a century and a quarter. Probably
the most conspicuous of these cases
is that of the three men named Chas

The postoffice department could not
have selected worse time for making
such demand on the publishers in

ways aimed to avoid calling upon the

times OF financial stringency, like these,

Public Business In Secret.

The demand for publicity of every
thing and anything that concerns the
public is growing stronger and stronger
1t rests upon the inborn suspicion that
the transaction of public business in
secret aims TO cover up something that
would not look good in the light of day.
That is why We have had to pass laws
to meet the de mand for publicity of
campaign expenditures, for publicity
for railroads, for publicity of fran
chlsed corporation finances, for pub
lefty of insurance companies, for pub
LEFTY in all directions. Whenever pub
lie servants presist in transacting pub
lie business behind barred doors. there
is a protest, and it is hard toget people
to accept explanations. Publicity is
one of the prime elements of progress
iveness, and resort to the dark recesses
of secrecy is rsacuonism even though
committed by men who prete nd to be
progressives. Omaha Bee.
