FREE MAIL DELIVERY.
An Organized Effort Among Farmers to
Secure Important Concessions
from the Next Congress.

NEW YORK, Oct. 19.-An organized effort
is under way among farmers to secure from
congress free mail delivery in country
towns. The Farmers Alliance, Patrons of
Husbandry aud other orders are assisting
III the matter. Petitions to congress for
free delivery are being circulated in ma2y
parts Of the country. Farmers assert that
daily mail delivery at their door viii add
perceptibly to the money value of their
farms. and viii DE worth still more because
it viii keep them in touch with the markets
aud the outside world anC rob farm life of
its isolation and monotony.
In the American AgriculturiSt for No
vember Postmaster-General Wanamaker
states definitely for the first time that the
experiment made by the postofice depart
ment for free delivery in the farming dis
trlcts, shows that the increase of revenue
more than pays all the increased expense.
He believed that universal free delivery
would therefore be self-sustainirg MIR.
Wanamaker's article also contains this
statement of the case:
while the postal service keeps pace
with the growth of the towns. the farmers,
quarrymen, blacksmitrs. millers and arti-
sans, all paving the regulation rates of
postage, are left to get their mail as best
they can from the poStoffice in the village
or at the railway station.
In q hamlet of 100 houses. perhaps sixty
persons from the village and yicinage make
daily pilgrimage of a distance Of from
one block to two miles from their home to
the postoffice, to find out whether there is
any mail or rot; and hundred more per
sons within the circle of the Office do not
ind it convenient to 90 to the postofiice
oftener than once week. One hundred or
more persons each day, in all weathers, are
making trips to the pOstoffice, often at

rate on uncompressed cotton. The effect of
this was to enable them TO take the maxi
mum rate allowed and to throw on the
shipper an additional charge of 10 cents on
the 100 pounds for COMPRISING at the gulf
ports, besides the charges for drayase, thus
again making the maximum charges on cot
ton to the gulf ports 90 cents on the 100
pounds, being 5 cents higher than the
former maximum railroad rates aud 10
cents on the 100 pounds higher than our
maximum rates, and proportionally q higher
through rate 10 Eastern and foreign ports.
To meet and correct this, we this day is
sue 4 circular amending our cotton tariff
providing that shipments of cotton made
from points where there are no congresses
TO points in Texas, the rate on uncom-
pressed cotton shall be the same Us that
prescribed in our commodity tariff No. 6
for compressed cotton. This also is in
tended 10 preserve TO shippers our rate as
first made; and it is thus seen that we have
in no case retaliated on what we believed to
be the unfair and unjust action of the
freight agents, but that we are simply en-
deavorlpg to secure to shippers the rate we
first eSta blished on cotton, and these facts
we think show that we made 10 cut of rates
by our cotton tariff effective October -, as
you charge.
Now, after, as we understand. the ST.
Louis meeting of freight agents had agreed
to continue to pay compressed charges On
cotton to be carried by the railroads beyond
the boundaries of Texas, and had agreed to
reduce the freight rates , cents on the 100
pounds, we understand they have made
still further reduction of 0cents on the 100
pounds on cotton going into other states by
railroads, on the pretense that this is neces-
sary 10 enable them TO meet 4 cut of rates
by the Texas commission, and to preserve
the proper differental between shipments
overland and by water TO New York and
Boston.
We think it was bad enough to have re-
sorted to the methods we have described to
defeat the rates on cotton which had been
established by the commission, but the
statement resorted to to justify that action
is as much worse as an untrue statement
can make worse an act of bad faith We
have a right to use the words bad faith
because while under the letter of our tariff
the freight agents could take the two steps
which they did take 10 defeat our rates, in
order 70 do those things they had to disre-
gard their former practice on the subject of
COMPRISING, and also the clear understand
ing of the commission. based on their own
statements on the same subject.
