AGENT LETTERS WILL
 SOON BE A REALITY

Full details of the three-cent post age plan inaugurated as war rev. enue measure are contained in a cir cular recently received by local post offices. On and after November End a rate of three cents per ounce or fraction thereof will be charged on letters leaving the city. All letters addressed to persons in the city will be delivered for two cents. The pos tai cards will be raised from one cent to two cents.
 The instructions received indicate that it will be impossible for the gov ernment to supply three-cent envel- opes or the new two-cent postcards in sufficient time to supply all demands for some time to come and these will probably will not be sold until the old supply of two-cent stock is exhausted.
 Until such supplies are received it will be necessary to affix one cent SJdIlpS JO Iilc lWO-CclI cIlNtlOpeS UT one and two-cent stamp to an or dinary envelope and one-cent stamp to a one-cent postal card to obtain delivery after November 1st.
 There has been large demand for two-cent envelopes of late, evidently under the misapprehension that the old rates would obtain until the pres ent supply of stock was exhausted. The local postoffice emphasizes the point contained in the orders that the three-cent rate will be rigidly enforc- ed for all outside letter mail.
 The orders indicate that postmas- ters may now take their acquisitions for three-cent printed special request stamped envelopes of all designs and in all listed sizes with the exception of manila. The prices of the new en-
