As the next Senate will consist of eighty
eighty members, forty-ive will constitute a
majority. Jones and Stewart acting with
the straight Republicans would enable the
Republicans to organize, but the gold men
of the party are apprehensive that Jones and
Stewart would insist upon some legislation
favorable to silver as a condition of their
support The Democrats can only organize

Delamar Mail Change.

Beginning with the 10th of this month the
Helene post office will be discontinued and
mail for DeLamar will be obtained, until
further instructions, from the Pioche office.
The orders are to carry the Hike mail from
Phoebe to Hike, without going via Helene
as at present.
The mail for DeLamar is to be carried
from Phoebe as often as the Postmaster at
DeLamar may think the necessities of the
people require. This will result in an in.
crease of service, to three times week Ger.
tainly, and possibly to daily mail, con.
Meeting closely with the mail from Milford
as it reaches here. This is the proper thing
to do and it should be made . permanent
arrangement when final orders in the matter
come from the Postal Department. This
will settle the question of side tracking
Phoebe and carrying the mail direct from
Milford to DeLamar. Such change could
at best save but an hours time, while it
would at the same time work great in
to the public of Phoebe.
