THE POSTAL SUBSIDY.

The question of the Colony's Contribu tion to the Mail Subsidy is a grave one, and, while we agree with the Committee of the Chamber of Commerce in the

opinions they have expressed on both aspects of the question, we think they are a little Indefinite, and have omitted to notice some of the more important features of the case.

Union has, as the Committee's letter points out, and as we all know, practically eliminated the question of distance from all postal calculations; a letter is carried to any Union country far or near for 24d. There are not to be found in the Colony, so far as we can ascertain, any Post Office statistics, blue-books, reports, or figures of any sort, except our own, and these are so Imperfect and so muddied that they are of very little use. There is not in the Colony, we believe, a single copy of the British Posmtaster General's Annual Report. We know in a general way that that Department of the Govern ment makes a handsome annual profit of over three millions of pounds sterling out of the entire Post Office business. We presume this is calculated after payment out of the gross receipts of all postal subsidles, and that therefore, the Post Office costs the British taxpayer nothing. The post office, business pays for itself and leaves a surplus over which goes in relief of the general taxation at home. Why should we then contribute anything? The Military Contribution Is a different thing, justified on different grounds. The Army and Navy are paid for out of the taxes levied In the United Kingdom, and we are asked to help to relieve the taxpayer of some portion of the burden. In connection with the Post Office there is no burden in
