The mine amount was allowed by Congress for 1895 and 1890, but the money was not ased for the purpose intended, ta haa already been stated. In 1897, urban the McKinley administration came Into power, only half a doxna rural mail routes had been established, and these had been partially put into operation four years previously under President Harrbmo. Democracy did nothing during the Cleveland administration, except to block the wheels of progress. Now mark the difference when the Republicans came into power. Postmaster General Smith, unlike his predecessors, arged tha establishment of many new postal.

More the new rural 1st of routes have been Installed since tha July last than In any like period In tha department's history. While a due regard to economy must bo befit lu mind In the establishment of new routes, yet the extension of the rsrsl system must bo continued for reasons of sound public policy. No governmental movement of recent years haa resulted lu greater benefit to the people of the countaken lu try districts. Rural connection with the telenhoue, the blcyrle, and the trolley, accomplishes much toward lessening the Isolation of farm Ilfs and maklur It brighter, and mort attractive. Ia the Immediate past the lack of jnst suck facilities aa these has driven many of tbo mora active and restless young men and women from tbo farms to the cities, for they rehelled at louellneaa aad laek of mental companionship. It Is nuhralthy and undesirable for the titles to grow at the expense of the country, and rural free delivery Is not ouly a good thing In Itself, but Ia good because It Is one of the causes which check this nnwholeannw tendency toward tha nrliaa ranceut ration of our population at tbo expense ef the country districts. Tho foregoing quotations aro sufficient to show that Republican executives realised tha importance of tho rural delivery system to the farming communities and did everything in their power to extend It During President McKinley' first term establishment of routes had been given Much an impetus that by 1900 the errica Lad panned far beyond tbo experimental stage and Congress had approp- riated c tration at tbe present time, and that if it were a matter of choice with them aa elect ioa would be held this year. A national election alwaya interferes with business more or leas, and aa tho business of the ruuntry grows the feeling Increases that, in the absence of any reason for a change, a presidential election ia a dim tnrbing factor that might well ba dispensed with if tho constitution permitted. That is tbe situation at present. The great mass of tho people aro ao well satisfied with tho present administration that they do not desire a change, aud if the constitution did not require an tieriion to bo hold they would regard it Flatly Refused to Obey the Mandate of Con gress to Establish Routes, but Are ds Now Claiming th ta roatlaao tho Freoaat Adaslalatrotloa.
