Trouble for Postmaster Jewett

At one minute past IL o'clock
last Monday night railway mail
clerks and postmasters through
out the United States began the
weighing of mails and counting
each and every piece of mail de-
posted for transmission and will
continue to weigh and count for
thirty days in obedienbe to a
general order by the postmaster
general authorized by an act of
congress. This work, in addition
to the regular duties, is giving
Postmaster Jewett and his assist
ants plenty to do these days and
they will probably think-at the
end of the 80 days-that they
have made a close call toward
earning their salaries.
In the regular appropriation
I bill for the postal service, APP
proved March /, the clause re-
curing the weighing for thirty
days was inserted. 1t is the first
time IN the history OF the post
office department that the weigh
ing of all mail matter in all trains
over all routes on which mail
clerks are employed has been re.
quired. In former years in order
to arrive at an average, special
persons were set aside to de.
termine the amount of a certain
class of mail carried over certain
routes, or in certain postal
sections Of the United States.
The object of the 80 days tria.
is to give the department ant
congress reliable statistics te
determine the cost of handling
and transporting different classe:
of mail matter. 81
| For this special thirty days
weighing test Congress made ar
appropriation of $500, 900.

New Ruling for Final Proof.

In view of the fact that many
of the United States land Offices
are so crowded with applications
to make final proof that it is i'm
possible to fix dates for several
months-thus causing great
hardships in some instances to
settlers who have complied with
the law and desire to make COM
mutation proofs and leave their
land during the winter months,
the commissioned of the general
land Office has made a ruling
calculated to relieve a large
number of claimants.
Under the existing rulings
claimants are required to remain
continuously upon claims, up to
final proof, which would result
in great hardship to these who
have resided upon, cultivated
and improved their claims for
the statutory period, are Obliged
to leave the claims for the pur-
pose OF earning money for their
support or for further develop.
ment.
Where applications to make
final proof are accompanied by
afidavits setting forth briefly
the facts as to the period oil
actual residence, the amount Of
cultivation and improvements,
and why absence is desired, the
absence of claimants from ant
after the filing of application
until the day fixed by the loca
officers for submission of proof
will not prevent applicants from
making such proof on the day
set.

Thursday, Oct. 3, 1907.

This seems to be the "open
season" for killing people with
automobiles. Scarcely day
passes that the public press does
not report fatality. The
victims of the wrecks get but
little sympathy. Those who are
dead couldn't appreciate it if
they did. Many of the auto
drivers are speed mad. If they
endangered only themselves the
fatalities could be viewed by the
rest of mankind with more
equanimity, but their sixty miles
an hour flying over roads I'M
known to them kills off innocent
spectators and others who are so
unfortunate as to be compelled
to travel on or cross the public
highways. The modern Moloch
is crushing too many lives-need-
lessly. Harsh restrictions are
invited by the follies of the few
and will descend upon the many
unless some check-induced by
their own better sense-arises
within the ranks of the speeding
motorists.
