ties here, Congressman James petit
tion will probably not amount to any.
thing as what he wants is practi cally
impossible unless the government es-
tsblisbes a steamboat line for the sole
purpose Of carrying mail TO the above
places twice day.
At present there is rominally dai.
ly mail service between Paducah and
these points on the Evansville packet,
but several months IN the year ON ac-
count of low water, the service is very
uncertain. In fact sometimes during
very low water there is no packet aud
consequently no mail, for two or three
days at time.
As there is only one boat a day at
the best. it would be impossible to
have double daily mail service between
the points named unless the govern.
ment should place in steamboat Of
its own. There was formerly little
boat in the Paducah and Golcouda
trade, leaving in the afternoon, but
this was taken out several weeks ago.
In fact, instead of having q double
daily service between Paducah and
Golconda and other river cities as Con
gresham James wants, it is fully ex-
pected that the government will abol.
ish entirely the river mail service be-
tween Psduoah and Evansville efYec.
tive next July when the new contracts
are to be made.
AT present it costs IS, 900 a year to
carry the mail between Paduoah and
Evansville on the boats, and the oon-
tract before cost $40, 900 year. The
government now has most Of tho small
river towns well served by star route,
railway and rural free delivery ser
vice, and IL is believed that it will this
year abolish the river mails service.

Since the railroads was built into
Golconda there is ono mail day from
Paducah and way stations to Golconda
by way of Grantsburg. Ill. IL seems
that the best way to reach Smithland
and other towns ON this side of the
river not touched by railroads, IL over
the star routes.
The local post Office is now trying
to secure better service over the N,

Channel Filling Up.

Mr.. John Callahan, general manager
of the Norfolk and Washington Steam
boat Company, called upon Commits
sioner West in Washington Monday to
inform him that the channel along the
wharves between the Long Bridge and
the old Arsenal Point is rapidly shoal-
ing, and that often at low water the
steamers of the Norfolk and Washington
line touch the bottom Of the river. 1t
was supposed when the improvement Of
the flats was planned that the gates OF
what is known as the tidal reservoir
would be effective in allowing a wash
through the channel and thus preserve
its depth. This plan does not seem to
have been effective, and not only is the
bottom shoaling, but bar is forming be,
tween the point of the reclaimed land
and GiesborO Point. The attention OF
the Secretary of War will be called to
the matter.
