Bureau of Health. For a very considerable period a movement has been gathering strength, especially among the member of th medical profession, in favor of a concentra-' tlon of the instrument of th national government which have to do with th promotion of public health. In the nature of things, the medical department of the army and the medical department of th navy must be kept separata. But there seems to be no reason why all th other bureau and offices In th general government which have to do with the pub-Ho health or subjects akin thereto should not be united In a bureau to called the "bureau of public health."

Second-Class Mall Matter. The deficit every year In the post-office department Is largely caused by the low rate of postage of 1 cent a pound charged on second-class mall matter, which Includes not only newspapers but magazines and miscellaneous periodicals. The actual loss growing out of the transmission of this second-class mall matter at 1 cent cumstances upon which this opinion is based would necessitate a lengthy discussion, and I postpone It until the first convenient opportunity shall arise to send to congress a special message upon this subject.

The statistics of 107 show that second-clnss mall matter constituted 63.91 per cent of the weight of all the mail, and yielded only 5.19 per cent of the revenue. The figures given are startling, and show the payment by the government of an enormous subsidy to the newspapers, magazines and periodicals, and congress may well consider whether radical steps should not be taken to reduce the deficit In th post-office department caused by this discrepancy between the actual cost of transportation and the compensation exacted therefor.
