HC Deb 02 June 1892 vol 5 cc452-3
COLONEL JODRELL-COTTON(on behalf of Mr. BRUNNER,) Cheshire, Northwich

I beg to ask the Postmaster General whether he can arrange to facilitate the prepayment in cash, instead of stamps, of postal matter at one post office in each borough and one in each county constituency during the General Election?

SIR JAMES FERGUSSON

I am sorry that I cannot adopt the suggestion, which on the face of it is desirable, as such transactions require more supervision than can be given, especially in small offices, at a time when the work is unusually heavy.
