THE PARCELS POST FIGHT.

One of the struggles of the present
congress may be over the enactment
of some law designed to give the
postoffice department power to es-
tablish a parcels post service
throughout the country. The
measure will be promoted by the
big mail order grafters, the little
mail order grafters and by every in
terest that would like to deal with
the ruralite, yet has no desire to
meet him personally in the transac-
tion for some reason or other. The
measure will be opposed by the re-
tailers' organizations the country
over, by the commercial bodies of
the smaller cities and good sized viii
lagos and by all who believe that the
preservation of the small town is
good thing for the nation.
But the enactment Of a parcels
post law will surely be a stagger-
ing blow to the prosperity of the
small tradesman throughout the
length and breadth of the land. It
will do tenfold more than has the
establishment of rural free delivery
toward the benefit of a few large
centralized mail order plants in Chi
cago. The small dealer can not
take advantage of it as can his man.
moth competitor.
And with adversely to the retailer
comes adversely to the smaller town.
The life of town is it's business
hours. They precede the railroads
and the manufacturing industries.
Should they ever find it necessary to
go out of business, the towns where
they held forth, will too, go or de-
teriorate.
