There is no other branch of the public service with which the entire populotlml of Canada is in so close touch as that of the Post Ofilce Department, and there is no other department which has shown better management during a number 01' years past. Sir William Mulock well earned his titular distinction by his great work in wnnection with the post odiee department oi Canada and our postal re- lations with other portions of the Em- pire. Wiien he was called to his present ofilcial pesiticn we had a three cent letter rate within the Dominion and the rate to the Mother Country was dve cents for the ordinary letter. Not only W¢N M1680 rates in vogue, but the Department was so far from being self-sustaining that there waaa deiicit of $781,152 on the transactions of the year F596. 'lhe people had for yearn desired a re~ duction of the postal rates, but successive Postmaeters General had pointed out that it was entirely impracticable. Hr. Mulock grappled with the question re- solutely. He saw where the expenses of the service could be reduced and he re- duced them and as a result of the econ- omies thus effected he was able to give the people a two cent letter rate, a re- duced rate to the Mother Country and other British possessions, and better still was able after a few years to show us the last cf the long series of post ofllce de- ficits. lie has since felt enabled to make a generous increase in the very small salaries of country postmasters. We are glad to ilud that he is now able to follow the exceedingly favorable report of last year with one still more favorable. We have said there was a postal delcit cf $781,152 in 1876.
