Why It Doesn't Pay.
In opposition to the argument for
governmental control of public utilities,
the claim of the supporters of "private
grabs" are sometimes heard to say that
"the postoflice department doesn't pay."
To this a bright Western exchange re
plica:
The next time you run up against one
of those fellows just remark that the
public schools don't pay and see him
look like a sheep. But why don't the
postoflice pay? At the time we reduced
the postage from three cents to two. the
department was paying an annual profit
of several millions dollars. For the
year ending 1808 there were 73,570 post
offices doing business. The total
revenue was 889.012,018 and the total
expenditure was $98,033,523.
The largest item of expense was for
transportation, being 551,780,283. There
were 500 postal cars in use, for which
the government paid over $3,500,000 for
rent. The cost of these cars is less
than $2,000,000, and they will last for
twenty years. The government pays
the New York Central Railroad $8,500 a
year for each postal car and they can
be built for $3,500. The government
pays in addition to this, for the trans
portation of the mails at the rate of one
cent a pound for each fifty-six miles
carried or eight times as much as the
express companies pay, and fifty times
as much as shippers pay for the trans
portation of merchandise.
Thousands of tons of mail sent out
by the different government depart
ments are carried free, such as agricul
ture seeds, books, pamphlets, etc.
There are 500,000 copies of the "Year
Book" on agriculture sent through the
mails every year. And there are mil
lions of other publications. There are
millions and millions of letters sent by
the departments and by members of
congress free.
If the franking service was abolished,
in other words if the departments had
to pay the regular rates of postage, the
postal department would make an
annual profit, even with the transporta
tion robbery. The railroads rob Uncle
Sara of more than $30,000,000 annually
on the transportation of mail.
Some years ago congress passed a law
giving county papers free transporta
tion in the county where published.
This is really returned to the people in
cheaper subscription rates for county
papers. Yet, it costs Uncle Sam some
millions to give this free transportation.
If we charge to income the free list,
that alone gives a net profit to our post
offices department of nearly $400,000,
and if to this we add the $30,000,000
annual robbery by the railroad we find
that our government postoflice could, by
correcting this evil, give us penny post
age, and make a net profit of several
million dollars each year.
The British postoflice makes a net
profit of $10,000,000 a year. Nearly all
the postal systems of the world show a
profit; even those in sparsely settled
Australia. But in America, where we
are so wise, we present to the railroad
barons a present of $30,000,000 a year.
A pleasing bit of news lately is that
Mr. Rockefeller has embarked in the
banking business, applying the Stand
ard Oil methods to finance. No meth
ods are better. There are several
thousand bankers in the country who
will learn what this means before many
years. One Boston bank has felt it. If
these little fellows think that they are
going to get the cream or even ordinary
skimmed milk out of the banking busi
ness, they are mistakeu. That is easier,
far easier, than the oil business to
monopolize. What they have will be
gradually scooped by the Rockefeller
interests and the owners will be merely
clerks to his imperial finance. The
country bankers are being used as cat's
paws to control the public and they will
get taken in by the very system they
are helping to erect on the necks of the
nation. There are chickens that come
home to roost.
Judged by their promises the project
ors of the new railroad from the an
thracite regions to the sea are estimable
people. They know what their region
wants; they have the means to supply
it; and they say that they propose to
supply that need. So far, then, so good.
In the expressive language of the street
It Is up to them. But meanwhile, hav
ing proved that the anthracite region
needs another railroad, will they build
the other railroad or compromise on
reduced tolls on their product? The
question is fair. Is it to bo a new road,
gentleman, or only a bluff for specific,
but not specified, purposes?— Phila. In.

rapid development of its hematite ore
beds, which are the largest in the
world.
Mayor Deplnit, of Erie, Penn., says

ry of the University of Illinois has re- j
cently secured by purchase and by loan !

poses of class study.
Wall Street Tactics.
Wall street has found out that tho
public is indignant over the pouring
of $25,000,000 of government funds in
to the centre of speculation to inflate
stock exchange values, and it is send
ing out reasons why the treasury was
justified in doing it The main reason
given is the inelastic rules of the na
tional banking system, which pre
vent the banks coming to the relief
of the country by increasing their note
issues, but it is a gross misrepresenta
tion of the facts. The national banks
as a whole are as much adverse to a
large permanent volumn of circulating
paper money as Wall street is, and
they themselves prove, that they are.
