Our Mail Facilities.

On Monday the STATESMAN announced
that orr mail facilities would lie greatly in
cre-sed in few days. snd that beside the
mail from the eas. via Frisco auG Portland,
-7e wOald have service via the Northern
Pacific. Appended we give letter from
CO... Ben Simpson, pnst-oiii,e Inspector,
through whose efficient efforts, the change,
which is so greatly to benefit Us. has been
brought about:
PORTLAND, Ogn., Nov. Is, 1882.
EDITOR WALIs WALLA STATESMAN: Sir {:
In answer TO your inquiry IN referenc" TO
DELAY IN transit of eastern mali to Wsl!a
Walla, l have to say that the order chang
irg the transit from the rorte from helton
70 perGleton, TO that by rail to San Fran
cisco, thence to Portland, Ogn., by steamer,
was intended to expriit as well as 20 't,er
nrote t the mail, as IT would be carried all
the way through by mail and steamer, and
under the present arrangement we will have
a steamer every three days with through
mail by rail from Portland to Walla Walls,
-fter the Goth of thus month. That will
give the people ct Walls WALL then mail
the next day after it arrives IN Portland. so
that YOU can readily see that the transit will
be quite rapid. iwil state further that about
the 18th of the present month there Will be
started through mail SIX times week from
Missoula, Montana. to Portland, Oregon,
over the line Of the Northern Pacific rail
road. There i. already sn eastern mail SIX
times a week to Mss Dula, SO that you can
ace .ha. the connection will be complete.
As 10 the exact time when the eastern mails
viii be ordered over that route will depend
upon the recommendation OF don, ii. j.
McKinsick, of San Francisco, Cal, super:n-
tendent of railway mail service for eight
divisions. Now, in conclusion, let NE say
that hope the good people OF Waiia "ala
will e,er Use a little patience as l an sure
in short time they will have no cause to
COMPLAIN of their mail facilities, as they
have Justly had in the past
Very Respectfully.

TIMER CULTURE ENTRIEs.-An evil
which has grown to great proportions, and
for which remedy il being eagerly sought,
is now engaging the attention OF Com

some Improvement. as the Law contemplates.
Under The law one year is allowed tor I'M

Who Should Come to this Country.

We have two communications to day from
persons in the east, asking severa! questions,
which summed up, are, who should come TO
this country. We answer for these an3
others; no one should think CT emigrating
without sufficient means for selfsupport for
al least short time after reaching this Sec
ton. Labor is a scarce article here Just now,
but not all those who emigrate care TO do
the rough sort Of work required; nor are al!
who come mechanics, so that suitable en-
pIoy ment Immediately upon arrival cannot
always be relied upon, and there is nothing
more discouraging to the new conner than to
become a subject OF public or private charity.
THIS caution applies particularly to heads of
families. who would be cruelty dereliet il
their duty to expose those depending on
them to the risk of destitution or hardship
on arrival here.
Good health is the first requisite Of a per-
son who proposes to emigrate to this coun.
try, with a view Of improving his condition
in life. Although the climate here is SO
favorable as to insure exemption from many
diseases which prevail IN other states, and to
promise relief IN certain ailments, the chances
are that emigration will prove a mistake in
the case of confirmed invalids vino are COM
PEELED to work for living.
Generally speaking. persons accustomed to
ordinary mechanical labor, and who unite
frugal habits with persevering industry viii
run no risk IN coming here, but individuals
unwilling to work, or accustomed to live by
their wits, are not wantei-except by the
police force OF city and county. Idlers will
only go from bad to worse, and sdventurers
viii not prosper. This is the poorest country
IN the world for wit-hving Representatives.
1t requires health, labor, courage aud persis-
.ence to succeed here as elsewhere, and emi-
grants must expect this. Capitalists cannot
make mistake by investing their money
The whole territory is now infused with
aew life, and possessed of an activity n eN-
cess Of any ything of the like heretofore n.
