: Australian Government TeIe,
graph and Its Low Rates.

The statistics On which the Australian
postmast ergeneral sfounded his tele.
graph rates shoVed copolusiveIy two
things, that the faculties already sup
piled in Australia to the public for. the
use both of telegraph and telephone far
exceeded those supplied, either by
government or by private enterprise,
in any country of Europe or America in
proportion to the number OF the popu-
1ation; and further that the charges for
these services were much lower in Aus
tralia than in any of those countries.
They show that both the post-ofices and
telegraph stations the people of the
young commonwealth we're far better
provided for than either in England or
America, and, apparently as a conse-
quence, that they made more use of the
conveniences,, enabling ali telegraph
rates to be reduced to a point far below
those charged elsewhere without any
loss to the revenue. The new common
wealth provided for in the act illustrate
the truth of bis boast. For city mes
sages, which includes suburban area of
a radius of 10 miles beyond the city
limits, the rate is IL cents for messages
OF ten words and the address; for mes
sages of the same length to any point
within the state,-and the states are
generally very much larger than any
American state,-the charge is Is cents,
while for similar messages to any station
within the common wealth.-and from
Rockhampton, in Queensland, to Perth,
in West Australia, the distance of wire
is moro than 1850 miles,-the uniform
charge is "a cents. It is calculated, on
the basis OF past experience, that these
rates will return revenue sufficient to
pay operating expenses of every kind, in.
Guiding the cost of maintenance, and in
addition interest on the original expense
OF construction, amounting to fully
$18,O0O,OO0. This apparent anomaly;
wien compared with American expert.
ence, is at least in part explained by the
fact that Australians send more than
twice as many messages over the lines
at the lower rates as Americans do al
the present charges, and that where
every post-of6ce is also telegraph sta.
ton, and every country postmaster g
telegraph operator, the cost is greatly re.
duced.-From "The First Parliament oil
