According to the international post
bureau, taking all the postoffices of the
world, the United States shows the
heaviest loss from the management of
it's postal affairs and Great Britain the
largest profits. Nineteen hundred and
three is the last year for which figures
for comparison are available, and for
that year we ran behind $4,320,0O0
while Great Britain showed net profit
of $22,000,000 and Russia, Germany and
France each about $14,000,000. Due to
the large and rapid increase of rural
delivery since 1908 our deficit has grown
to at least three times what it was then
and there are other reasons for our I'M
favorable showing, the principal ones
being the larger compensation we pay
employees and the extensive areas we
have to cover which are thinly populat-

that numbers of the American states are

BLOW TO PENSION LAWYERS
Bureau to Notify Veterans They
May File Claims before Notarles.

The adoption of the old executive
order regarding pensions to aged
veterans of the civil war is regarded as
certain to effect seriously the bust
ness Of pension attorneys. The pension
bureau will notify pensioners entitled
to increase that examinations are not
needed. Blank forms Will be sent on
request and atfidavits before notaries
public will cost 25 cents, where at
torneys now collect 81. Some discus
sion was even given as to the practi-
cability of amending the law, and
prohibiting attorneys, under penalty,
from receiving compensation for
assisting applicants for increase under
the age clause, but it was agreed that
"the old soldiers themselves are becom-
ing informed and will not give up the
fee unless it is necessary and the
service rendered.
President Roosevelt has been asked
to consider the question Of abolishing
some of our expensive pension agencies.
Commissioner Warner says the eighteen
existing boards can be reduced to and
can be done by executive order. The
appropriation for the eighteen agencies
is $4,000. He explained that the work
of Augusta, Me-, and Concord, N. H.
agencies might be done at the Boston
Office, that the Chicago agency could
take the place of five or six out west.
The president has promised to take the
matter up with the commissioner inn
mediately after adjournment of con-
gress. President Cleveland once issued
an order reducing the pension agencies
to nine.

LAWS TO ENCOURAGE ROAD
DRAGGING,

Both houses of the Iowa legislature
have passed bill to authorize the use
of the road drag and pay owners of
land a reasonable compensation for
using it. The bill needs but the govern
nor's signature to make it law. 1t
will go into effect as soon as it is
published in the Des Moincs Register
and Leader and Des Moines Capital.
A bill for an act to provide for i'm
proving public highways by the use Of
the Road Drag.
Be it enacted by the General AS
sembly of the State of Iowa:
Section 1. On and after the passage
of this act, the township trustees are
hereby authorized to have work done
upon the public highway by use of the
road drag to be approved by said
trustees.
Section 2. The trustees shall have
the road drag used upon the public
highway under the direction of the
road superintendent when in their
Judgment, the road would be i'm.
proved thereby. In choice of persons
to do the work preference shall be
given, other things being equal, to the
occupants of the land AUDITING upon the
road at the point where the work is to be
done, provided that when there is more
than one such occupants, the superin-
tendent may decide to which the
preference shall be given. Reasonable
compensation shall be allowed for such
work, but in no case shall it exceed fifty
cents per mile for each time same is
dragged; and there shall not be ex.
pended therefor more than five $500
per mile for any mile on which sale
work is done during any one year.
Section 3. This act, being of i'm
mediate Importance, shall be in force
from and after it's publication in the
Register and Leader, and the Des
Moines Daily Capital, newspapers
published IN Des Moines, Iowa.

PURE FOOD LAW

The Nonpariel explains the Pure Food
bill just passed by the Iowa legislature
as follows:
1t gives the state dairy and food COM
missioner authority to inspect and with
the assistance of the official chemist,
determine if any articles offered for
sale in the state to be fused for food,
confectionery, or condiment by any
man or any domestic animal" is adult
Grated or misgraded. A scale is given
by which to determine if any foods are
adulterated, and particular attention is
devoted to candies and chocolates. The
commissioner and his representatives
are empowered to purchase and analyze
foods, and when adulterated goods are
found the local county attorneys are
required to conduct prosecutions, which
may be before justices of the peace, but
if the county attorney refuses the mayor
may take the matter in hand. Punish
ment for violation of the law is a fine of
$1OO.
There is one exemption in the bill,
which was inserted at the urgent re-
quest of the wholesalers whose business
territory extends into adjoining states.
The provision is as follows: "Any
manufacturer, wholesaler, or jobber may
keep goods specifically set apart in his
stock for sale in other states which
which might otherwise be in violation
of the provisions of this act" 1t was
urged that this was an unfriendly act
towards the states neighbors, but the
wholesalers claimed their goods were
not adulterated enough to hurt anyhow,
and probably would be cheaper than
the genuine articles, and that if people
in other states wanted to eat imitation
foods they wanted the chance to sell to
them.
The bill goes into effect July 1, but it
is not to apply to goods purchased or
received before that date until July l.,
1907. So the dealers have year to dis
pose of adulterated goods purchased or
received before the 1st of next July.
The enactment of pure food law in
Iowa is somewhat in the nature of an
act in self defense. Some of the
neighboring states have stringent laws
Of this character, and so long as Iowa
took no action the state was made the
dumping ground for all manner of food
materials. Now Iowa steps up to the
level of her neighbors and the manu-
facturers of "doctored" foods will have
to look elsewhere for their dump.
Pure food legislation by the states is
very good so far as it goes, but should
be supplemented by national law
Congress has long delayed action on the
subject, but there is hope that some
thing may be done at this session. But
the public should be warned against
supposing that with legislation along
these lines perfected we won't go right
along falling sick and dying in the same
old way and from the same old causes.

GOOD ADVICE
AbOu, Pn,ronIzinr Home Merchant.

From the Leader.
How many thousand dollars are
sent out Of Preston county i'm
twelve months 20 purchase goods
that can be had Of our own store
keepers Not less than twenty-five
thousand dollars we should say from
the reliable information we have
from the out Of town buying in one
OF the larger towns of this great and
growing county. The legal right OF
any person to buy his goods where
he chooses is indisputable. We con
cede that it may be just, il there are
any articles in which the purchaser
can save money by buying elsewhere.
But the rule is TO the contrary. for
the ouS-of-your-town merchant in
selling you a bill OF goods makes the
most OF the sale for the very good
reason that he has no assurance
that you will ever give him another
chance to skin you. Shears, Ru-
back & Co." and Ward Monigom-
cry" have no hesitation in shearing
you because they never expect 10
see you face to face and all letters
look alike to them, and when you
send for their mammoth catalouge
OF furniture, clothing, hardware,
hollow-ware, shoes and groceries, in
answer to an advertisement you
have read in some cheap magazine
published in New York, Chicago or
Augusta, Maine, it is mailed or ex-
pressed to you and charged TO your
account and on your first order you
pay in addition TO the profits made
on the sale, the freight charges and
the cost of the catalogue, and the
goods are seconds and thirds instead
of first class goods. Some days must
be dark and dreary and in that day
of misfortune we do not write TO
Shears and Ruback" for help but
we go to our local merchant and buy
goods on credit Not only do we
do this but when we get up a dona-
ton for some poor fellow who was
crushed in the coal mines or hurt
on the railroad the first man that
we approach for liberal contribu-
ton is home our merchant. II is'the
same way when making MP the
preachers salary, repairing the
church or parsonage or building
new edifice. Preston county mer-
chants are enterprising-they send
buyers to Pittsburg, Baltimore and
New York and they buy the best the
market can afford. Competition
between them is keen and this keeps
prices at very narrow margin.
Buy at home.
