those to whom it was addressed were
obliged to call for it. Eventually, how
ever, the postmasters were allowed to
appoint carriers. The latter furnished
bond, and were allowed to collect or 2
cents as their fee. The first WASH
ington carrier was Edward Emo, ap-
pointed about 1900. He resigned in
disgust, March 81, 1904.
"As the city grew, more carriers were
appointed, and the receipts increased
enormously. In time 1t became the
a part of the carrier charge To check
up on the carriers, the so-called carrier
stamp was found to be necessary. 1t
stabilized the schedule Of fees, and
protected all concerned. The regular
carrier system was established in 1863.
But meanwhile, about 1851, the Gov
ernment had authenticated the work
Of the carrier by applying an additional
stamp OF l-cent denomination. Thus
letter bore two stamps, one an up
right stamp with the portrait of Frank
lin; the other a horizontal oval with q
representation Of an eagle. The car
rier stamps are scarce in used condi-
tion, but reprints, produced about 1875,
may be bought at moderate price.
"The larger cities had adopted a
penny post system, using stamps OF
various designs. New York was using
a stamp as early as 1912.
"Dr. william Jones was postmaster
Of Washington In 1888, but lost his
place in a political upheaval in 1889.
From 184l to 1845 he again held the
position, also from 1858 to 1851. An
enterprising man, he introduced many
innovations, and I have no doubt that
he saw the need for this additional
stamp and had prepared it for use.
THE stamp I have is light blue.
