Ten Millions For Parcels Post

Congress, when it convenes next Deem
Der, will be asked to make an emergency
appropriation of $10.000,000 to put the
parcels post system into operation next
January
1t has been recognized by postal experts
who are working out the plans for the es-
Establishment of the system, that the $780,
900 appropriation allowed in the last
Postoffice Appropriation bill is not enough
to buy the equipment for the Government s
entry into the express business.
Plans are now being worked out for the
establishment of the parcels post system,
which will result in quicker letter mail and
package service. These include separate
mail cars for letter mail and packages and
separate city deliveries for letters and
packages The idea is to separate the
parcels from the letters. New railway cars
must be provided as well as automobiles
or wagons in the city.

Jamestown. Md. Oct. 10. 1912.

DdIlCSlOWH, mu., OCt. 10, 1919.
Pursuant to your commission to examine
and determine whether the public con-
requires the opening of a road
as petitioned for on the lines, therein
described, from Richard Waters, on the
Jamestown road, to Elmer Walters, on
the Germantown road, we find that the
public convenience does not require the
opening of said road for the following
reasons:
A. Most of the petitioners are now
served by the present road, which is only
little longer and is good road, the State
road being only about three-fourths of mile
from Elmer Walters where the said pro-
posed road begins. Unquestionably the
land owners through whom the said road
passes would receive some benefit, but not
commensurate with the expense of OPEN
ing and maintaining said road.
b. Should any road be opened through
from the Germantown road to the Darnes-
town road, the location should be mateTi-
ally changed to get a proper route, more
direct and with easier grades.

Popular vote for Presidential electors,
by principal political parties, 18S8-1908,"
is the title of a series Of tables, especially
interesting at present, published in the
Statistical Abstract of the United States,
issued by the Division of Statistics of the
Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce,
Department Of Commerce and Labor. These
tables present the official record of the
vote cast in each Presidential election a
far back as official records are available.
Congress in 1887 passed an act providing
that State officials should thereafter file
with the Secretary of State certified state
ments of the vote cast in the respective
States for electors of each party in the
Presidential elections, and the records thus
filed with the Department of State were
utilized in the compilation of the tables
mentioned. thus making them the first and
perhaps the only official publication of the
vote cast in Presidential elections by States
and parties in each election since the en-
actment Of the law providing for an official
record by the National Government of the
vote cast
A study of these tables, covering a full
20-year period, 1888 to 1908. presents
many facts especially interesting just now.
The total vote cast for Presidential electors
has grown from 1881. 40S in 1888 to Ia
SS7,133 in 1908. This indicates that the
vote of 1908 was about 80 per cent.
greater than that of 1888. An examina-
ton Of the totals in each Of the elections
during that 20-year period, however, shows
marked fluctuations in the number Of votes
cast and in the increases during the four
year period from one election to another.
The total vote Of 1892, for example
l2,O43.603, was a gain Of about 6 per
cent. over that Of 1888. and the vote OF
1896. 13.Sl3.243. was nearly IS per cent
larger than that Of 1892 The vote Of 1900
1894, 516. was about per cent in excess
of that Of 1896. and that Of 1904, 1922
SIC. was actually less that Of 1900, while
that Of 1908. l4,6S7.133, was about 10

sty does not justify the opening of said

The reasons for the above findings are
that too few would be served to justify

that it is currently stated by the people of
this locality that there is a right-of way
between these two roads which serves all
