Better Mail Service.

A few weeks ago the mail service between
this point and Great Falls was such as to
arouse the Indignation OF our citizens. We
not only called attention to the state of
affairs through the columns Of the ARGUS
but wrote a number of personal letters ex-
planning the situation more fully. Post
master Gray, OF this place, also exerted
himself to correct the evil. 1t will also
be seen by the letter copied below that
Senator Power has interested himself in
the matter, and that all cause for COM
plant is now removed:
w~AsHINGToN, ID. c., Dec. 81, 1892.
Sill Referring TO your letter of December
"a, 1892, relative to star service in Fer
gus ~codnty. Montana, and vicinity, and
inclosing a clippingir from the Helena Herald
on the same subject, | have the honor to
inform you that up to the time that rail-
way mail service was established bet ween
Great Falls and Arlington, Mont, the star
service between Billings and Great Falls
was six times a week over the whole length
of the route, but as the railway service be-
tween Great Falls and Arlington was to
run three times a week the star service be-
tween said points was reduced to three
times a week, and a schedule arranged to
run on alternate days with the railroad.
Since the receipt of your letter information
has reached this office that the railroad
is only performing twice a week service,
and that they have refused to carry any
but letter mail on the trains, leaving the
paper mail for the stage to carry This is
evidently the reason for the Irregularities
complained of by you correspondents, and
by the citizens OF Fergus county generally.
A telegram sent to the railroad officials
elected the information that they could
not say when the tri-weekly service would
be resumed, and as the department has no
authority TO compel the railway company
to run trains more frequently than they
desire, an order has this day been issued
restoring six times a week service on the
star route between Great Falls and Arm
~ington, and it is hoped this action will
remedy the evil. In this connection it may
be proper to state that deductions are
made from the pay of the railroad com
pany for any service they may fail to per-
form. The order referred to above takes
effect on from January 2, 1892.
Very respectfully,
rsIgnedI j. LowRIE BELL,
Second ASS Postmaster-General
