In the early days of the United States, postal charges were paid by the recipient, and charges varied with the
distance carried. In 1825, the US Congress permitted local postmasters to give letters to mail carriers for home
delivery, but these carriers received no government salary and their entire compensation depended on what they
were paid by the recipients of individual letters. In 1847 the US Post Office Department adopted the idea of a
postage stamp, which of course simplified the payment for postal service but caused grumbling by those who
did not like to prepay. Besides, the stamp covered only delivery to the post office and did not include carrying it
to a private address.
The confusion and congestion of individual citizens looking for their letters was itself enough to discourage
use of the mail. It is no wonder that, during the years of these cumbersome arrangements, private letter-carrying
and express businesses developed. Although their activities were only semilegal, they thrived, and actually
advertised that between Boston and Philadelphia they were a half-day speedier than the government mail. The
government postal service lost volume to private competition and was not able to handle efficiently even the
business it had.
Finally, in 1863, Congress provided that the mail carriers who delivered the mail from the post offices to
private addresses should receive a government salary, and that there should be no extra charge for that delivery.
But this delivery service was at first confined to cities, and free home delivery became a mark of urbanism. As
late as 1887, a town had to have 10,000 people to be eligible for free home delivery. In 1890, of the 75 million
people in the US, fewer than 20 million had mail delivered free to their doors.
