IDAHO


When the third assistant postmaster
general makes his annual report to his
chief, the introduction reads like the
list Of titles Of an Oriental potentate.
for It summarizes the subjects with
which that ONCE has to do. Here are
just few of them: The classification
Of domestic mail-matter, including the
determination OF the admissibility Of
publications to the second-class rates,
the hearing of cases involving the
withdrawal Of those rates, use Of pen
atty envelopes. and the ranking priv
ilege, questions involving limit Of
weight, the financial system--and this
in itself Is an enormous business-the
supervision of the manufacture OF
stamps. stamp books. stamped envel-
Opes. newspaper wrappers and postal
cards. money-order and registry sys-
tom. This year the deficit of the de-
partment is the largest yet-nearly
UT 1000. 900. The most OF the increase
over last year is due to the action Of
congress in raising the salaries of post
masters and other employees of the de-
partment and the rest to the extension
Of postal facilities. The constant study
to bring the department into closer
touch with the people, remarks the
Youths Companion. Is shown in nu.
merous little things mentioned in the
report. for example. new postal cards.

side; changes in stamped envelopes
which will permit choice Of paper by
the purchaser, and the printing Of ad
vertising matter upon them: permits
sion to perforate postage stamps for
purposes Of Identification. This has
hitherto been withheld, but is granted
now partly because so many office boys
steal stamps-a curious commentary
on the class of boys who Are entering
business.
