speaking OF the progress and the

thing of the very near future. Even
the cost of fence posts is becoming an
ever-increasing burden upon the
farmer and stockman.
The principal agents which destroy
structural timber are decay, fire. in

in a decreased length of life. which in

The executive offices of the White
house have been enlarged, renovated
and greatly improved, and made ready
for President Taft upon his return
from his Swing around the circle" of
states and territories. To public men
and others accustomed to frequent the
White house offices the new quarters
have a strange look. Only the main
entrance and the room set apart for
the press have been renovated. The
former entrance into Secretary Car
penter's room has given way for a cor
ridor leading toward the new addition.
The old and new portion of the office
building is marked by a wide corridor
extending east and west, from which
entrance Is had into the offices Of the
president and of Secretary Carpenter,
the cabinet room and the congression-
al and public waiting rooms. The
floor of this corridor, as are those
of the entire building, is of hard

| Postmaster General Hitchcock to-
day appointed a commission TO consid-
err h proposal of the Universal Pneu-
matte Transit company to construct
vacuum tubes between the general
postoffice and the Union station al
Cincinnati. Ohio. The committee will
begin the. investigation at one and
report to the postmaster general what
action would be feasible and desir-
able.
The commission is composed as fol-
lows:
Mr.. T.. n. Morgan, postmaster at
New York; Mr.. d. A. Campbell, post
master at Chicago, Ills; Mr.. E. c,
Mansfield, postmaster at Boston,
Mass; Mr.. r. l.. Ashurst, postmaster

tendent division of railway adjust
ments; Mr.. V. l.. Bradley, superinten-
dent of railway mail service, New
York, N. Y; Mr.. J. M. Masten, as
sistant superintendent of railway mail
service, and Mr.. f. NJ. Norris, assist
ant superintendent of salaries and
allowances.
The members Of the special commit
tee appointed by Postmaster General
Hitchcock to investigate the registry
system have gone to Baltimore and
New York. where they will examine
experiments which are being carried
on similar to those being made in the
Washington city postoffice. The ex-
periments are being made with a view
of reducing the cost of operation with
out, in any way, impairing the eff
cheney OF the registry system.
1t is believed from the experiments
that have been made to date that the
registered package envelop can be
eliminated entirely, as we'll as many
other intermediary recordings, and
improve the method of delivery or
registered letters and packages by
carriers to the addressee. With but
slight changes, to meet local condi-
lions, it is believed that the methods
being experimental with can be made
applicable to all offices.
The members of this committee are:
Charles II. Mcbride, assistant SUPER
intendent railway mail service, New
York: George L. Wood, assistant SUI
perintendent division of'salaries n
allowances, and Henry d. Temple, as
sistant superintendent division of reg
istered mail.

IDAHO COUNTY
ORE EXHIBIT
VIII Be Held by the Lewiston
Club for Exploitation of
This Country.

The Lewiston Commercial club
Yesterday received letter from O.
c. Lapp, of Sites, conveying the in
formation that the Idaho county min
eral exhibit at the Alaska Yukon Pa
ci6c exposition can be brought to
Lewiston and placed on exhibition in
the Commercial club rooms. The
exhibit is very representative of the
Idaho county properties and with the
Nez Perez county mineral exhibit,
collected for the Seattle fair, will pro-
vide the nucleus for a most complete
exhibit of the mineral resources of the
country tributary to Lewiston.
The plans of the Commercial club
provide for an arrangement of the
ores by districts in show cases to be
secured and placed in a most con-
spicuous quarter of the club rooms.
The display will be of inestimable
value to the mining interests of the
country as all visitors to the city are
taken to the club rooms where they
will be brought in direct contact with
the mineral exhibit This exhibit at
tracted much attention at the Seattle
fair and was eagerly sought by the
University of Washington, University
Of Idaho, Washington State College,
the United States assay office of Seat
tie, and a mining bureau of Chicago.
