Our Bigeiow news letter intended
for last weeks ADVANCE did not reach
us until Friday morning. The Bigelow
stamp says, "Bigelow. Oct. 49," The
Worthington stamp says, "Worthine.
ton, Oct. 81" Here is a letter which is
two days in coming eight miles. by rail
at that.
This failure of our news letters 20
reach us has become 80 common that
we cannot help thinking there is 1nten-
tional interference or delay somewhere.
At all events, it gets worse and worse,
and the utter helpiessness Of an editor
or Of the whole community to correct
these abuses is amazing. Numerous
formal complaints have been sent to
the department. but 80 far we do not
know that amy attention has been paid
tn them.
