Government control of telegraphs dies in session
The House committee on post offices discussed Wanamaker's hybrid plan to run government messages over private wires but took no action. The Republican majority favored the scheme while Democrats dissented. Even with future favorable reports the bill has little chance before adjournment. Democratic members warn government control would threaten limited government and invite excess, delays, and corruption. Farmers Alliance leaders may push it next Congress but lack Democratic support.
