Postmaster Lemons Statement for
Year Interesting-An Extra
Clerk May be Needed.

Postmaster Lemon has prepared
Q report Of the money order business
at the North Yakima postofice for
the years Of 1906 and 1906. The re-
port shows An increase for the year
1905 over 1906 Of $Ie9.125.0s. The
business for the year 1905 amounted
to $310,597.21. Postmaster Lemon
has also prepared report Of the re-
ceipts for the sale Of postage stamps
for the months Of February 1906
and 1907 which shows q very ma
terial Increase during the month Of
February. pfs07.- over the correspond.
Ing period of 1906. The receipts for
1905, month Of February, amount to
s1,742.- for February, 1907. &2,102.
showing an increase Of $500.
The business of the postoffice in
this city has shown very material
increase in receipts for the month
on the sale of postage stamps over
preceding months, and also q large
increase In the money order business
each year. The business has in
creased to such an extent, and such
an amount of mail Is being handled
by the local Office that 1t very prob
able new clerk will be established
in the Office. This clerk will be on
duty nights and the Office will be
opened all night. Postmaster Lemon
has been endeavoring for quite a
while to have the postai officials APP
point another clerk in the Office for
night duty. and 1t is very probable
that Mr.. Lemons request will be
granted.
1t is thought that the clerk will
not be appointed for some time yet
This would facilitate matters
to a, great extent, as the mail
that comes in during the night could
ali be sorted and ready for distribu-
ton when the day force arrives. This
would also facilitate the work Of the
day clerks, as the business has in
creased to such an extent that It is
almost impossible for the present
force to handle it.
During the year 1905 the money
order business was exceptionally
heavy; 19,456 receipts for domestic
orders were issued, amounting to
$137,1S9.77, fees amounting to 81
ll9.42: 262 receipts for information

which compelled the instant and sum-
