article stood 43 to Il for convic-
ton, and It was reported that Judge

P1ScH1NG THE NEWSPAPERS.
[Soux City Journal

The newspapers pay the rates OF
postage provided by law. The supreme
court finds warrant in that fact to
justify the postal authorities in enforc-
ing an act of congress to compel pub
fishers to turn their books inside out to
the public. The legislation Is drastic
and does not apply to any other busi-
ness. The tendency Of it ia to break
down business credit. The object OF
the law, of course, is political, and it Is
based on assumption that the stories
about a subsidized press are true. 1t
is doubtful whether there IL better ex-
cuse to proceed against newspapers be-
cause they are admitted to the mails
as second class matter than there Is
to proceed against mercantile houses
because they avail themselves Of the
rates authorized by the parcel post act,
or against business in general because
use II made Of the mails for the trans
mission Of letters. Thare would be no
second class postage, available to news
papers, apart from the exclusive au-
thority of the Iawmaking power. 1t is
not exactly consistent to exercise that
power and then penaiize the publish
ers ON the score OF the assumed gener-
nsity exarclsaA toward them. By the
same rule 1t would seem authority
might be found for subjecting every
occupation to close espionage At the

Sending cardboard models OF school

mail TO local authorities. normal schools.
and other agencies, for use during a
limited period. A number have already
been sent to points in the west and
southwest
Models for one. two. and four-room
schools are provided. The buildings
are planned especially for rural COM
munities where low cost is the first
essential They represent the very lat
est ideas in school architecture: they
are usually attractive to look at: they
are up to the minute in hysienic ar
rangements; yet they are within the
means Of the smallest communities.
The buildings were designed by DR..
F. B. Dresslar, specialist in school hy-
gene Cl the bureau OF eCUCdlION. ana
then worked over by two we'll known
firms of school architects, Cooper &
Bailey, Of Boston. and W. B. Ittner, of
St Louis. The models show all the de-
tails. within and without, and they are
constructed to scale. Fun directions
accompany them.
1t is believed that these models will
