FOR POSTAL TELEGRAPH.

Favor of u.

Congressman Smith Makes Speech in
Favor of It.
The idea of q postal telegraph has a
warm advocate in Samuel w. Smith,
member of congress from Michigan,
who in a carefully prepared speech in
the house insisted that if the govern
ment would undertake such a system
the deficit in the postal department
would be almost wiped out.
1--WE should" he said, have a first
class postal telegraph in the United
States in connection with u splendid
postal facilities, and the rates can be
reduced at least one-half, leaving a
sufficient amount to dispose of the de-
fcit and have money left to extend the
rural service to practically every home
and pay the city and rural carriers a
compensation fitting their services and
experiences"
Wherever the postal telegraph has
been adopted, according to Mr.. Smith,
It has at once been followed by a re-
1uction in price and by an increase in
the number and kinds of messages.
Mr.. Smith is authority for the state
nent that "the Western Union octopus
n one year declared dividends which
reached the astonishing sum of Ala per
cent"
