POST OFFICE REGULATION.

 approved August 18th, in the pre- sent year, which all newspapers and periodicals must file semi annually, in April and October, showing the responsible manage ment and ownership of the busi- ness, the names of all shareholders, if the business be incorporated, and the holders of any bonds, indebt- edness, or other securities executed by the owners, whether individual or corporate, where such bonds, indebtedness or security exceed one per cent of the capitalization.
 The law has been adopted by Congress in response to an insist ent demand from a portion of the press and a good many people, that some such enactment be spread upon the statute book. The ground for that demand has been that many of the most important mag azines and daily newspapers have been bought and controlled by trusts and corporations, and that all their editorial utterances are framed to advocate the interests of their actual owners, as against the interest of the great mass of the people. Other journals and period calls, while not owned by "the in- terests" have sold, so it is claimed, their editorial space for valuable consideration. The idea of those advocating the legislation adopted has been that where the ownership of a newspaper is shown, as now exacted by law, or its obligations are made public, and the exhibit is made that such ownership is cap. .italistic, or that it's financial obli- gations are held in similar interests there would be discounted the in- .huence upon the public mind of their arguments and editorial ut- terances along certain lines. An other provision of the law reaches in another way the publication which is not owned outright by special interests but sells it's news and editorial space, which provi- sion compels attaching the word advertisement" to paid reading notice or article of any description for which pay is charged, paid or accepted, or promise given of a valuable consideration therefor. The penalty for omission of that word from any such notice is a fine of not less than fifty dollars, and not more than five hundred, levied upon the offending editor. A failure to supply the sworn state- ment exacted is punished by ex. clusion from the mails of the of. lending publication.
 The new law has been received by the newspaper press generally with more or less indignation, many holding it violation of the constitutional provision in the f,1 n I n ,>oo,.G :. I s... of o II zI.A I

and the American Newspaper Pub. fishers Association is reported to be preparing to take into the courts case to test that very question of constitutionality Some of the leading newspapers of the country however, such as the New York Globe, Washington Star and Salt Lake Herald have welcomed cheerfully the new legislation and announced their intention to com- ply with it's provisions. Many other prominent newspapers, such as the New York World New York Even ing Post, Brooklyn Eagle, Boston Transcript, Philadelphia Press, New York Herald, etc., criticise tho measure unsparingly as an invasion of private and sacred rights not permissible under a free government.
 To this journal it seems that the law, whether constitutional or not, is too sweeping and cannot be en- forced without employment of an elaborate system of secret police with du:y prescribed to check up each issue of all the twenty odd thousand newspapers and period icals in the United States and de- termine whether they comply with all it's provisions, lodging in- formations and bringing to trial offending publishers caught derelict. To do all that would mean another great addition to the class of feder- al public officials throughout the U nited States, and add greatly to the burdens of government, which are criticised now as being altogether too great. Moreover strict enforce ment of the law would necessitate espionage upon private busi- ness such as would be intoler- able under free government. It might be tolerated in Russia, but not in the United States.
 Another objection THE OASIS finds in the law is the severe pen alties provided for unwitting viola tion of some of it's provisions. There would be no difficulty in making the semi-annual sworn statement as to ownership, management, etc. :; but the addition of the word advertisement" to every paid reading notice is where the danger lies. Under that provision every reading notice, though it be only two line local announcing a sale of fall millinery, must be made to appear as an advertisement. As is frequently the case, the responsi- ble editor of a small newspaper, has to absent himself for several days, and his paper is issued in his his absence, the proof reading aad general supervision falling to his employees. If by any oversight of an employe a reading notice, no matter how insignificant, appeared in the paper without the word of de- signation as an advertisement, the editor becomes subject at once to a heavy penalty. The very injustice of the proposition is appalling. Such mistakes. are apt to occur in any printing office; and a law which makes an innocent mistake like that made by one man crime which another must condone by inhiction of heavy punishment | IT.

NEW YORK COTTON MARKET

NEW YORK, Nov. 19.-Cotton opened
strong and higher in sympathy with
the better cables. and later advanced,
with leading options selling about 20
to 35 points above the low prices re
corded on the decline last Friday.
Leading spot interests, Pell and the
Waldorf crowd, led by Castles, a tim es
were large buyers, and Castles is quot
ed as predicting 12la cents for May
contracts this week. The chief buying g
motive was the talk of bullish south
ern spot situation. Well posted people
were among those talking the strength
of the spot position and there seemed
few disposed to deny the firmness of
southern holders. The forecast on the
probable showing of the governm ent
report, due next Thursday m orning at
the opening, indicates 1,435,O0O bales
compared with only 1880 ginned
last year in the same period. The New
Orleans market advanced 10 points af-
ter the New York close on a rumor that
Newburger will put out an estimate of
1873. and also that the Memphis Com
mercial Appeal report will be bullish.
