United States will not have to meet
that question now, because OF the
practical difficulties In the way OF
administering the telegraph system
as part OF the postoffice system. Un-
der the military rule which Is TO
be established for the entire

will be military ones. The
signal service corps will haye charge
Of that. These lines are in bad con-
dItlon. To repair them aud get the
system in working order will require

ployments are to be turned over to

under actual administration will re-
move their misgiyings. Military re-
sponsibilIties will exist In all admin
