city as to the desirability of introducing a system of free delivery of letters by carriers, The Guardian has prepared the coupon printed on another page of this issue, giving to all persons interested the opportunity of expressing their views for or against the proposed change. We trust there may be a general response from all citizens who have any preference in the matter.

fects of the present system, notably in re- gard to the failure of a great many of per- sons to receive the letters addressed to them. Hundreds of persons do not visit the Post Omce for months at a time. In the meantime letters reach the Post Oiilce addressed to such persons, and not being called for. these letters are sent to the

THE CARRIER SYSTEM.

Desiringto test public oplnionlu this

Few are perhaps aware of the great de~

Dead Letter Otilce. Enquiry at the Post Office elicits the information that from one hundred to one hundred and twenty- tive letters addressed to persons in Char- lottetown are thus disposed of weekly throughout the year.

No possible blame attaches to tha post

Their business is to sort t he letters, place in boxes those addressed to bcx~holdcrs and to deliver atlthc general delivery any mail matter for other persons when called for. They cannot be expected to carry the letters to the persons addressed, nor

have they any legal permit or authority to do so. And yet there is sometimes a world of uarecorded anxiety, sorrow and heartbreak behind these undellvered letters. Estrangements between dear friends and members of families losing all

trace of each other are frequent results.

Merchants who make large use of the`

mails in sending clmulafs or bills to their customers sometimes object that there would he additional postage to pay under the carrier system. This is true, but i with it would come the certainty that their letters reached the persons addres- sed instead ol being sent to the Dead Letter Ofllce in hundreds and thousands as is now the case. A fair consideration of this fact will, we believe; convince our merchants that the carrier system would

be of great advantage to them ami much preferable to the plan now in vogue. Be that as it may. there can be no doubt that the carrier system would he an lnestl- mablc boon to Y many who receive only

the Post Office every da\y,as well as to hundreds of others who would have their letters brought to their doors in- stead ofmaking a daily tramp to the Post Office, often in inclement weather.

’l`hc following is an extract from a

agar ofthe London & Lancashire Life Insurance Co. for Canada:

We regret the shameless conditions

which have been revealed through the investigations now being carried on by the couiinlttce of the legislature in the Mute of New York. The great New York companies appear- to have become unwieldy. Resignations have been forced in one company and high odiclals must go in others. Their deeds are bare-faced scandals and all high principled honest insurance men blush to know that such conditions could have been allowed to grow and continue. Metbinks there will be aturuing toward British institutions and I note that the principles upon whlchthay do business are favorably comnientad upon by tha press, and some leading American Officials, wl.o are now in trouble. Who can say what the ie- sults are lo bil One thing is certain. and that- is John Bull will still continue to do business (life insurance particularly) at the same old stand, and in the same sterling way. Agolden opportunity is ours, and it will be our own fault if we do not avail ourselves of it. Now just it word about the position attained by 'il B company.- Our new business in Canada for the first nine months ofthe current yearshowe anlucrease of 20% compared with that ol' 1904. The `lncome has ln- creased $30,Ml)for the same period and amounts to $36l,il2t(l, while the assets ave increased by $216.72), and stand at S8,430,940,H) of clid -first-class securities, upon which not one dollar of interest was:over due and unpald_ at the close of the year. The income of the Company, from all sources. amounted during tha year 1004 to $1,840,442. Tile amount add edto,the funds as the result of the year's operations amounted to $688,467, raising the funds in hand to $10,002,386. The Company occupies an enviable posi- t'ou among atcrllnglifa offices and car ries upon itabooks upwards of forty million dollars sums assured. The ratio of expense in Canada to total income is 15.9%, indicating the conservatism cxer~ claed by those who direct the aflhirs of tha Company. Thepollclei- of the Ccm~ panynreworliiwviilc, free from restrict- ions altorealdance, travel or occupat- lan, and are incontcatnhla and non-for faltable. The business aifhlru of the Company respecting Canadian business an aduilniigtcred wholly in Canada. Tha funds earned in Canada are invented and retained in the country, affording Can. adians all the advantages of a Home Oompany with the farther protection and ahfo-guard of English connection. ,Lewis H.
