GOVERNMENT POSTAL ArFAIRs.
Bristow's Report Shows Reform and
Big Appropriation Needed.

M
Big Appropriation Needed,
Fourth Assistant Postmaster General
Bristows annual report for the fiscal
year ended June 30. 1903, says the gov
ernment has been robbed for years by
contractors and dishonest postal officials.
but that reformation is scheduled
An investigation, which is still in
progress, has shown that for ii number
OF years supplies for the free delivery
service have not been purchased with an
eye single TO the public interests" says
Mr.. Bristow, Both IN the matter of
quality and the cosf of equipment the
ruling has been individual gain. This
applies to articles furnished under regu-
lar contract, such as street collection
boxes and carriers satchels, as well as
TO those bought in the open market under
exigency privilege, which has been much
abused.
Favored contractors abetted by a
trusted but unfaithful official, have cor
rupted the public service. An early and
thorough reformation will be undertaken
along the line of service equipment with
the prospective result of improved ser
vice at reduced cost. Fraudulent con-
tracts have been abrogated. In the re-
letting of contracts honest competition
will have fair and free play"
Mr.. Bristow makes recommendations
as follows;
An appropriation to construct inspec-
tors lookouts in postofices wherever
necessary in the opinion of the Post
master General, that the interstate com
merce law be amended so as to prohibit
common carriers from aiding and abet-
ting in the green goods, lottery or any
other scheme carried on partly by mail
and partly by common carrier in viola
ton of the postal laws; that special
agents and postal inspectors be desig-
mated rurI agents. that the provision
that rura' carriers shall not be prohibit
Ell from doing an express package bust
ness be repealed; that the maximum of a
rural carrier be increased to $3.50 per
annum for route of twenty-five miles
or more in length and that law be en-
acted requiring assistant postmasters,
cashiers and other employees to give bonds
to postmasters direct and holding post
masters responsible unler their own
bonds.
The estimated expenditure for both
city and rural free delivery service dur
ing the fiscal year beginning July /, 1904,
aggregates about S47,000,00O.
There are now in operation 1896
rural free delivery routes 1t is estimat-
90 that 1920 additional routes can be es-
tablished out of the appropriation now
available, the total to be in operation or
ordered established by March l. 1904.
To maintain the service on these routes
during the fiscal year from July 1, 1904,
to June 80 1905, will require $780,

cey. He said it was jealousy on his
part which prompted the deed.
He had been attentive to Miss Hen
ninger for some time. She attended
the marriage of a sister in Mason City,
Iowa, and while there met another man,
in whom she became interested, and he
noted a difference in her manner to-
ward him. On the evening of the crime
he attended box social in company with
Miss Henninger and her sister.
When they arrived at the Henninger
home, on their return he let the sister
out and drove hurriedly on with Miss
Henninger. He spoke of her cold man
ner. She told him she could not marry
him.
This incensed him and he picked up a
monkey wrench lying in the buggy and
struck her twice. She fell to the ground
and he leaped from the buggy and made
sure she was dead. He then took the
body to a nearby field, wrapped it in the
lap robe and partly buried it in the sand.
He proceeded to Beardstown, and from
there went to Quincy, where he crossed
the river on the boat and got into Mis-
souri,. He sold his horse and buggy, then
went to Kirksville aud later to Macon
County.

the treaty was hopelessly lost, the people
of Panama rose literally as one man. Not
a shot was fired by single man the

Government. Not a life was lost In the
accomplishment Of the revolution. The Co.
