 Mayor Gaynor's letter In which he definitely refused to accept the Demo- cratic nomination for governor came as a complete surprise to the delegates.

Their demand for increased pay was re-
fused by a narrow majority in the house
of representatives and designations have
been increasing rapidly on account of the
unprohtableness of the work. But, on
the whole, the carriers are anxious to
maintain their present position, trusting
to the future for better pay The maxi
mum salary OF a rural carrier is $500 a
year. which is paid for a route "a miles
long, or longer. For routes OF less than
"a miles in length the pay is decreased
on a scale of two-mile graduations, down
to the minimum of six to eight miles
at 1896 year.
The rural letter carriers are we'll or
ganized and have excellent machinery
for making their opinions known to the
members of congress. They will oppose
the proposed contract system on sew
eral grounds. They declare that such a
wholesale expansion of the star route
system. which has been greatly dimin-
shed by the rise of the rural free de-
livery service, would lead to graft OF
enormous proportions. In support Of this
they cite the famous star route frauds
of 80 years ago and the vast number OF
small instances of star route grating or
Of star route failure to give good serv-
ice.
They assert that a merchant in the

The RURAL MAIL SERVICE

To the 1000 rural letter carriers of the
United States legal holiday is not mere
ly holiday-it is also a day for meet
ing together in county, district and state
associations. Tomorrow will be indie
pendence Day and in five states the rural
letter carriers associations will hold state
conventions, while scores of county and
district conventions will be held. The
state conventions will meet tomorrow In
Colorado at Denver, in Tennessee at
Nashville, in Georgia at Rome, in North
Carolina at Raleigh and in South Caro-
lima at Newberry. P. V. DeGraw. fourth
assistant postmas ter general, will attend
the North Carolina convention. Memo
rial Day, Thanksgiving Day. and such
other holidays as the postmaster general
may decree as days of rest for the rural
letter carrier are utilized for the purposes
of meeting in associations for the ad-
vancement Of mutual interests.
At the FIVE state conventions tomorrow
a question OF tremendous Importance will
be discussed. The very existence Of the
rural free delivery service, as now con-
stituted, is at stake. A powerful party at
Washington, said to have the backing of
influential men in the postofice depart
ment and certainly having strong support
in congress, proposes to place the rural
free delivery of mail on the contract
basis. That is to say. that the govern
ment will make a contract for the de-
livery of mail on each rural route, and
the contractor will be responsible to the
government. The rural letter carrier then
will be no longer an oficer Of the gov
eminent but a man hired by local
contractor He no longer will serve as
the sworn officer of the government and
receive a stipulated salary from the post
Office department, but he will be the
agent of the contractor and will be hired
at whatever price he may be able to
get In short, 1t is proposed that the
government retire from the direct control
OF the rural mail service, and place the
service on the contract basis, just as
the star mail routes now are, and al
ways have been. The advantage sought
to be obtained is the great saving
in the cost of the service that would
result
Naturally, the rural letter carriers are
opposed to the proposed change. for 1t
means that they will go out Of business.
