One Of the things the Democratic party
was going to do when it got into Office was
toshow the country that 1t knew how 10
conduct the public business as successfully
as It ever had been conducted. That party
has been in national control for eighteen
months. In addition to Its own capaDlIl-

OF delivery in San Francisco from the hour
OF mailing in New York. The department
had the confidence OF the people, and the
express companies complained that it took
their business. Under the present re-
gime the express companies arc in a fair
way to more than recover their lost ground.
Reform is doing 1t.
