Chief Justice White Interpreted the
objectionable regulation as being not
a restriction of the freedom of the
press, but merely as affixing addi-
tional conditions for adm&Rsion OF
newspapers to the special privilege OF
the second-class mails
In the course of his opinion he said
WAS the provision intended simply
to supplement the existing legislation
relative to second-class mail matter,
or was 1t enacted as an exertion OF
legislative power to regulate the
press. to curtail its freedom, and
under the assumption that there was
a right to compel obedience to the
command of legislation having that
object in view to deprive one who re-
fused to obey of all right to use the
mail service?
"When the question is thus defined
its solution is free from difficulty.
since by it's terms the provision only
regulates second-class mail and the
exclusion from the mails for which it
provides is not an exclusion from the
malls generally, but only from the
right to participate in and enjoy the
privileges accorded by the second
class classification"
The court declared further that the
requirement that newspapers should
disclose their true owners was in line
with the great public purpose which
induced Congress to continue in favor
of the publishers of newspapers, at
vast public expense, the low postal
rate as we'll as other privileges ac-
corded by the second-class mail
classification" To emphasize this,
the court quoted from the report of
the Senate committee stating that the
intent Of the legislation was "to secure
TO the public in the dissemination of
knowledge of enttevents, by means
Of newspapers, the names not only of
the apparent, but of what might prove
to be the real and substantial own
ers of the publications, and TO enable
i. the public to know whether matter
which was published was what 1t pur-
ported to be, or was, in substance, a
paid advertisement

OPINION OF CHIEF JUSTICE.
The Objectionable Features Said To
Involve No Restriction OF
Rights OF the
Press.

Washington. interpreted by it,
the Supreme Court upheld the con-
stitutionality of the Newspaper Pub
Iicity Law enacted as a part of the
postal appropriation act of 1912.
The particular section attacked
was to bar every newspaper and
periodical from the mails unless the
editors or owners filed with the postal
authorities semi-annual sworn state
ments giving the names of the editors,
officers, stockholders and bondhold-
ers and the average daily circulation
and thereafter, Immediately publish
the statement. 1t also forbade, under
penalty of a fine, the publication of
paid-for articles without marking
them advertisement"
A bitter fight was made against the
law. The journal of Commerce and
Commercial Bulletin of New York led.
1t sought to have the United States
District Court for Southern New
York enjoin the postmaster general
from enforcing the act on the ground
that it was unconstitutional. The OBJ
lection then raiseu was that the law
abridged the freedom of the press by
seeking to regulate the newspaper
business. The government defended
the law as a regulation of the use of
the second-class mail privileges.
The Neaa York court sustained the
validity ofslhe law in this case, as 1t
did In that brought by the Lewis Pub
fishing Company of New York. 1t is

Washington. - The Supreme Court
handed down an opinion holding that
express companies engaged in Inter
State commerce were amenable to the
laws of Congress regulating their
business. This ended a contest that
has been waged in the lower courts

Commission have insisted that ex-

Federal regulation just as railroads
and other common carriers are.

WESTERN PHOSPHATE ROCK.

Western phosphate rock has been
mined only to q moderate extent. Near
Montpelier, Idaho, according to Mining
Science, it occurs dipping at an angle
corresponding with the slope Of hill.
The rock is blasted first and simply
rolls down the incline to a storage
house. where it is loaded into wagons
and hauled to the cars. This rock is
bdeded rock in place and needs no
washing. 1t is shipped to the Pacific
coast and manufactured into fertilizer.
This simple method Of mining, how
ever, applies only at this particular
place. When the field Is developed
most of the mining will be carried on
underground.

PROBLEMS OF RETIRING PAR,
TIES.

Last Tuesday the republican party
ceased for the time being to be the
party In power and became the party
Of opposition. having been replaced
after an unusually long period Of ex-
ecutive control and for most Of the
time full congressional authority also.
In what shape is the country as the
democratic party takes charge, hold
ing both branches Of congress as well
as the presidency? 1t must be ad-
mitted by the fair minded that no
other party ever went out Of power
with such a favorable record, and such
satisfactory working conditions for a
successor. At the end OF the last dem
ocratic administration there were An
ancial difficulties. The treasury had
been struggling with deficit for three
years and had run $135,00,000 behind
for this period. But the last four
years shows large excess Of revenue
over expenditures. At this time the
treasury reports currnt surplus, and
it will be much augmented before the
books are closed for the fiscal year,
June 80. next. Financially, the change
Of parties puts no burden whatever
on the incoming party. In all respects
the treasury Is in excellent running
order.
There Is an International crisis -
relations with Mexico, and also pre-
paredness to meet 1t whatever may
be the course of events. some Of which
are likely to be unexpctd. But 1t Is
for tn new congress and new presi-
dent to deal with the momentous
question Of war, II it must come. They
have an unwritten page before them
The policies adopted for at least the
next two years must be of democratic
choosing. All that IL possible has
been done to face the worst, but with
out in any way cutting off hope for
the best. The republican party feels
that 1t has performed Its entire duty
in good faith and patriotic acceptance
Of the sovereignty Of all the people
Devotion to the welfare of the whole
nation has been the paramount OBJ
ject Of the least sectional party the
country has ever known. From the
first the party has stood for an un.
divided, equal country, looking to
rights and destiny as whole, AND
to the prosperity of all. There Is no
inheritance Of old snags for the COM
ing democratic time Of control. The
serious problems are within that par
~ itself and in its historical tcnden-
cies.
