LAWS RELATING TO NEWSPAPERS.
[tuapeka times.]
We have been asked to give the law, as it stands, relating to newspapers and snbscribers: —
1. Subscribers who do not give express notice to the contrary are considered wishing to continue their subscription!
2. If subscribers order the discontinuance of their periodicals, the publishers may continue to send them uniil arrears are paid. 3. If subscribers neglect or refuse to take their periodicals from the office to which they are directed, they are held responsible until they have settled their bills, and ordered them discontinued. 4. If subscribers move to other places without informing the publishers, and the papers are sent to the former direction they are responsible.
5. The courts have decided that refusing to take periodicals from the office, or removing and leaving them uncalled for, is prima facie evidence of intentional fraud.
6. Any person who receives a newspaper and makes use of it, whether he has ordered it or not, is held in law to be a subscriber.
