compel Mr. Saulsbery TO come from
his palatial residence at Salt Lake
and look after the interests of the
public, whom he is we'll paid to
serve, or, at least, to send some live
man who is not too lazy or afraid of
a little snow, 10 try and get the
mails through once in awhile. Such
lhings did not occur when Mr.. Wat
son had charge Of affairs on that
road.
Aud while | am kicking | might
MS well inquire into another matter
wherein the public is interested and
also great inconvenience--that is,
why the Postotlice at Mountain
Home is not money order office?
Why this should lie at the just now
most important postoilice in the
county is mystery. Persons de-
string to send sums of money to the
temporary county seat for any pur-
pose must find some one going there
or go themselves at great expense.
The public can not understand this
state of affairs. Rumor has il that
the present Postmaster there can
not give bonds to make il money
order Office. | think the best PEG.
pie at Mountain Home should in
vesiigate this matter and see where
the blame lies, and remedy it, for
the interest of the public and their
own good name.

here at present-snow about five
inches deep at this writing.
The holidays passed off very
pleasantly with dances and parties
of various kinds, and general good
feeling prevailing. 4 number Of
friends from abroad were visiting
here, among them Mrs. j. p. Gile
and daughter from Boise, sister of
Mrs. Mullany; young Mr.. Post and
sister from Boise valley, were the
guests of Miss McGinness, but the
most noticeable arrival was a l0.lb.
girl to the wife of Conductor J. A.
Baker. Mother and child doing
splendid-but the case of conductor
Baker is doubtful. However, the
old ladies say that with careful
nursing he will pull through all
right, hut that another case Of the
same kind, at present, would prove
fatal.
There il TO be grand ball here
on the evening of the 22d instant.
under the auspices of the Catholic
church, to pay off some indebted
ness. A grand time is anticipated.
The public are respectfully invited.
and hope there will be general
response, as it is for worthy OBJ

indefinite time. She is quite an ac-

One of the pleasanlest surprise
parties Of the season came ntf Mt |
the handsome residence of Mes

evenings ago. About IL couples
went there without note of warn

but they gracefully submitted to
their fate and in the best Of humor
invited the crowd To take full pos
