicity accorded the recent night rider outbreaks In Tennessee. All must admit that the trouble is of a most serious nature.
 But let it also be added In all justice to the governor of the state and ta such of it's other officials as have been concerned in the matter. that they have shown praiseworthy activity in following mp the guilty parties and
 bringing them to justice to the best
 of their ability. Quite as much pub licity indeed has been given to the fact, too, and how the incident should now result in keeping new industrial capital anu brains from selecting the south for a location Is not at all ap- parent.
 Gt was not many months ago that the north was the scene of as serious and revoltinR an outbreak In Spring field, IT.. as the country has cxper- fenced That event was given world wide publicity. II is not to he sup posed, however. that the whole north
 was disparagod in the mXds of any as q result, There are plenty of noble
 and brave men in the south, as in the north, men who are ready and willing to devote their every energy to mak-
 ing their section of the country bet
 ter and more inviting Every one real i2es that The publicity given the Springfield riots simply enthused the north the more toward preventing a recurrence of such an outbreak The same result should, and it may be be- leved if will, result from the unusual publicity now being accorded the night rider incident in Tennessee. The north Is perfectly well aware, in spite
 of the Tribune correspondents appar-
 ent fear that if Is not, that, as he says,
 "There are strong men In Dixie who are coping splendIdly with their great

\ Snare of thp Enemy,

Some of the political opponents of Judge Robertson, and some of his weak kneed friends, have suggested that he shall resign his directorship in the New York, New Haven and Hart ford road and perhaps in other corpora tions--for political expediency
 We are satisfied that there Is noth- ing to be gained by that course, and that on the contrary 1t would be re- ceived as a mark of weakness. II would change nothing in the situation, except In name If he cannot act honestly for the public interest because he is a director he cannot while he is stockholder. The strong point in his candidacy is that he is man of such character that no one who knows him doubts that in office he would place the public good before his private advan tage. He has the temperament and the training which make that necessity for him, II Is a point of honor, ana in such matters that is the hest guar. antee of all.

The Fleet In Hmm.

CLetter to Boston Transcript)
 Japan has spoken and the word has gone around the world Her answer should emphatically silence all the Hobsons on both sides of the Pacific, They have all failed to pick quarrel with Japan and all such men of every nationality should henceforth De drowned upon by every lover of peace. Hereafter their words must have little weight for not in all history has there been more emphatic demonstration Of the friendship of one nation for an other than Japan has now given us It Is worth the sending of our sips to the Pacific. If that was necessary to invite or Insure the demonstrations but 1 am wondering If IL would have made any difference whatever whether one or one hundred battleships went. IL was not that our national greeting was borne by battleships. II was not fear that brought forth this demonstration from Japan. This outburt of feeling could come only from a nation that loved peace better than war, that loved America. and was not secklng oppor- tnnIty to pick a quarrel

FUTURE POLITICAL CAMPAIGNS.

Attention has been called in many quarters to the severe and almost ln- human campaigning demands which have been made this fall upon Mir. Taft and MT. Bryan as the two rival presidential candidates And yet what Is true of them is true this year in scarcely a loss extent of state and local candidates all over the country. Time was when it was considered quite as undenined for a candidate 10 take to the stump as 1t is today with some of our lawyers "of the old school D so-called, to engage themselves In any remuneratlve occu- patton Ion the side other than the law. Gradually there came the period of the front-porch campaign and of occasional stump speeches. The limit of the latter tendency has now been reached. No more can be demanded of the human machine" than is now de- manded of candidates for public office LA decided change must be looked for, if for no other reasons than that neces- sary expenses be saved and that our public men, who are of great worth to us, do not endanger their future use- fitness by undermining their health by such practices
 On Tuesday of this week Indiana did honor to Benjamin Harrison by erect ing a monument to his memory in q public square in the city of Indlanapo- lis. Tt was an oft-expressed prophecy made by the man who defeated Grover Cleveland for the presidency in 1888 that the time would come when nation al conventions of all parties would be attended by those only who had actual business at them, that upon nomina- ton, candidates would remain quietly at home, whence they would send out their letters of acceptance, containing whatever views and pledges they deam- led necessary; and that these letters, together with the platforms of the sev- eral parties, would form the basis of whatever public discussion and con- troversy there should be-

DO the members of the Connecticut Pharmaceutical Association of Con- necticut approve of the intlmidatory circular, gotten out by their executive officers without their approval, in be- half of the candidacy of George l.. Lilley? Is their reputable association to be used without protest for the pur- pose of bulldozlng store clerks, who are subject to examination by the pharmaceutical commission before re- ceiying a license to ply their trade Finally is there a bargain between the officers of the association, who may aspire to be commissioners, and the man who seeks to enjoy the appoint ing power as governor? These are practical questions, which druggists should answer.

GEORGE <. PALMER,

We printed in yesterdays Issue of The Journal-Couier a faithful like ness of George S. Palmer of New Lon- don, who has been prominent in the increasing anti-Lilley revolt We did so that the readers of this newspaper could judge for themselves of the likelihood of such a man, who looks one squarely in the eyes, devoting his time and energies in a political cause for other than unseflsh and patriotic purposes.

 Whatever the outcome of the polit- ical struggle, which Is now drawing to close, the service which Mir. Palmer and his associates have done the state of Connecticut will not be forgotten in a full generation They nave made the continuation of a ma chine policy, which nas selected can didates for office two years in ad- vance and without the consent of tht party members, and which nas repu. diated efficient public officials becaus, they were in the way of the machine. prosperity. They have by simpl! showing their colors carried hope ant confidence to thousands of Connect. cut citizens, who had begun to despair of seeing the electorate lifted from tnc condition of servitudc into which I has been plunged by selfish ring dom inatIon.
 The work of these gentlemen, under the tlreless leadership of Mir Palmer nas not been provoked hy fondnes! for mugwump knocking It has beer stimulated by love of state anu z profound belief in it's future if one, wrested from the grasp of men, whC have used 1t for low political pur poses.
