Moving of Offices and the

Many Controversies.

mail The squabble over moving the
Miami postoffice was just settled last
week and now the citizens Of Yuma
county are taking sides so violently
that it will probably be necessary for
the postoffice department to send an
inspector there to judge Of the matter
in dispute
1t appears that for long time mail
for Quartzfte has been brought by car
rier from vicksburg, on the Southern
Pacific Recently citizens of Quartzite
and Bouse joined in a petition to the
department asking that the mail route
be changed TO Bouse instead of Vicks-
burg They asserted that from Bouse
to Quartzite was six miles shorter
than from Vicksburg to Quartzite and
that 1T was the logical route The de-
partment would probably have made
the change had not the other side
heard of It and filed a counter petition
alleging that although the Vicksburg-
Quartzite road is six miles longer, tt
is more than six miles better as far as
good roads are concerned, and that
they much preferred the route to stay
as 1t was. Both sides appealed to del
egate Cameron for help. but not being
familiar with it himself, and having
friends on both sides, he can do moth
ing but turn the arguments received
from each side over to the postoffice
department, and an inspector has been
ord cred down there to look the two
routes over.

Cataba Crowded.

Cataba, Va, Feb. S.-Despitc the
recent enlargement Of the State Tubcr-
culosis Sanatorium in the Catawa
Valley, the resident physician has re-
ported to the State Health Commissioner
that every bed is occupied and that ad-
ditional patients are clamoring for adj
mitance. This announcement has led
to many expressions Of regret and to 4
lengthy conference among the SAM
torlum officers during the last visit OF
the health commissioner. Following
the appropriation made by the last
session of assembly, several new pa
vlions we're erected at the sanatorium,
under plans which called for a maxi
mum lumber Of beds. BY this means,
the capacity OF the sanatorium was IN
creased during the autumn to Ito beds,
and it was hoped that these. with the
normal changes aDd cures amdng the
patients, would be sufficient to accomo-
date all applicants within reasonable
limits. The popularity aud success of
the sanatorium, however. has brought
a flood OF applications during recent
weeks.
Before leaving for Richmond today,
Health Commissioner Williams dis
cussed the situation at the salIatorlnm
and expressed his deep regret that the
state could not offer ample accomoda-
tons for the many patients who need
cd treatment. 1t may be possible"
he said, ito build an additional pa
wilton through our grounds are ex-
tremely limited. We shall do the best
We can, however, and want tie people
to know that every energy Will be
strained to find quarters Tor those who
wish treatment.
