said, us necessary for the real success
of any business, and the surest way to
gain this confidence is to deal honestly,
tell the absolute truth, hide nothing,
and convince the people that they are
getting a square deal.
"There is today apparent in CONNER
cial life a distressing condition, the de-
sire to avoid payment of honest debts
by various business subterfuges. Some
apply for receiverships, some transfer
their property to their wives, and others
adopt various means to avoid payment
of their debts.
Business men should not be Chris
tians only when they say their prayers,
but all the time. Business conditions
here differ greatly from those in coun-
tries where Christianity is not obscured
by commercialism. Look at Oberam-
mergau, and the people of the Tyrol
Mountains, for instance. There the
Christian spirit pervades all business,
and all business is honest. Each man
trusts his neighbor, and is trusted, and
nowhere is there a happier and better
people

THE POSTAL SERVICE

No service rendered by the govern
ment directly and appreciably affects
so large proportion of the population
as that of the Postofice department and
the report Of its activities for the past
year containsl several features of I'M
usualsinterest. :. Foremost, of course, is
the splendid record for economy as
shown by a reduction Of 81, 500, 600 in
the deficit, an achievement which has
already been commented upon, but
which deserves to be emphasized at this
time. This is genuine economy, for the
saving was effected not by reducing
postal facilities, but by extending and
improving the service. Over 1900 new
postotiices'we established, hundreds
of new rural delivery routes benefited
dwellersi remote from the centers of
population and large additions were
made to the army Of employees. The
compensation of carriers and clerks was
substantially increased, a wise move in
the direction of greater efficiency.
The two principal sources of loss to
the government are the handling of sec
ond class mail and the rural delivery.
To offset the first Postmaster General
Hitchcock suggests that a distinction
be made between the advertising and
the reading matter in magazines, a
matter that was touched upon in Presi-
dent Taft recent message to Congress.
In his opinion, the magazines should pay
the government what it costs to trans
port their advertising pages, the rate
of postage for the regular reading mat
ter to remain at the present figure. If
this were done, MIR. Hitchcock believes
one-cent letter postage will soon be
feasible. owing to the added revenues
from second class matter. As to the
deficit caused by the rural mail service
the problem is more difficult. The con-
ditions under which it is operated pre-
clude its becoming sef-supporting but
the loss Lmay be made up by other
branches Of the service. The recommen-
dation in the report for the establishing
of parcels post will elicit approval
from some quarters. This suggC stion
also was contained in the President s
message. There is a demand in this
country for some such system of cheap
transportation of moderate sized pack
ages as obtains in most other countries.
The lack of such a service was empha-
sized recently in New York by the strike
of an express company sIemployes.
1t is evident that the Postofiice de
partment is being conducted on sound
business principles, with due regard for
the administration 5 watchword of econ
omy and a policy of progressiveness
that should further extend its sphere OF
usefulness.

A SANE CONCLUSION.

The editor of the Hampshire Review
of West Virginia who has been men
toned as candidate for United States
Senator, make some remarks that ap-
ply to officeholders and parties every
where, in outlining the qualifications
necessary for an acceptable and efficient
Senator, in these words.
eve long since came to the conclu-
sion, which grows stronger year by
year, that the man serves his party
best who serves the people best; that
the best why for a party to retain
power is to elect men to office, great
and small, who will, by their public
careers, leave record for honesty and
faithful service that the opposite party
can not attack successfully. Any other
course is wrong and wrong can triumph
but temporarily, even in matters po-
litical."
