A LOSING
Rural Delivery Carrier Asks to Be
Relieved.

Relieved.
After giving it a thorough test, S. j.
Hopple has arrived at the conclusion
that he does not care to be carrier
of rural free delivery route NoAl
amy longer and has rendered his resig-
nation to the government. The fact
is that he tired of the job some time
ago and once before asked to be re-
lieved, thus making this the second
time.
The route he serves must be cover
ed six times a geek and the distance
traversed each day is 30 miles. In
order that the demands of the service
may be complied with Mr.. Hoppe
lis obliged to employ four horses, as
one team is unable to do the work.
He receives as compensation the mu-
nificent sum of 5000 annually, about
the ordinary wages of a driver, thus
| leaving nothing as an offset for the
wear and tear of his stock and the
0ADCIISVS IlCluOluC ~ WOlh NJ AA0
kind, not to say anything of a profit.
His horses are beginning to break
down and he finds that he is losing
money daily, with no other satisfac-
tion than that afforded by the knowl-
edge that he is serving the public.
If the department heeds his second
resignation, his connection with the
service will cease soon, unless some
arrangements can be made by which
he may receive more than the pay
allowed by the government. In view
of the great accommodation the ser
vice has proved to the people served.
it has been suggested that possibly
those along the route, as we'll as some
in the city, particularly the merchants
might be induced to volunteer a lit
tile aid rather than see the route dis
continued. Unless something of thi'
sort lis done Mr.. Hoppe will be com
PEELED ITO quit.

gate tracts of Two or three hundred
acres which would depend on rain and
snow for their water supply.

Montreal, July 10.-Within the past
month the Canadian Pacific has placed an
order with the North British Locomotive
company Of Glasgow for twenty engines
with thte Canada Foundry company Of
Toronto for ten compound ten-wheel en-
gines to be delivered by September. 1904.
These orders were placed in competition
with American locomotive companies, the
principal reason for the orders going to
the British companies being that deliv-
cries within the time stipulated, from
American shops, were impossible. Anoth-
er reason Is that the company claims to
have found rolling stock supplied from the
Canadian shops both it's own and others,
quite up to the standard Of the American
engines and all other points being equal,
finds 1t good policy to place its orders
at home. The company expects to have
a thousand engines In use before the end
Of the fiscal year Of 1904. ......... E
