the government. That is the compensa-
tion these men are receiving under
the amount paid by the Postmaster
General of $500 a year. requiring in
twenty-five out of thirty cases the use
of two horses. Now I submit to the
House whether this is a fair computa-
tion Witch 1 say to you that this is bas-
ed on a showing made for the average
cost of feeding and bedding a horse of
35.7 cents a day: an average cost of
shoeing a horse. 5 cents a day; an over-
age investment in horses of $91.40. the
actual amount paid by these men: an
average investment in wagons and
slcighs of $66: an average investment
for harnesses. etc.. of $24.60. Taking
that on what i claim to be an exceed-
ingly low basis, the amount received by.
these carriers in peculiarly advantage—
ous circumstances has been thirty-eight
cents a day.
"Now i am aware that this is a new
service but i wal’it to say to you that
in the. beginning of this service when
the petitions began to come in from
li‘airfield county for the establishment
of rural free delivery. I went to the
Post Oflicc Department and i said. ‘i
do not like “~89? this thing done. in
that way. i want it done on a business
basis. I do not believe. in thc estalr
lishmcnt of isolated routes. 1 wish
you would wait in Fairfieid county un.
til you can ruralizc the whole- county
and do it economically and cfiiciently.‘
The Postmaster General looked over
the maps. looked over the situation in
regard to the post offices and decided
that he would rurullzc Fairficld county.
and it was. the second county in tlw
l‘nitcd States that was so treated.
Having lltc systcm well established
thcrc. i do not think I nccd say a
word :15 lo the desire of the pcoplc
that it may be continnod and continued
efficiently; but having it done under
these circumstances, i believe that tho
tabulation l have submitted here is as
favorable to the government as it can
possibly be made.
”Now i know very well that the
chairman of the Committee on the
Post Office and Post Roads will reply
to what i have said and will state that
all over the l‘nited States the govern

ons and harnesses under contract. all

believe it is not impossible that a
method can be found by which the
cost of this service can be reduced.
The impression had been made that
the work cannot be promptly paid for.
and it is to be allowed to run over
from 20 to 45 days before these men
can get their pay. ’1 went to the cash-
ier in the office at Bridgeport. and said
‘Why cannot you pay those men on
the first day of the'month?‘ lie said
'lyan'; and i asked him ‘Wiil it cost
you any more.‘ He said ‘Not at all; I
can do it just as well then as not.‘ i
wrote to the department. and asked
why they could not pay those men
here at Bridgeport. for Fairfleld couns
ty. at the end of the month. instead of
sending the accounts down here to go
througlnthc hands of the clerks in the
auditor's office. and than six weeks at
terwards have the money sent back to
the men. They wrote back to me 'No.
it cannot be done.’ i wrote back to
them, and said it could be done. i knew
it could be done, that if they could
pay the forty city dollvcrcrs and the
railway mail clerks between New
York and lirldgeporL they could pay
those rural carriers. Afterwards they
wrote back that it was a good sugges-
tion; and that it would be. donc; and
the result was about three weeks ago
an ordcr was lssuod so that every rurri
at frcc delivery carrier of the United
States should be paid by the principal
city of thc state in which they reside.
on the first day of ii’obruary. Gentle-
men, all your carriers are to receive
their pay within five days front the
time work has been done. in our state
we. havo weekly payments. We do not
believe that it is well to hold pay from
men for It} (luvs and thou hold it 80
days afterwards." (Applause)
Governor (.ieorgc. P. McLean is in
Washington for a few days' visit. He
is accompanied by his executive sec-
retary. John i... Robinson. Both of
them are stopping at the residence of
Conunandcr and Mrs. Cowlcs. of the
Navy. Commander Cowicu is the
brother-in-lnw of President Roosevelt.
Tlicy have a summer residence at
Farmington. and Governor McLean
has met them in this way. Speaking
of his visit here. the. Governor said:
“it has no political signification at all.
Neither am 1 here on any official visit.
1 am simply anti purely visiting Com-
mander and Mrs. Cowies. whom i have
known for some firm. The report.
that the President asked mc to come
down and confer with him on the sub-
ject of the district. judgoahip is not
true. i have an invitation to dinc
with the President at the White HouSc
tonight. but this of course is simply a
social function.“
The visit of the Governor at this
time caused many to wonder if he,
came here on official business. The
fact that the Adjutant General of the
state is also here seemed to indicate
this, but the governor's assurance was
quite to the contrary. The Adjutant
ieneral. George M. Cole. however. has
decided to stay in Washington for a
few days to confer with the war dc
parttncnt in relation to the claim of
Connecticut for reimbursement for
moncy expended on the troops furn-
isbcd by tho state during iilt‘ Spanish
\‘\'ar. Sonic of this money has bccn
paid. but there is still quilc a balance
‘ille tho statc. and General (‘olc had
an interview this morning with the _.
auditor for the war tlcpartmcnt rcia»
live to the sonic.
General (‘olc also talked over with
the auditor the matter of intcrcst on
policy borrowed by the stoic to fit the
volunteer regiments during the Civil
War. Some of these claims have been
passed upon by the court of claims.
The claims of Maine. New Hampshire
and Rhodc island have been included
in the estimates of the secretary of
the treasury, and will be sent to t‘on-
cross. There is an cuort to have Con-
necticut included in thc list.

lately been named by the Governor as

his petition has been lodged with the
attorney general. Just what effect
this will have on the chances of Mr.
Hungerford is not known. but it
would seem as though it would make
the chances less for the appointment
of in Hartford county man.
it has been decided by the pastor-
lice department and the civil service
commission to put the carriers in the
rural frec- delivery service under the
civil service. This will put the en-
tire force of the rural delivery part
of the tlepartment in the classified ser-
vice.

The house committee on agriculture
today authorized Congressman Henry
to make a favorable report on its
litmry-Grout bill, to rcgulutc the sale
of niconiargurine. The new bill is
along the lilies of the old (trout bill.
but so modificd as to mcct. continued
cies that hnvc arisen during the past
year.
During Mr. Henry's visit to the
works of the Standard liuttcrinc (ioni-
pany, at liandgon, last week. he. was
struck with the case with which the
old Grout bill could be circumvented.
lie had there an opportunity of seeing
where stnall packages of butteriuc
could be colored through a simple one
oration by a few drops of anato. or
other coloring ‘matter. thus giving an
opportunity to small dealers to nullify
the provisions of thc original bill on
their own premises. For the purpose
of overcoming this probable fraud. the
dealers arc classed. in the new bill. as
manufacturers and are subject to the.
‘samc regulations; but the bill allows
privatc individuals to subject the oleo
to any process for consumption of
themselves or their guests.
The National Dairy I‘nion on the
receipt of this information wired its
congratulations to Mr. Henry and pro-
nounced the new bill an improvement
on any mcasurc previously introduced
and considered. Mr. Henry will make.
the report on this bill to the House in
two or three days. and an effort will
be madc to get curly consideration of
it. so as to send it to the Senate in
time to have it pass this session.
