OWNERSHIP OF A LETTER
Mlsslve Does Not Belong to Psrson .
Whom u 10 Sent Until
Delivered,

Under the postal regulations ana
the rulings OF the highest courts Of
the United states letter does not be-
long to the person to whom Il is sent
until It Is delivered to him. The writ.
or has . right to reclaim and regain
possession Of It, provided he can
prove to the satisfaction OF the post
master at the Office from which It was
sent that he was the writer of It.
Even after the letter has arrived at
the Office which Is Its destination, and
before 1t has been delivered to tho
person to whom 1t is addressed, IL
may be recalled by the writer by tele-
graph through the mailing Office.
The regulations of the postoffice de-
partment of course require that the
utmost care shall be taken by the
postmaster at the Office of mailing to
ascertain that the person who desires
to withdraw the letter is really the
one who is entitled to do SO, and the
postmaster Is responsible for his err
ror If he delivers the letter to the i'm
poster OF an unauthorized person.
The vital principle In our political
system lies at the bottom of this mat
ter. In this country the state is the
servant or agent Of the citizen-not
his master. 1t remains merely his
agent throughout the transmission OF
letter. The state may prescribe reg
ulations under which It's own SER
wants may carry message for the
citizen. but 1t cannot shirk its respon-
sibility to him.
