New Yurk papers are telling a story of th<> iuettciency of Mi. Burlei^^ k<?v crumcnt aervice which varies from muny uof its kind in that it involve* the three ^raiu-lus of his official activitj^s in oiie : . :i n-,t< lion TT . One Thurmfn.v retvntly at 10 u Philadelphia physician *'f?t A "ru*h" telegram to l>r. 8ila? 1*. UwiH', of New York, giving street ami number, . unk ing that a certain aerum in bin posses sion bo himt at once, tho sender of the message having a patiout in a critical condition who might be helped. At the latest the serum should have been de livered early the next morning. Ah it developed later the telegram did not ar rive at i)r> tyeebeV oAoa until 5:20 p. m. on Friday, ? little more than thirty one houra after it was tiled at Philadel phia. Meanwhile the Philadelphia doctor was trying to get into communication with Dr. Iteebe, who had had an instrument iu his office for yeara, but connection oould not -be ma<le. -The Philadelphia office staled that the Now York ,physi* clan did not have a telephone. This deadlock continued from Friday morning until the afternoon of Haturday, when telephone connection wa? finally estab lished aud it wan learned tyat on Friday evening, after receipt of the telcfram, T)r. Reebe had prepared a package of serum, placed a special delivery stamp on it and mailed it with his own hands When he learned that it had udfc arrived he prepared another package and sent It by special messenger, who reached bis destination two hours before the mail parage marked "urgent" had arrived, after being twenty-four hours on the way, with train* every hour arid the distance mly ninety miles. In the transaction described Mr. Bur lesonLs mail service and his government ?outrolled telephone and telegraph ser vice all took part and all proved alike 'efficient -when most needed. Incident ally- the unfortunate patient died about mi hour before the serum came to hand. It might be supposed hat Mr. Burleson, who in Keenly anxious to see government IVWuershPp s v>f . telephone aud graph TftM tened on the <0r>untry permanently, would endeavor to oreatq support for his idea by improving instead of ruining the ser 'vice, but either his intelligence or ability, or possibly both, do not reach that far. ??The Denver Times. Wnen a business man " sends an im portant telegranu, would it if^t be p mat ter o? great satisfaction to know that the message had been delivered promptly? Prior to government control tho tele graph companies would send "tracers" to find out if a message had reached its proper destination. Not so now. /'Pay (rtir money and take chances" seems to be the motto of the railway and tele graph companies. The sooner the country get* back to pre-war basis, and the sooner the rail ways, teflegraph and telephone lines go .back to private owners the better will the people like it. Restoring France.
