SCORE ANOTHER FOR THE AFTERNOON NEWSPAPER

. y
The rapid changes in the San Francisco
newspaper field furnish another conclusive
proof of the advantages enjoyed by afternoon
newspapers over their morning competitors The
Call, for more than half century prominent in
Coast journalism, has been bought by Mr.. NJ III.
de Young and on September / was merged with
the Chronicle, Mr.. de Young's splendid newspa-
per property. Almost on the heels of this news
comes the announcement that f. w. Kellogg
and john d. SpreSkels will publish the Call as
an afternoon newspaper The significance of
this is that San Francisco loses big morning
paper and gains bigger afternoon paper The
afternoon field is already supplied by two ag-
gressive five-cent dailes, the Bulletin and the
Post, and by the News, the onecent Scripps-
MeRae daily. Yet the Call proposes to enter
this afternoon field and does not doubt that
there will be business enough to justify the move.
That sbusiness'' of course, means very largely
advertising business The local and foreign adj
vertisers recognize the unique advantages of the
afternoon newspaper, and the Call feels conf
dent Of enough revenue to assure its success as
a high-class afternoon paper. The evening daily,
going into the home to be read during the fam
ilys leisure hours, is the paper with which the
discriminating advertiser places the majority of
his business, and every change in the world of
journalism only gees to prove this now unques-
toned fact.

Star Bulletin has no sympathy with any attempt

MORE ABOUT THE PosToFFicE.
Editor Honolulu Star, Bulletin.
Sir: The local postoffice seems to
be very much in the 1imelighi of late
regarding a number of lelinquencies
that are calling for all kinds of
kicks" from the people of this city.
II is possible that in some instances
the people are in the wrong, and ex-
pect a little more than the postofiee
laws allow, but from a seventeen
year experience as postmaster in a
fairly-sized town, Il am inclined to
think that there is a lot OF bluff be-
ing exuded by some of the employees
of The postoffice for the purpose of
saving them some work
The local postoffice seems to close
its window on the least provocation,
nd sometimes when there seems to
be no proyocation. | don't believe
that he local postoffice had any right
to close its window last Monday at
all, an action that caused a roar from
the businessmen of the city, and
rightly. This is only one instance OF
numerous similar closings, and the
legality of the act, and of many others
that seem to be aga IT the proper
conduct of "a postotfice, can be settled
by application 10 the postoffice depart.

May Call Another
 Special Session

Phoenix sdvices are to the effect that it is believed that if the revised statutes are carefully considered, sec- tion by section, ss they will un- doubtedly be, the present sixty day session will not be sufficient time in which to complete the all important work. It would be an almost im- possible task. even if every second of the full sixty days should be devoted to the code revision work, which ie not probable. The sntiesspita! punS- ishment bill and several other meas- urers suggested by Governor Hunt in his message. have been already intro duced and their consideration is cer. tain to take up great deal of time of the present session.
 The session now being held con. tinnes but fo. sizsy days, as :hs sx- piration oi which time, it is under. stood, the pay of the member ceases. In order to further continue the work 1t is understood that it will be nsces- ssry for Governor Hunt to call au. other extra session.

May Prosecute
 Agents for Fraud

Government experts are investigst. ing the practice of curbstone agents who are alleged to be bringing people from the Pacific coast and locating them on deeert land in Arizons th at
 is absolutely worthless. It is charged
 that the Rrossest misrepreseniations
 regarding the nesrness of water to the surface. and other important points,
 have heen made, also that locators have bee shown one piece of land and their papers made out for ground situated miles away.
 These. however. are not the mos, serious phases of the situation. Many of the locators have sworn that they are citizens of Arizons, in order to file on the land, though they really are residents of California. Some of them are engaged in business there. A great plumber are doubtless told by the agents that . mere intention to become citizens of Arizona at some time iu the future is sufficient to com. ply with the strict letter of the law. |
 All are liable to prosecution for l fraud.
