Of Course It's Not Legal.
The Syracuse Journal complied with
the order of Secretary of State Galusha
and printed what it called a supple
ment containing the proposed consti
tutional amendment. This Is the
second supplement we have seen and
neither of them contained a single
line of reading matter but was tilled
wiin advertisements. That supple
ment Is not worth the paper on which
It Is printed and should have been
excluded from the malls. Every news
daper publisher knows that under the
law- that supplement could not have
been folded and sent out with the
regular edition, because It was not
what It purported to be. Nebraska
City News.,
Any newspaper man, who is at all
posted knows that a supplement tilled
up only with advertising, and no read
ing matter cannot legally pass through
the malls. And the constitutional
amendment Is nothing more than an
advertisement paid for by the state.
Of course, if Nebraska has "got money
to burn," It is just as well to give it
to the newspapers, who favor the
wilyGalusha for re-f lection. This Is
why it was delayed, the secretary of
state wanted the amendment in those
papers only who favored his re-nomi
nation. Hut Nebraska can al'ord to
throw away l,ooo in this manner.
Tho taxpayers are the sufferers.
