The Way the Privilege Has Been
Abused In England.
American legislators are not the only
ones who abuse their franking priyi-
leges. Recent history in England has
caused the London Chronicle to say:
sFranking had it's birth, honestly
enough, in 1860, in the desire to relieve
members of parliament of the expense
incurred in the discharge of their ma
tional duties, but the practice rapidly
widened until it became possible for
members to transmit their household
goods at the public charge, as the fol-
lowing extract from old postoffice rec
ords testifies: Fifteen couple of hounds
going to the king of Romans with a
free pass, two maidseryants going as
laundresses to my Lord Ambassador
Methuen, Dr. Crichton, carrying with
him a COW and divers necessaries;
three suits of clothes for some noble
mans lady at the court of Portugal.
two bales of stockings for the use Of
the ambassador to the crown of Portu-
gal, a deal case with four fitcheS of
bacon for Mr.. Pennington of Rotter-
dam
"This form of abuse died when the
postofice stable underwent a pufifica-
ton, but it speedily gave place to an
other variety. Members signed packets
of letters wholesale, gave them away
to their friends and sometimes paid
their servants wages In franked en-
velopes. In fact. they became valua.
BILE form Of currency, subject to the art
of the forger, who did roaring trade.
In It's f24,000 worth of free CORE
spondence passed through the postof-
fee.
Fifty years later the nation was
staggered to discover that the amount
had increased to f170,oGo, and strin-
gent laws were passed to mitigate the
immoral tendencies of the houses of
parliament But all was in vain until
Sir Rowland Hill managed in 1889 to
abrogate the privileges altogether
