Flagstaff is, after waiting pa- tiently for long time, to have a new up-to-date postoffice, with modern fixtures. The present postoffice has for long time been inadequate for the town and the boxes date back to the time of the establishment of the office. The new location is suitable one, and the friendly rivalry that ex- isted for the location of the office will be turned to rejoicing over the fact that we are to have post office that will be credit to the town.
