COMPLAINT or THE POSTAL SERVICE.
peculiar Order Of the Railway Mail Sys.
TEN Delays Augusta Mail Hall an Hour Every
Oay.

a few days since the Journal had oc-
caslon to announce the change brought
ABOUT by the removal of a local postal
clerk,and since then there is very much
complaint among the business men
ana residents of Augusta, over the de-
lay OF the mail, causing the afternoon
delivery to be from fifteen minutes to
half an hour later than it has been re-
Gently. 1t appears that for the past
three months a clerk of the Augusta
poStoflice has been sent down to meet
the afternoon train, and the mail has
been sorted and brought Immediately
to the office for delivery, 50 that when
1t was received at this office it was all
ready for delivery through the city at
once.
1t also appears that there have been
detailed clerks who are supposed to do
this sorting for the Railway Mail ser
vice for the larger cities, such as Port
land, Augusta and Bangor We are in
formed that it is almost impossible for
them to sort this mail matter as close
ly as it is done by the local clerks:
and that, so long as it is done by them,
there will be about the same delay as
now, as a part of it has to be sorted
and the backstamp has to be put on
after reaching the office instead of be
ms done on the train. as when the local
clerk is put on.
There is nothing upon which the
public generally is SO sensitive as de-
lay in the mail. and there seems to be
no reason in this case, Why there
should have been any change, as ii
was not desired by this office. and the
previous arrangement was working
perfectly satisfactory.
y call at the postoflce elected the
fact that nothing can be done about
it, by local authorities as the orders
have come directly from the railway
mail service, and the clerk had to be
Withdrawn as he was travelling in the
railway mail car by the courtesy of
that division, which had the right to
have him ordered out at any time 50
far as this office is concerned it would |
prefer to have the arrangement left |
as it was, and to have the local clerk |
do the work. 1t would seem that this
is against the wishes of the railway
mail service, which division feels that
it should have the entire charge of
such matters, and have them done hy
the clerks in their own division. 1t is |
to be hoped that some method can be
reached whereby this mail can be de
livered as promptly as it has been for
the past three months,as it would seem
that our citizens have a right to re-
ceve the best possible service through
TIE postofiicc, even though it may
somewhat conflict with the ideas Of
any one division of the department.
