DIsINTEREsTED OBSERVERS.
Position of This GOFernment as t.
Venezuelan Difficulty.

The progress of the complications be-
tween Venezuela and Colombia continues
to attract the attention of the departmental
authorities, who occupy the position Of dis
interested observers of an affair in which
the United States has no direct concern,
except in properly Safeguarding any Amer
ican interests. The press reports that two
Venezuela warships have transported 500
men under Gen. Davila, for the purpose
Of invading Colombia, rather strengthens
the prevailing view that President Castro
is assuming an aggressive policy toward
Colombia which may result In an actual
conflict between the republics. But in this
event there is felt to be no occasion for
action on the part of this government, ex-
cept in pursuing the usual course of look.
ing after the property interests of our citi-
zens in that quarter. Thus far, however
our official representatives in Colombia and
Venezuela have sent no advices concern.
ing the reported movements, and there is
no occasion for official action, as the situ-
alton now stands. This is quite apart from
the trouble on the isthmus, which is on
the western side of Colombia whereas the
latest reports of conflict between Colombia
Venezuela refer to the frontier on the east
side of Colombia, some 800 miles from the
iSthmuS.

RURAL FREE DELIVERY,
Another Evidence of the Value of ,
System.

announcer EVlueECe OF the Value of the
SysteR.
Mr. Machen, superintendent -Of the rural
free delivery service, has ordered that post
masters be supplied with" stamped envel-
opes with a return notice stamped on
them so that the mail route to which they
are to be returned in case of snon-delivery
can be indicated. This action is in ac-
cordance with the general policy of the
department to give the rural service every
service enjoyed by city patrons. The num-
Der of rural free delivery carriers today is
5,OG2, and by the end OF the current fiscal
year the total, it is expected, will be s0O0
Today there were added to the service
thirty new routes. which involved the dis
continuance of almost as many post offices
or star routes. 1t is estimated that abou.
half the expense incurred in establishing
new rural free delivery routes Is met by
the saving from disseminating post offices
or star routes. In many cases the change
is in effect merely to have the postmaster,
instead of remaining at his Office and dis
tributing mail there, deliver it to patrons
of the office at their homes.
