We pu reliase Riipplies on Main st. and vii-inity becaue tbej are cheaper there. No one would hay less than now. It is bisr mistuko to think so. There eoulrt be no injury to the merchïints. Besides free delivery would bcnetit all classes. Nine-tenths of the people would like IV- nlne-tcnths want t, and it' any livine near the PO did not care tor It, they could wet their mails as now. People would be attracted here by this fact, and it would help boom the towii. Again, why is it that if it would Injure Ann Arbor merenants tlmt Jnckson aud Kalamazoo merchants aie not working toot h and nuil toget rid of free deliTery' Merehants in otlier places do hot light airainst it. Dld it ever oocur that opposilion by the merchants on Main st. to free delivitry mifTht re-act, that the people in the remnter rrdi might dei-m it Jntt to uit tlkding on Main st.
