Has Found the Way.

Nathan b. Williams. a citizen Of
Fayetteville. Ark, has found the way
to wipe out the postal deficit. establish
one cent letter postage, extend the free
rural delivery service and maintain the
present one cent a pound rate on peri
odicals, a rate which President Taft
aid Postmaster General Hitchcock are
seeking to have increased. 1t consists
In simply enforcing the law.
There Is ali old statute, passed In
1915, which gives the: postofiice n mo.
nopoly OF all mail matter. Including
packets. second class, etc. IL ali this
matter, now sent by express, were
turned over to the postoffice for; trans.
portatlon 1t would mean Il large rev.
enue. The statute has, been a dead let.
ter for many years. B 3;..t & 4.
Williams has called the attention Of
the department OF justice to the law,
and that department agrees with him.
He has seen President Taft and been
sent to Postmaster General Hitchcock
10 explain the matter. 1t would Ger.
talnly be q strange thing IL the solv.
Ing Of the present postal problems
should be brought about by an obscure
country lawyer from Arkansas.

The death Of little Viscount Chelsea
in England provided one of those
strange changes in mans fortunes
that occur very seldom. Lord Chelsea
died four days after his uncle. the
Hon. Gerald Cadognn. appeared in the
bankruptcy court.
Mr. Cado-an then told the official re-
ceiver that he had no expectations. as
bankruptcy forfeited all interest in his
fathers estates. 50 he could make no
definite proposals to his creditors
This was on Il Monday. but on the
following Friday the Hon. Gerald Cad
oSan found himself Niscount Chelsea
and heir to an income we'll over a half
million do!lnrs a year!
Twenty four hours before he sue
ceeded to the duketlom Of Portland the
present holder of the title was Il hard
up lieutenant in a regiment in India
He had been born a distant relative of
the then master of Welbeck. and there
were several healthy lives between
him and the title.
Death. however. removed in rapid
succession several persons who stood
between him and the title. and from
junior officer he rose to an English
dukedom and vast wealth.
