tor next year show that the postoffice
department promises fair to pay its
own way. The mail service comes
nearer to the people than any other
branch OF the government, for 1t
reaches every home as well as shops
and Offices. 1t costs lot of money.
Mr.. Hitchcock asks for $3.50. 1888 ,943.
and the appropriation for the depart
ment always is set forth In the ex.
ipenditures for each year. but the earn.
,lngs from the mails bring back the
outlay to the treasury. This business
Is not reported in the current daily
statement of the treasury which set
forth only the deficit paid. This
amounted last year to $17,000.0 900, and
will be $6,000,000 less for the current
twelve months. while 1t Is predicted
THAT 1t will disappear in the next
fiscal year. The department gets no
pay for the vast tons of matter which
it carries for other branches OF the
government. II 1t did the offset
against the deficit would be very
large. The rent of Offices in Wash.

Speaking of this proposal. Mr., Baker
said that 1t was really surprising how
many men there were In the west who
thought that this method furnished
the solution Of the perpetual perplex,
ing question as to what disposition to
make of our ex-presidents.
"On It's face the proposition is Ger.
tainly a plausible one. It stands TO
reason that after a man has been
president for four or eight years he
knows the problems and difficulties
which confront the man at the helm
of the ship of state better than does
his successor. If the eXpresidents
could be made advisory members OF

there should be a change in the ad.
