INTO
THE NEW
QUARTERS
Arranging to Move
the POStOffice
First Mail Will Be Delivered
April
Extra Men at Work TO Get
Everything In Readiness

II is the present plan of Postmaster
Hlrsch to make the first delivery Of
mail from the new Salem postoffice on
Wednesday, April /. Orders have
been received from the government
authorities directing that the new
post Office building be occupied on
that date The initial steps towards
accomplishing the removal of the local
mail department TO the new quarters
are being taken this week. To re.
move a post Office department of the
proportions OF the Salem post office is
no small undertaking. The task must
be so performed that the regular op
Grafton Of the department in the hand
ling OF the mails is not to be inter
upted. for nothing is permitted to in.
terfere with this important depart.
ment OF the federal government.
An increased force Of workmen Is
employed in fastening the construc.
ton work on the new building and
Contractor Campbell expects to have
the main part OF II entirely complet.
ed and ready for occupancy on the
date that has been designated by the
government authorities. The entire
lower floor and the basement will be
finished, while the upper story Of the
building will remain in an uncom.
pleted state and will be finished later
AZ the present time there Is no pres.
sing need for the quarters that are
arranged on the upper floor, since the
postoiIice force will have ample ac
commodations on the lower floor and
the basement.
The grounds surrounding the build
ing will not present a very crcditable
appearance. The unexpended balance
OF the appropriation that was made
for the building win be insufficient
to place the square In the condition
that the building deserves IL will
be necessary 20 defer this work OF
beautifying the grounds until an ad
ditional appropriation can be secured
from congress. The walks and ap.
proaches 20 the building are being es
tablished; but otherwise no improve
ments viii be attempted now Cir
cular cement walks will extend from
the Church street corners OF State and
Court streets 10 the main entrance at
the west side OF the building. Near
the west corners OF the building and
within a few yards OF the structure
the cement walks will divide and ex.
tend around either end OF the building
and unite with the bicycle paths on
the Court and State street sides OF the
post ONCE and within a few feet Of
the Cottage street side OF the square.
Patrons of the ofiice are selecting
their mail boxes in the post Office as
II will be arranged. There will be the
same number OF boxes for rent, about
500 and the rental will be 80 and as
cents per quarter. according TO loca.
ton. Box selections are now being
made, unexpired rentals in the present
building. OF course, being applied on
the boxes in the new buildings.

THE PEOPLE WILL DO 1T.
\ smooth Talker and Little Music Catch
the pOcketbOok.

There is more truth than poetry in
the slang phrase that "a sucker is born
every minute" Let a smooth -tongued
fakir open up stand ON the street cor.
ner, amuse the crowd with little mu-
sic and he can sell the people medicine,
merchandise or hot air at almost any
old price. 1t is not because these very
same people are not warned often
enough against such devices to obtain
their hard earned money, but as Barnum
truthfully said, "the American people
like to be humbuRged," and they GER
tainly do get it right.
AS an illustration, smooth tonRued
gent opened a stand on our street last
Tuesday night and remained until
Wednesday evening, and his business
was 10 sell merchandise of various kinds
he conducted himself as q gentleman
and did legitimate business as far as
he was concerned, but the persons who
patronlzed him were Of the opinion that
they we're going 20 get something for
nothing, when in reality they were pay.
ing considerable more than they would
have been obliged TO pay our home mer-
chants for the same articles. Bibles
that the fakir sold for $l.0O can be
bought right here for 80 cents; lead
pencils that he sold like hot cakes, "a for
20 cents, are sold in any little country
store at three dozen for the same price,
and so on down the line including sta
tionery and hardware, in fact every
article. By a careful inquiry on the
part Of The Record it was found that
the fakir made 100 per cent profit on all
of his sales and those who patronized
him could have saved money had they
bought their goods Of home merchants
who help to sustain the town in which
they live and contribute their money to
keep up its institutions.

REAKES WILL WRESTLE
The Michigan Champion Will Meet n Wis
consion Man Mt the Opera House.

Bobby Reakes, the Michigan man who
is acknowledged as the champion mixed
wrestler OF the world, will meet Geo.
Montgomery, Of Wisconsin, at the opera
house in Alma Saturday evening, Aug
ust 10, for purse of 5000 and gate re-
oeipts, the conditions being best two out
Of three falls, catch-as-catch-can, Po-
lice Gazette rules to govern, both men TO
weigh in at the mat that night not to
exceed 1873 pounds.
Besides being a champion, Mr.. Reakes
is remarkable man, as the sporting
fraternity in general, as is we'll known,
are class who use intoxicating liquors
and tobacco to a greater or less extent,
but he is an exception to the rule. He
has never in the course Of his existence
touched drop OF liquor OF any sort,
nor has he used tobacco in any Of it's
forms
Lovers Of clean sport are promised
something good, as Mr.. Reakes is conf
dent that the man he is TO meet is not
very easy one TO throw, although has
never met him personally.
