RURAL FREE DELIVERY.
4 Short Sketch Of Its History and Development
Ill is Soon to be introduced in Congress-
man BurIegh's District.
BY WALTER D. sTINsoN, POSTMASTER AT AUGUSTA MAINE

soon after Congressman Burleigh
was elected to the present term, his at
tentlon was called to rural free de-
livery. Always alert, progressive, and
personally looking after the interests
of his constituency, he was convinced
that its introduction into Maine would
De a great assistance in the building
up of the State as well as convent
cnce to the people, and he commenced
a study of the problem involved.
With the immense amount of per
sonal work that Governor Burleigh
gives to the business of his district, it
was hardly possible for him to make
as close a study as he desired of the
subject, and he cid this office the
honor to invite it to study up certain
details upon which he might present
his claims to the postoffice department
1t is impossible a the present time
to make public statement of the sue
cess which has attended Congressman
Burleigh's efforts. but it is not betray-
ing any confidence to state that his
personal work has proved most sue
cessful. and that at an early date there
will be experimental routes es-
tablishcd within the third district. and
this has been done almost entirely by
the congressman's work and personal
attention to this matter.
The national grange has in the
hands of the legislative committee
nine subjects which, as a body, they
are trying to have appropriate laws
passed upon. These embrace postal
savings banks. pure food laws, rural
free mail delivery. interstate COM
merce, the Nicaraguan canal. preVen-
ton of pooling by railroads. investiga-
ton Of foreign trade, election Of sena-
tors by popular vote. and national ar
bitration.
OF all these subjects, none has re
ceived the consideration by the grange
which the question Of rural free de-
livery has. In every part of the
United States petitions are formulated

nearly self-sustainng than city free
delivery as established in many of
the smaller cities under authority of
Congress. 1t was thus made evident
that the general success of rural free
delivery could only be a question of
time. TO no two persons living in
America is the success of the success

and his able, energetic, and progress
sive first assistant, Gen. Perry S.
Heath. The latter has had the direct
charge of this great undertaking under
the present administration. and what
he has done with it can be told in a
very few words.
At the time that he entered his office
as first assistant in March, 1897, the
operation of the free delivery had at
tracted 50 little attention that it was
almost with surprise that he person.
ally learned that such an experiment
was in progress and was allowed
$4,000 for continued test. Immediately
interested in the undertaking, he COM
menced an exhaustive search and
study OF the reports on file, which led
to his conclusion that great possibili-
