Anindignation meeting was held at
the ,CaldwelPs run school house last
night, to protest against the miserable
condition OF Twonty-ninth street be-
tween the lime and cement works and
the toll gate. Some farmers present
suggested that perhaps the county
might take care Of the road, even though
it is in the city limits. Several farmers
have frequently gone ont around by
tho Intirmary to Elm Grove to get into
town, rather than attempt to pass those
three or four squares OF bad road. The
place, besides being annoying, is danger
Gus, and the city may havo a suit for
damages on her hands some day.

EXTENDING FREE DELIVERY.

TWAS recommended that the free de-
livery system DO extended to all cities
oil 5,VOO or over. 1t is the idea OF all
connected with the postoflice depart
ment that the line of true progress is in
the direction OF extending freo delivery
rs widely as possible. In this Wow It
was recommended that a more thor
9uSh test OF rural free delivery be made.
recently some experiments OH: this line
were made, and the result so far as it
went was satisfactory. II was the idea
OF tho gentlemen who met at Washing
Ion last week that the matter ought to
ue pursued farther and longer, with a
VIEW to letting the people become ac-
QGainted with its merits.
IL was also recommended that in
aemn'ly be given on registered letters
70 the amount OF SO. As it is now il a
isSistered letter should be burnt or
stolen tho loss is the scnder's, vet there
arc insurance companies which insure
PACKAGES in transmission by mail for
Aye cents. Tho idea ofthe postmasters'
convention was that ii an outside con-
. Tern could afford to insure mail matter
'lc government ought to.
