EXPRESS CHARGES.
Davenport Democrat

The express companies are getting
their friends TO put UP the plea for
them that in certain lines they serve
the public better than the parcel post,
and that 1t is against public interest
that the parcel post carry competition
to the extent Of driving the express
companies out Of business.
When the companies show DISPOSE
ton to reduce charges and improve
service on lines that are not at present
touched by the parcel post. it Will be
time to declare a truce. The impress
sion prevails that they are meeting
postal competition where they have to,
but that where such competition has
not forced them to be reasonable they
are just as stiff in their charges as
formerly.

AS TO potatoes

People in town, who have to buy
their potatoes, have had good rea son
for several winters for grum bling. Not
only has the price OF potatoes been
excessively high. but nalf the time the
potatoes which are shipped in are
nipped by the frost in handling. A
consignment of them will be dumped
off on a depot platform and then lay
on a cold day of winter until some
drayman gets around to deliver them.
The result OF this is that people buy
and pay for frozen potatoes. II the
bles are not frozen in transit.
they always stand a good chance OF be-
ing 80 in the barnlike stores where
they are offered for sale.
Then as to quality: One longs for
good potato instead Of the scabby. III
shaped. pale tubers which come TO the
town table One often wonders why
we never see any more good old Peach
blows, Early Rose, Early Ohios and
other delightful breeds Of potatoes. a
large share Of the potatoes nowadays
are as colorless as turnips and as
tasteless as half ripened squash. Why
are potato lovers 90 abused? Why do
not our sturdy brothers the Irish, lead
a crusade against the wrong?
