The postal authorities recently de cided to cut down the number of free deliveries in the residential part of New York from seven to four daily. Very naturally, and properly enough, a great outcry followed. Put ome of the reas on advanced to show the injustice of cutting down the mail facilitie are quite unworthy of the newspaper of a great metropolis. The cutting down of these deliveries was made on the ground of economy. And on thl much ado is made. We are told that the govern tnent has no right to economic in a iiostoflleo centre that yields a great profit, that if the postal deficit must be cut down by introducing economies, the economies 'should bo made at the "back wood" post ollke that do not cam expense. J bus we are told that last year the receipts of ail the post office included within the present city of New York were $0,182,000. and that the total expenditure amounted to f l-.137.0OO. thu leaving "a net pront of more than 5,000,000." Hut of the postal expenditures of the government, full one third or over :10,000,000 are for transportation and surely a share of these expenditure ought to e charged to the New York post office before we go to summlnu: no any protir. And then we wonder if New Yorkers do not send a letter now and then to "backwoods" post office maintained at "a loss" to the government. And If they do, do not those New Yorker renp the benefit of that "back woods" post office just a much as such ' back woods" office benefit tho receivers of the letters, and if so is it not fair that the cost should be divided between them? The New Yorker should disabuse himself of the idea that he is being taxed to make up the deficit of the "back woods" post offices, for he uses and profit from the use of such post office just a much as any one else.
