The contest overthe question whether
a rural mail route should run from
Flushing into this county taking up the
offices at Judd's Corners and Hazelton,
shutting Lennon off from securing a
route and cutting into the business of
the Office at New Lothrop, has been
settled by the Post Office Department
in favor of the people of Shiawassee
county who want the route TO run out
from the Lennon Office. Congressman
Fordney and Congressman s. w. Smith
of the sixth district, both put up a
lively fight but as the showing was so
strongly in favor of the Lennon office
the officials having the matter in
charge were convinced that the proper
thing to do was to revoke the order to
start the route from Flushing on
January Island by the way similar
order was issued year ago and held in
allegiance on account of protests from
this county-apd TO issue a special
order for the inspection of the proposed
routes from Lennon. 1t is expected
that Judge Daboll will go over the
ground within few days.
