PUBLISHERS MUST COMPLY
WITH POSTOFFICE LAW

The Times on Thursday re-
ceived from the postoffice de-
partment at Washington a letter
in which was enclosed a copy Of
the law governing the mailing of
newspapers at the second-class,
or pound, rate. This law, it will
be recalled, was passed by Con-
gress about two years ago and
prohibits publishers from mailing
papers at second-class rates to
subscribers who are in arrears
for the paper fur more than one
year. Along with the letter
came also a blank to cover a par
ticular issue of The Times, to be
filled out by the publisher, who,
after making oath that the state
ments contained therein are cor
rect, will forward it to the third
assistant postmaster general.
We publish below the list of
questions to be answered, along
with the section of the law pro-
viding penalties for publishers
who make false statements:
First: How many copies of
the above issue did you print?
Second: How many were
mailed to subscribers?
Third: How many copies
were sold by news agents, de-
livered by your own carriers. or
sold over your own counter?
Fourth: How many copies
were mailed as sample copies"?
Fifth: What disposition is
made of the remaining copies
printed?
Sixth: Of the copies mailed
to subscribers, how many were
to persons whose subscriptions
at the time of mailing this issue
were In ar. cars more than one
year and had not been expressly
renewed?
Any person who shall submit,
or cause to be submitted, to any
postmaster, or TO the Post Office
department, or airy officer Of the
postal service. ofany false evil
dence relative to any publication
for the purpose of securing the
admission thereof at the second
class rates for transportation in
the mails, shall be deemed guilty
OF q mlsdemeanor, and for every
such otfense, upon conviction
thereof shall be punished by a
fine of not less than $1OO nor
more than $500" a,
From the above sections y,
will seem that publishers cannot
send = papers on tim1 to sub.
scrlbers at second-eSass rates fo,
longer than onoag vaar m;tbo',t viii ,ut
Of s the I'su, '"e Jaw. A violation
T; ~ Ine law yr&ould mean that The
thro,1oh @ h'oJdld no longer be sent
oIns ohIrougns the mail at the second
Sa1S sos ifate and that one-cent
niP would have to be placed
a. a. feach copy of the paper. TIC
40 this would mean an expense
of 52 cents per year on each
paper sent out, and to say that
this could be done and the paper
prosper is not to know. This
would be nearly half of what il
charged for the paper, saying
nothing of the cost of blank
paper. composition in getting il
up and work of mailing it out
Recently The Times has beer
forced to discontinue a number
of subscriptions on account o.
this law, and has on it's lists /;
few others who will be dropped
soon unless payment for tn,
paper is made.

NEW TARIFF BlLL

The new Tariff bill was signed
by the President last Friday and
at once became law.
1t was predicted by the repub-
licans as soon as the democrats be-
gan working ON this bill, that when
it became . law it would have dire
results on the conntry's business.
They referred to the panic OF 1893
when the democrats were in power
and passed the German Wilson bill.
So far we have had no i'll effects of
this bill except that wool sold from
three to five cents less than it
should. The panic of 1893 com.
menced some months before the
bill was passed. The United States
today is enjoying splendid busi-
ness activity. @....-.
So far as Montana and the west
ern states are concerned we believe
the bill has not given them an
equal advantage with the eastern
states. It has removed the duty
on wool and sheep raising was one
Of our principal industries. 1t has
lowered the duty o. sugar (Which

cally cut off all the duties on the
