Opposition to tie Fast Mail Facilities
From Boston 10 Scw Orleans

The House. after the opening excr-
clses, went promptly into the committee
on the whole on the postotfice appro-
priation bill. General debate was limit
ed to an hour, Mr.. Bromwell (Rep) Of
oregon, opposed the Item Of $4,000 for
special mail facilities between Boston
and New Orleans.
This so-called fast mail, he said was
IN reality slower than the ordinary train
going South. The service was not for
tne benefit Of the business men. the real
peneflclaries being the New York daily
papers. The Government had already
zone enough for these great dailies and
was now losing thousands Of dollars an
hually III carrying them. He could not
see why this subsidy should be given
tnen: 1t was not extended to papers in
the West and other sections Of the coun-
try. A fund placed at the disposal of
the tmaster-General, TO be used for
Speclal Facilities where it would do the
most good, was preferable TO subsidies
Of this kind
MI swanson (Dem.). Of Virginia. said
me gentlemen opposing the fast mail
item were not consistent They upheld
large appropriations for facilitating de-
livery or mail in cities by bicycles, pneu-
matte tubes. ETC., yet were against civ
Ing small sum for the benefit OF the
people OF fifteen States.
An amendment, offered by Mr.. Loud
at the request Of the PostofIlce Depart
ment. was agreed TO reducing tho
amount for extension OF the free de-
livery system from $4,000 to 500. 600
that being sufficient to meet the needs
Of the department.
Mr.. Burton utep), Of Ohio, made n
point or order against the paragraph
providing for the marine free delivery
service ut Detroit shall hereafter be per-
formed by row boats instead OF steam
launch.

Electric BitterA

Electric Bitters is q medicine suit
ed Tor any season, but perhaps more
generally when the languid ex-
hausted feeling prevails, when the
liver is torpid and sluggish and the
need OF tonic and Alternative is felt.
A prompt use of this medicine has
often averted long and perhaps fatal
bilious levers. No medicine will act
more surely in counteracting and

poison. Headache. Indigestion. con-

ness enterprise is suffering in con.
