Adi Matters.


 These have just been thoroughly
 overhaulej by Major Ben Truman and
 reported upon by him in S very direct
 manner The Sentinel reporter cor.
 nered MT. Truman as he passed through
 Yuma on his way ont of the Territory.
 and obtained from him Ihe following synopsis of his reports on the Arizona
 postal routes:
 Major Truman reported upon the condition Of tie route between Ehr enberg and Sigma. and Mineral Park. and clal'hed that ihe contractors, who are also ihe successful bidders upon lhiry odd other lettings, should be forced tO carry the mails as they agreed to in putting in lheir bids. It seems that the firm who bid on this route. not knowing The prices of feed. labor. &c-, got stuck ID The contract and have failed to put on service. MT. T. also paid his respects To Route 41i02, between Yuma and Prescott He found that the contractors on this route made no preteusions of getting into Prescott on schedule time. During the month of Angus: the mails failed nine times of getting into Prescott at all. and only six times during the month did they arrive On schedule time. Hardly al week passed for months that a bag was not lost, or that pouches were not thrown off tO tighten wagon loaded with passengers or freight Instead of carrying a daily mail 10 EhrenberC and Wickenburg, accord ng to their contract mails are only carried to and from these two places every other day He also discovered that the contractors left Antelope Valley entirely out. which is not according 10 their con-. tract.
 The Postal Agent will recommend that the tri-weekly mail between Wick enburg and Phenix be made daily. and thus make the mail system in ArI-. z1na complete; provided lhe contrac- tors carry the mails according to the terms of their contracts.
 Major Truman has also recommend !. ed that the mail route from Tucson be from Prudencia Wells to Ari-I vaca, which will give general satisfac- Ii n. He visited most of the post | offices in the Territory. gave instruc- ! tions Co pOsima>ters, and corrected many abuses. SD he thinks He also new offices at Data creek. Antelope valley. AZlec, etc '. and left blanks with parties interested in the establishment of other new Of ! fees.
 Besides all this. Major Truman has reported upon some forty depreciation ! cases, and has. evidently, made a clean sweep of business in his line. We. have heretofore taken occasion 10 con-. mend his order relative tO The starting out of men in case of mail robberies. | by the nearest pos'masters. md we are concur with us ID our views ! upon said order.
