A WOMAN JUDGE

Miss Mary NJ. Bartalme will take
her place on the bench of the juvenile
court this week-the first woman
Judge Chicago has ever had. She is
to sit in a separate part devoted 70
the trial of girls and young women
charged with minor offenses.
Miss Bartalme, who is a former
school teacher, a lawyer and public
guardian in Cook county, owes her
elevation to the bench to suSges-
ton made by President Harry Plat
Judson of the University of Chicago,
and Jane Adams of Hull House.
1t is the highest jud,cial place any
woman has ever attained in Illinois,
the next highest position ever held
by a woman in the state, being that
of a justice of the peace.

AS a matter of fact, the reasoning
of the World was most illogical. The
things that it referred to as facts die
not reach the dignity of circum
stances-they were mere assump
tions.
Champ Clark could not do SO and
so because Bryan couldn't do so and
so.
Is there any logic in a statement Of
| that sort? Is such statement as
clear as the noonday sun? Is con

Underwood couldn't do so and sc

Will that kind of logic bear any kind

Before his election as governor OF
New Jersey was not Woodrow Wilson
an INFESTED candidate, and is he not
an INFESTED candidate now for the
higher office of president?
Were not Madison and Monroe, and
Harrison, and Polk, and Taylor and
Pierce, and Buchanan, and Lincoln
and Grant, and number of other men

The object of the Worlds broad

too many delegates from debatable

To the Editor Ocala Banner:
In your issue of above date you re-
print an article. gazing some Stats
ties. etc, from the Farm Journal,
anent the proposed raise in the price
Of postage on second class matter, as
this rate applies to newspapers and
magazines. The press, as a whole,
has been fighting this raise since it
was first suggested, and since, if we
recollect right, Mr.. Taft has sanction
ed the change. we are not sure that
bis monumental unpopularity may not
be traced in large measure to his at
tltude on this subject.
While the writer is not from Mis-
souri," yet there are some things he
would like 10 "be shown"
l. Why one department of the gov
ernmental service should be unduly
taxed In order that another may be
relieved OF taxation? Letter postage,
Il u now understood, is paying the
magazine deficits. Is this just? 1t
requires that every user of a postage
stamp. though he be too poor to take
even his county paper, shall help to
make up magazine deficits.
?. As in the article quoted by you,
nearly all objections to the raise
which We have seen. urge that ''such
an increase would have to be met by
subscribers and not by publishers. !"
Certainly. but does not the ultimate
consumer foot the bills anyway? Who
IL now paying for the delivery of the
GOODS, making up the deficit? Not the
publishers. but the public, out of the
surplus from first class matter But
the whole people pay it now" To be
sure. Is that fair? Wouldn't it be
more In keeping with the square
deal" policy of business to require the
fellows who dance to pay the fiddler?
Why should |, to whose library table
there comes a half dozen magazines,
set them for less than they cost, and
insist that my neighbor who cannot
or does not afford these things, shall
be d0uble-taxed on every letter or
postal he mails TO enrich me? Is it
fair play?
g. have seen 1t argued that the
governments nominal postal rate on
magazines Is responsible for the I'M
paralieled circulation of such litera-
ture. and that therefore the people
have become enlightened and educat-
ed From our viewpoint the thing
works the other way. The people
have become educated, therefore they
demand the literature. At least it is
a sword that cuts both ways. But ad-
hitting. II you please. for arguments
sake, that the low rate of postage has
been responsible for the wide circu-
iatlOn OF periodical literature, and
therefore the people have become in
telligently informed. is that any rea-
son why. having derived the benefit,
they should not be required to bear

a Just proportion of the burden?

a just proportion of the burden?
4. The figures you print affirm that
for 1911 the revenue from second
class matter amounted to $3.50 per
capita. This seems preposterously
high, but since we have not the gov.
eminent reports, let that pass. 1t is
stated that the cost of transporting
second class matter is 9 cents, there
by entailing a loss of cents. Cut
these figures in half, then cut the
half in half, and then cut off some
more. Now say the revenue is 1888
| if the cost be cents per pound, in
stead of s, and the present rate is /
cent per pound, yield a revenue OF
1888 per capita, it will appear that
the loss lie 1 cent per pound, or $253
| per capital! That is to say it costs
each man, woman and child 1888 per
annum to supply the revenue neces
sary to transport periodical literature
to that proportion of the population
who are the major consumers. But
where does this enormous sum go
that the people make up? Let the
magazine trust, with it's multiplied
millions of watered or common
stock rise to answer. Of course the
public should bear the burden. 1t al
ways does. A certain popular and
widely read magazine published once
a week, it is said, derives an income
of more than 100000 each issue from
advertising alone-about one-half of
it's space being thus occupied. The
advertiser pays from $4,000 to $4,000
per page, the publication agreeing to
deliver the advertisement to a spec
| fled number of readers. But the poll
cy of the government which subsidiz-
es magazine literature out of it's sur
plus from letter postage receipts, per-
mits this particular magazine to turn
into its profit account a sum approx
mating $500 an issue. But why do
the magazines squeal? That is, if
the public must pay the bills? Here
is the milk in the cocoanut. For
several years publishers have been
raising the price of their publications
They are afraid the public will not
stand for another hold up" That
would mean loss of circulation. That
in turn would mean loss on volume
and value from advertising business.
Hence the howl If they were sure
the advertiser would stand raise in
the price of space, or the public would
uncomplainingly suffer a raise equal
to the increased postal rate, it is
doubtful if much printers INK would
be squandered in the frenzied effort
to forestall the proposed government
al action. But alas! as in many other
directions, Uncle Trusty" with apol
ogies to Hearst) sits quietly over the
situation, his eye on the hopper and
his hand under the grist, ready to
give the dear people" what's left
after he has taken his toll.
