Account of the discovery that many of the smaller offices were defrauding the goverrimentf out of what legitimately belohge'd td It by trading stamps to retail merchants at a small discount, these merchants in turn trad ing them to wholesale merchants ,in larger towns tor. goods. The extent o, the increase in their , pay which som country postmasters " must have gained cannot be determined with .anything like accuracy, but must nave Deen con siderable, as is attested by the last quar terly report sent to the ppstofflce, de partment by the postmaster in thlsfcity. This report shows an increase of nearly $1,000 in the sale of stamps at this office during three months, over any. father period of the same length since the present incumbent has been irt;omce 1 . .

A report made to the postoffice depart ment prior to the enactment of the law showed; that thlsi fraudulent practice prevailed very, extensively throughout the country, and when this fact is taken into consideration0 it will be readily seen that, the government must have lost many thousand dollars, which the cross-roads postmasters pocketed and pro-rated on- the 'basis of competitive ability in tradipg stamps,! ,..
