ARP CARRIED MAILS
Bill Tells of the Difference Now and
the Long Ago.
POSTAGE RATES WERE ENORMOUS
Receiver of Letter Paid the Postmas
ter on Delivery of Letter ? Benefits
of Cheap Postage.
Now you young people, girls and
boys, excuse me for telling you a story
about the old limes. Sixty-four years
age, when I was 12 years old, my father
was the postmaster in our town and
bad to make contracts for carrying the
mail to other neighboring towns. He
gave these contracts to needy men an 1
the pay was generally one dollar a day.
One of these men got sick and my father
made me take his place and ride
the mail to Roswell all winter. It was
2u miles away and I had to ride there
and hack in a day, and he paid me the
dollar for every trip. It was a bitter
winter and sometimes when 1 got home '
I had to be helped off the horse, for '
I was frozen up and helpless. But 1 j
was a tough and hardy hoy and always I
ready for the next trip. On my first
ride the good old women on my route I
did not know me. They used to knit ,
socks and send them to town by the ,
old man to sell and carry back some j
c offee or sugar or indigo, or copperas,
or some little thing, hut they didn't
know me. and I remember that one old
woman came out to the gato and said"
"Are you the mail boy?" And I laughed
and said: "Yes. mam, I am not a female
hoy." She smiled and said: "You
are mighty little to carry bundles, but
I would like for you to take a couple
of pairs of socks and bring me back
the pay in ccffce if you will. I'll give
you a little bag to put it in and you can
hang it on to the horn of the saddle."
Of course I did. for I always nked to
oblige the women, and besides my father
kept a store and got the trade.
Sometimes 1 had as much outside of
the mail bag as there was inside. 1
made fourteen silver dollars that winter
and felt rich.
But I want to tell you about the mail
business as it was then. There were
no stamps or stamped envelopes?nor
any other kind of envelopes. Wo wrote
on a long paper called foolscap. It got
| that name from the watermark whicn
| was a fool's cap and bells stamped on
the paper. After writing we could fold
the sheet up to the size of a letter and
slip one fold in the other?thumb paper
fashion?then seal it with a wafer
and address it. The wafers were round
and thin and were made of tlour paste
and when held on the tongue a moment
got soft and sticky. In my young days
the postage, was paid at the end of the
line by the one who received the letter.
It was 12 1-2 cents if it did not come or
go outside of the State?18 3-4 if from
I or to an adjoining state and 25 cents
I if still farther off. But if it was to go
, to California it had to be prepaid and
I sent by Wells and Fargo's express and
i cost a dollar and was a month on the
11101 mill It UI 11. rsow it costs
only 2 cents anil takes only four days.
That overland express almost made us
boys crazy. They published a hook
called "Ten Years Among the Mail
Ilags" and it had pictures in it?pictures
of hoys riding the mail on Indian
ponies?riding on a run of 10 miles in
an hour, and then he was lifted off of
| his pony and put on a fresh one for
[ another 10 miles. The boys had lo
weigh not less than sixty nor over
J nlnenty pounds and had to make 40
miles a day?20 oast and 20 west. It
j took about two hundred hoys and four
j hundred ponies to do the work and 1
j wanted to he one of the hoys mighty
I had. Part of the route was beset by
hostile Indians and the express comj
pany had to keep soldiers at these sta1
tions to guard the ponies, and the hoys
I had to keep a sharp lookout between
, the stations. One of the pictures show]
ed some Indians shooting at a boy as
he bent over on the pony's neck and
was flying like the wind. He had left
the track and taken roundance on the.u
and I thought that was heroic.
The letters were limited to a single
j sheet of paper and a thousand to a hag
1 and that made about twenty pounds of
mail. Ilesides the mail there were
some two-pony hacks with two drivers
and guns and these carried gold dust
from the mines to the eastern state
and were limited to two hundred
pounds, which wds worth noarly $50.uiH)
and was a tempting prize to both
white and Indian robbers. Hut the gold
express ran at irregular intervals and
nobody knew when it was coming.
Hut now about postage. Not many
foolish letters were written in those
days. It cost too much and made the
man mad when he had to pay 25 cents
or 18 3-4 or 121-2 cents for it. The
next one the writer would send would
not ho taken out and would go to
wasnington ns a (load letter. I reckon
you wonder why the postage was In
such curious amounts. Well, we didn't
have any decimal currency then?no
dimes or half dimes. The dollar was
divided Into sixteen parts instead of
twenty: one part was called a thrip,
which was fi 1-4 cents. Tlirlp is an
abbreviation for sevenponce. Two parts
was called a sevonpenco and its value
was 12 1-2 cents. I don't believe I have
seen a thrip or a sevonpenco in fifty
years. The government called them all
In and issued dimes and half dimes
I instead.
In ruminating about the wonderful
change in our postal laws since I was a
j boy I nm prepared to say thut nothlno
