ST. PAUL LOSES S12O,OOO
A YEAR in EXCESS POSTAGE
And Much of Fhfs Vast Waste Could Easily Be Utilized
sas-zs Advertise the Attractions of the City.

2,077,750. At full weight for each let
ter this number would weight like
number Of ounces, which. at two cents

ing $41,572 in postage; the actual
weight being but 1,55S,950 ounces. at
which weight the postage would
amount to S31,179, or a waste of $1O,-
S95. In June, when the number of let
tiers amounted to 2,406,50O, each paid
for as if it were an ounce the cost in
postage amounted to $4S, $780, At the
actual weight of these letters of l.
SO4,875 ounces, the cost should be only
$S6,09f-50, making clear overpayment
on the part of the public of $12,0325O
Thus in three months more than
$4,000 has been paid for postage which
was practically a clear gift by the pub
lie. The gift is to the government and
amounts to payment on 136,701 pounds
not carried, or about sixty five tons of
mail matter. AS the government pays
by the pound for the transportation of
all classes of mail, this makes quite an
item Of expense saved to it, and which.
If the public took advantage of all the
weight 1t paid for in postage, the gov
eminent would not get.
Taking $4,000 as the average over
payment for each month of the year,
which is a conservative figure, the
amount Of money thus wasted by St
Paul in year would amount to $780,
600. This sum would nearly pay all
of the salaries in the st. Paul postal
service.
Waste Could Easily Be Utilized.
When the opportunities for advertis-
ing through the mails with this extra
quarter ounce is considered, 1t can be
seen what an opportunity is being lost
by the business houses of the city and
commercial industries generally to ad-
Vertise their own business or promote a
public interest, for each business in
terest has its own plan Of advertising
the city.
In practically every letter sent out of
the city it would be possible to insert
circular or printed slip calling atten-
ton to the attractions of the city. OF
course all this large number of letters
are not of such a nature that this could
be done, but the business houses send
out the large bulk of the first-cIass
mail and the opportunity would still
be enormous, with all private CORE
spondence disregarded.
Even If but half the available weight
paid for was taken, there would be an
opportunity to send out something like
25O tons of straight advertising matter
in the form of circulars or letters.
This, of course, is merely speculative,
as the question is how to utilize the
extra quarter ounce in each letter
used outside of that particular envel-
ope.
The figures for the whole United
States, are not available, but, taking
this city as basis, the loss to the pub
lie of the whole country certainly
amounts to millions annually.
