He pointed out in debate that q
package started on rural route to
some destination could be stamped
with the amount required to trans
port it on the rural route and also
with the amount needed for its hauling
as an express package by the rail
roads. This plan, Mir. Martin urged,
would obyiate government ownership
OF the express companies.
Just how the express proposition
and the parcels post question are go

TO tell, but the feeling is deep in cou-

TO require the railroads 10 do the eX-

PARCELS POST
SURE TO CONE
Express Companies Will Be
Forced Out and Govern
ment Will Handle
the Business
QUESTION OF TINT.

WASHINGTON. May li.-Out Ct
the dust OF discussion in congress,
more especially in the house, this
session, two facts are pretty clearly
apparent, bearing on the parcels post
and the future of the express compa-
MES in the United States.
One OF these Is that the establish
ment OF a parcels post system Is seem.
ingly certain to come eventually. The
other Is that express companies are
going TO be put out OF business.
At one time. ii looked as il the
Cooke bill, whereby the government
would purchase the express compa'
MES, would be passed by the house.
But il will not be. All the indications
now are that the plan for government
TO take over the express companies
is dead.
II was urged that the government
could condemn the contracts between
the express companies and the rail
roads. These contracts, 1t is clearly
shcwn, are favorable. That is, the
railroads agree to do IiaulaSs for the
express companies ut low rates. But j;
was clearly demonstrated TO the house
By Congressman Towner of Iowa and
other lawyers that while the contract,
could be condemned as legal prop
osition a condemned contract ceased
to be enforceable. At the least. It was
made TO appear extremely doubtful
whether such a condemned contract
was OF any value. This fact and the
assertion that the express companies
seeing parcels post coming, would like
nothing better than TO be taken ovel
by the general government have put
a dsmper on the movement to pur
chase the express companies II II
pretty clear that many OF the mem
bers who have given reasons for no
wanting the government to take ovei
the express companies have been a
bottom animated by fear that for tbs
government to operate the express
com panies would be the begiuhing o
eo1ernneat ownership OF railroads a
the same time there is stroug feel
ing in the house that the government
would get badly 'stung' il 1t tool
over the express companies at any
thing like the values that nave beel
usually suggested.

The Gazette, in its foolish way re-
CARDS the defeat OF the bill as mark
Of the senate's confidence in the in
tegrity and ability of Governor Hunt.
Now. prefaeing any other remarks
ON this phase OF the subject, The Re-
view does not yield to the Gazette in
the offering OF tribute to the integrity
and ability of the governor. The writer
has known the governor longer and
more intimately than any person VINO
could be guilty of the folly TO which
the Gazette is daily committing itself
The Review has made timely Offering

seating to the chief executive. assum'
ing him yet to possess the fine sensi-
bilities Of the George Hunt the writer
used TO know.
But leaving this phase, what selfish
interest could the 'reactionaries" hav

troll Has the Gazette less confidence
in the combined wisdom and honesty
of FIVE officers chosen by the peopp
whose humble and lick-spitting ser

dom and honesty of the governor? or,
does il believe that it will be easier to
collect its reward from one man
than from FIVE?
In the course Of its anathera
against the reactionaries the Gazette
recalls that the governor has said that

estly, that the governor could save
the state only $4,000 after the deduc.
ton of $4,000 which the proprietor Of
the Gazette is alleged to have said
he expected as a result of the election
of December IL, last?
But the thing we had in mind in the
beginning was the Gszettes narrow
notions that all legislation enacted by
the legislature should be with refer
ence to the government of Governor
Hunt and not to the government Of
Arizona after Governor Hunt. the Ca
zette and all of us have passed away.

THE DESIGNS OF
Mr. BRYAN.

MIN SNfAN.
1t is a rather belated discovery an
nounced from the Harmon headauar-
tiers on Friday that Mr.. Bryan has
been flirting with various presidential
booms; that his purpose is to hold in
check such as appear to be approach
ing successful maturity
That has been apparent, if not evil
dent, almost from the start. In the be-
ginning Mr.. Bryan very property re
refrained from expressing himself in
favor OF any candidate. With a little
less propriety, though the lack OF it
could hardly he regarded as represen-
sibIe, he offered reasons why he could
not support certain candidates.
Mr. Bryan's purpose, however, be-
gan TO become clear when he injected
himself into the Missouri controversy
and sought to force the state to car
ry out, or at least partially carry out
an endorsement of former Governor
Folk.
Now Mr.. Folk, though an excellent
gentleman, is not OF presidential size
and there was never the slightest
prospect that in any circumstances he
could secure the nomination. But he
was useful as pawn to be played
against Clark, always 4 dangerous
candidate. lie was too strong TO be
fought openly and here and there Mr..
Bryan has been playing Woodrow Will
son against him, though it IS recalled
that at one time when Mr.. Wilson
seemed TO be taking the lead. the al
fections OF Mr. Bryan were, for brief
period, transferred TO Clark. At the
present time be is apparently support.

The fight against Underwood was a
further disclosure OF Mr.. Bryau's pro
gram. Nobody has believed-quite
likely Mr.. Underwood himself has
never believed that such votes as be
may secure in the south Will ultimate

elected for Underwood would not IL
easily stampeded. but would be trans
ferred in an orderly manner.
Hardly any objection raised by Mr.
Bryan TO Mr.. Underwood on principle
could not be applied with almost equa
force 20 Mr. Clark. Mr.. Bryan has. Of
course, personal objections - cnder

voters to share them.

State Superintendent of Schools NJ.
l.. Britain is very much interested in
the forthcoming election in Campbell
county upon the question Of county
wide taxation for educational purposes.
Discussing this matter in its gen.
eral aspect, the state superintendent of
schools said:
Local taxation for public schools is
new thing in Georgia compared With
some other states, it having been first
put in operation several years after the
war. At the outset the emphasis was
upon the city and district. Later, how
ever, the mistake was seen and for
the last few years the county wide
plan, by which all of the schools of
a county are unified as we'll as length
ened and improved, has been univer-
sally accepted as best by the educa-
tiohal leaders of the state
In the South the county Is naturally
an educational as well as political unit.

tages thus presented in contrast with

II you are trading your old automo-

There are cars toward the purchase of
which larger price will be allowed for
your present automobile than you can

1t is better to decide upon which car
