New Voice Leaflets Denied Second-Class Mail

The Post-office Department has ruled out the New Voice Leaflets (a temperance periodical) from the privileges of second-class mail matter. The publishers claim that every objection has been fully met, and that the cut is solely for campaign political purposes. They say that the "strained and harsh construction of the rules" would also operate against many Sunday-school and political publications that go out in clubs, and are largely circulated gratuitously.
