The Foster Postal Bill

A good deal of interest is being
aroused in the bill introduced by Con-
gresham d. J. Foster of our own
state permitting the carrying of ar
cells on rural free delivery routes.
This measure is commended by the
Outlook, which says:
There is a deficit according to
Postmaster General Hitchcock of 2S
million dollars in the rural delivery
service. Under the present rates of
postage and the regulations in the
rural delivery service there will al
ways be a deficit If, for instance a
merchant desires to send four
pound package to patrons living on a
rural route extending from that mer-
chants postotlice he must pay sixty.
four cents. But he would pay sixty
four cents II he were sending the
same package to patrons living on a
rural route which starts from some
postOiIice at the other end of the
country In the interest both of equi-
table individual treatment and also OF
financial return to the government,
the matter ought to be more reason
ably adjusted. There should be at
least local rate on parcels on rural
routes starting from the same post
Office. Hence we are glad to note
that Hon. David j. Foster of carriage
of local parcels would not end in the
House of Representatives. AS every
carrier on rural route is prepared
to transport a hundred and twenty
FIVE pounds of mall yet as in point
of fact, he carries an average of not
over twenty-five pounds, the carriage
of local parcels would not entail any
additional expense to the government
The return would be all net profit
mir. Foster would establish rates
of one cent postage on parcels 81

NJ. J. Hapgood of Peru, writes the
newspapers that he purposes to be
candidate for governor. If Mr.. Hap
good can show fair support in his
home county OF Bennington, he win
be a factor in the contest. At least
he is entitled to fair treatment, and
the early attempts of the Mead liter.
AIRY bureau to ridicue Mr.. Hapgood
will not help the Rutland candidate.
20 one is obliged TO agree with all of
Mr.. Hapgoods propositions to de
mand fair treatment for him, because
his sincerity of purpose and his in
terest in better government cannot
be honestly questioned Mr.. Hap
good has offered some suggestions in
public affairs that are ahead of his
times, but it is not improbable that
he may live to see them carried out,
although he may not be the active
factor in producing these changes
Mr.. Hapgood, in common will all the
other candidates for gubernatorial
honors, will at least receive fair
treatment by this paper.-Northfeld
News
Down here in this county where
Mr. Hapgood is better known than
anywhere else we accept him for
what we esteem to be his actual
worth. We don't fool ourselves into
thinking him perfect, but we do not
refuse to recognize his good qualities
just because we don't agree with all
his notions. Mr. Hapgood is a champ
ion of economy and plain, open
straightforwardness in state govern
ment The strength of his candidacy
is evidenced by the men who are sup
porting him For instance here in
Bennington Mr. Hapgood's leading
supporter is Mr. George F. Graves
president of the First National bank
of Bennington. Mr.. Graves is a man
who does not often take an active
part in politics but his judgment is
unquestioned and his insight into
state affairs of the keenest. When
such men as he take an active inter
est in Mr.. Hapgood's candidacy we
may as well recognize the fact that
the Peru candidate is developing a
strength that will make him factor
in the June convention

third and fourth class matter OF one
cent for parcels weighing two ounces
or less. Of two cents 50 on parcels
weighing Over four ounces and not
exceeding eight, etc No parcels
would exceed eleven pounds in
weight Under such a bin with our
present number of routes the return
would be. so Mr. Foster believes as
much as twelve million dollars year.
Two interests viii doubtless OPP
pose the bill-the express companies
and the country store. The expected
opposition of the express companies
to this bill can easily be understood:
but il should have no weight against
the public interest As for the coun-
try stores. which have heretofore OPP
posed the extension of the rural free
delivery on account of the advantage
that it might give 10 the big mail or
der concerns in the city, they viii
find no such cause for opposition in
this bin, for by its provisions postage
on packages which they send TO
neighboring consumers would be
much less than postage which those
| same consumers would pay on pack
/ ages from more distant stores. The
/ country stores would thus be ulti-
mately brought into really closer con-
tact with the farming community in
4 stead of being detached from il. It
would not be surprising If the result
] of the present interest I'm our postal
! service We're to show itself in enact
ment into law, not only of Mr.. Eos
ter's measure but also of one pro-
viding fer more general parcels
post.
This bill really seems like a states
manlike measure and it is likely to
bring added fame to the Vermont
congressman With the dispute over
the postal deficit, involving the rates
on magazines and newspapers, a bill
that would decrease the shortage by
Sl2,000,000 approximately, while pro-
viding a service of great benefit to
the t2gmers and the country mer-
chants would seem to deserve hearty
support.
There is a widespread belief that
is not run on the most approved bus
mess principles and that the deficit is
larger than it need to be.
Arguments have been advanced to
prove that magazines should pay a
higher rate of postage. II would
seem wiser, however to find some
other method of reducing the deficit,
if possible. The magazines consti-
tute a great educational force and
while sonrv of them are rather sen
sational, yet they disseminate a vast
amount of information on current top
les To cripple these publications OF
compel an advance in price that
would curtail, to a large extent, the
present large circulation among the
people would be a cause for regret
The Foster bill seems practical and
sensible and, therefore, ought to pass

An Subscriptions PAYABLE in advance,

The st. Adams Messenger is in
favor of locating the Champlain mon
ument on Rock Dunder, just outside
Burlington harbor. Some way we
should hate to see that noble natural
monument reduced to being but the
foundation of mere man-made
memorial. The proper site for the
Champlain memorial. in our humble
opinion. is on or near the ruins Of the
old French fort where the gaunt arm
of Crown Point stretches out between
Bulwagga bay and the main channel
OF the lake. II the monument is to
comm anorate the history of Lake
Champlain why not place it in the
center of historic interest?

1t is as we suspected. Prof. Willis
h. Morse, chief of the weather bur
eau, who has been roundly abused for
what he was reported to have said in
relation to forests and stream flow
practically agrees with others who
have studied the question when it
gets down to detail. Forests have
little effect on the flow of streams at
the time of the spring freshets when
the snow goes. Reforestation will
never prevent freshets at this sea
son of the year, but forests do have a
great influence in taking care Of
summer rainfall and in keeping the
streams supplied with water during
the dry months of summer and fall.
Prof. Moore does not dispute this
and says that he never has.

DUG UP NUMBER
OF SKELETONS
Wealthy Baker Who Was Poisoned
Had Long Been in Fear Of
an Assassin.

[Gate City Leased Wire Service.l
CHICAGO, April Skeletons in
the past of Alexander ]. Moody, the
wealthy baker who was poisoned, are
said to have been dug up in numbers
by the police. For many years, AS
sistant Chief Schuettler declares,
Moody appealed to the police to pro
tect him from mysterious intending
assailant who had threatened his life.
The deceased was in constant terror
for years, it is said, and on different
occasions had a guard of patrolmen
placed about his home. Policeman
Holly was watching the house when it
was bombarded with bricks. The
windows were broken and much dam
age done. Holly learned the identity
of the sculprit and informed Mr.. Moody.
Instead of causing the arrest of the
mysterious assailant, Schuettler as
serts, Moody asked that the guard be
withdrawn. Moody's enemy is believ-
ed to have been a woman. The police
are trying to find this person to solve
the mystery of his death.
