EXERCISE
CARE WITH
j. 8. MAIL
THE EFFICIENCY OF POST OF
FIcE DEPARTMENT ALL THAT
HAS SAVED THOUSANDS IN
THE PAST YEAR.

Washington, Dec. 1S.-More than
two and a quarter million dollars
worth of checks, drafts, money or
ders. and other valuable papers We're
found in unbelievable letters by the
Dead Letter Office during the last
year and practically all were restored
10 their owners. First Assistant
Postmaster General Daniel c. Roper
in his annual report announces that
the Dead Letter Division handled
lO.SS9.S9O letters and parcels during
the year. p slight increase over the
previous year. One-third OF these
letters and parcels. or 3,677,194 was
delivered; 1O1.4S5 contained things of
value without clue TO their senders
and were held for Claimants; 7,019,.
436 had to be destroyed and fl,755
were still being investigated.
IN addition to the valuable papers
with = face value Of S2,3O3,1l9, found
in unbelievable letters, many con
taiHed stamps and some currency was
.ound loose in the mails. The stamps
and currency unclaimed, together
with proceeds from the sale Of arti
clcs Of merchandise removed from un
deliverable letters, aggregated S53.
665 and l1.G00 was realized from six
/ months operation Of a new postal
| regulation requiring collection of one
cent on advertised letters, making
/ the total ret revenue S64 G65. Mr.
Roper says that the revenue estima
ted under present conditions for q
/ $4,000. which would make the Dead
| Letter Division selfsustaining.
To prevent the unnecessary aecu
mutation Of etters containing valu
able Enclosures. o provision was con
tanned in the last postal appropril
tion law reducing the limit Of time
that such letters shall be held await

formerly going to Cleveland will be
sent to Cincinnati, and matter from
the southern peninsula of Michigan
will go to Chicago.
On account of the :arge growth in
the parcel post business, experience
has demonstrated that the accumula-
ton of this matter at the points de-
signated for handling dead parcels
has become so large as to make it
difficult to find space for its accomo-
dation. Regulations provide. in the
case OF insured parcels, that claims
for indemnity must be finel within
six months. and it has been found
there is very little call for lost par
GELS after the lapse of that time.
Accordingly an order will be issued
amending the regulations so as to re-
duce the time for holding such par
GELS prior to sale from twelve months
to six months. Last year 395161
parcels were found unbelievable.
Dead mail received by the division
of dead letters during the year con

souri. Come straight out and tell
exactly what you have 10 sell and give
good plausible reason why buyers

Ill right in writing adds, but never start

rather than truth and sincerity as a
goal" Mr., Schott told Of the success
Of the yellow pine industry through ad
vertising. the industry was gradually
losing its importance ard capitalists
who were interested in it were seeking
way to give it life. An advertising
agency was asked TO investigate con-
ditions and league Of lumber men

Mr.. Wilson and The Tariff.

Washington is specializing much as
to Mr. Wilson'S attitude toward the
tariff. The doubt does not arise over
his theories. He long ago threw them
overheard, when he declared that
there is nothing in the theory Of pro.
lection and nothing in the theory Of
free trade" By signing the frankly
protective tariff on dyes, he admitted
that the protective principle was not
as unconstitutional as the Baltimore
platform declared. The 81. Louis plat
form did not reaffirm the Baltimore
d claration as to this fundamental
principles Of the Democratic party"
Mr.. Wilson proposed a plank that
would have prevented a general pro
tective tariff, following the war, clash.
ing with the platform, inconsistent as
it might be with Democratic traditions,
The plank was so altered as to become
meaningless, under cold analysis,
Mr.. Wilson'S attitude will be purely
a matter Of judgment. Some Of his
recent random remarks, coupled with
the soothing assurance from his Federal
Trade Commission and the views DR.
PTat; expressed in ST. Louis, indicate
that he does not expect much com
petition from Euope Immediately alter
the close of the war. He seems to
entertain the theory that high taxes,
dismantled industries, and the depletion
Of the ranks Of labor will be such
handicap to European production that
Americans need not fear its competit.
ion. In taking this view, he ignores
the conditions following the NapoI-
comic wars of which he gave US such a
striking description in his, "A History
Of the American people" He gives
no heed 10 the remarkable industrial
organization the belligerent nations
have perfected and treats with silence
the results Of the investigation by
European nutrals as to trade prepara-
tons already made,
But perhaps he sees the danger
more clearly than he fnds it poliiicl
to admit. His adaptability is we'll
known. II he new the American mar
kets were TO be flooded with European
products, he would doubtless be ready
to urge a general protective tariff on
Congress. The result OF the Ma
poleonic wars converted even Jefferson
to the protective principles. Buchan'
an, before he retired, signed the Nor
rill protective tariff, but it was over
three years too late. Let US hope Mr..
Wilson will be prepared 10 act prompt

British Cabinet Troubles.
The British cannot very well

The British cannot very we'll settle
their cabinet troubles in the customary
way. The usual easy method is the
calling Of new election. That is
talked now as it has been at other cri-
ses since the war began. But there
are few British statesmen who would be
willing to trust the electors to pass on
the complication Of questions that
would effect them, no matter how the
leaders might seek to narrow the issues.
The division seems to be generally on
Temporary questions relating to war.
Asquith appears to have most OF the
Liberal party le jers with him, while
David Lloyd George, whom he made
chancellor Of the exchequer eight years
ago and who has been the chief radical
Of the United Kingdom, has some Of
his oldes; and bitterest enemies siding
with him in this crises.
Asquith's resignation seems to have
been prompted by a sense OF dignity
Il would be personally humiliating 10
head cabinet and be deprived Of
participation in the small council to
conduct the war, the biggest task Of
the government. Bonar Law may have
declined the premiership because Of
iaEo, opposition. AS colonial secre-
tary he has stirred upa hornets nest
by proposing to import negroes from
Africa TO work on the English docks,
just as they are being used back OF
the lines in France. The trade union
lists are very bitter against him. Lord
NorthcNfie's papers have also assailed
Law, although supporting the demands
on Asquilh Tor the formation Of a small
and independent war council. Lloyd
George seems to hesitate about his
ability to form a coalition cabinet that
would satisfy all divisions Of sentiment.
In addition to impatience with the
failure to speed up" the war, there is
much dissatisfaction about the Balkans
about the shortage in shipping, about
the failure to check air raids and about
The food regulations. Il is even pos
sl6le that permanent domestic polite
secretly influence some OF the critics.
Compromises OF personal dignity if not
Of principal will be necessary TO set
llemenl Of the cabinet controversy,
but it is TrotabIa that they will be
made and that there will be no general
election soon. .-GlJbe Democrat.
