DEVELOPMENT OF THE POSTOF-
FICE DEPARTMENT.

July 1 1085 The Most Per-
feet System Known.

I no postage on newspapers sent from
the office of publication nnd providing
for the Immediate delivery or letters nt
all Iho .larger postolllces went Into cf-
fecljitly 1st and serves lo mark another
step In the direction of what many be-
lieve wo shall reach within Iho next de-
cade viz.: one cent Icier postage. The
country however bos Utile to complain
of nt present In the mailer of chief post-
fUe nnd It Is duublfi'1 If In connection
wnu nny uepariiiieiu ui urn uuvem-
ment more has been done to nld the
tho marvelous Intellectual moral and
material development of Iho country
than has been done by the Postofllcc
department ltcdttcllon of postage
rates lias certainly Hilly kept paco with
our growth as a people nnd tlio succes-
sive reductions have Indicated very ac-
curately our phenomenal growth and
progress.
When our Postolllce department wns
organized under the Confederation In
I7NI the rales on uomcatio lelleis. or
letters for any plnco wltnln the United
States were "."or each piece of patter
of which a single letter or let-
ter packet tuny be composed"
under -to miles 8 ccnls; undtfr IX) miles
10 cents: under I M) miles 121 cents; under
300 miles 17 cents; ruler oUU miles. 2!)
cents: over GOO miles 'io cents theso
rates remained In force until the act of
Mnrch 3 1M0. when the following
schedule went Into force: For n single
letter carried not over 30 miles G) cents;
less thnn 0 miles 10 cents; lets than 1MI
miles 12) cents; less than 100 mllex. 18
cents; over 100 miles 23 cents. Provis-
ions for mailing newspapers wero ns
follows: Under 100 miles or within the
Stnto wicrc publlthed 1 rent; over 100
miles anu out ot ino stnie ij cents.
These rates continued In ellcct until
by the act of March 3 I&J2 they were
modllled ns follows: For each letter
weighing less than half nn ounce If car-
ried less than 3U0 mUos ft cents; over 300
miles 10 cents; each additional half
ounce double rules; drop letters deliv-
ered from the olllco where posted 2
cents. The newspaper rates then estab-
lished must bo regarded ns something ot
a curiosity the legislators or that day
evidently not favoring wbnt have since
become known as "blanket" sheets.
Thoso were not tho terms cither or
triple quadruple or quintuple Sunday
editions. The rates were: For papers
containing less than 1UO0 Bquaro Inches
1 cent each It delivered within the Stnte
where printed nnd mailed or out or the
State but within 100 miles or publication
ofllcc; for any greater distance 1 cents
each; If conveyed less than 30 miles free.
Papers developing enterprise enough
measure over 1U00 square Inches were
charged magazine postage which was
2 cents for the llrst ounce and 1 cent
for each additional ounce or fraction of
an ounce for any dlslnnco whatever.
Hound hooks wero iiumallable. Car-
riage by private Individuals on mall eur-
1 lanes or by express was also prohib-
ited. Two years later In 1817 transient
rewspapcr rates were raised lo threo
ccnls ami prepayment wns required:
postage on unlimited circulars wns raised
li'om 2 cents to 3: newspaper postage to'
O.egon and California was placed at -II
Cents and letters via Chagtesand Pana-
ma at 40 cents and between nost towns
'n California at 12 cents 'ihete rates
give n suggestion of tho social end olvil
conditions on the Pncillo coast at that
time.
In 1SI0 postage on transient now sim-
pers wns reduced to ordinary rates but
the prepayment provision was main-
tained. In U'.'il a radical change wnB
made In postal rates by defining tbo
slnglo letter by weight Instead of by
piece at a hair ounce or under nnd the
rates were also greatly cheapened. Up
to this time the postage bad been the
same whether prepaid or not. The
rales then adopted were ns fol-
lows : For a single letter tin-
der 3CD0 miles 3 cents If prepaid
otltciwlie S cents; over 3000 miles (J
cents or 12 cents if not iirennld. The
postage on newspapers wn'c.t nnu Dc sn
almost prohibitory In the early dayst nil
bad been maintained nt high 'rates until
that time was then greatly rcduoed
Weekly newspapers to ttctuai subscrib-
ers In the samo county where the pnner
was published wero made free; fo" dis-
tances under CO miles nnd out or the
county ft cents n quarter; over SO rnd
under 300 miles. Ill cents: over 300 nnd
under 1000 miles 1ft cents; over 100(1 and
under 2C00 miles 20 cents; over 2000 nnd
under 1000 miles 2'i ccnls; over 1030
mneau cents.
Postage on transient newspapers and
circulars was uso reduced and books
were for the first time admitted to the
tnalls lf weighing leas thar. 32 ounces.
in lajj anaagnta in iito.istlgut changes
were made In the oostago rates both In
the direction of reouctldn but tho great
change was mado In IbUI when the rate
ofpo3tage on all domestlo letters was
made uniform tl-ougbout the Union at
3 cents for each half ounce or fraction
ttiereor. the quarterly postage onnews-
papers and periodicals was also mailt
unlfo'iii for nil distances at the fn"niv
ing rates: Weekly 5 cents n quarter;
30 cents nnd seven times a week 35
cents. In 1MI8 the law was again amend-
ed so as to allow weekly newspapers to
goto subscribers In the county free.
No inodlllcatlon or domestic letter
rates occiured artcr th's until tho postitl
law oflSS.! went Into ell'ect October 1st
of that your reducing the single letter
rate to two cents. In 1872 however an
Impoi.tint change was made in newspa-
per and periodical postage requiting
prepayment of postugo nt tie maPIng or
delivery olllco and In 1871 the law was
again changed requiring the prepay-
ment at the mailing olllco alone and re-
ducing the rate In this matter to two
cents n pound or frnotlon of a pound
Stamps and clamped envelopes were
first Introduced In 18.11 the registry or
valuable letters In 1653 the carrier-delivery
system ror largo cities In 1E03 the
money-order system In 1S04 and the
postal cards nt ono cent each In 1S72.
The postal system of tbo United
Slates has become one ofthe most per-
fect In existence and the Improvements
made have in n marked degroo kept
pace Willi while at the same time they
have assisted the material Intellectual
and soolal progress of the country. The
Poslofllco department lias during all our
history been kept practloally self-supporting
the most marked exceptions lo
this rule oecurrlng In the year Imme-
diately following the largest reductions
