Irregular Mail Service.

Numerous complaints have reached this
Office at different times concerning the ir-
regularity of the receipt of mail matter of
all kinds at Highwood and elsewhere in
that direction of theeountry. Some Of our
Highwood subscribers inform US that some
weeks they get the TRIBUNE and their
neighbors do not. At othertimes they will
get no paper sometimes for four or five
weeks at stretch and that at the end of
that time they will get corresponding
number of papers in one batch. Now,
there must be something wrong somewhere
when the intended object of "a mail service
falls so far short of consummation. We
hear that bids have been put in for the
purpose of securing tri-weekly mail ser
vice at Highwood and ifthis plan succeeds
Highwood ought to get its mail with reg
ularity.

The Rocky Mountain Telegraph Co

W. NJ. Cairnes, superintendent Of the
Rocky Mt. Tel. Go. and S. NJ. Mckee, Of
Butte. reached Great Falls last Saturday
evening, At an informal meeting of citi-
zens they stated that they would run a loop
from the Leavings to Great Falls if our
citizens would furnish and place the
poles. It would take about $50 poles and
the estimated subsidy would be $500. It
is to be hoped that the money can be rails
ed as we are greatly in need of telegraphic
services. The company would agree to
run the wires by January 1st, and open an
office, presided over by a competent
operator The company are putting the
old government line into good repair and
propose to give Montana the best of service.
Arrangements have been made by them
for eastern and western connection with
the Mackey system.

EDITOR HERALD:-It Appeals by let
ter received by Major Geo. h. Bone
brake that the State Engineer will not
come down to look at the Los Angeles
river unless paid for so doing. His sal
airy as an officer Of the State will not af-
ford it.. II the trip were to Niagara il
might be different aud easily Afforded,
but our river is little thing and that
official has seen it and measured 1t be-
fore this.
1t is only few years ago that the ex-
pensive farce Of sending abroad for Wis
iting engineers was INDUCED in by the
people of this city and the bill was very
heavy. They toiled not neither did
they spin, and yet they charged $500
for looking at and approving work
that had to be done over again
in short time. Will the
people submit TO such an outrage
again? There are quite as good engineers
in Los Angeles as in Sacramento. but
the people here would raise a hue-and-
cry il resident engineer should charge
half wages for making complete survey
of the river channel to ascertain the
proper foundation for and height OF a
good levee.
A channel 800 feet wide, free from
distinctions, and s feet in depth, will
afford capacity for all the water in the
Los Angeles river 10 pass through the
city without OVERLOOKING the banks.
The idea that has been developed in
public places and in morning contem-
porsry that rainfall of four inches in
twenty-four hours would cause the river
to overflow is simply ridiculous. Seven
inches fell in a day in 1875 and there
time, and the earth was very wet
before the seven-inch rain began to
fall. When rain falls on the porous
soil Of Los Angeles county, not one-tif.
teentb part of it runs off into streams
on the day OF the rainfall. The writer
saw the Santa Ana, the San Gabriel and
the Arroyo Seco in the great storm pre-
ceding the food. All OF these streams
rose steadily and naturally and washed
away no railroad bridges except in the
bottoms where they were choked by will.
low brush. The Los Angeles river rose
steadily till the water-spout in the Tu-
junga came in a sudden rush, broke the
track Of the s. P. R. R., and brought
fences, barns, timbers, trees, alfalfa
roots and grapevines into the city. This
sudden wave broke the upper railroad
bridge and later on the others gave way
because the spans were not sufficiently
lengthy to let the debris go through.
The river was at its highest but few
and then subsidized very sudden
ly. More water passed through the
river channel in day in 1874, 1875 and
1878 than passed in day of the recent
freshet. The channel then was in
better condition and there were fewer
bridges to obstruct the flow and no
water spout to come down like the wolf
on the fold.
If the railways are permitted to build
levees, and the bridges are made with
spans of 80 or 100 feet, there will be no
trouble with the river and no need of
the services of the State Engineer. The
money raised for the importation of an
engineer might better be employed in
making better bridges and in aiding the
flood sufferers. Yours, Nj.
