This matter of railway mail pay is
lust one of the numerous puzzles that
are going to be made more difficult
by the extension of parcel post. Wen
be sending packages up to a hundred
pounds by mail in short time. That
will destroy most of the express bust
ness. Now the railroads get about so
per cent. of the total revenue of the
express companies. OF course we've
got to pay them more, and differ
emily. And we've got to have differ
ent facilities for handling big pack
ages.
We can't go on putting chickens
and eggs and sacks of flour and let
tiers and watches and postcards all
in the same mail bag. Now we pay
the railroads the same price for
carrying letters. few hundred
pounds to a car, and fully loaded
freight cars of magazines and period
icals. And If we send some freight
by mail, why shouldn't 1t all go by
| mail? And If freight, why not pas
sengers? Practically all the countries
! in Europe, excepting Great Britain,
| started with parcel post and wound
up with government ownership of
railroads.
| 1t won't be many generations before
the postoffice will be the central Of
| flee for all transportation and COM
munlcation. If you want to go on a
journey, ship a load of steel, a dozen
eggs, send a telegram, a letter, or
telephone, you'll go to the postoffice
to do 1T, and pay for it all in postage
stamps.
Just the saving in bookkeeping and
accounting, IN the operation of the
| railroads. telegraphs, telephones and
other utilities. If they were all run
like the postoffice, would make a big
ger difference in cost of living, and
make it without reducing wages. than
will the tariff revision. There's less
bookkeeping in the postoffice, for
nearly a hundred thousand postoffices,
than for any little jerk-water rail-
| road or city gas company. A post
master buys so many stamps and is
charged with them. AS he sells them
| he sends in the money. Once in a
while an inspector goes around to
see that he isn't stealing the stamps.
To put the whole freight and passen-
ger business on the same basis would
save a big share OF the cost OF rail-
reading.

This was during the big freshet in the
Chagres river of November, 1903, when
the water came so close to the top,

was deemed advisable to open the

in order to avoid danger of heavy

purchases inspired by the outlook for
lower western temperatures.
Trading became less active around
yesterdays closing and some of the
earlier buyers seemed disposed to take
profits. but prices were fairly steady
at midday within a point or two of the
best. Spot houses report better
southern mill demand.
Buying was not aggressive nor in

prices worked about 10 to 10 points
