A Movement Go Petition for q Daily
Mail Over the n. a. r.

A movement is being agitated to petition
the Postofice Department for a six-day
mail service over the Eureka & Palisade
railroad. At the present time the railroad
company, which is paid by weight, receives
about 81, 800 per year for a three-day SER
vice each way weekly between Palisade
and Eureka. The blackboard contract for
the same service is let for 80, $40 per annum.
II the Government will discontinue the
blackboard contract and pay the latter
amount (S2, 949) for the extra service we
believe the railroad company would insti-
tute q daily train Except Sundays) from
Eureka to Palisade and return. This run
could easily be made in one day, say, leave
Eureka at z A. NJ. and return at 5 P. NJ.
The train would then leave Palisade after
IL NJ. and we would be assured of getting
both Eastern and Western mails, even
when the Central Pacific trains were con-
siderably late. In this manner we would
be assured Of a regular six-day mail service
each way, a matter of i~ncalculable benefit
and convenience not only to the people OF
Eureka county but to the citizens Of .
large part of the State to the south of here.
The people of Ely have been complaining
of the irregularity Of the blackboard mail
until they are tired. We are informed
that they are now endeavoring to have
their mail route changed to run via Wells
and Cherry Creek to Ely. In case that
change goes into effect, the blackboard
route to Eureka will probably be discon-
tinued and we will eventually be submitted
to a three-day service by train.
The people here are becoming disguised
with the present blackboard service, that
mail for ZONE time having arrived too late
at night for distribution. There are now
no postofices on the blackboard route, these
formerly at Mineral Hill and White having
been discontinued, SO the abandonment Of
the route would not necessitate the discon-
tinuance of any Office,
Owing to heavy ore shipments the 4, 4
p. train is compelled to double as far as
the Summit every other day-that is after
arriving in Eureka to take a number Of
cars of ore over the heaviest grade, where
it is left to be coupled on the next morn
ing. This being the case, and there being
good indications that the ore output of
Eureka and surrounding districts will in
crease, we believe that a daily train service
can and will be established if the railway
company is given the contract at the price
now paid the other contractor.

tions.

IMPROVED MAIL SERVICE.

The recent visit Of Postoffice Inspector
Cowan promises to bring about needed
improvements in our mail service. Over a
month ago a mail catching device vas pnt
up at Palisade. This is an arrangement to
permi. the letter mail that leaves Eureka
by blackboard to be picked up by the west
bound flyer, which passes Palisade at night
and does not stop there. This device had
not been used until Inspector Cowan came,
and our blackboard letters were held over
and left Palisade no sooner than the train
mail which left Eureka "a hours later.
Superintendent Thrall's attention has
evidently been called to the matter and the
device was put in use last Monday.
Postmaster Broy tells us that the buck
board contractor has informed him that he
can now keep this Office open, as the buck
board will be in on schedule time in future
g It's a contamination devoutly to be
wished" Beginning this friday night
we may expect our blackboard mail on time.

Christmas In Eureka.

Christmas was passed very pleasantly
in Eureka. The weather was as delightful
rs any one could wish for. The Sunday
school Christmas trees, given at the Meth
odist Church at Ruby Hill and the Catho-
lie, Presbyterian and Episcopal Churches
in Eureka, were all attended by large
crowds. This is the season at which the
small boy decides that it is well to be a
Sunday school scholar, and verify he is
right, for the presents distributed were
beautiful and judiciously selected. There
were a number of private Christmas trees
and good dinners in profusion.
