Washington. Jan. 29. — The b ill of
tbe Joint Postal commission, just com
pleted, if enacted into law, would cre
ate a press censorship in the hands of
government employes to determine
what information the reading public
wants, and
extend a paternalistic
guardianship over the counting room
by lim iting the amount of advertising
and specifying just how it shall be
printed in tbe pages of daily newspa
pers. '
The joint commission started work
on the 'hypothesis that second class
mail matter is carried at a loes to the
government, and does not pay its pro
portionate share in revenue. One of
the main rreeulte of its pondering is
the discovery that the newspaper, ee
pecially the Sunday edition, has ex
panded too much in the direction of the
magazine. The members of the com
mission avow that the miscellaneous
matter contained in the Sunday issue
of a newspaper lacks the “ quality to
make it socially and educationally val
uable.”
They would reform every
thing by abolishing the Sunday supple
ment or else make it so inocuous that
nobody would care to read it.
A glance at the above provisions of
the bill w ill fully convince any one o!
the radical nature of the law the com
mission proposes. I t would lim it the
amount of advertising; it would elim i
nate all legitimate advertising matter
from supplements, and it would pre
vent the publication in the supple
ments of all fiction, of all matter of
general and useful information regard
ing the affairs of the world, and make
the supplement merely an overflow for
the news of the main sheet.

At the same

places suffering from the want of- these
necessities of life. Mayor James J.
Dougherty, a t Park River, N. D., com
plains that the Great Northern railroad
is not making any effort to move trains
over the lines reaching there. The
oity is entirely out of coal. There has
been no mail for(eix days. Tbe weather
is fine.
Prompt action, the mayor
urges, should be taken to compel the
delivery of fuel and mail.
A dispatch from Sherwood, N. D.,
dated January 26, says the place is en
tirely without fuel of any kind. Three
cars of coal for Sherwood, it is assert
ed, were confiscated at Mohalt. There
has been no train for a week. As pro
visions are low, the situation is report
ed alarming.
Under yesterday’s date a dispatch
from Milton, N. D., says ■-that two cars
of soft coal liave arrived, but no mail
train as yet. From President H ill, of
the Great Northern, a dispatch was re
ceived from St. Paul, dated January 26,
saying that two freight trains with 17
cars of coal got through Thursday on

places suffering from a lack of coal.

tary Root, Secretary Taft, Postmaster

The Interstate Commerce commission
has submitted certain principles which
tbe members think should form the

and if these meet the views of the
president, they w ill be submitted to
that body. Tbe president’s decision is
one of the results of the recent Chicago

San Francisco. Jan. 28.— The Bulle

that when Interstate Commerce Com
missioner Lane arrives here this week
to investigate the relations between the
railroads and shippers, he w ill find
conditions very similar to those at 8e-
attle with respect to the “ tipping”
system, resorted to by shippers and
warehouse men, in order to get their
can.
According to the Bulletin’s informa
tion, the practice has been followed at
the Oakland yards for some time, and
merchants have fonnd that, in order to
get their care to the warehouses they
have to “ tip ” the switchmen in the
yards.
At the office of General Manager Cal
vin, of the Southern Pacific company,
today, it was admitted that this is be
ing done, but it was stated that the
fault lay with the merchants them
selves, who, of their own volition, re
sort to this practice in order to get
speedy delivery. It was with the ap
proval of the company.
