governed in nv statement by the fact that some
OF the smaller cities, whose postmasters conduct
both branches with one set OF clerks accom-
modated people during the usual business

must admit, that the present arrangement in
Washington excludes thousands from the adj

has an equal number of temporary residents to
this city, who have business interests in the
