church rendered q reception to the
Grangeville orchestra and those

portion Of which it was their duty
to find. The slip properly
matched contained a very neat
literary quotation foretelling

Good tor OranReville.

The salary Of Judge CARRIER,
postmaster at Grangeville, has
been increased to $500 per year,
the raise to take effect July 1.
Last year the salary was increased
to 314O0, and the new raise is
based upon the increase OF bush
ness transacted in the office. This
is another pertinent straw to show
that growing Grangeville is grow
ing steadily in the right direction.
There 10 no surer index to the
growth and prosperity Of any
town than the volume Of business
transacted in its post Office, and it
should be matter Of pride and
rejoicing for all our townemen to
know that in this particular our
town il making more progress in
proportion to population than any
other town in the state. Hurrah
for growing Grangeville, the best
town in all Of central Idaho.
