"First, there is the American Ex press company; second, tho United States Express company; third, tho Adams Express company; fourth, the Wclls-Fargo Express company; fifth, tho Southern Express company." If wo ask for tho parcels post, and ask in faith, wo will get it. Work and pray hustlo and supplicate there is nothing finer. Farmers everywhere pray for tho parcel post. Sixtly-nlno ppr cent of our papulation lives in cities of ten thousand and un der. Sixty-nlno per cent of our pop ulation is urban or suburban. Wo want tho parcel post.

No sootier had tho rural carriers com menced their task of carrying mail, when tho peoplo along their routes be gan asking them to do Errands. In stead of 40 farmers going to town to buy -10 spools of thread, tho nrall car rier, with his littlo wagon, did tho bus iness. This useful servant of Undo Sam, besides carrying letters and news papers, carried telegrams, thread, bind er twine, sugar and sacks of flour. Tn many) instances his business increased so that ho drovo two horsos instead of ono, and bad a wagon that could enrrv a ton. All ho officially had to' do was get over his routo within a certain tlmo and deliver and gathor his mail. Beyond this tho department mado no restrictions. But soon tho express companies faw what ho was doing. They and tho lo cal merchants combined and' complalnt3 wore lodged with tho postoffico depart ment.

A deficiency of $10,000,000 in tho postoffico department for tho 'tirront j cur, a all partioi aro, Is owing to tho oxtonsion of the rurnl dollvo(y. When tho rural delUory carrlora woro allowed to oarry all Kindu of package on tlwlr own nceount, nnl thonby ae commodnto and sro tho peoplo along their routes, thoro was only n yen small deficiency. And ovou this d ficieney oould have been nvolded if wo bad paid only a fair and just rate to the railroads .for himlliug mull car. When tho order was issued that rural carriers should not carry packago that worqDojitanjpejJ, tho gpvonwiflnt had to pay tho carrlors mqro money. Wo liad largely taken awny tlielr usefulness by limiting tho lza of tae paekngo they shall carry.
