FARMERS ARE SORE
Those on Green Mountain Routes Join
in Petition to Congressman Cousins
Asking Help to Secure Better Mail
Service on tho Great Western.

Farmers living on the rural mail
routes out OF Green Mountain have
reached point where patience ceases
to be a virtue, and because Of continued
delays to their mail service have join
ed in petition to Congressman Rob-
ert 6. Cousins, whom they ask to take
up with the postoffice department the
matter of poor mail service on the
Chicago Great Western
Green Mountain is only little sta
ton, to be sure, but the patrons of the
road and the tanners who ship only
over that road, think that they are en-
titled to some considerations At any
rate they want a regular mail service.
They want their daily papers, their
market reports and their letter mail
from the east, when they are fresh. and
not one or two days old. as is now often
the case.
Mail from this city, to patrons of the
Green Mountain routes, leaves Mar
shalltown at 1850 p. m. Green Noun
tain Is not night station, consequently
the pouch is carried to Waterloo and
brought south on the mail train due
here at $3.50 the next morning. This
train Is often late and, after waiting
a half hour, as required, the rural route
carriers leave the Green Mountain post
office without the mail. Many Green
Mountain farmers are stock raisers.
and are interested in the markets. Their
daily papers give them the market re-
ports, and when the train from the
north is more than half hour late
1t Is not until two days after the paper
is published that it reaches the SUBJ
scriber The same train, If delayed,
also makes all letter mail from Chicago
and points east, day late. The
farmers think that there Is no good ex-
cuse for this, and the petitioq to Mr..
Cousins. asking for relief, is the re-
suit.
j. G. Haas, former postmaster of I'm
ion, now Of Arapahoe, Neb., who is in
the city for a visit, receives his Times
Republican regularly every afternoon at
1905, the day following it's issue. Mr..
Haas lives ESQ miles west of Omaha,
or nearly 400 miles west Of MARSHALL
town, and reads his daily paper at noon
the day following its publication. Green
Mountain people, eight miles away, Of
ten wait two days before they get their
papers.

A settlement of the wage schedule of

ent G. S. Hayden and the Garments
Hayden. has offered the men of the de-
partment, an increase Of wages averag-
ing about 2h cents an hour. and the
local union of the International Assoc
citation of Car Workers voted Wednes-
day night to accept the offer condition
ally.
The conditions under which the I'M
ion voted to instruct its committee to
accept the proffered increase in pay
are only Of minor Importance, and it is
not thought they will interfere with a
settlement on the basis offered The
committee meets Mr. Hayden at 5
o'clock this evening.
The settlement, If reached, will be in
the nature Of compromise on wages.
The mems schedule asked for an in
crease of cents an hour. In some
cases, including those men of the de-
partments employed outside of the
shops, both here and elsewhere, along
the road, the company's proffered in
crease Is as much as asked. In other
cases it is not, but the smallest of the
increases is 2 cents an hour
A member of the committee this
morning said that he thought settle
ment would very probably be reached
this evening.
