Such being the case, many townspeople are at a loss to under- stand why the route was discontinued Friday. Julius Woodruff had charge of it and was carrier during the en- tire perfod. During the first yvear, 1902, 37,000 pieces of mail were de- livered, while in the last fiscal year between 175,000 and 180,000 pieces were-handled. The total number of pieces handled the month ending Fri- day evening amounted to 14,640, Whether the new plan will prove ef- fective, s agitating several citizens and the consensus. of opinion is a negative one.

Mr. Lanphear gave a number of | statistics to show how the nation would profit morally and financlally should John Barleycorn be sent into exile. In Plainville, he declared, the return from ljquor licenses, which is but a fraction of a mill in the tax rate, would quickly be offset by a reduc- tion in the cost of keeping the poor, should the saloons be banished.
