CHEAP POSTAGE.

In the House. on the 10Th ms, Nh Goggin to
point Of order and in the Of his remarks Sadha
he hell in his hand substitute which he pro posed to
offer for the original bill which he had as Chairman Of
the POST Office committee hitherto reported when That bill
should be taken up If the bill taken up he would
place in the hands Of the Reporter, that the House
might see the character of the substitute. II is accor
ding y published at length in the Globe The substitute
differs in many particulars from the original bill. The
rate postage letters is The Scents PREPAID
on all not exceeding half in weight fr all dis
tances The pre- payment Of postage newspapers, by
the publishers is very properly abandoned The pos
iage for all distances fixed at cent for each pape
exceeding 900 square inches; al half papers
Of superfcies between 500 and 1900 inches; and
fourth Of papers Of less titan 500 square inches.
Transient newspapers and all circulars to be charged
cents-o be paid in advance. The Post Master Gencr-
al may add to The commissions of Postmasers sum su
icent make their quarterly compensation equal to
what it during the quarter ending The lst july 1919
The ranking privilege to be entirely abolished.
This substitute we think very great improvement
upon the original bill, and we earnestly hope it may yet
become la y. It strikes being nearly perfect in
its details We are glad that postage On newspapers is
not required TO be paid in advance-lhat adequate com
pensation is provided for postmlsters during tie few
years that the will fall short Of The present re-
ceiptsand that ranking is discarded. The substitute
is quite radical enough to meet the poprlar sentiment and
its passage viii be hailed with the highest satisaciion
by nine tenthS Of the people Of the United States. MI
