would not be as well and as economi-
cally served as at present. This is
disproved by the facts regarding gov
eminent management of railroads in
Europe and by our own postal system.
The frauds uncovered last summer
in the postal department at Washing
ton were insignificant as compared
with the vast volume Of the business
of the whole department. They were
exploited in the public press far beyond
their intrinsic Importance by the ex-
press companies and other interests
whose advantage it is to discredit and
limit as such as possible the postal de-
partment and to prevent the extension
of it's privileges to other classes of car
rying and the reduction of rates. 1t is
simply fact beyond reasonable dis
pute that the postal department is far
more efficiently and honestly man
aged than the war or navy departments
and it is just the closer public interest
in its efficiency which makes it so. If
an army post or navy-yard is mis-
managed the public is only concerned
by the financial loss, but IL postal facil-
titles are poor at any point the members
of congress and the postal authorities
hear quickly from the suffering public,
and remedies are applied. The same
immediateness of public interest would
be involved in the management of rail-
roads, telegraphs and telephones.
Abuses which the public now suffer ST.
lently because they know the useless
ness of complaint. would raise a riot
IL the management was in the hands
Of officials elected by the people, and
the wrongs would soon be righted."