On the very day, and every day since,
that Secretary Gage threw $25,000,000
on Wall street to "relieve the strin
gency," the national banks of New
York City were nearly $30,000,000 be
low their authorized maximum note
issue, and the banks of the whole
country were $350,000,000 below that
point That is to say, the New York
national banks could have added $30,-
000,000 to their note issue in forty
eight hours, and the national banks of
the country could increase their note
issue by $350,000,000. But had the
banks relieved the money market by
issuing notes there would have been
no occasion to start a scheme to de
plete the treasury reserve and force
the government to issue another
batch of bonds later on.
If congress is going to do any work
on the monetary system it should en
act a law obliging national banks to
keep their note issue up to 90 per
cent, of their capital, as they have
the right to do. It is nonsense to
charter a bank and allow it to retire
its volume of notes down to 10 per
cent, of its capital whenever it wants
to With such power to create a ple
thora or stringency in the money mar
ket lodged in the note issuing banks,
it is not surprising that the volume of
money should be subjected to violent
fluctuations, nor will the channels of
commerce be safe from Wall street
manipulators until such legislation as
suggested is had. It is true the secre
tary of the treasury had the power to
refuse to respond to Wall street's call
for $25,000,000, which he should have
done, and throw the responsibility of
a strigency upon the banks, but that
was not the game the street and the
bankers were playing. As a matter of
fact, there was no pressing stringency,
but the throwing of $25,000,000 on the
street would inflate share values. The
country always dabbles in stocks on a
rising market, and the country will
own millions of shares by the time
the $25,000,000 is used up. And then
the street will buy back the country's
holdings when the "reaction" has sent
them to the bottom. It is an old
game, and this is not the first time
the nation's treasury has helped Wall
street to fleece the country.—Kansas
City Times.
The Home of the Trusts.
When a reckless partisan makes an
attack on the party it opposes, says
the Cleveland Plain Dealer, a little
matter like the truth does not trouble
it. For instance, one of that class of
papers in Cleveland yesterday said
that "The homes of the trusts are in
New Jersey, Delaware and West Vir
ginia—states whose laws are made by
Democrats." A slight acquaintance
with current political history might
have saved the thrower of that boom
erang from the return of the missile
on his own party. The lawmaking
power of all three of those states is
in the hands of Republicans. New Jer
sey is reperesented in the United
States Senate by two Republicans,
and the present legislature of the
state has strong Republican majori
tiies in both branches. West Virginia
is represented in the senate by two
Republicans, and* the present legisla
ture is Republican. Delaware has a
Republican legislature, and the fact
that one seat in the United States
Senate is vacant is wholly due to a
split among the Republicans prevent
ing them uniting upon a candidate.
Therefore, the fact is that the
homes of the trusts in New Jersey,
Delaware and West Virginia are in
states whose law-making power is in
the hands of Republicans.
For Wage Earners.
If any one doubts the tendency of
trusts to spread their protecting wings
over all the civilized world, and lacks
imagination enough to see that the
working populations of five or six
great nations are thereby likely to be
come employes of a hundred or fewer
globe-circling industrial combines, he
has only to read the testimony of John
W. Gates, of the American Steel and
Wire Company, before the Industrial
Commission at Washington, to be
ruthlessly undeceived.
Perhaps when iron and steel, cot
ton goods, woolen goods, leather
goods, tobacco and other leading lines
of manufactures are "syndicated"
throughout the world, the wage earn
er will begin to realize what is meant
by government by industries, by and
with consent of the governed—or oth
erwise—Paterson Guardian.
The Carter Outrage.
Eagan and Carter.—The lawyers
have invented a new quibble which
they hope will keep Carter out of pris
on. They contend that as the court
has sentenced him to dismissal from
the army he is no longer subject to
military authority, and hence that the
courtraartial'B sentence of imprison
ment is void. But the precedents
are all against the quibble. In the
latest case —Eagan's—in which an offi
cer was sentenced to dismissal from
the army for "conduct unbecoming to
an officer and a gentleman," the Presi
dent, so far from holding the convict
to be beyond military jurisdiction, al
though he approved the finding and
sentence, changed the punishment to
one of six years' furlough on full pay,
with honorable retirement at the end
of the term. —N. Y. Verdict.
Exploit Private Grabs.
The Commisioner of Navigation,
Mr. Chamberlain, uses his office to put
out a stirring plea for Mark Hanna's
bill to present $9,000,000 a year to our
languishing shipbilders, who have to
turn away orders, and, pending the
passage of the Hanna grab, are organ
izing a trust to put up prices. In no
other civilized nation are statistical
and scientific departments intended
for the supply of accurate information
given over to figure jugglers for the
exploitation of political and private
lobe and grabs,— Jtoy York World.
CHRISTMAS WORK.
How Some Useful and Pretty Prei
ents May Be Made.
