THE MAGAZINE CASE

The MAGAZINE proprietors of the
country are sweating blood. In years
past they have increased their size
prodigiously with purely advertising
matter. The government has been
carrying them through the mail at
an ascertained loss OF nine cents per.
Well, President Taft and his post
master general. Mr.. Hitchcock, have
been trying to get congress to change
the rates on magazines SO as to make
them pay something like what 1t
costs the government to transport
them through the mails So far the
magazine proprietors have been able
10 control the majority In congress
and stave off any advance In postage
rates on the magazines must pay.
President Taft has told these gentle
men that so long as he is president
his efforts will be bent toward max
ing them pay somewhere near what
u actually costs the government to
deliver their publications to subscrib-
ers and agents through the mails.
At the last moment Of the closing
Of the 61st congress the bill raising
the rates TO magazines was thrown
overheard and a further investiga
ton Of the subject ordered. 1t Is tc
be hoped that the SD congress will
take action.--White Pine News.
