PosT OFFICE, AsHEvIILE, n c.,
Aug. 26, 1889.
lAessrs. Editors Both the CITIZEN and
AdUonce have recently referred, editor
tally, to what they call carelessness in
the delivery of letters at the Asheyille
post office. This is an unjust criticism.
especially as all know it is the intention
of each post official in this Office to pro-
perly perform his duty. It is conceded
on all sides that the Asheville post office
is the most difficult in the State to man
age, owing to the great number of stran-
gers that come here In summer we
have Southern visitors and in winter
Northern. 1t is possible that letters oc.
casionally are not delivered upon first
application, owing to the great rush lust
after the distribution of the morning
mail, and yet but few such complaints
reach US direct If an evil of the kind
does exist, we offer suggestion, which
If properly adhered to by all concerned,
will be sure remedy: That the com
plant make the complaint to the 2. NJ.
On one of his assistants, and, if posi- BILE,
in person. A book, called 'book of COM
plants" is kept, and in order that the
may be thorough, a note
will be taken and called to the attention
OF each clerk Again, it is claimed letters
true; it occurs more or less at all Offices
OF any size and frequently at small offfc-
es.. Here the mails are heavy and we
work In great haste IN order that the
office may be closed but a short time.
People waiting on the outside think it a
long time any. way, let US do the best we,
can; but they have but little idea as to
what is to be done, As already said, we
work hurfiedly, and in the great haste,
often miss the right box. Any one who,
has ever had any experience in a post
office will say it is an easy matter to hit
the wrong box, Frequently two letters,
or letter and card, or two cards will
stick together and thus go into the wrong
their mark and put letters IN the wrong
