is AnEiously Awaited.
Parties in from Cornish today state
that the decision OF federal Judge
Dickersuu in the post Office case Is
awaited with much interest by the cit
zens Of the town. The feeling Is so
bitter. IL is said, between the citizens
OF the new and old towns that trouble
is likely To result
1t is remembered that the citizens of
Cornish awoke one morning recently
and found that the postofIice had been
moved TO a new addition of the town.
II is stated that when the mail arrived
the carrier refused TO take II to the
new location. but delivered It to the
site from which the old postoflice had
been moved. The Cornish postofiice
has been established for thirteen
years and some of the citizens claim
that il was moved without authority
of law from the department They
have therefore asked Judge Dickerson
TO issue an order compelling the new
town builders to return the building
to its former site
The postonice fight has divided a
portion OF the town and there has
been considerable feeling In the mat.
ter It is feared that Judge Dicker-
sons order. whatever it might be.
will cause trouble. though il IS i'm
probable.
