Rural Mail Delivery.
To most of ua tho rural letter carrier
is a poraonal unit, a modern conven
ience who pauses at tho gate once or
twlco a day, establishes tho households
contact with tho outside world and
pnssea out of view and out of thought
until tomorrow. But at large tho rural
letter carrier numbers an army of
42,000 traveling more than 1,000,000
miles of road each day and Borving
4,000,000 families. Only when wo con
sider that tho first experimental routo
waB only thirteen years ago and that it
is less than ten years since the first full
county Borvice was attempted, and we
realize with what suddenness this pro
digious growth has been acquired. That
rural carrier does keep abreast of af
fairs is testified to by his flourishing
national association, at which recent
convention P. V. DeGraw, fourth as
sistant postmaster general, reviewed
some of the public benefits resulting
from the establishment of the service.
Looking at tho gain from only tho
financial point of view, Mr. DeGraw
calculated that tho farmer annually
saves $108,000,000 by having his mail
brought to tho door instead of going
once a week to the postofiko. Since
beginning of tho eervico the govern
ment has saved $20,000,000 through tho
abolition of fourth-class officers and
tho star routes. On tho other hand,
tho service costs tho government
$37,000,000 a year, which is $25,009,000
more than it directly yields in revenue.
It ia to bo noted, however, that tho
'system is steadily developing increased
patronage. Bee.

It is believed the conference related to
a demand for an increase in wages, nnd
that soon the matter will bo submitted
in u referendum to tho members of the
vnrlous organizations. It is further
said that a referendum vote now is in
progress among tho 100,000 or more
mcmbors of tho trainmen's and conduc

Deaths on Railroads Decreasing.
A decrease in tho number of casual
ties on rnilroads for tho year ending
Juno 30, 1909, is shown by a report
published today by the Interstate Com
merce commission.
During tho year 2,791 persons were
killed and (33,920 were injured on rail
roads, as against 3,704 killed nnd G8,-
9G9 injured during tho previous fiscal
year. This was a decrease of 973 killed
and 5,009 injured. Tho report shows
that tho number of employes killed in
coupling and uncoupling cars and en
gines was 32 per cent less than during
the fiscal year of 1908.
During the three months ending June
30, last, 588 persons were killed nnd
15,307 injured, a decreaso of three in
the total number of persons killed and
an increase of 2,709 injured, as com
pared with tho number repartcd for
for tho samo period a year ago.
During the quarter there woro 817
collisions and 1,283 derailments, of
which 100 collisions and 172 derailments
affected passenger trains. Tho total
damage to cars, engines and roadways
was $1,703,G42. This shows a decrease
of thirty in tho total number of colli
sions, nnd derailments, as compared
with .tho number reported for the same
period a year ago.
