tnem pay the same postage rate of 1 cent
po-ir.d. The sta'lstlcs of DOT show that
spcond-ciass nuil matter constituted (C n
per cent of the weight of all the mail, and
yielded oniy 6.13 per cent of the revenue.
A great saving might be made, amount
ing to much more than haif of the loss,
by imposing upon magazines and peridleais
a higher rate of postage. They are much
heavier than newspapers and contain a
much higher proportion of advertising 10
reading matter, and the average distance
of their transportation is three and a half
times as great.
I commend the whole subject to con
gress, not unmindful of the spread of intel
ligence which a low charge for carrying
newspapers and periodicals asslsta I very-
much doubt, however, the wisdom of a
policy which constitutes so large a subsidy
and requires additional taxation to meet It
Postal Reveaae Deficit.
The second subject worthy of mention
In the Postoffice department Is the real
necessity and entire practicability of estab
lishing postal savings banks. The success
ful party at the last election declared In
favor of postal savings banks, and al
though ths proposition finds opponents In
many parts of the country, I am con
vinced that the people desire such banka.
and am sura that when the banks are fur-
Dlahed they will be productive of the ut
most good. Ths postal savings banks are
not constituted, for the purpose of creating
competition with other banka Ths rate
of interest upon deposit to whleh th.
would be limited would bo so small as to
prevent their drawing deposits away from
other banks. t
I bellevs thsm to be necessary In order
to offer a proper Inducement to thrift inn
saving to a great many people of small
means who do not now havs banking facili
ties, and to whom such a system would
offer an opportunity for the accumulation
of capital. They will furnish a satisfac
tory substitute, based on sound principle
and actual successful trial in nearly all
the countries of the world, for the system
of government guaranty of deposits now
being adopted in several western states,
which, with deference to those who ad
vocate It seems to roe to have in it the
seeds of demoralization to conservative
banking and certain financial disaster.

Delay Not Necessary.
The question of how the money deposited
in postal savings banks shall bs Invested
.s not free from difficuty, but I believe
Lr.at a satisfactory provision for this pur
pose wu Inserted as an amendment to
the bill considered by the senate at Its
last session. It has been proposed to de
lay ths consid-raiion of legislation estab
lishing a postal sa sings bank until after the
report of the monetary commission. This
report la likely to be deiayed, and prop
erly so, because of ths necessity for car
ful deliberation and close Investigation
I do not aee why tne one should bs tie,
up with the other. It Is understood ths.
the monetary commission havs looked Inl
ine system of banking which now pre
vail abroad, and have found that by a
control there exercised In respect to re
aerves and the rates of exchange by soma
central -authority panics arc avoided. It
is not apparent that a system of posuu
savings banks would in- any way Inter
fere with a change to such a system hers.
Certainly In moat of the countries In
Europe where control Is thus exercised by
a central authority, postal savings banks
exist and are not thought to bs Incon
sistent with a proper financial and banking
system.
Ship Saeetdy Bill.
Following the course of my distingu
ished predecessor, I earnestly recommend
to congress ths consideration and passage
of a ship subsidy bill, looking to ths
establishment of lines between our At'
iantlc seaboard and ths eastern coast of
south America, as well as lines from th
west coast of the United States to South
America, China, Japan and the PhUippinea.
The profits on foreign mails ars perhaps
a sufficient measurs of the expenditures
which might first be tentatively applied
to this method of inducing American capi
tal to undertake the establishment of
American lines of steamships La those
directlona In which we now feel It most
Important that ws should have means of
transportation controlled in ths Interest ot
the expansion of our trade. A bill of thia
character has once passed the house and
more than o-ice parsed ths senats. and I
hope that at this ceasion a bill framed on
the same lines and with ths same pur
poses ir ay become a law.
Ceaservatlea el Reeeareea.
Ia several departments there la presented
the necessity for legislation looking to ths
further conservation of our national re
sources, and the subject is one of such
importance as to require a mors detailed
; and extended discussion than can be en-
tered upon in this communication. For
1 that reason Z shall take aa early eppor
j tunny to send a special message to Coo
I greas on the aubjtct of the improvement
of our waterways, upon ths reclamation
and irrigation of arid, semi-arid and swamp
I lands .""upon the preservation of our forests
j and the reforesting of sustabls areas; upon
the reclassification of the public domain

