LAW GOVERNING
SUBSCRIPTIONS

Most readers of newspapers
are not familiar with the laws
governing collections for sub.
scriptions and what legal rights
the publisher has. The follow.
ing decisions Of the United States
Supreme Court make the rights
absolutely clear.
Subscribers who do not give
express notice to the contrary
are considered as wishing to re-
new their subscriptions.
If the subscriber orders n dis.
continuance Of their publication
the publisher may continue to
send them until all dues are
paid.
II the subscriber refuses to
take periodicals from the post
office to which they are directed,
he is responsible until he has
settled his bill and then or
dered the paper discontinued.
II subscribers move to other
places without informing the
publisher and the papers are
sent to the former address, the
subscriber is held responsible. "
The courts have held that re.
jusing to take periodicals from
the post Office or removing and
leaving them uncalled for is pri.
ma facie evidence Of intention to
defraud.
IF subscribers pay in advance
they are bound to give notice at
the end OF the time II they do
not wish to continue taking il,
otherwise the subscriber is held
responsible until expressed notice
with payment Of all arrearage is
sent to the publisher. " stdR
Editorial note While the amount
of the subscription accounts is
usually so small that the publish.
er dislikes to put them out for
collection, sometimes this be.
comes necessary. An experience
of II years in the newspaper bus
mess has convinced the editor Of
the "Crittenden Record Press"
that his books are the finest in.
dex to the character Of people oh.
talnable. A man who will dispute
a subscription account and fail
for various reasons TO pay same
is unworthy Of the confidence or
credit Of the community in a7y
kind of a transaction and in fact
can't be trusted.
Recently a business man in a
distant state asked the editor in
regard toa certain party who
formerly resided here. A refer.
ence to the hooks showed he did
not pay for his county paper.
(which only cost &c a week. We
80 advised the inquirer, who very
promptly penned us this famous
truth.
"A man who won't pay for his
county paper won't pay anything
If he can help il. Wen let him
alone"

United States Senator John Sharp
Williams has been proclaimed "Mis-
sissippi's most distinguished states
man" by committee appointed by
Gov. Brewer of that state at the re-
quest of the president of the Panama
Pacific Exposition. .....
Williams stock in trade is abuse of
his colored fellow citizens who consti-
tute about one-half of the population
of Mississippi. The committee did
well to select John Sharp Williams,
because he is true exponent of the
Mississippi idea. It may be surprise
to many people to learn that when
racial questions were discussed in
Congress, Williams was more vehe-
ment and vitriolic in his ,denunciation
of one-half the people Of his state than
that other Mississippi saint. James X.
Vardaman.
Northern people had conceived the
idea that "Jimkay" was the champion
negrophobist of Mississippi, but he
couldn't fool the committee of disting-
uished white citizens of that more OF
less grand commonwealth.

The personal property assessment
Tor 1915, Of Julius Rosenwald, the So

assistant states attorney, assigned to

It appears that Rosenwald is not
paying what he ought to pay. His
profits, from a stock dividend alone

the majority are lacking in one. vital
point manhood.
Many have made it known that they
would gladly accept place with the
understanding That 1t would be run
along the color line. They have
agreed that they would segregate the
colored employees in their offices. It
is disgusting to think that there are
such cattle on earth, but THE APP.

such is the case.
Such men should not receive official
recognition. They would work great
injury to the people as whole: Seq.

tell the President that the colored PEG
pie prefer justice to offices and that il
