STAR ROUTE SERVICE.
letting Mail Routes Found to Work
Mischief.

Second Assistant Postmaster Genera
Whitfield in his annual report shows the an
nusl rate of expenditure for star route ser
vice to June 80, 1889, to be s. 22s ,3S7;
number of routes, 1901; aggregate length
of routes appropriation for last fiscal year,
So 400, 600; sum expended, 81, HI 1875.
The annual rate of expenditure, July, 1889,
(under contract made during the last fiscal
year for the performance of star service
from July /, 1889, to June 80, 1893 in the
first contract section, embracing the 5 ates of
Maine. New Hampshire. Vermont, Masss-
chusetts Rhode Island, Connecticut, New
York, New Jersey, Pennsy ylvania, Delaware,
Maryland. Virginia and West Virginia is
81 800. .259 decrease from the ANIMAL rate
expenditure for the service in the same states,
june Both, 1889, of SIS, 1876, representing
a saving of $50 664 for the ensuing contract
term
Whitfield sa, that in the whole system of
adv rising and awarding the star service,
there is room for decided improvement
Under the present system the competition
for the postal service becomes very close.
Bids in large numbers, on every route, are
each year submitted by professional bidders,
who bid for but do not carry the mails, and
who expect profit in sub letting. at rates
vet lower. TO Otnefs VINO nOt lnIrqeueutiy
are unsuccessful local bidders for the same
routes. Under such competition the awards
are frequently made at rate so low a. to
prevent sub letting at profit, but the bidder
willfully fails to assume the service, trusting
in the adjustment with the auditor and the
post office department to diminish or COM
promise his financial loss and thereby meas
ureably avoid the penalties prescribed by the
law governing such matters. Since the be-
ginning of the present contract term in the
eastern section, July l, 1889, such bidders
have failed in unprecedented numbers and
the seriousness of this matter demands
prompt and effectual measures.
While this competitiun among professional
bidders has secured to the government ex-
ceedingly cheasrates, it cannot truthfully be
said to have tended to the improvement of
the service. Whitfield recommends the ap-
point ment of commission to carefully con-
slider the matter, and recommends the needed
revision aud changes in the existing laws and
regulations as may tend to make the carry
! ing of mails under the star route system
/ equitable alike to the government and con
! tractor, and relieve il from the evils and
! iniquities with which it is burdened. Gen
! Whitfield heartily concurs in the recommen
dation of the general superintendent of the
railway mail service for a provision for the
families of postal clerks killed while OF
duty.

GARDINER.
A Few Good Words For Our City
Union Thanksgiving Services-Ep-
worth Chinese Are Coming
Other News Around Town.

GARDNER, Nov. 24.-The Industrial Jour
nal, published in Bangor, has an excellent
article on Gardiner industries this week. and
among other good things: The city of Gard
iner is noted for its big paper mills, lumber
mills. foundries and machine shops. and as a
manu- featuring and trade centre its growth il
solid and constant. The city of Hallowell 10
only four miles up river, Augusta is only six
miles away, and this trio of Kennebec cities
all in close proximity to each other affords
excellent local markets to the farmers Of
Kennebec county. Gardirer. being tle
lowest down on the river, rather excels in
its privileges of shipping and receiving
heavy freight by water. The Cobbosseecon-
tee stream, which is fed by 81 lakes and
ponds, affords Gardiner numerous valuable
and constant water powers, and the utilizing
of these powers more and more from year to
year has kept the city in constantly growing
condition. and the end is rot yet in that re-
spect. Other industries not dependent on
water power have come in at the same time
and this together with the large ice business
of the Kennebec has made Gardiner one Of
the most thriving cities in the state and its
prospect for constant future growth was
never better than at the present time.
The Ladies' Aid Society of the Randolph
Methodist church. have decided to hold their
fair on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings
Dec. 18th and 18th. and il now promises to
