MONEY SAVED IN
POSTAL DEPARTMENT.

WASHINGTON, October 25.-The
report of the postal department shows
the deficit for the past year to be
smaller than it was for 1909. AS this
reduction in expense was secured
with no curtailment of the postal ia
cilities, it reflects creditably upon
the administration of Postmaster
General Hitchcock, more so as many
extensions of the service were made
The actual deficit for the fiscal year
ending June, 1910, was $11 100000
in contrast to the $176OO,OOO which
was the loss of the department for
the preceding year.

PRINTING JOB

A lively fight is pending in the Post
Office Department over the award of a
contract amounting to over four mil
lion dollars for printing return-card
stamped envelopes and wrappers, says
a late Washington paper.
Bids were called for in August, and
September 20 a single bid was opened,
but it is attacked by the allied print
ing association on the ground that the
postal officials have no right or au-
thority to enter into any further con-
tract for printing stamped envelopes
containing a return card in one cor
ner.
For two or three years the manufac-
turers of envelopes and the printing
craft have been working hard to pro-
hibit the sale of the free printed or

JOIN MEAT CLUB

WASHINGTON, March "a

suggestions for the lowering of the

just issued by the government.
A meat club" is a club in which
the members take turns providing
an animal for slaughter.

purses he has come out boldly
against the vegetarian diet and de-
clared for meat. The volume EN-
phasizes the fact that many cheaper
cuts are more nutritious than the
more expensive cuts.

THAT'S THE END

have been advised by their attor-
legal and would decide nothing if
the vote were favorable to- them.
Hence they will not stand for the
expense, as asked by the council.
Another feature of the election
plan is the demand that if an cleo
ton is held that the entire fran
chise be submitted fairly and not
a part of it as set forth in the resO-
luton adopted by the council. An
election, as planned would settle
nothing, as there would still re-
main a chance to haggle and delay
after the people had expressed
themselves, should the expression
be favorable to the admission of
the roads. The suggestion Is made
that the franchise be worked out
complete with all other provisions
agreed upon-common-use clause,
grade separation, street vacations,
damages, etc, and that then the
franchise be submitted. one fran
chise with terminal rates and the
other without. If the franchise is
granted under such conditions then
the roads would be- secure and
could go ahead with their. work.
The cher objection to this plan
is the refusal of the railroads to
further treat for a franchise to be
granted on the basis of an cleo
ton, which they consider invalid.
They say that it is solely up to the
city council and that if they con-
tinue in their attitude they are
done. At least this is true OF the
Milwaukee.
The North Coast may ask the
city council to grant it franchise
to Howard street, its former ter
minal site, without terminal rates,
on the ground that it is a purely
local corporation not engaged in in
terstate commerce.

With four cans of cocoa, part of
a batch of a number of cans bought
by himself at the auction sale of
groceries left after the big fire at
Greenough Brothers grocery store
several weeks ago, J. Marcus, a
laboring man living at 1924 Mallon

quarters this morning to complain.
All four of the cans had been
spoiled in the fire, and Marcus said
that all of the other cans, which he
had purchased at a cost of 81. were
even worse than those he had with
him, but he had thrown them away
before he thought of reporting the
case.

Main avenue, and after inspection
found that most of the canned
goods were in good condition.

of $500 per acre; that cherries and
winter apple crops attained a value
of about $500 per acre and that
from potatoes and tomatoes, crops
valued at about $500 per acre
could be reaped.
However, Kelley's chief ground
of complaint was that the defend
ant failed to irrigate his ground as
was promised him when he pur-
chased the tract, and, as a conse-
quence, his newly planted nursery
stock persisted and his "spuds"
withered away and died in the
