Yesterdays Downpour Played Havoc
With Streets,

More rain. and possibly. snow. is the
forecast for today. The ground hog did
not see his shadow yesterday and if tradi-
ton makes good we are promised an early
spring
The rains yesterday played havoc with
the streets in the lower sections of the
city. At various periods during the even
ing hours the streets running down from
the north and east benches resembled
rivers. Sewers were clogged and drain
pipes were rendered useless.
Cars met with delay and excavation
work suffered seriously from the rains.
Trenches were filled and caved in and in
places where banks of dirt had been
thrown up the rains tore them to pieces
and swept the dirt down the streets or
back into the trenches.

MOVEMENT IS ON
TO TAKE CENSUS
Letter Carriers Seek to Have
Legislature Authorize
the Work.
MEANS MONEY TO THEM
POPULATION OF 10000 MEANS
FIRST CLASS CITY.

! A movement among the letter car
riers and others interested in the sub
ject looks toward steps being taken by
the legislature to authorize a census oil
Salt Lake City.
| The matter of a census of the popula-
ton will come UP before the board OF
| governors of the Commercial club
! Tuesday. and it is expected that some
definite plan will be outlined. if not en-
dorsed, by which a census of the city
can be taken.
IT is contended that public pride de-
mands Il census to determine officially
at this time just what is the population
of the city. In the past year suburbs
have been added to the city, and this,
together with that population which
has been added through influx and ma
tural growth, gives the city an esti-
mated population of $4,000.
The letter carriers. acting as ndi-
vidual citizens, and not as body, have
been the most progressive in the move
ment. They have kept a close watch on
the population of the city for the past
two years, and especially of late they
have been active i'm an endeavor to as
certain how the population stands. In
speaking of the matter Saturday
night, one of the carriers stated that
figures show that the minimum esti-
mate is population of $4,000 today.
Means Considerable Money.
The letter carriers are interested in
the taking of an official census by rea-
son of the fact that should the city
show population of $4,000 or over each
OF their salaries would be raised $15O a
year The maximum salary paid at the
present time is $3.50, and the lowest
salary paid is $500.
While the Salt Lake DostOfIice is of
the first class so far as the receipts on
stamped paper and registry are con-
cerned. 1t still remains in the second
class with regard TO the letter carriers.
This is due to the fact that, officially
speaking, the population Of the city
stands below the $4,000 mark.
The carriers feel that SO long as the
city really does possess a population of
more than 10000 that the fact should be
officially recorded so that they could re-
ceive the amount of salary which by
rights of population belongs to them.
A postoffice official. speaking of the
matter Saturday, said:
L believe that a census is needed at
this time and that the legislature
should act in the matter. or course, il
would mean a whole lot to the carriers.
but i would say that it means far more
to the people of the city. There are
ffty-SeVen carriers lin service lere
With first-class salaries and an addi-
tional raise which the postmaster gem
eral has recommended, Salt Lake mail
carriers would receive a total increase
of S26, 500
With the population OF the city Of
ficially set at $4,000 or mort each car
rier who has been in the service more
than three years would receive 81 900 a
year. The Increase in salaries of car
riers of frst-class postoffices, as re-
commended by the postmaster general
would place the maximum salary Of
carriers at $1,000 year"

RURAL DELIVERY
BY TROLLEY WIRE
Invention That Threatens
Jobs of Numerous Gov
eminent Employees.

An inventor at Corning, n. Y, has
advised the department OF an automatic
transportation system which he claims

Of small cars propelled by electricity
upon wires at n height OF twenty 10
thirty feet from the ground. Stations
are provided at different points along the
line. where an automatic releasing de-
vice drops the car TO receive and de-
post mail ana merchandise.
When a letter or parcel IS collected or
deposited an electric bell is rung at the
station and at the central office. II IS
said that the cars can be run at n speed
Of twenty-five miles an hour, and that
there can be any number OF cars used
