Two Cent POsfa6e

The national federation OF post
office clerks acted wisely in passing
resolutions against a 1-cent letter
postage. The members accuse the ex-
press companies of manipulating the
movement so that a deficit shall be
created. We need not go so far as
this, but may rest the case on things
as they are. To carry a letter
throughout our vast territory for 2
cents Is proportiouately a lower rate
than exists elsewhere in the world
unless we except mail interchange
among the governments of tire earth
At all events a l.cent letter postage
Is fanoIful thing for the most part,
although the large mailing houses
would find 1t 'quite an item They
set letter for letter just as much ser
vice as does the man who writes only
one letter year. One might think
that II there should he any discrimi
nation IL should be against the folk
shat put Ia thousands Of letters
year, burdening the mail aud making
the greater part OF the post office
work. But let us not say it, aud in
deed unite In a fervid support Of the
Idea Of leaving the 2.cent rate where
IL Is. Il lie ridioulously low postage
and unlike most taxes is absolutely
fair. being paid only by the people
that get the full benefit Of It,
To do away With It the clerks say
would prevent further development
OF the parcel post because of the de-
folt that would be caused. We be-
lieve the country does not need to be
told that the most valuable part Of
our post office system, If discrimina
tion can be made, Is the parcel post,
which the express companies 80 long
kept US from having. Whatever is or
lie not done, nothing should stand ir
the way of the development of u q

According to the French aviator,
Pegoud, all that lie necessary to make
flying safe is to keep ones wit.
Presence of mind Is essential In
every undertaking In which there is
hazard. But when the long list Of
aviation fatalities is recalled, the
question arises whether, In each In
stance, the victim became confused
and thus caused his fall. II is
doubtful. Among the scores OF fly
Ing men who have lost their lives
many suffered death under ciroum-
stances that indicate that the ma
chinery Of the aero pine, rather than
the pilot's mentality, was at fault.
OF course, It takes cool courage to
fly upside down. as PeRoud did, and
what is more, he performed the feat
on two succeeding days, showing that
the first time be did It 1t was not an
accidental success. Granting that
any aviator who thinks clearly can
turn over 10 the air, the element Of
risk remains. No aviator can ever be
certain that aswing Of bis plane will
not crumple, or that his engine will
not stop Even With the loss OF mo-
tive power, Pegoud says that It is
possible for the cool aviator to vol
plane to earth But what about the
other parts Of the plane, some Of
them more essential. perhPps. than
the motori The general opinion will
be that GOODNESS alone will not sus-
tain a flying machine.

Miss Margaret B. Owen Is the
champion typewriter Of the United
States. At least at a show which
was open to the whole country she
won the first prize. No sooner, had
she done so than she announced
that she was to be married. At
once the company for whom she
entered the race showed it's dis
approval, and she then said she
would not wed for a year. Dur
ing that time she will continue to
work for the company. Miss Owen
took 125 words a minute on her
typewriter for hour. The best
previous record was that of Miss
Florence E. Wilson last year with
III words. No sooner had she
won the record than she welded
G. G.. Rails of Milwaukee.
Miss owens employers were
thinking of Mrs. Rails when they
backed Miss Owen into a corner,
made her confess that she was
contemplating matrimony, and
persuaded her to sign a years
contract. They asked her at the
same time Where she and Lon II.
Hancock, the young man to whom
she Is engaged, met. She said in
Savannah, Ga. They said they
were sorry they. ever sent her
there.
There is nothing in the contract
that would COMPEL the company

COST OF WOODEN FABRICS,

New York Times: After having
had actual comparisons of cloths
made by experts to show that the
American manufacturers Of wooden
fabrics are not going to be driven out
of business by the new tariff, The
American Wool and Cotton Reporter
does some further figuring to demon
strate that the situation Is far from
hopeless.
The stock argument it says, sis
that our labor costs double that of the
foreign manufacturers, which may be
true, but proves nothing as to our in
ability to compete. Suppose we leave
the abstract and confine ourselves to
a concrete example illustration. We
will assume that the fabric to be
manufactured is a medium fancy
worsted, 2-40s, half-bIood warp and
filling. II ounces in weight.
Under the new tariff our wool will
cost the same as our competitors
stock. say SO cents a clean pound.
The cost Of making top should be paid
for from the proceeds of the sale Of
the noil, or very nearly. To make a
pound Of top will require 1871 ounces
Of clean wool at a cost Of 6O.125 cents.
