Excerpt from The Relation of the Federal Government to the Railroads: Or a Review of the Controversy Between the Post Office Department of the United States and the Railways in the Respect to the So-Called Postal Car ServiceThe Department sends orders on all the post offices within a certain distance of our line to collect as part of our pay. A great many 1ailroad companies communicate with such postmasters as are convenient and let the rest go, send back the orders as nothing collected. I had charge of that particular business on the N. Y. Central. I made it a rule to reach every postmaster on which an order came to us. Some of them were five, six, and even as much as ten miles from the line of our road, and had to be reached either by sending a messenger expressly, or writing to the postmaster asking what money he had, telling him Of the order we had to collect, and upon yhis informing us, sending him the receipt signed, and asking him to remit, and we have had to pay postage on all letters sent on this business. These things, and others of the same kind, in the aggregate, enter into and add largely to the cost of doing this service.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
