 I, seems as though the government places too much stress upon the import snee of getting letters from New York to the west in a short space of tune. The recent placing of fas, mail trains upon the roads. 10 run between New York ard Chicago m i~enty-six hours, IS entirely unnecessary. aS a special effort. as several roads have been running trains tor year or more between the two cites in twenty seven hours which could bting the mail as tas, IS any reasonable man would care 10 have II. II man in Chicago or Mil waukee IS going sc get dunning letter from a New York man. delay of few hours more or less IS not going to make the recipient of the iunning letter lose sleep. He could brace up and wal, till ;he neN, train. II wors; came 10 worst As plne ,en,hs oi the letters ,ka, come from ,ae eas, ,o the wes, contain blils. state ments of account. and requests ,e remit.
