Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mail Pay on the Burlington Railroad: Statements of Car Space and All Facilities Furnished for the Government Mails and for Express and Passengers in All Passenger Trains on the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railroad The present system under which the government employs railroads to carry the mails was established in 1873, thirty-seven years ago. Under this system, the Post Office Department designates between what named towns upon each railroad in the country a so-called "mail route" shall be established. Congress prescribes a scale of rates for payment per mile of such mail route per year, based upon the average weight of mails transported over the route daily, "with due frequency and speed," and under "regulations" promulgated from time to time by the Post Office Department. To this is added a certain allowance for the haulage and use of post office cars built and run exclusively for the mails, based upon their length. The annual rate of expenditure to all railroads for mail service on all routes in operation June 30, 1909, was $44,885,395.29 for weight of mail, and for post office cars $4,721,044.87, the "car pay," so-called, being nine and five-tenths per cent of the total pay. The payment by weight is, therefore, the real basis of the compensation to railroads. The rate itself, however, varies upon different mail routes to a degree that is neither scientific nor entirely reasonable. The rate per ton or per hundred pounds upon a route carrying a small weight is twenty times greater than is paid over a route carrying the heaviest weight.
