HORTON IS ON LIST
Brown County Town Gets Free
Mail Delivery.
Establishment Is Result of
Congressional Action.

Horton, Kan, March S.-Horton will
have free city mail delivery beginning
April L. Although Horton is a town
of $500 population, and many smaller
towns have free delivery, Horton has
never had it. This is accounted for
by the fact thai the Rock Island shops,
the principal industry of the town, do
not send their correspondence by Uni
ted States mail, but on the baggage
cars OF their trains. The annual post
Office receipts here amount to $4,000.
Ordinarily $4,000 income is required to
insure town free delivery, but last
summer congress passed an appropr1-
alton providing for the installation Of
experimental free delivery service in
towns which slightly lacked the re-
quired amount. United States Inspec-
tor j. S. Lindland recommended that
the service be established here, after
an examination. His territory covers
Kansas, Nebraska and Oklahoma, and
only four towns in this territory be-
side Horton have the experimental free
delivery: Wamego, Kan, ST. John.
Kan, Wymore. Neb.. and a town in
Oklahoma.

Places on the school board practically
have been conceded to them, and the
names of possible candidates have been

largely prompted by the fact that it
seems impossible to get a suitable male
candidate in the field, four business
men of the city whom the Commercial

for mayor having in turn refused to

who have been suggested for mayor
