Election, Tuesday, Nov. 7th. , | TTIT - - rrrT- HI I IIW | T , — WASHINGTON LETTEH. (From tur . ij tlar Correspondent.) Washington, Ypril 'Jt>. 1905. Editor P'CHH: Postninster General ('ortelyon has inaugurate] a new regime in the prosecution of fraud in his De partment, if it continues to he eon ducted on its present lines, prom ises to prove "a terror to wrong doers." In fact, that is (lie Post master General's announced pur pose. To begin with the Post master General issued instructions to the law division of his depart ment to investigate every concern on its face appeared to he: conduct ing a fradulent business as fast as they could be reached, without waiting, as has been the custom j with former administrations, for' some person who had been ('victi mized to file a complaint. There-! suit has been that a larger number of fraud orders have bean issued during the last month than in any previous month in this history of the department. With the reor ganization of the Postoflice Depart ment tlie inspectors have been j placed under the direct supervision ! of the Postmaster General, instead,! of being in the Bureau of the i Fourth Assistant, as heretofore, and inspectors realize that the evi- j deuces of their vigilance come to the personal notice of Mr. Cortel you, so there is every inventive to | do thorough work. In time the | Postmaster General hopes to do- i velope this good work to an extent j that will enable him to hold re- | sponsible the inspectors or the of- I fieials of the Law Division when . an apparently objectionable adver tisement appears continuously for a given period in the newspapers without its authors being inspect ed by t he postal authorities. IJut Postmaster General Cortel you has not conlined his energies to the insurance of fraud orders against concerns doing a hislionest business. He has also instituted a crusade against persons conducting or acting ; agents for lotteries. In this work, in which the Post ofiiee Depai -n unt lias, in the past, been hauipe; < l by lack of coopera tion from other Departments, Mr. j Curtely-.;J i.as enlisted the syin- 1 pat-hies and cooperation of tlie j Treasury Department and of the: Department of Justice. Already ; raids have been conducted and | numerous arrests made in Tacoma, San Francisco and in Cleveland, j Although no arrests were effected ; in last named city. Within a few j days raids will be conducted in ; eleven other cities were lotteries or their agencies are nourishing, ac cording to information which has i reached the Postoflice Department j 01 the Secret Service men. The j men thus far arrested claim that j they represented the Mexican Lot- | tery and that the tickets seized i were for a Mexican drawing, but j the Secret Service men are of the ' opinion that the concern has head- j quarters in San Francisco. They claim that the printing of the al- | luring tickets took place in that : city. Postmaster General Cortelyou lias some other reforms of import ance in view but as his plans are not yet formulated he does not care to discuss them for publication at this time. Altogether, the ad ministration of the new Postmaster j General, even should it be brief, i will doubtless see much needed im- \ provement in the postal service, j especially if Congress is willing to cooperate with him and to aid by by legislation in the needed im- l provemente. There is some fear, however, that Congressmen will be inclined to resent the Postmaster General's insistence that his subor dinates shall not take off their coats I to carry doubtful congressional dis j tricts and perform other similar services.

Dear Sir: lint tew of the men who j sell the hundred different paints in the i market know much about theui. All [ Devoe agents have a state chemist's cer tificate tellm-i just what it's made of, they know a siood deal, nit only about Devoe but the rest; we see that they do. We bay every paiut, that lias any Mile, and analyze it. Our age at finds out all about it. When we know what a paint is made of, we know how it will act; we know how far it goes and how long it wears. Devoe is the standard; call it 100. The best of the rest is about 75; the worst about 25; the rest are between. Hut the men who sell them, don't know any better. They know what the maker tells them. That is; they know that he tells them. They don't know I whether he tells them the truth or not. The business is not conducted on | knowledge; the less they know, the more i comfortable they are.
