SOME OF THE REFORMS HE HOPES TO
ACCOMPLISH IN MAIL. SERVICE.


A dispatch from Washington says:
" Among the many things which Post
master General Wanamaker hopes to
accomplish before the expiration of his
term are foreign postal card with
stamped coupon attached for prepaid
reply; duplex house letter-boxes, in one
side of which the postman can deliver
his mail while the householder can
put his letters in the other; an extend
ed and ultimately universal free deliv-
cry; a reform in the present abuse Of
the penalty frank, whereby more than
eight million dollars worth of the most
laborious mail carrying is done for
nothing; an alteration in the law which
now permits paper-covered "serial
novels to be sent at one-eghth the
legitimate rate; based upon these two
reforms, a reduction of letter postage
to one cent an ounce, and a resulting
change, in a few years, of the present
annual deficit OF five million dollars
into surplus of fourteen; the crea-
ton of postal banking system, the
deposits, estimated at five hundred
millions, to be re deposited in National
local banks, as preferred liabilities, and
TO be employed in Government real
estate and similar solid investments;
and the postal telegraph system" We
rather guess Mr.. Wanamaker has bit
ten off more than he can chew during
his term of office.
