TO RESTRICT RURAL SERVICE
Postoffice Department Proposes "a
Curtail Salaries.

Washington. March From state
ments made few days ago by Mr..
Hitchcock. the first assistant post
master general. 1t is evident that the
postoffice department in the spirit Of
economy intends to restrict and to a
certain extent cut down the rural free
delivery service. The salary Of the
carriers is to be cut frosn an average
Of s7o712 year to $500 per year.
The department Is also In some
places changing a daily service to tri-
weekly. This is regarded by senators
and congressman from southern and
western states as poor piece Of econ
omy. They look upon the rural free
delivery as the greatest boon ever ex-
tended to the country people. and just
when the system is getting firmly es-
tablished and in good working order. 1t
seems that it should be extended in
stead of restricted. BY this move the
government will save about million
dollars.
This, however. would be very good
the departments. but the postoffice de-
partment intends to pay to all the rail-
roads over three millions dollars more
than last year for carrying the mails.
A strong effort will be made especially
by senators and representatives from
western states to prevent the rural
free delivery service from being re-
stricted.

BODY LIES
UNCLAIMED
Corpse but Eastern Relatives Do.
clare Now Il Isn't Theirs.

The body Of John NJ. Clark still lies
in the vault at the Jeager undertaking
parlors unburied though 1t is likely
that Mr.. Jaeger will inter the body
among the county poor today or to-
morrow. Clark died at Waha on the
9Th day of January and his body was
brought at once to Lewiston and en-
balmed, as 1t was presumed that his
relatives in Ohio would want the body
sent there for interment.
Mr.. Jaeger has had several letters of
inquiry from persons in the vicinity of
Marietta, Ohio, where Clark said his
people lived. but there is no claim yet
for the body because the relatives
there. II they are relatives of the de-
ceased, do not feel assured that the
right man has been found.
Their description Of missing rela-
tive is widely different from the de-
scription Of the deceased as the people
here knew him. but not so different.
Mr.. Jaeger thinks. as would be found
in any person between the flush of
youth and health and after years of
wasting disease.
But the persons who are most likely
to be the relatives of John NJ. Clark
deceased will make no claim on the
body and he Is likely to sleep in a pau
per's grave.