j that has been discovered or invented
, has wrought such beneficial results and
so much comfort to the people. What
plensure at home is more valued than
reception of letters from kindred and
' friends who are far away? Postage is
( only one-tenth what it used to be. but
' there are twenty times as many letters
written by every person who can write
and there are ten times as many to
; write them. The great northern mail
i used to come to our town once a week
I and n single sack in the boot of a stage
i contained it. Now five times that quantity
comes twice a day. I used to write
' about two letters a week and now 1
write twenty-five or thirty and receive
more than I wrlto. For I have quit answering
many letters that inclose no
stamp. The number of letters increas
es faster than the postage decreases.
' TVhou the postago bad to be paid at tl:
end of the line It was pretty hard to
receive a disagreeable letter nnd have
to pay for It. My father was a merchant
for nearly fifty years and sold
goods on a year's time, and sometimes
we had to write dunning letters to his
customers, lie wrote one to a very
slow man and got no answer, so he
wrote another and the slow man wrote
back that he would have to wait until
he* mn rip r. n nth or* ornn o nrl no nno#?(rn
was high and silver was scarce, he advised
a very limited correspondence.
He wrote another to a belated customer
at Warsaw and another and another
*?nd then got a reply which said :
"I have received your letters but thev
were a long time on the way. If yot?
had sent them round by Atlanta and
Marietta and Roswell I would have
gotten them sooner, for we have two
mails a week by that route, but only
one by the way you sent them. Hereafter
you had better send them that
way. Our mail system is very imperfect.
It takes six weeks for me to get a
letter from Jack, who is in the Arkansaw.
You remember Jack. But I am i
always glad to hear from you. Your !
friend. WILLIAM WATERS.
"P. S.?As for that account of last ;
year, which you say has run a long j
time? as the boy said to the molasses,
just let hr^ run. W. W."
1 wonder if our young people know i
who was our first postmaster general? |
He was the postmaster general before ,
the revolution and was turned out by
King George because he was suspected j
of being a rebel and his name was Ben- !
jamin Franklin. When the Declaration !
of Independence was j?assed 1ip cstab- i
lished an independent line and boycot- 1
ted the English system and afterwards I
organized a system of our own. Sir
Rowland Hill was the postmaster general
of England and in 17IU established
what was called the penny post. Bo- :
fore that tlie English merchants hired :
men to carry their letters. When the j
hat tie of the Waterloo was fought the
Rothschilds hired private carriers to j
bring them the news of the great bat- j
tie. English credit and bonds and con- :
sols were then away down to 2."> cents
on the dollar, for Napoleon was just
running rough shod over kingdoms and j
governments. The Rothschilds got the !
news of his defeat twenty-four hours
sooner than the bankers of London and >
they secretly bought up all the bonds 1
and stocks and consols they could find, i
and when the good news came of the
great victory these bonds and stocks !
! jumped up to par in a day and the i
j Rothschilds made many millions and |
| this was the beginning of their great j
fortune. It was a mean, dirty trick,
but they didn't care. For nearly a con- i
tury they have controlled the financies
of the civilized world and nations
could not go t.< war without consulting |
the Rothschilds. Rut now they have to ,
I take a bark s?at, for Pierpont Morgan
I and Rockefeller and a few others can
control more money than they can. But
j our postage has not yet got to the low,
est notch. The people say it must he

Beth comprehension. I received a let

tralia. They had cctne 12.000 miles for j
6 cents and found me. although there j
are half a dozen Car ersvilles in the !

Use of Revolvers.
i was present at tlio trial where a
man with a split-second watch timed
a very ordinary denizen of the border,
J who drew his six shooter and emptied
: it in a second and a quarter. It takes
! a tyro that long to pull trigger once
j when he is all ready. The experts do
not pull trigger at all. Long ago it
was demonstrated that it was vastly
quicker to file off the pawl that locks
a gun and trust to "fanning" the hummer
than It was to shoot even the
easiest of double-action revolvers in
tho ordinary way. This explains bow
it was possible for tlie famous mankillers
to accomplish marvels against
other and equally desperate men as
well armed as themselves.?Munsey's

I had been troubled a year, of!
and on, with constipation, biliousness
and sick headaches. One day
a friend asked me what the trouble
was.' When I told him he recommended
Ripans Tabulcs. That
evening I got a box, and after the
second box I began to feel so much
relief that I kept on with them. I
have Ripans Tabules always in the
house now and carry a package of
them in my pocket.
At drtirrgists.
The Five-Cent packet is enough for an
ordinary occasion. The family bottle,
00 cents, contains a supply for a year.
