It would break up one of lh« great monopolies of the country and save the people millions of dollars an nually, besides being a great source o! revenue to the government. It would be of fully as great benefit to tin farmers as rural delivery of mails and 1 believe, a source of profit to the gov eminent as well. 1 believe It would be a great benefit to the retail merchants in that those living in the country! could order small packages of goods by : t< . hone, having them sent out by rnr i ile" . thereby 1n«-rcasing the r.iie.uer ol .-.mall orders and these or-1 goiii.- to the home dealers instead • 10 the distant mail order, houses, j 't .. lessened expense of transportation v.i tild enable the retailer to sell goods : , i lower i rice, thereby having an ad vantage not uow obtained.
