This is q aanple of the way they run.

IN growth OF population and business.
1t also coca without saying that the
decrease in the posta! receipts OF mos; #
tho cities named has been more marked
since The last of June than before, re
the bank panic and general paralysis OF
bulness occurred principally after that
date. Los Angeles, however, is nota-
bic exception, ~ the postal receipts kept
on increasing 10 the end OF the year.
Inspect r Flint eatimate1 that the re-
ceipts for the wear 1895 Il the Los An.
geles postc flee will reach $3.50 600.
In view OF this remarkable growth in
business it ia but just that congre &c
should make an appropriation for the
Office from year to year, commensurate
with the receipts. The postal service Of
the city is greatly bampered on account
OF the insutlicency Of the office help.
The clerks are worked over time, yet
they can not handle the mail with the
prom ptness dem Anded by the public.
Congress has az in and again been pc
titioned for more help, but without
avail.
1t ia hoped the report OF Inspector
Flint will open the eyea of the depart
ment to the exigencies OF the case and
result in speedy relief for the long sui-
fering and rapidly growing population
OF Los Angeles.
