GOVERNMENT PAYS POORLY

The history of Railway Mail business is
interesting for two salient features, the
great increase in the service rendered the
Government and the people by the rail-
roads, and the corresponding decrease
in pay. 1t is lard to realize that the
Government should set the example OF
poor pay for service rendered, yet this is
q fact when il comes to the postoffice de.
partment poorly paving the railroads for
the great service they give. For instance,
in 1907, the railroads received $40, 757,- :
800 for earring the mails. The year
following, notwithstanding the fact of an
increase in volume amounting to 81, $685.
65S, the railroad received a decrease Of
81, ,905, ,582 less than the previous year
and for last year the report of the Post
master General shows that the revenue of
the Department (and consequently the
volume OF mail handled) increased $40,-

cent of increase in payment to the rail.

Eggs Two Gents a Dozen

Caught by the breaking OF the cold

complain that retail dealers are holding

While the wholesale prices of eggs and
butter have dropped to a low figure the
