Rural Routes.

Postmaster jackson desires to call at.
tention to the practice of some patrons
OF rural delivery of placing loose coins in
their boxes each time they desire to dis.
patch letters in stead of supplying them.
selves with postage in advance OF their
needs.
This practice imposes undue hardship
on rural carriersi in removing loose coins
from boxes aud delays them on the SER
vice of their routes.
The postmaster, therefore, urgently
requests that patrons of rural deiivery
provide themselves and keep on hand
q supply of stamps consistent with and
in advance of their needs. 1t is also
very desirable that rural patrons place
in their mail boxes small detachable Guns

Not long since an illustrious
American statesman said it is easv
to critieise what others have Ia.
boured to construct.
This is probably what our town
officers think. 1 wish to state
have 40 criticism to offer on the
action of the commissioners in
putting the water supply iii a
meter basis, but heartily COM
mend the forward step taken in
this important matter. With all
consumers on meters the supply
will be ample at all times. In
fact if practicable, the meter
might be discontinued about IL rec
fourths of the year.
But the town should pay for
their own meters. It has the wa.
ter for sale and should furnish its
own measuring apparatus.
There is one of two things it
should do:
Have no minimum limit, or
stand the cost of meters.
The justice in this is apparent,
Besides citizens are not engaged
in selling water. There are other
good reasons why the town should
not impose this burden on its cit
liens,
Suppose your grocer wished to
compel you to furnish scales with
which to weigh your sugar, and
peck measures for potatoes you
buy. What would you think of
him? The same might be SAID of
the meter system employed by the
light company.
