4 MILLION OF
POSTAGE STAMPS
MADE EACH DAY

e. B. Keath, Assis ant Pos mas
ter, hands the Ledger a copy Of the
Postmasters' Advocate, in which ap
pears an interesting article on the
manufacture of postage stamps Ex-
cerpts from the article follow:
The average consumption of stamps
in the United States Is about seven
teen million per day, and within a
year this number would glrdle the
Globe over four times Employees of
the Bureau of Engraving and Print
ing work eight hours each day and
in that length of time turn ont from
ten to twenty million postage
stamps.
On certain OCCASIONS, when more
stamps are demanded or rush order
Is recelved,it has been found necessa-
ry to work day and night in the bi
print shop. Forty million stamps
have been made in a single day of
twenty-four hours.
The law requires that there be
kept on hand in the storage vaults
Of the bureau of Engraving and
Printing one hundred million one
cent Stamps and twice that number
Of the two-cent denomination. Great
care is needed to see that the num-
Der Is not depleted. There has never
been an occasion when, the stamps
on hand gave out, and it will prob
ably never occur on account of the
vast number manufactured each day.

antGovernor of Missouri, the Gala.
TN Mol democrat edltor.ary SAYS;
Hon. W. r. Painter. OF carrorton,
has filed for the office Of Lieuten-
antGovernor OF Missouri with the
secretary o. s.ate. These is no
doubt In our mind but what VIII
Painter was e.ec'ed TO this office
four years ago, but rather than en-
barrass his party with a contest,
which would prevent legislative work
until settled, he let his opponent
have an Office to which he was NOT
entitled We think Mr.. Painter is
entitled to the nomination for this
reason alone, and for the reason that
he has superior qualifications for
the office He IS editor of a Demo
cratic newspaper is progressive
Democrat, and we hope he win be
nominated and elected in November
BY such a majority that there can
be no possibility Of contest again."
