OPPOSE PARCELS POST PLAN
Merchants Charge That Mail Or
der Houses Influence Lesis-
Iation.

The Merchants League of America is
the name of new organization which
has Just established headquarters at No
$50 Broadway, New York. The litera-
ture of the league states that its object
is to defeat parcels post legislation by
Congress, which, it claims, is being
fostered by mail order houses. The New
York office is in charge of E. s. Luther,
the secretary of the league. Discussing
the parcels post, Mr.. Luther said:
1.-THE smaller the merchants, the
smaller the jobber, and the smaller the
manufactures the more vitality is he af-
fected by the parcels post plan advanced
by the catalogue mail order interests,
for it's establishment by Congress would
enable the big corporate houses to COM
pletely undersell the small merchants
and drive them out of business. This
would mean calamity to thousands of
communities, closing up small shops,
throwing employees out of work, can
facturers, cutting down the business of
local banks, reducing the advertising in
local newspapers, and depreciating
property values in the smaller communi-
ties. And all for the unfair enrichment
of the few men controlling the catalogue
mail order business of the country, who
desire to have the Government deliver
their sales at ruinously low prices.
1.-The establishment of domestic par
GELS post means the multiplying by many
times of the already enormous annual
deficit of the Post Office Department, a
deficit which increased from less than
So 900 900 in 1902 to more than $l4,000,-
600 for the fiscal year 1905. For the fis-
cal year ended June 30, 1905, it is
believed the deficit will exceed $15 $780,
900, while competent authorities figure
that under domestic parcels post the
annual deficit would reach an annual
total of S15,000,000.

The Edge of Winter.

Now winter spurs the tagging year
And brings at dusk sharp, clean chill;
Stark trees lean toward fast deepening
skies
From out the shadows of the hill.
Quick days are these and drowsy nights
With open fires and winter cheer
Prophetic of the Holidays;
The dying of another year.

a Sub stitute.

Little Helen. aged four, was in a
frightful predicament. The nurse, car
rying the cherished two-weeks-old baby
up and down before the house, had
paused to show the new infant to the
bishop, who had asked to look at it.
And then the tall, grave bishop, of whom
Helen stood greatly in awe, had unex-
pectedly asked the little girl to give him
the baby.
How in the world to refuse a request
made by such an awe-inspiring person
as the bishop the child did not know.
But presently she wrinkled her small
countenance shrewdly. moved closer to
the petitioner, and said, ingratingly, an
