Spokane, Wash, April 20.-Om-
cial announcement is made that the
formal opening of the Spokane, Port
land & Seattle Railway company's
new line between this city and
will use the Northern Pacific tracks
from Spokane to Marshall Junction,
nine miles, until the completion OF
the work near the city. Two daily
trains will be operated, but the new
schedule, effective May %, will give
a more adequate service. The new
line is owned jointly by the Northern
Pacific and the Great Northern Rail-
way companies. 1t is one of the most
costly roads on the continent, some
of it costing 100000 a mile, while
part Of it, built along the rock cliffs.
involved an expenditure of $780, 900
a mile. 1t follows the Columbia
river to Portland and has a water
grade most Of the way.

CURED that boxes shall be erected
beside the wheel tracks, nor on any
particular corner of the crossroads;
but they must be erected within the
confines of the road, and accessible,
on any corner.
1t is not desirable that boxes be
attached to telegraph, telephone, or
electric-light poles, or to fences or
buildings, but boxes should be Sc
curely fastened to neat and strong
posts firmly set at the side of the
roads, at a sufficient height to be
served by carriers without rising
from their seats or reaching through
wheel spokes.
After boxes have been properly
relocated, and it is practicable to
curtail carriers schedules, postmas-
tiers will advise this office, SO that
changes in schedules may be consid-
cred.
When roads are in bad condition,
postmasters are directed to make re-
port thereof to the department, and
to the proper local road officials and
cooperate with them and patrons TO
the fullest extent, consistent with
position and duty. to secure the inn
provement of the roads. The NANTES
tation of interest and properly di-
rected efforts by ~postmasters in the
go%od-roads question will in many in
stances be productive of excellent re-
suits.
