A slight Error.

Under the heading, More Postal Dam
phoolism," the Moline Dispatch gets off
the following: that bill is now pending be-
fore Congress that proposes to do away
with the compulsory prepayment of letters
by the afixing Of special stamp by the
mailing Office designating the amount to be
collected at the receiving Office. The Only
error 10 this matter is that it is altogether
a mistake. A bill is now pending before
Congress that provides as follows:
Any letter that shall have been Par
Eally prepaid by one full rate Of postage.
shall have affixed, by the mailing Office,
a stamp designating the amount of
postage due, such letter shall then be for =
warded to its destination, and the stamp so
affixed by the mailing Office shall De charg-
ed to the receiving office.
1t is designed as a check Of one Office
against another, in order that Uncle
Samuel may receive all money due him for
postal service, without a risk of such
small amounts being forgotten by the diff
ferent offices. This stupid device as
the Dispatch calls it is 10 reality most
excellent one.
