Postal Cards.

WASHINGTON, March 1O.-Investlga-
ton is being made by the postofice de-
partment into the charges that the
paper used in the manufacture of postal
cards is of poor quality and blurs when
written upon. The contractor, Mr..

having samples of the paper tested. He
claims that the paper is up to the stand
ard, but admits that some cards may
blur when written upon, but this
was not necessarily due to a poor
quality of paper. He claimed to be
furnishing good quality. Gen. Hazen,
third assistant postmaster general, SAID
to-day that the department had been
urging the contractor for some time to
improve the quality of the cards. He
said that reasonable allowance would
be made, but the cards must come up to
the contract standard. The contract
costs the government s25G,000 year.

ably be several dismissals. This is the

offenses by scholars here, and there Is
going to be fight to stop the custom
which, if not approved. by some prin.
cipals, is winked at by them.

dOns its shipyard in Duluth and comes
to this city for more spacious quarters,
may, perhaps, have been matter of as
tonishment to people of the Northwest
who have not visited the head of Lake
Superior in the last two years; but to
those who have kept frequent "tab" on
the two cities up here, and to the people
of this city in particular, there was no
matter of surprise in the victory
achieved by West Superior in the battle
of bids for this big steel shipbuilding
plant. For since 1888 this place has

In the summer of 1888 the Sawyer ele-
vator system, with a capacity for stor-

and in 1888 that system and the Great
Northern shipped over 100000 bushels
of wheat, or within a few thousand
bushels of
HALF THE TOTAL
shipments at the head of the lakes. In
1889 the Greet Northern added another
elevator to its system. with capacity
of 100000 bushels, making a total ele
vator capacity in West Superior Of $500
600 bushels. In 1888 the grain business
transacted in the two cities of Superior
aud Duluth was as follows:
