Someone has started an agitation
for the restoration of mail service on
the steamers running between Balti-
more and points on tributaries OF
the Bay. We are not familiar with
the situation upon other lines, but
so far as the Choptank river route is
concerned, we can see no need for
such service. There is a mail reach
ing Cambridge at $50 every morn
ing except Sunday, which brings
mail deposited in the mail boxes in
Baltimore as late as ten o'clock the
night before, whereas the steamers
could not get mail deposited later
than p. m. There is a mail that
leaves Cambridge most of the year
after p. m. daily, except Sunday,
which reaches Baltimore in time for
the first delivery; mail on the steam
er would have to leave the Cam
bridge postoff1ce by $40 p. M, and
would reach Baltimore at various
hours in the morning. In this con-
nection, too, it might be well to bear
in mind the fact that in times past,
when mail came on the boat, it
reached its patrons at all hours, es-
pecially in the busy seasons. With
the truck mail direct from Balti-
more; with the special service to
and from Hurlock, there is no need
at Cambridge for boat mail, it being
understood, of course, that the gov
ernment should not spend public
money simply to please or accommo-
date a few individuals. We think
those favoring the restoration of the
boat mails should be compelled to
show a need for such service, and
not deal ingeneralities.
