REDUCED POSTAL RATES.
The Volume OF Bn>ine.S Shown to In.
crease rs Postage Becomes Cheaper.

The effect of the reduction Of the rates Of pos
tage and the unit of weight, as shown by the
figures recently prepared at the Post Office
department, has been what the advocates
OF cheap postage always claimed, an increase
in the volume of mail matter, which has bal
anced the reduction in the receipts This Is
shown in a very interesting way. The reduc-
ton OF postage from three cents to two cents
Went into effect in 1883, and up to that time
tue sales of postal cards had annually in
creased by an amount that was double the In
crease In the sales OF postage stamps and
stamped envelopes. Postal cards were first
introduced under the act OF June Sth. 1872, the
issue beginning on the 1st OF May, 1873 and
amounting for the months OF May and June of
that year 10 81 ,U9i 900 cards. The number OF
cards issued during the year ended June 30,
1874, was 81 ,UI9,UOO, and Tor the succeed
ing year 1O1 ,6l6,OUO, all increase OF 1915
per cent. The inciease for the year ended
June 3Oth, 1875, over the preceding year was
at the rate of 40 per cent. Tor 1877
1918 per cent, for 1873 Is per cent,
Tor 1879, 1915 per cent; Tor 1850, 22.SO per
cent; Tor 1881, 1920 per cent; Tor 1882, 1890
per cent, and ior 1888, 1.97 per cent. During
cards, in 1855 the humber fell OFT to $40 mil
lion and last year the sales reached 500 mil
hon During the past year, as shown by the
special count for the month OF June recently
made there was only an increase in the mum.
Der OF pOsta!s sold of five per cent, which shows
that the Use OF the postal card has received q
tie same direction, which 10 that the increase
i'll tine number OF circulars mailed was ONLY
three per cent. As business has been good
throughout the country, the figures would
usually show that there was "a large increase
in the number of circulars issued, but the
increase oil twenty-one per cent in letters
and hfty-n1ne per cent in scaled packages
points TO the conclusion that the reduction
in the rate OF postage and the increase in the
unit of weight has diverted business 10 the let.
ter and sealed packages instead OF postuls and
unsealed packages. Tine rate Tor letter post;.ge
Is TWO cents an ounce and Tor unsealed pack-
ages one cent an ounce, SO that the advantages
OF these rates, especially in connection with
the fact that circulars and pOstaS do not re-
ceive the same attention, amply accounts for
the increase IN their popular use. These facts
seem 10 confirm the arguments of the ad coates
OF cheaper rates OF postage, who claimed that
there would be an Increase in the number OF
letters mailed, and that sealed matter would
he substituted for postal cards and unseaIed
circulars. The reduction In the rate OF postage
has been in operation for the past three years
and the increase i'll the weight went into effect
last year. 1t seems probable that there will be
stiil further reduction in postal rates. the ex-
perience OF the past demonstrating that the
revenues are not diminished permanently.

bakers perfecting and maintaining their
organization he made some statements

1t Is not SO long ago that the Journeyman

compelled to work sixteen, eighteen aud
