Peak line are feeling much aggrieved
at what they consider the harsh treat
ment Of six of their number on the
Fourth of July. 1t appears that the
men had come to town TO do their
shopping on the Sd, and were assused
that, as usual, they would not need
permits for the journey. On their re
turn on the Fourth, they say, they
were thrown out of the train when
seven miles out on the prairie. This,
they say, is treatment which might be
expected in a wild country" but not
in a kind country" like this.

The department. in common with the

deserted appearance. Secretary Wilson

forest reserves. Chief Clerk Burch is in
Alaska, and is not expected 10 return
for several weeks. while a great many
of the officials and many clerks are en-
Toying their annual vacations at the
seashore, or at their respective homes in
the States.
one exception TO the dullness In evil
dence in most parts Of the department
IS the printing division, which is very
busy place. Foreman Frank Wallace
and his corps Of assistants are as busy
as bees supplying the growing demand
for printed matter. The department is
one of the best patrons that the Gov
eminent Printer has, and besides the
work done at the branch office, has
many thousands Of documents printed
at the main office. Statistics relating 20
the volume of printing done last year,
are now being prepared by the division
