Rural Free Mail Delivery Likely to Re-
- ceive More Attention in Minnesota,

Nuia1 free Mali Del1Very Likely to Re-
ceive More Attention in Minnesota.
Advices from Washington say: The
rural free delivery branch of the post
office department is divided into four
divisions. Minnesota, until to-day, was
in the middle, division, it>is now in the
Western. This move is quite impor-
tant to Minnesota, as far as securing
more rural free delivery routes is con-
cerned. =
The middle division has more routes
than any other. 1t had come to a
point where the states in that division
could not secure more routes. Now
that Minnesota is in the Western, one
that is just getting acquainted with
the rural mail subject, there will not
be much trouble getting new routes
established. Thirty-nine Minnesota
applications behind at Indianapolis
have been transferred to Denver, from
which place the Minnesota business
will be handled. Inspectors Gutterson
and Olson, OF Minnesota, have been in
structed to hurry up on their cases and
report them Immediately that the
routes may be established.
minnesota has been little slow
about asking for routes,'' said Superin-
tendent Clark. of the rural free delivery
department to-day. "There are many
places in Minnesota where routes
should be established, and we can give
them plenty of attention now.''
If the farmers wish to have their
mail brought to their doors they can
have it by sending a petition therefor
to the first assistant postmaster gen
eral at Washington, d. c. The ,,ss..:: :
tion should be signed by those vino
wish the free delivery, but only by the
head Of the family, they may, however,
state the number of persons in the fam
lily. It should further be stated in the
petition whether the country, for
which the free delivery is desired, is
thickly settled or not, what the occu-
patton of the inhabitants is, how the
roads are and how far each petitioner
has had to go to get his mail. If pos
sible "a plat should be made of the de-
sired route and attached to the petit
tion. After the petition is signed, it
must be sent to the representative or
to the senator of the respective district
to have it endorsed and sent to the
postoffice department.. Good roads are
one OF the requirements for establish
ing free delivery. Furthermore no
route is established that is not from 20
to 25 miles long and through which at
least 100 families are served. The
route should be so laid out that the
carrier does not travel over any piece
OF the route twice in one day. Dwell
ers on farms and in villages have
justly complained that they had to
travel greater or less distances to get
| their mail while dwellers in cities had
it brought to their doors. They now
have the opportunity to relieve them
selves of the injustice if they will act.
The neglect to do it will be taken as
indicating no desire for the privilege.

the murder of Antonio Soto last Sunday
afternoon, came up in Justice Wilson g
court Yesterday. Judge Satterwhite
conducted the examination Of witnesses

The hearing merely brought out the de-
tails Of the case as told in The Citizen Of
Monday. The boy himself made no
statement He has already told
several stories OF the shooting all of
which are so conflicting that it was
thought useless to put him on the stand
in his own defense.
The gun which Mccormick used was
produced in conrt and is colts twenty
two calibre repeating rifle which was
rented to the boy by the firm OF Manzo
4 0choa for twenty-five cents. Wen
seslao Escobosa, the boy who was with
Mccormick and Soto at the time Soto
was shot testified to the details OF the
affair and showed the manner in which
Mccormick handled the gun. He said
when Soto felt the wound in his fore.

see what YOU have done. Mccormick
