Mr. Mansfield has also been identified with the republican state committee. The new postal laws are such that newspaper publishers can arrest any one for fraud who takes a paper and refuses to pay for it. Under the law the man who allows his subscription to run along for some time unpaid and then orders it discontinued, or orders the postmaster to mark it refused, and have a postal card sent notifying the publisher, leaves himself liable to arrest and line, thn same as for theft.

A movement Is on foot to place all the coal mines of Illinois under the control of one company, with a capital of 875,000,000. The operators claim they will have to enter Into such a combination in order to compete with

those of Pennsylvania, who have already done so. It is another illustration on a large scale of the modern tendency to industrial consolidation. The Maryland census enumerator who wadded the returns of two counties by counting several hundred dead persons will probably be let off with a light penalty, though his offense involves line and imprisonment. No motive has been assigned for the act, and it seems to have been prompted more by stupidity than viciousness, though there is a gooi deal of both in the rural districts of Maryland. The Culver Herald in complimenting Senator Parks aDd Representative Metsker for their work in the legislature makes a slight mistake when it says that Senator Parks was the only member on the judiciary committee in the senate. There were nine senators on this committee and it is likely that the Herald meant to say that Mr. Parks was the only new member on the judiciary committee.
