THE GOVERNMENT HAD ITS WAY.
rhe Postmaster at Delight, WASH,
Gracefully Yields a Point.
washington Evening Starr

(WdSnlNStOn fINenlnS StdTb
The postmaster at Delight, Wash.
has consented that the Office be made
one at which money orders may be is
sued. The post Office department de-
tefnined some time ago that Delight
should be made money order Office.
The postmaster objected and wrote to
the postmaster general in opposition To
the plan. Again he was informed OF
the determination of the department.
Postmaster General Smith the other
day received the following letter:
Postmaster General:
"Sir: Yours of the 18th inst. received
and contents noted. We think from
the tone of your kind letter that you
mistook our meaning perhaps or we
should have been more explicit.
I'VE never intended to dictate to you
how our post office should be run, and
if YOU come to such a conclusion you
mistoOk our meaning.
1T is your duty to give to the pubic
in. our reighbOrhood the very best mail
service possible. and if you think 1t
would answer that end by making it Il
money order Office we have no more to
say. The next thing would be for us
to let somebody else have it if it did not
suit US. Until the last two or three
years the only pay there was in our
post office was the convenience there
was in il for our community. Our first
unarter cancellations did not quite
amount to 81 and we never got red of
that. as there was no instruction come
with our commission chad not got the
postal lawsD we sent the whole business
to the United States expecting when II
was audited We would get our pay, but
we never did.
.This was during Clevelands first
term. Then during his second term in
making our quarterly report we over
looked SO in stamps that we got from
the department. Have done that very
thing since and was allowed to make
the correction that we took no credit
for which was held against us and per-
sisted in the extent of pressing our
sureties Tor payment (of course we
would not let them suffer-. we bor-
rOwet the money and paid. but never
knew why.
eat the time referred to we were
only experimenting with our country;
did not know then whether 1t would
make an agricultural one or not. but
all doubts in that direction have hap
piN been dispelled. which Is evidenced
bv the trainloads Of emigrants that
are almost daily coming to our States
and adjacent ones.
well. we are like the young preach
err. got clear away from the text. After
we had sent one letter to you and come
| to think what we had written. that De-
light belonged to me and that we had
a right to say whether it should be
money order Office or not. but your an
swer had none Of the Big 4 and little
u about it. hut was Hinged with kind
ness toward an old ignorant man.
| Now it remains for you 10 cay II De-
light is to he a money order office. we
i have no more to say. you are the boss.

our head on the block. Yours most re-
epectfully.
