sought Congress as a body ald
Congressman as individuals to enact
a measure which will not only make
the Postal Establishment a self sup

a source OF revenue to the Govern
ment. There are over thirty thous-
and rural route employees tramping
the country with small packages OF
letters and papers. This year a few
dollars added to the salary OF each
will increase the expense of rural
mail delivery about three millions Of

The Increase in Population.

In an address delivered at the con.
ference of governors in Washington
the prediction was made that the
United States will in 1850 have a
population of more than 00,000,'
900. This was based on an annual
increase of about " per cent, plus
an average annual immigration Of
100000.
There is no question as to the
diminishing rate of natural increase
but if the present population is S5,.
600, 900 there will certainly be added
to it more than As, 900, 900 in the
next forty-two years, unless natural
growth is stopped altogether, and
that is not probable. There will be
an increase in that time of quite 90,
100000 from immigration, and it is
