SHOULD PASS THE BRILL The bill introduced by Representa tive Lond, of California, in regard to second-class postal matter, Ans 1G oor pect ahtpws which sucomsive post. masters genera! have diseowsed in the reports, and to which the President has called the attention of Congress. At presént the transportation of mes oid: class postal mutier i on Friedl on at a large lost to the govern this toss is traceaids not TO the class publications which the elasdfiontio was destgnod 10 COVET, but ti pa ene tions which are only noni jeal in their character, The classification clude newspapers and magazines, but a class of book publiscers have man: aged to work their publications | this class by styling them periodical publications, sithough really distinct and séparste books. The pernicious class of flash literature for boys has been greatly stimulated and developed by getting into the periodical class. “Jimmy the Kid, or the Terror of the Plsins,” ocaght to pay book postage rates, but hy Bening it as a number of the ‘“‘Rav's Anventore Library" the publisher enters it an second-class mat. ter. and loads it upon the mails at the fixed rates of newspapers. Another effect of this abuse has bowen to call Into existence # class of publications known Yen, a Waeant Wan a as houge organs, which are really ad A New York vertising pamphlets publisher of this sort of matter not | Jong ago attempted to send through the mails as second-class matter a bulky directory, on the ground that it waa gotten up as & number of a peri odieal publication. It is doubtful whether under a strict enforcement of existing laws such abuses could have grown up, bat evil has gone bevornd administrative pontral and calls for action of Congress, The Loud bill is indorsed by the Amr. jean Trade Press association, repre senting ligitimate trade periodicals. It is to be hoped timt Congress will pass the bill. ABOUT SUAINS FINANCES The London Statist, in speaking of Spain's finances, says that practoally, Spain has never paid her way She has siways had to borrow to pay the charge of her debt. Bhe has again and again defaulted. She has reorganized the debt, Rhe his rednced it in all man. ner of ways. And since her settlement with ber oreditors she has paid the interest ont of borrowed money just as before. Spain, there. fore, in the truest and most literal sense of the word is insolvent. Bat she has somehow or other managed to rube money enough to pay her creditors up to the present. It is said that negotia- tions are going on with France which will result in another Spanish loan be- ing brought out in Paris. That remains to be seen. A French loan, of course, woud be an immense advantage for the time being. But if would he a much greater advantage to Spain than to the Prench investors and in speaking as to why she holds on to Cuba this journal says: “It is natorsl, at the same time, that Spain should cling with tenacity to Cuba. Ones Spain lorded it over the whole of Central and Bouth America, and a very large part of North America likewise, Now every inch of her continental possess. jon in gone, and she retains only a few islands off the coast. That ahe should prize these even beyond their worth is most nataral. That she should spend blood and treasure freely to retain ther is in accordance with haman nature. Bat, looked at from the sconomic point of view by those who are not stirred by Spanish feeling, it is certain that the connection with Cuba ix a disadvantage to Spain.’ PENNA AIR FOR CONSUMPTIVES The government has recognized the virtues of the dry atmosphere of the highlands of McKean county, Pa, by taking steps for the establishment of 4 home for the men who have contrasted consumption while in the army Bavy, says the Pitsburg t Telegraph. An agent of the War De. partment has purchased three acres of ground in the own of Kane, on which suitable baildings will be erected, The government has bad ponsumptive sol- dlera and sailors ig Kane and ia borhiood for several years, testing the #¥oct of the elisnate, and the result bas been so satisfactory that a permanent a7 irs BILE weigh snstitution for the care of such pplivats : has been determined upon. The dry atmosphere of the south- western portion of McKean county has long been known as pecaliarly bene. ficial in lung diseases sent there from different parts of the United States and even from Europe. Local newspapers say that at present about 100 consumptives from Europe are wintering there, and that doring the past 12 months not a single de ath from consumption has occurred in : Kane among all the visitors, Natives never have the disease. : Pennsylvanians need not go to Colo _ yado or to other distant natural sani tariums, when their own State offers a " the jan Sufferers wre reigon of relief from this distressing and fatal malady.
