Rural Retailers Most Influ-

Against innovation.
Advocates Say Country
Towns and Farmers

The amount OF antagonism which has
been stirred up BY the parcels post pro-
posal is causing remark. il now de-
vclops that there is an alliance Of tho
express companies, the big associations
OF retail merchants OF the country, and
the American Protective Tariff League,
I'm opposition TO the establishment Of
parcels post.
Postmaster General Meyer has been
assured that the President is with him
In his demand for the system. Il is the
opinion Of the Postmaster General that
no more defense need be made OF the
proposition than was required for the
railroad when its Introduction was first
undertaken.
If quicker better. and cheaper trans
portstion was good thing 100 years
ago, and justified the great canal-build-
ing enterprises OF that time, Il ought
10 be good now. II il was a good thing
sixty years ago. and justified railroad
building in the face Of much opposition
among people who seriously feared it
would disarrange business adjustments.
T. is good thing now. That is about
al the argument the Postmaster Cen
c~al thinks is necessary.
The advocates of the measure think
most Of the things urged against the
parcels post are erroneous and mislead-
ing. FhCy say tuat the express COM
Tgnies represent the most serious oppo-

Tho express companies certainly seem
Justified in their opposition. 1t would
practically destroy their business
which is Immensely profitable. The ex-
per.euce Of Continental and British
countries S pointed 10 as evidence that
the parcels post would not ruin the
business OF the country town, and Ike
wise would not harm the farmer
The advocates Of parcels post say
they are not going to hurry il. They
expect IL VIII take time. and they ara
willing TO wait The flood Of protests
that has come in from all sections
proves how determined Is the opposition
at present People who have studied
somewhat the real workings Of the sys-
tenn in other countries smile at many
Of toe arguments that are presented in
opposition.
Farmers especially are strong in petit
Tonlng against parcels post, and their
petitions generally bring "a smile to the
faces ul people who think they know
that the farmer. OF all men. certainly
has only one interest in the mattCr-aud
iE@t interest is to secure the cheapest
and best transportation. as near 10 his

tho protests that have come i'm by the
hundreds and thousands, that farmers
are only second TO the country mer-
chan,s i'm conviction that the parcels
