Postomce Notes.

An effort has been recently made to have
q night station at Ives, Okanogan county
for the mail coming from Conconuliy and
Wenatchce and doing away with the run
from Brewster by starting II at Ives and
running to Winthrop. II this should be
done the distance would be Increased from
ten to twelve miles, and Brewster, now
the night station for all the mails that
come In and the distributing point for
all OF the northern part of 0kanogan couu-
ty, would have all OF its mail combinations
broken. Instead Of being deprived Of this
connection. Brewster desires a daily mail
from Wenatchee to Brewster on the line
Of the Great Northern railroad. a distance
OF sixty-six miles. and daily mail from
Brewster to Loomis, distance of sixty
seven miles. BY the present schedule it
takes four days to- get the mail from
Wenatchee to Loomis.
Representative Jones has filed with the
