OLD FASHIONED PosToFF1cE METHODS

The postoffice department is pretty slow The
pneumatic tube for the transmission of mail
matter has been in use in Great Briton for half
a century. 1t is in universal use in this country
for the transmission of papers and packages be-
tween departments of manufacturing and bust
ness concerns, but the postoffice uses the tubes
only IN a limited way as may be inferred from
the following Washington dispatch of recent
date:
The government has decided to try
the experiment of using 30-nch mail tubes
under ground. Bids for this service were
opened at the postoffice department yes
terday and two concerns were found to be
the only bidders. One was the Universal
pneumatic transmission company of Chi
cago and the other the Ohio mal and
parcel transportation company, which is a
subsidiary company of the American pneu-
matte service company, which has head
quarters in Boston, and is owned largely
by New England interests
The eight-inch tube is the standard size
tube used by the government in the half
dozen or more cities where the system is
employed. The 30-inch tube capable of
carrying mail sacks and even the post
master himself, if necessary, is new de-
parture.
Pneumatic tubes for the collection and dis
;rlbutlon OF mail matter should have been in
stalled years ago in every metropolitan center
hey represent vast saving in cost labor and
time. and it is not impossible that these facts
telp to explain the delay about more general
installation of the device

NO EXEMPTION IN THE CANAL.

In view OF the fact that congress is again
dallying with two bills providing that American
vessels shall be exempted from payment Of tolls
for passage through the Panama canal it is well
that we recall the theory on which we proceeded
several years ago to dig the great ditch through
the isthmus.
We undertook with the explicit consent of
the leading powers Of the world after we had
made preliminary representation to them
to dig a canal which would be free and open to
the vessels OF commerce of all nations, so that
there should be no discrimination against any
flag in respect to the conditions of or charges
for traffic
Such was the distinct understanding under
which we began the work. and any preferential
treatment granting American vessels free pass
age while compelling others to pay would be
violation of it.
Following the French failure we even went
SO far as to guarantee these conditions in the
Hay-Pancefote treaty, the language Of which
Is SPECIFIC as to both charges and the assurance
that they shall be just and equitable
Perhaps congress has forgotten all about that
treaty. At least, it would appear that several
OF our statesmen either woefully deficient in
their knowledge of recent diplomatic history or
extremely careless Of the nations obligations
We cannot, however, think that the majority
IN either house would consent to put the country
in the attitude of violating treaty at time
when negotiations are under way for consum-
nation OF another agreement that would prac.
hcally assure the peace of the world
The United States is digging the canal to
stimulate the commerce of the world as a
great international highway and trade route
and not merely to facilitate our own water
communication between the Atlantic and the
Pacific coasts Of course, it is designed to double
the usefulness of our navy by making it avail
able for service in both oceans but as far as
commerce is concerned we have definitely prom
ised that there shall be no discrimination
The discussion in congress has aroused pro-
tests from Great Britain, Germany and France
as might have been expected We might think
at first that the question of tolls need not be
settled for several years-but Colonel Cocktails
IN recent report on the progress of the work
and the prospect of completion within four years
reminded the government that foreign shipping
interests should be given at least eighteen months
advance notice of the charges to be exacted in
order that they might accommodate themselves
to the new conditions that will exist when the
passage is ready tor use.
The proper course of the government at this
time. therefore would be the prompt defeat &c
both bills providing for the exemption of Amer-
San vessels. THIS would make it clear to all
nations that we have no intention of discrimnat
ing and that our purpose is as broad and gen
erous as it was when we set ourselves to the
most stupendous engineering achievement the
world has ever known

Insurgents in congress and their

United States to the other. The new
organization is to be known as the Ma

and the announcement is made that 1t

in which the leagues members be-

ganized in each state; headquarters
will be opened in Washington and lit

broadcast over the country. Sufficient
money has been already raised for the
carrying on of the movement.
Senator Jonathan Bourne, Jr., of
Oregon, is to be the head of the league
and is to have charge of the head
quarters in this city. Col. Roosevelt

PAY YOUR POLL TAXES.
An Obligation That Ought Not to Be
NEGLECTED.


Jackson. Unless there is an ex-

February |, Mississippi's list of poll
tax dslinquelts is goisg TO be much
larger than usual, despite the fact
that this is campaign year, with
elections to be held for all state,
county and district cfices.
Reports from over the state show
that the percentage OF unpaid poll
taxes is very much larger than usual,
and in some counties not exceeding
one-third of the persons assessed with
this obligation, which is essential to
suffrage, have made payments.
In this district OF Kinds county, for
instance. over 1900 white persons
who are assessed with poll taxes have
not yet called at the tax collector S
Office to make payment, many OF
these, OF course, will discharge the
obligation within the next ten days,
and thus establish themselves as
qualified electors, but many Others
will neglect to do so, and become dis
franchised unless aspiring office
seekers make payment for them and
hold the receipts, which has been a
growing custom.
