New Parcel Post prohlsm

Parcel post is such huge success in the
vicinity OF Tacoma, Wash, as to embarrass the
federal Postoffce department in the employ
ment and retention of rural mail carriers
Wholesalers have found II much cheaper to shin
by parcel post than freight or express. Hence
carriers are loaded down with merchandise par
cells. According to reports from Tacoma
scores OF star route carriers have positively re-
fused to renew their contracts with the govern
ment because they say It is no longer possible
for them to come out even on the deal. Some
OF these carriers have received from $500 to
5000 year for their work and they are now
demanding from $4,000 to $4,000. One of
the $SOO-men writes to Washington:
Not for $4,000 yearly would continue the work
ana besides you may consider my bond forfeited
and furthermore and moreover you may consider
Uncle Sam evicted and dlspossessed from my quar-
ters.
Another star route man on a $1,000 a year
salary writes:
Not on your life After my experience with par
Gel post carrying milk and tea. dry goods and
Christmas toys and such like. I would not under
take the Job for less than $4,000 yearly and then
could hardly consider myself a winner.
Evidently Uncle Sam has few more fin
ishing touches to add to the parcel post-rural
delivery service combination to complete its
efficiency. These carriers may have their fig
ures and aspirations too high. but on the other
hand. Uncle Sam surely must have his much
too low. There is too wide a margin between
$500 and $4,000 or $500 and $4,000. And
the carriers experience counts for something
The country, OF course. must have the parcel
post and rural mail service brought up to their
maximum efficiency, so we may be sure some
lively figuring has been going on in certain
government bureaus for many Of these carrier
contracts expire June 80.

Good Citizenship Day.

Sunday Immediately preceding the Fourth of
July to the third Sunday in October. It is pro-
NOTED by religious and reform bodies and has
received favorable comment from President
Wilson, Secretary Bryan and other dignitaries.

religious and philanthropic work President
Wilson strikes the keynote of the movement In
saying that October probably would find more
people at their homes and regular occupations

ferring one date to another"

Villas Style Of War

ton OF the way Villas army attempts to
carry out tho program OF justice and res

The entrance Of the victorious revo-
lutionaries into a conquered district is an
Internal spectacle. They arrive full gall
lop, crying out like the damned, and fir

Our Panama Canal Benefioent Monopoly

Our Panama Canal a Benefioent Monopoly.
A certain aspect OF the pending Nicaragua
treaty invites suggestive reflections its un-
disguised purpose to keep any and all other
counties from building a second canal by the
Nicaragua route. Distinguished statesmen have
deolaimed much against monopoly. insisting that
in private hands monopoly is indefensible and
lntolerable. In the world arena however. the
governments OF the different nations correspond
with individuals and private corporations
within national boundaries yet here we have
proposal to guarantee to the United States
monopoly OF all the water routes across the
isthmus. This is to be accomplished through
the purchase by us Of exclusive rights in the
Nicaragua route, not so much with a view to
developing them, but TO protect the Panama
route from even a threat OF water competi-
tion.
Before building the canal we satisfied our
selves that the location chosen was from an
engineering standpoint, the most feasible and
most economical II is quite within the realm
Of possibility. however, that with the advantage
OF our experience. another canal could be cut
through in Nicaragua at a cost much less than
the original estimates, giving sea-level chan
mel, instead Of lock-type. which, as all agree,
would be much more cheaply operated.
But regardless of all economical considera-
tions, we do not propose to have our invest
ment in the Panama canal jeopardized by any
European power, or combination of European
powers, digging a competitive passageway on
any other part Of the isthmus. So far as the ma
tions Of the world are concerned, we have
pioneered in this great constructive enterprise,
and we are going to hold the monopoly Of It
as tightly and firmly as our strength per-
mits-a beneficent monopoly treating all COM
ers literally and without discrimination, but
absolute monopoly none-the-less.