This is the season when Christmas
novelties are displayed in their most
attractive forms, says Edith Chester
in the Country Gentleman. Distract
ing little trifles are found in the win
dows and on the counters. Both
needle and pen have cunningly
worked to render even more fascinat
ing the numerous articles that are
destined to And their way, ere many
weeks elapse, into the houses of young
and old. Skilled hand labor always
finds a large circle of admirers, and
those who are adept in the use of
needle, brush or pen have it in their
power to gladden the hearts of friends
at slight expense. Among so many
bewitching novelties it cannot but be
hard to choose, and the few ideas here
offered are mere suggestions that the
ready brain of the artist can easily
supplement.
A case for the paper of pins that
should hang by the side of every bur
eau and dressing table may be readily
fashioned by covering two pieces of
(Photograph Frame,
pasteboard, 5 inches long by 1%
inches wide, with linen, upon which
holly, with its green leaves and red
berries, has been embroidered One
side of the case should be 2 inches
wide, so that the pins can be easily
extracted. A few stitches at the back
hold the two sides of the case to
gether. and a strip of bright red rib
bon, half an inch wide, holds the pa
per of pins securely In place. The
ribbon should be tied into bows at
each end, with one extra long loop by
which to suspend this useful gift. Of
course, the paper of pins may be used
at any time.
The up-to-date photograph frame is
of heavy cardboard, about the edge of
which a narrow strip of dark gray
or green paper has been pasted. Four
hearts, pointing to the centre of the
cardboard, each with a circular piece
cut out, to allow the photograph to be
seen, makes an attractive design for
such a frame. A few sprays of mistle
toe sketched in each corner is all that
is necessary to give a seasonable
touch to this gift. Of course a square
of cardboard should be glued to the
back, with openings at the top for the
insertion of the picture.
Crepe paper is a thing of the past,
and its devotees have been obliged to
resort to cardboard, or what is better
known as egg-shell paper. Candle
shades can be made of this, and are
very pretty when delicately gilded.
Little scrap pictures on the outside,
and surrounded by gilded wreaths,
form an attractive addition.
Bright Christmas tree ornaments
are made by dividing the shells of
English walnuts in half, gilding the
outside and Ailing them with cotton.
Upon this cotton bed wee baby dollies,
that have been dressed in lace and
ribbons, are placed, and the half
shells are then tied together with nar
row ribbons.
Household Hints.
Silk dresses should never be
brushed, but should be carefully
rubbed with an old piece of velvet
kept specially for the purpose.
A nice steam presser can be made
of a short length of curtain pole or
broom haudle. Select a piece ten or
twelve inches long, pad it with flannel
and cover with old muslin. Good for
waist or sleeve seams.
Properly cooked kidneys are very
healthful, but as they are usually
cooked they are very indigestible. No
meat requires more skill to cook prop
erly. They need to be cooked like an
egg. Too much cooking is worse than
too little. They harden and become
indigestible. Five minutes cooking is
better than ten or fifteen, if sliced.
A delicate and nourishing dish for
an invalid is white custard made as
follows: Scald half a cup of milk; beat
the white of one egg slightly, add one
tablespoonful of sugar and a few
grains of salt. Combine the mixtures
very carefully, add a few drops of van
illa and strain into a buttered custard
cup. Bake in a pan of hot water un
til firm, not allowing the water in the
pan to boil.
In the Butterfly Business.
Mary Yeomans, an English woman,
now resident of California, is devel
oping a profitable industry in catch
ing butterflies. She had some know
ledge of butterflies when she went to
the Pacific slope. One day a flock of
Pansy-like butterflies hovered a mo
ment over her and then flew up the
mountain side. She thought she rec
ognized a species only known In the
higher Alps, which are very rare and
consequently valuable. She followed
these honey-loving beauties up the
mountain and captured a goodly num
ber of them. She copied in the water
color and sent the sketch to London.
After a considerable wait she re
ceived word to send the butterflies,
for which she received for the twenty
five $575. Miss Yeomans has a nurse
ry for beetles in her cellar. Dr. Le
Fontain, who came from France to
study the insects of California, taught
Miss Yeomans much about insects and
was most enthusiastic over her enter
prise. Miss Yeomans finds great de
mand for beetles aB well as butter
flies.
Victoria's New Tea House.
England's Queen intends to add one
more to the list of tea houses on the
Balmoral estate. Each of these re
treats is decorated to represent some
particular country. For Instance
there is "India," which is furnishe<
with bamboo and Indian matting
while "China" is decorated with eel
estial emblems in beautiful colorings
The new tea house is to be "America,"
and will be pit up in readiness for
next year.
