Postage Stamps OF Iooz

Prom the Boston Evening Transcript.
As soon as the die proof of TIN
first of the new series of United
States postnge stamps is approved
BY the Postmaster General platei
will he made and the stamp issned
to the public. Its denomination u
10 cents; benjamin Harrison oeen
pies the center Of the field.
This will be the first l3.cen
stamp ever issued by the United
States. Up 10 1879 q stamp of th'
value of 7 ccuts had been IN ns'
10 years, but was discontinued
when the rate of foreign postage
was reduced 10 cents. The new
Harrison stamp will be little USED
ia domestic mails. Its issuance Is
the outgrowth Of the Increased
foreign registration service covering
as il will the postage aud reglstrn
tion fee upon letter weighing
one half ounce anywhere within
the limits of the postal union,
which now includes practically all
the organized nations of the world.
Stamp experts who have exam
ined the drawing for the new
stamp say it will be one of the
finest specimens of II postage stamp
ever produced, not excepting the
famous Columbian series aud the
Pan American set. In addition
10 the usuaI United States Of
America" aud Postage Thirteen
Cents" the inscription Series of
1902, together with Harrison
aud figures giving the date of
birth aud death, appear upon the
design. The porirait was selected
by Mrs. Harrison and is said to
have been the late Presidents
favOrite.
When the p0stoilicc Department;
ordered this new series it requested
the Treasury TO make special efforts
to provide stamps that should he
not only distinctive but. indicative
Of the progress in the engavers'
art in which the United States has
become famous. The bureau of
engraving aud printing has entered
into the spirit of the OCCASION and
will produce the best work of
which II is capable. After the
l3.cent stamp will come the new
Accent. This will not continue to
bear the familiar features of Presi'
dent Lincoln, but those Of Gen
Grant. These two Presidents
change places; Grant appears on
the 4 aud Lincoln will later have
place On the 3. There will be

Scent stamp, disappears entirely |
from the series. His place will be
taken upon the stamp of that de-
