to efforts of the peasants to secure

practically helpless and on the de-

armed band of peasants Several men
were killed on both sides.
There has been a fatal encounter al

Second Glass Mail Matter
Is to Be Given Investigation

Washington, July s.-Henry III.
Glauste, secretary of the commission
to inquire to and report to congress
it's conclusion concerning the laws
relative to second class mail matter,
today issued an announcement that
the first session will be held al the
Holland house, New York, at noon
Oct. /, 1906. The announcement in
part, follows:
The report of the postmaster gem
eral for the fiscal year ended June 80.
1905, shows that the cost of maintain
ing the entire postal service for that
year was approximately $1,000, 900,
and that the reveupe from all sources
was approximately $4,000, 900.
OF all the mail matter handled during
that year by this costly service. Sec
ond class matter constituted approxi-
mately two-thirds, while 1T yielded
but $6,1S6,647.54, or about one-twenty-
fourth of the revenue derived from
postage.
THE rates governing second class
matter are both numerous and involv-
ed and the application of them seems
to require a constant inquiry into mat
ters for which an administrative Of
flee Is not properly equipped. The
system has been repeatedly condemn
The Fargo forum and daily republican. [volume] (Fargo, N.D.) 1894-1957, 1906-07-09

ed by postmaster generals as being
confusing to the publishing world as
well as to the officials of the service.
Having these facts in mind the
commission deems 1t advisable to di-
rect its inquiries especially along the
following lines.
First whether the revenue from
the second class of mail mat
ter should not be made commensurate
with the actual cost of the service
rendered in handling 1T, and whether
its classification should not accord
ingly be grounded upon practical rath-
err than ideal distinctions.
Second, in case second class mat
ter is not put upon cost paying bas-
is, what limitations should be placed
upon the matter which may properly
be embraced in that class?
Third, by what amendments of ex-
listing law may the changes which ap-
pear TO be advisable be most effective
ly brought about?
lowing to the great number OF pub
lications concerned, 1t is obviously
impracticable for the commission in
discriminateIy to extend the privi-
iege Of the hearing to individual pub
fishers. Each national organization
will be heard orally by not to exceed
three representatives designated by
the organization; and those classes 0f
publications not having regular organ
izations will be heard through persons
who may be regarded as fairly repra-
sentative
