Circular No. 1851 of the Santa Fe pas

national convention of letter carriers,
which viii be held in Denver from Sep

number of letter carriers go to Denver

The chairman of the transportation
committee. A J. Kitchener of St. Louis,
announces that the Santa F'e has been
selected as the official route, Chicago TO
Denver, for the excursion. Among the
reasons given by him for the choice are
the following:
we are indebted to the Atehison,
Topeka and Santa F'e for its action in
securing these low rates.
i would ask the cordial support and
assistance of delegates and their friends
in uniformly making arrangements to
patrOnize the Santa Fe, not only as a
moral obligation but in order that We
may avail ourselves of special train
service which the Santa Fe will furnish.
Meals en- route viii be served at the
famous Harvey eating houses. From
personal experience can testify that tie
Santa F'e is justified in it's boast that
they are unexcelled on the continent. =
