Agitation leads to investigation, and in
vestigation leads to truth" We have now
got to the bottom of the difficulty in regard
to mail service up the Minnesota Valley.
Mr.. Steele, who is Postmaster at Fort Smell
ling, informs us that the reason why our
papers do not reach their points of destina-
ton in the Valley in due time, is because
they always arrive at his post-office on Mon
days, about two hours after the oeekly mail,
going up the Valley, has left the Fort. They
are consequently compelled to take weeks
rest at Mr. Steele's Post Office.
Further: By the terms OF the schedule,
our postmaster is compelled to send a tri-
weekly mail to Fort Smelling, but only q
weekly mail goes beyond the Fort.
The difficulty can be obviated by making
the st. Paul office the point where the Min
nesota Valley mails shall be made up, indie
penden of Fort Smelling. As some of our
brother editors have suggested, it should be
daily instead of a weekly mail; or even
tri-weekly.
