ing profit as to decry the schools
for the same reason. Indeed, it is
doubly foolish because, with COM
nonsense management, the post
Office would yield a profit. Especial
ly is this true Of the rural delivery
department. To see the officials
bewailing their deficit while they
send the mail cart up and down
the road empty, reminds one of the
conduct of half-witted child.
There is not a rural route in the
United States were the parcels de-
livery business would not pay the
expenses if the carriers We're per-
mitted to take charge of it. But
no, it must not be done. The ex-
press companies forbid. Incited
by the express trust the country
storekeepers also clamor against the
parce Is post, but their outcry is too
insane to he taken seriously. With
out rural delivery of parcels the
doom of the country storekeeper is
sealed past recall. What has
begun to happen to him in Kansas
will happen everywhere. The
cleo trict car and the automobile
will whirl the country purchasers
past his door to the city and no
howl that he can make to Congress
will stop them. III the end, grass

The Government remissness has
the same effect as direct grant of
a monopoly of the delivery of
parcels to the express companies in
places within easy reach of the
railroads. People living farther
away it deprives of any delivery
system whatever.
The remissness is all the more
shameful when we see the rural
mail wagon carrying nothing but
small bundles of letters and papers.
Were the carriers permitted to do
errands for country people, rs old
fashioned stagedrivers used it would
be universal blessing. Even the
right to bring a bottle of medicine
from the drugstore would often
times save a human life. But it is
not permitted. They have no such
right because this invaluable boon
to the citizens would perhaps inter-
fere with the sacred monopoly of
the express companies. The happi-
ness, the comfort, the very lives of
citizens are Of no consequence com
pared with the profits of these
privileged favorites. Is it any
wonder that taxpayers ask what
the Government is for? The COM
plant that the rural delivery service
does not pay expenses is wholly ir-
rational. In the first place, there
are a great many immensely bene-
fetal public services which do not
and ought not to be expected to
pay expenses. The Army is one
The Courts are another. The public
schools are a third. 1t is as foolish
to decry the postofiice for not yield

THE PARCELS POST

Few more important questions
are likely to come before Congress
this Winter than the parcels post.
Will our Government provide the
people of the United States with
the same facilities for the delivery
of goods and literature that the
people of other civilized countries
enjoy, or will it not? On its face,
this question may appear little
dull. We readily admit that it APP.
peals to the intelligence rather than
to the tender emotions, but for all
that, it goes down pretty near to
the root of our institutions. II
raises a lumber of auxiliary in
qniries, some of which Congressman
may find it embarrassing to answer,
if the parcels post should be post
poned again. For example, people
will be prompted to ask for what
purposes the Government exists. Is
it to serve the interests of half a
dozen express companies, or of the
American people?
The lack Of parcels post makes
citizens everywhere dependent on
the express for the delivery of all
goods which are not carried by
freight. The latter is slow and by
no means safe for valuable articles.
Existing conditions give the express
companies monopoly, and they
do not scruple to take every pos
aible advantage of it. Their charges
are exorbitant. The effect of this
grievous monopoly is exceedingly
depressing upon the internal trade
Of the country. People who would
purchase largely if delivery by post
were permitted, deprive themselves
of needed goods rather than submit
to the extortionate charges of tn.
express companies. Worse still
these companies maintain no de-
livery service at places remote from
the railroads where it is NEST need
ed.
With respect to the pt pulatiol
not centered in towns, their attitud,
is precisely that OF the dog in TIN
manager. They will not delive
parcels themselves, and they Us
every means they can command
prevent the Government from doii |
it Consequently citizens who :,
not dwell near railroad static
must make a long journey, oftt
over bad roads, for every litl
article they purchase. Nature
