POSTAL RECEIPTS OF CITIES.
Auditor Castles List Showing Where
Revenucs Have Incrensed.

Statisticians and political econ omists
maintain that evidence CT the prosperity OF
a country is found in its increased postal
receipts. They reflect better than anything
else the pulse of the people. 1t is argued
that when the people are contented they
write many letters.
Auditor Castle Of the Post Office Depart
ment has just compiled a list of the priu-
cipal cities of this country, showing .he
postal revenues for the years 1897 and 1898
With the exception of New Orleans. all

leads the list with a net increase over la ST
year of 1886, 43S.45. Chicago, its old rival
follows with net increase of $E03. 45I %
and then follow Philadelphia with s16s,.
132.61, Boston with sl34.O4011. BROOKLYN

Kansas City. Mo- showed up we'll with an
increased revenue of S92. .052.30, and Wash
1ngton, DC, led such cities as Milwaukee.
St Paul. New Orleans Rochester Newark

New Orleans, as stated above. was the
only large city 10 show a falling off In rev.
enue, 1t reporting deficit over last years
receipts of 81 ,03 .9S.
Auditor Castle is much pleased over This
excellent showing. He says IL demon
strates conclusively the era of prosperity
promised by the republican party, and ven
tUreS the assertion that the year 1899 will
show greater Increases.
1t is interesting to note the comparfson of
the postal revenues reported by the dirfc~-
ent cities While New York city leads the
country in the increase for lS9S n also
heads the list in the revenues collected In
1897 the New York office reported a fo+at
collection of 81. .s37, 7O7 SO, while In 1S,s ,h.,

"a WORKOUT SONG Now,
Auditor Castles View of Free Silver
in Minnesota.

in Minnesota.
Auditor Henry A. Castle of the Post Of
flee Department has just returned from "a
trip through Minnesota. During his stay
he acquainted himself with the political
situation. In conversation with a reporter
of The Star today, he said:
The republicans in Minnesota will turn
out in force this year and give a good big
majority for its candidates. All of the
seven representatives will be returned with
handsome maJOritieS. In the Duluth dis
trict there will be somewhat of a fight.
Judge Page Morris is running for re-elec-
tion and his predecessor, Charles A Towne,
is opposed to him. Mr.. Towne was a re-
publican UP TO the time of the free silver
agitation when he became democrat. The
democrats in Minnesota have combined
with the populists and vare: making the
fight for free silver. But that is an old
WORKOUT song now and the republicans
will have no trouble in sweeping the state.
You know We have never had a democratic
governor since 1883 and don't want any.
EX-CoEgressman John Lynn is the demo-
cratic nominee for governor, The repub-
ncans have William II. Eustis, ex-mayor of
Minneapolis He is an exceptionally bright
man and magnificent orator. The cam
paign has already opened I'M earnest and
Senator Nelson is on the stump. Before
Senator Davis left for Paris. he made one
speech and did considerable in the way of
organizing the party. By the way, the
term of Senator Davis expires this year,
but he will be PROMPTLY returned. The
people throughout the state heartily in
dorse the administration and believe in
Senator Davis plan of b holding at least
the Island of Luzon in the Philippines. The
progress of the war was entirely satisfac-
tory to the people, Jr-

If you are in the habit of doing much
sewing, do not bite off the thread Use a
pair of scissors. Apart from the fact that
biting cotton is injurious. the trick often
also results in very sore mouth When
silk thread is bitten, the danger is greater,
for it is usual to soak the thread in acetate
of lead, so the result may be very serious,
and even lead to blood poisoning.
