POSTAGE AND PENNIES.

Bills pending in congress which
provide for the reduction of the To-
cal postage letter rate from two cents
to one. have been pproved by Post
master General Burieson. This means
that a5aietter mailed in any city or
town would be delivered anywhere
within the limits of the focal delivery
system, for one cent. 1t does not at
feet letters going beyond the cal Of
fee.
This provision was at one time in
force. Mr.. Bnrleson says that the
present two-ccnt charge on that class
OF mail exceeds the cost Of handling
and he ..belieges the reduction should
be made beeaus the postal service
should not Sc Conducted for profit"
There are two sides to this matter
however. While no one wants to pay
more for postage than is necessary II
seems rather a'-surd, in view OF the

existing state Of postal finances, that
any reduction should come about be-
cause a little money is made on one
trifing branch of the service.
If there were funds available te
give the carriers and other postal en-
ployes fair wage, compared with
other kinds of labor of equal standard
if wages were high enough to attract
to the service somewhere near enough
employees to handle the work eff

ing a profit. that profit should OF
course be taken off and the consumer
be given the benefit of the reduction.
But suppose this matter Of the 10
cal one-cent postage were submitted
to a vote Of all the people most at
fected by it? Take for example stores
and corporations sending out thoCs-
ands of statements monthly, whose
mailing bills of hundreds Of dollars
would be cut in half by the one-cent
local postage rate Would they not
vote in overwhelming numbers to
have this money retained in the postal
service and used where it would do a
little good in improving the quality
of the mail deliveries?

Committing the government of a

ruler seems to work beautifully as
long as the ruler is wise, honest, good
and ambitious only to promote justice
and honor in his own country and in
the world. But that combination of
qualities seems to be rare indeed in
divine-right monarchs with absolute
power. For q 3oDg time the Germans,
while so ruled. seemed to be the most
efficient ana prpspe reus Of nations.
Then the greed and ambition Of their

little ability for self government or
political initiative or even liking for
the task.

coal committee.
The regulations which will go into
effect at noon Monday are as far
reaching in many respects as those
of the war winter Of 1918 and in its
announcement to the public the COM
mittee stated that unless miners re-
! turned to work in such numbers as
to provide substantial increase of
! coal at an early date still further
restriction may become necessary and
consideration will have to be given
to the distribution of the stocks of
coal now in the possession of indus
tries not recognized as vital"
The new restrictions will be en-
forced under the war time powers of
the fuel administration. They pro-
vide chiefly that stores and Office
buildings may use heat, light or pow
er only between 9 a. m. and p. m.,
except for bakeries restaurants, drug
stores (for sale of drugs only) and
barber shops which use light. heat and
power from s a. m. to s p. IN. Certain
other exceptions are made to pro-
vided for various industries and busl-
nesses. Theaters, moving picture
houses and other places of public
amusement may use light, heat or

tinuous processes can not be inter-
fered with, may be operated only rs
hours a week. Exceptions are made
to meet the special conditions Of rail-
