LEGISLATION AS TO SALARIES AND TO DELIVERY IN
CITIES OF 10000 PEOPLE TO BE ASKED FOR
Icy TELEGRAPH THE TRIBUsE.l
wAsu1vcToY Nov 1.-THE Postmaster-General'
in his forthcoming annual report will call attention.
as his predecessors have done, to certain eccenrlc-
ties in the method of determining the COM
pensation of postmasters. An enort was
made in this direction last year, but Congress
failed fully TO adopt the recommendations Vi
the Departmeut so that the proposed equalization OF
salaries has failed in great measure III
many of the smaller towns postmasters were
receiving n compensation as great as IN many
of the larger cities. The theory of the Post Oihce
Department-and it is the only sensible one-is that
the postmasters at the smaller offices should get less
and those at the larger more compensation. Inc
Postnaster-Gcneral will urge additional legislation
in regard to postmasters commissions 1t beng tound
that they engage in varOus practices not consistent
with their duties to the Department 1t is now pro
proposed To place heavy penalty upon the sale oil
stamps by postmasters for less than their face value
The subject of introducing domicile delivery OF
letters has been informally considered on several oc-
casons recently at the Post Office Department lhls
system now in operation in France, has been found
successful there and the cost owngto the increased
omounf of mail transmitted has not been excessive
The DEPARTMENT il not vet ready TO make such sys-
tenn for the United States. but II IA proposed 70 urge
an extension OF the frce-delycTv system IN cities ny
adding 70 the list OF cities not haNlnS such llI,lS
those having population of 10000 ana upward:
Cne present limit of the system is To cities OF 2OOuO
inhabitants II Is believed at the Department that
this measure will receive favorable CONSIDERATION IN
Congress, there is scarcely CongItssloha.i nis,
tr1ct in the country that has not one town with a
panulatlOn of 10000.
