Express Companies as Brokers.

Washington, Dec. PA delegation of
bankers, representing the American
Bankers Association, and an attorney,
representing the American Express
Company, have had a hearing before
Attorney General Griggs. The hearing
was held on account of the complaint
of the Bankers Association that the
express company is practically ev; ding
the recent decision of the Commiss oner
o: Internal Revenue. The bankers rep
resented that since the commissioner
declared that express companies SELL
ing foreign exchange and letters of
credit were liable to pay taxes as brok-
ers at each office where such business
is conducted, the American Company
has transferred all it's foreign exchange
business to a few offices. This, the
bankers say, avoids the payment of
large amount of taxes.
The attorney for the express COM
pany argued that it had the right to
transact it's business in it's own way
as long as the laws and it's charter are
not violated Attorney General Griggs
Withheld his opinion.

Hillsgrove.

On Monday, Dec. /, the grim de-
stroyer Death visited our commune
ty and removed John II. Rogers,
an aged and highly respected citizen.
Mr.. Rogers was born Oct. 10, 1926
on the farm where he was living at
the time of his death, and has spent
nearly his entire life on the banks of
the Loyal Sock. About the year '5S
he was afflicted with palsy which
prevented his enlistment in the civil
war. He acted as enrolment officer
for Sullivan county during the war,
discharging the duties in very
commendable manner. Though suf-
fering constantly from palsy since
early manhood, Mr.. Rogers life has
been IL useful one. He was Il natural
mechanic, Il firm friend of education,
Il supporter of the Baptist church,
and a lifelong Republicans; though
unable to walk without assistance
for the past Ii years, he has voted
at every election except the last.
He was an unmarried man and
though over kind and courteous, he
showed some aversion to the fair sex
but was a great lover Of boys, and
was never so happy rs when direct
ing them in some useful occupation.
His scharactcr was without reproach
and though an invalid he possessed
marked business ability by which he
was enabled to earn for himself a
comfortable fortune, the bulk of
which he willed to his brother, Rob-
ert, and his niece Miss Anna Ives.
The funeral occurred at the Union
church on Wednesday. Rev. Frazier

Judge Lynch of Wilkes Barre
presided over our court Tuesday in
the absence of Judge Dunham who
was able to take his seat Wednesday.
The Court was opened on Monday
by Associate Judges Line and Kraus.
Alvice Dunham was appointed fore
man of the grand jury which was
discharged on Tuesday, after acting
upon four pills.
A government by the people
and for the people is exactly the
kind of government that should
own and operate all its railroads, ,tele-
graphs and all means of commune
cation the same as it operates its
postal system. The profits would
then go to the people and not to
men who have already made many
millions. The postal business last
year would have paid for itself and
had balance on hand of $l5, 900, 900
had the railroads not been doubly
paid for hauling the mail. They
set their price, what's to prevent it.
Public enterprises in country like
ours should net be conducted on
private capital with the sole purpose
of greedy gain at the public's eX-
pense, discomfort and jeopardy of life,
as has too often been shown. How
long are the people going to wait
before they push this issue to the
front with vigor:
Since the noon passenger train
has been taken off this end of the
line, the county seat finds itself sore
ly dealt with in regards to the L. S.
mail service, and judging by the
general feeling it will not take long
deliberation of the public to decide
what they propose to do about it.
The eXorbitant tribute drawn by
the railroads from the POst-office De-
partment is So, 100000 year. Half
of that amount would be an cNtrav-
agant figure. Since the weighing of
all mail matter by postmastcrs dur
ing the month of October it was
learned that the average rate paid to
the railroads for hauling the mails
was $40 per ton per hundred miles.
That is 40 cents per ton mile; think
of it. The question now arising is,
are the railroads going to make their
own prices and carry the mail when
they so please. If such be the case,
have pity on Uncle Sam. He will
have to watch out or the combines
will get him. The closed pouch SER
vice on the freight train is worse
than no service at all; no one knows
its hour of coming or going. The
stage driver whose compensation is
not commensurate with the service
he performs is now obliged to wait
at the station three or four hours at
a time waiting for his mail. We do
not know whether these conditions
are expressed in his contract or not,
but we hardly believe he will accept
the reward of ignorance.