Vstleaal area of Health.
For a vary considerable period a move
ment has been gathering strength, sevect
aily among the members of ths medical
si of slew, m fsrer ef a rem centra tion ef
the lnsfrnments of the national govern
ment which have to do with ths promo
tion of public health. In the nsture of
things, the medical department of the army
and the medical depirtment of the navy
must be kept se-parate. But there seems
to he no reason why all the other bureaus
rnfl offices In the general government
which havs to do with the public health
or subjects akin thereto should not be
united In a bureau to be called the
"Bureau of Pubilc Health." This would
necessitate the transfer of ths marine
hospital service to such a bureau.
Seaal-Ceateaaial ef Ne-ro Freedesa.
The year 1513 will mark the fiftieth an
niversary of the issuance of the emancipa
tion proclamation granting freedom to ths
negroes. It seems fitting thst this event
should be properly celebrated. Already a
movement. has been started by prominent
negroes, encouraged by prominent whits 1
people and the press. Ths south especially
Is manifesting Its Interest In this move
ment It is suggested that a proper feirm ef
celebration would be an exposition to
show the progress ths negroes have made,
not oniy during their period of freedom,
but also from the tlm of their coming to
this country.
I heartily indorse this proposal, and re
quest that the executive be authorized to
appoint a preliminary commission of not
more than aeven persons to consider care
fully whether or not it Is wise to hold
such an exposition, and if so, to outline a
plan for the enterprise. I further recom
mend that such preliminary commission
serve without salary, except as to their
actual expenses, and that an appropriation
be made to meet such expense.
Conclaaloa.
I havs thus. In a message compressed
as much as the subjects will permit, re
ferred to many of the legislative needs of
the country, with the exceptions alresdy
noted. Speaking generally, the country Is
In a high state of prosperity. There Is
every reason to believe that ws are on
the eve of a substantial business expansion,
and we have garnered a harvest unexampled
In the market value of our agricultural
products The high prices which such prod
ucts bring mean great prosperity for the
farming community, but on the other hand
they mean a very considerably Increased
burden upon those classes In the community
whose yearly compensatlan does not expand
with ths improvement In business and the
general prosperity. Various reasons are
given for the high prieea The proportionate
Increase in the output of gold, which today
Is the chief medium of exchange and la in
soma respect! a measure of value, fur
nishes a substantial explanation of at least
part of the Increase In prices. Ths Increase
In population and ths more expensive mode
of living ef the people, which have not
been accompanied by a proportionate In
crease In acreage production, may furnish
a further reason. It la well to nots that
the Increase In the coat of living ia not
eonflned to this country, but prevails ths
world Over, and that those who would
charge Increases In prieea to the existing
protective tsriff must meet the fact that
the rise in prices has taken place aimoai
wholly In those products of the factory and
farm In respect to which there has been
either no Increase In the tariff or In many
Instances a very considerable reduction.

New Contract
for Lighting
Knocked Out
City Attorney Picked So Many rUwi
ia it that Council Will
Begin Anew.
City Attorney Burnam sent an opinion
to the council committee of the whole
Monday afternoon, to the effect that the
proposed five-year contract with the Elec
tric Light company, for lighting the streets
of Omaha, was all to the bad. He found -0
much fault with the ordinance embodying
the contract that the committee decided
to file It away and have the city attorney
daw up an entirely new contract
Council will Insist that this be for a
shorter term than five years, and will be
aleing the lino of ths present contract,
whleh expires December SI. This for the
reason that if all ths receipts from ths
sceupatlon ta gas Into the general fund,
ar.d none into ths lighting fund, ths latter
will fall a good many thowaasds ahert of
meeting ths needs ef the city. "Ge slow,
on an open contract If necessary," was ihe
rule adopted by ths committee concerning
the street lighting.
Councilman Berka will this evening ir
troduce a measure to put the Capitol ave
nue market house up for sile to ths h'gh
est bidder, or. fa'ling a satisfactory so
lution by this method, that It be torn down
and the material sold. He served notice
to that effect on his fellow councilmen.
A favorable report will be made tonight
on the request of the fire and poiice board
for $.) to equip ths police department
with automobliea
Matters put over for later consideration
wars: The proposed lnstsllatlon of a rew
fire and police alarm system, the Locust
street viaduct, a permanent scheme for
decorative lighting. Dodgs street viaduct
Ths latter measure will be threshed out
at a public hearing Saturday morning next
at W o'clock. Th proposed new office of
city statistician will also bide a later ap
pearance, perhaps. The committee ilaced
ths resolution looking to Its creation cn
