What Hitchcock does instead is TO
pat forth what he thinks is a threat
and a bribe. but what in reality is
simply a Cheap and nasty bluff.
He breaches economy and bemoans
the statistics that show a profit of
$50, GOO 900 on letter postage. whereas
the carriage of periodical and other
printed matter and merchandise costs
the government sos, 100000 more than
il receives.
And H~itchcock's recommendation Is
not to increase receipts by the installa-
ton of a parcels post that would free
the country from the annua pillage Of
the express companies, not abolition OF
the outrageous abuses Of the ranking
privilege; not further revision and
more rigid inspection OF the eXtrava-
giant and frequently dishonest con-
tracts with the railroads and steam

Three or four years ago he said.
II purchased through a mar named
Greene, 100 acres for myself and 120
acres for my wife, the claims being
ten miles from the Cunningham
group. These claims have cost me
$4,000 each. They are in Anthracite
