The postofiice department in 1880 affords
a wonderful contrast az compared with 1860
in the degree of service rendered, its cost to
the people, and the revenue to the govern
ment. In 1860 the receipts were only 571S
per cent of the expenditures. while in 1880
they were % a per cent of the expenditures
in other words, in 1860 it cost 81 to get 81 /
cents in postal revenue, while in 1880 it cost
only 81 to get 50 cents. In 1860 all let
ters carried more than 5000 miles were
charged 10 cents. but since 1868 three cents
has been the uniform rate all over the United
States. For newspaper postage the rate then
was twice what it is now, and for books il
was 16 cents per pound for not over 1900
miles, and 30 cents beyond that distance
while now it is only cents for all distances
The uniform rate on newspapers is two cents
per pound without regard to the frequency
of publication, whereas on daily papers
weighing three ounces and under, the cos
was 451a cents quarter in 1860, and if ovel
three ounces and not over four ounces, 81
cents per quarter. With these Improvement
have also come the enlarged railway mai
service, the one-cent postal card, the free
delivery system, the money-order and regis
try systems, all grown to immense proper
tons and all benefitting the public. Unde
President Garfield and Postmaster Genera
James there will be still further progress il
economy and accommodation, and it is sal,
to be the ambition of the new postmaste
general to make his department self-sustain

Some of the consumers of steel rails petit
toned the last Congress to take The tariff du-
ty of that article, with the idea of cheapening
the construction of railroads thereby. They
held the same erroneous views that certain
daily newspapers did of the duty on print
added by home producers to the cost of arti-
Giles brought from abroad. Facts ought to
convince these free-traders of their error, for
print paper is to-day made and sold as low
in the United States as anywhere in the world
and steel rails are produced as cheaply and
sold as reasonably as in any country. During
United States IL Bessemer works, and they
produced OF 1922 net tons of steel rails, being
almost ten times as many are were produced
in 1872, when the business had got fairly
started in this country. The average price of
steel rails in 1868 was $15S.5O per ton; in
1872 it was $112; in 1880 only $67.5O per
ton. No foreign producer ever sold steel rails
in the United States at less than double the
price which they now bear here, until after
we began to produce our own supply under
protective duties. Census bulletin number
shows that under protection the iron and steel
products of the United States almost doubled
from 1870 to 1880, the total product of the
latter year being 7,265,140 tons. Michigan
holds the eighth place in the rank of States
and produced 142, TIC tons against S6,679 il
1870. Shall we put out the iron and stee
furnaces of this State, dry up the salt wells
close the lumber yards, stop the factory
wheels and let our people depend upon farm
ing for support, at the dictation of British
free traders? How much will il enhance the
wages of labor to lessen the kinds of labor
pursued by our people? How much will il
increase the value of farm products to SCI
more men at raising them and reduce the
consumers of them within our borders?-

Seventy thousand persons die annually in
America from consumption, and in most
cases the disease is an inheritance. The
mortality from consumption in the Northern
and Eastern States reaches very large PEI

becoming a very grave question among
medical men.
