directly on the route, to secure the
service. must of necessity go to the
route.
Mail will not be delivered or col
lected by carriers except to and from
approved boxes properly placed on posts
by the road side and Immediately Access
sible to the carriers without dismount-
ing. The postmaster general thru a
commission, after an examination OF
nearly 100 styles of boxes, approved and
selected fourteen different kinds. and 1t
is required that those desiring 1.-THE SER
vice, on routes hereafter to be be estab-
lished, must put UP boxes to be selected
from the list. Carriers are not required
to serve those whose boxes are so erect
ed that they must drive on bank. in
ditch shovel away snow, or dismount to
exchange the mall Under no circum-
stances can a carrier present an accept
able excuse for extending the service to
tnose who have wooden or other unap-
proved boxes or to those with improp-
erly or inconveniently erected boxes.
Carriers are instructed to insist that
boxes should be erected on solid. smooth
posts, six inches in diameter, placed two
and one-half feet In the ground. The
post should lean at least twelve inches
toward the road. and the top should be
beveled SO that the box when fastened
will hang perpendicular and the bottom
be just four feet from the ground. Boxes
SO erected will enable the carrier to
drive the front wheel Of his vehicle I'M
der the box without catching the Writ
fletree on the posts, thus exchanging the
mail with ease and rapidity.
In addition to the above, if the posts
are painted white and the name OF the
postofiice and number of the route stem
ciled thereon. 1t will add materially to
the appearance and be valuable land
mark.
The ultimate success OF rural free de-
livery depends upon good roads. It is
therefore made the special duty Of the
rural carrier to repot to the postmaster
from whose Office he starts dangerous or
impossible condition of roads and
bridges and the failure of proper au-
thorities to keep the same in repair.
The prospective trials Of one rural
carrier on an Ohio route are, foreshad-
owed in the following press dispatch,
dated Millersburg. Ohio: Rural deliv-
cry route No. H. out OF this place, which
will be opened Feb. /, shows 400 persons
who will get mail, and OF this number
1T are named Miller. The route takes
in the Amish settlement and that sect
has many Millers. Many have exactly
the same name, and this will trouble the
carrier" F. A. MOSCRIP.

THE MAGhATEs suBPoENAED.
Hill and Hartman Ordered Before the
Interstate Commission.

Chicago, Jan. 23-The interstate COM
merce commission will begin an investi-
cation as to the effect on freight rates
of recent railway consultations at 10
o'clock tomorrow morning in the United
States circuit court rooms In the Mo-
| radnock block. The star witnesses will
be e. H. Hartman and James ]. Hill,
the men chiefly responsible for the mer-
ger Of the Union Pacific. Southern Paci-
fic. Oregon Short Line, and Oregon Rail-
the Great Northern, Northern Pacific
and Burlington railroads. The presi-
dents of those roads and their traffic di-
rectors, j. c. Stubs and Darius Miller,
also have been summoned to testify be-
fore the commission.
1t was rumored in local railway cir
cles yesterday that the commission had
decided to postpone the hearing in Chi
cago because the United States supreme
court is to take up the case of the
Northern Securities Company Saturay.
A fact which gave some credence to the
Iumor was the departure for New York
Wednesday night of Paul Morton, sec
ond vice president of the Santa Fee sys-
tenn. He and Vice President Johnson
of the Rock Island road had been noti-
fled to appear before the commission on
Jan. "a and testify concerning the trans
portation and storage OF grain from
Missouri river points to the Atlantic
seaboard. Some railway officials were
of the opinion that Mr.. Morton would
not have gone east unless the commits
sion had notified him that the hearing
would be postponed.
Certain railway men evinced such an
interest in Saturdays hearing that they
sent messengers to the hotels to inquire
whether reservations of rooms had been
made for the interstate commerce COM
mission. James j. Hill or e. n. Harri-
man. The messengers returned with
the report that none Of the hotels had
been advised of the coming of the COM
mission or the railway magnates. Pres
idents Of the western roads terminati ting
here said that they had received no
word regarding the coming Of Hill, Har-
riman or the commission
1t Is hardly secret that many rail-
way officials would be glad to have the
proposed hearing by the commission
postponed for a long time. They are
worried because they are in doubt as to
how much the commission knows and
proposes to learn of the methods Of the
railways controlled by Hartman and
Hill,

Davenport.
The number of applicants for aid
from the county is steadily increasing.
remarked Overseer of the Poor knost-
nan to Times reporter. "Of course this
is to be expected. as the city increases
in population, but when one makes an
investigation into the matter of who
these applicants are he has an opportu-
nifty to study some of the phases of hui
nan existence. The other day a woman
called at my Office who had come from
a distant town She had one or two chill
dren and had been finding 1t difficult to
make a living, but she managed to get
along with the assistance of some of her
charitable neighbors. The overseer
asked her why she came to Davenport
and she replied that her friends urged
her to, for 1t was city of wealthy peo-
PIE. a goodly portion of whom took par
ticular pleasure in helping all the needy
The woman was here but a short time
Before she called at my Office" said Mr..
Knostman. THE good name of Daven-
pert has been used to It's detriment in
this regard continued the overseer
We have already a class of people in
this city. and it is fortunate that it is as
small as it is, who believe in living
without work.
Carroll.
The board OF supervisors before adj
journment last week entered into con-
tract with O. p. Mcdonald for the col
lection of the delinquent mulct tax. It
is estimated that there is due the county
from this source about s12. 900. but only
Fart of 1t is collectable. For number
OF years the assessors In some OF the
townships where saloons were run did
not do their duty in the matter of as
sessing the saloons and thousands OF
dollars belonging to taxpayers failed to
reach the treasury in consequence. But
the board of supervisors took action and
saw to it that the welfare OF taxpayers
should not suffer further. In one in
stance neglect of duty cost an assessor
not only his Office but the respect and
support of the people of the county.
Each year the treasurer has done his
duty in offering for sale property on
which mulct tax had not been paid, but
on such occasions most OF the property
was not sold because nobody would bid.
The result was that no tax could be col
lected. But 1t Is thought that many
thousands can be collected by Mr.. Nc
Donald. His contract goes back for only
two years and delinquents beyond tina.
period will get off without paying. But
there will be no effort spared to collect
every dollar included in the time stipu-
lated in the contract, says the Herald.

POINTERS FOR TAXATION.
IAlgona Upper Des Moines.i


OF the thirty eight assessors in the
county thirty-six were present last
Wednesday to hear Auditor Weaver
talk about assessing and to get pointers
on how to do the work. One had small
pox, which was accepted as a sufii-
cient reason by the others for his alb
sence. The other did not send in an ex-
cuse.
Several curious things We're brought
out at this meeting. One was that
few people pay tax on household surni-
ture. Only two persons in Algona pay
such tax. There is exemption Of $500
but dozens of people all over the county
have furniture valued at more than
that.
Electric light chandeliers belong to
the furniture and not to the house. A
furnace is part of the house, but stoves
are furniture.
Grain is not assessaoie during the
year in which it is raised. But if it is
held past Jan. It is assessable, also
grain that is bought is assessable.
A great many assessors are not par
ticular about assessing bugg!es and
carriages.
New buildings are assessable. If they
are on land owned by the builder they
are added to the real estate. II they on
leased ground they are assessed as per-
sonal property.
