THE AMERICAN OF last week referred to
the recent snow storm as making people
talk of sold fashioned winters" and raises
the query. how old are old-fashioned
winters: A letter in the possession OF an
old Ellsworth family, bearing date OF 1881,
mentions that the winter "has been warm
and rainy. but heavy fall of snow yester-
day makes us hope that at last we shall
have an old-fashioned winter" Another
point OF interest, although this letter was
dated December %, and was written by
the mott her Of family to her brother, and
speaks freely OF the smusements and
occupations Of the children, there is no
mention OF Christmas. Il that suggestion
OF the days when New Years day was
set apart for merry making and gift
giving, and the descendants OF the Puritans
left the celebration of Christmas to their
Episcopal brethren?

Entirely contrary to the course that
administration officials had declared
he would take, President Wilson last
Wednesday night despatched to all
the warning powers formal notes sug
costing that an early occasion be
sought to call out from the nations at
war an avowai of their respective
terms upon which peace might be
concluded. He does not actually pro-
pose peace negotiations, or offer
mediation, but is feeling about for
some ground on which these may be
based. The note is generally looked
upon as ill timed, ill., considered, and
as playing into the hands of the Teu-
tonic allies. To make matters worse,
Secretary of State Lansing, imme-
diately after. the publication of the
Presidents note, thought it necessary
to issue an explanatory statement,
and this was followed almost imme-
diately by another statement from
the secretary explaining the explana-
ton.

Postmaster General Burleson now
proposes that newspapers and all
other publications admitted to the
mails shall be transmitted by parcel
post and pay the government zone
rates for transportation. Such law,
If enacted, added to the great in
creased cost Of white paper and Of
other printing material, will be the
final straw which will break the back
of the publishing business in this
country. The principal of Mr.. Burle-
sons act is wrong. Newspapers,
magazines and periodicals. pass
through the mails for q low rate of
postage because it has always been the
policy of this country to disseminate
knowledge and Information as widely
as possible. The more newspapers
the people read the better informed
they become as to the kind of govern
ment they are having. To take from
the newspapers and periodicals the
privilege of the low postage rate will
be q direct blow to good government.
Their transmission undoubtedly costs
the government q large sum each
year, but the people pay for it, and
they get full value for what it costs
them.
