radical and dramatic move in army

way in which the army is being con-
Quoted" and lays It all to the system

State is represented.
The Secretary of War has made a
preliminary investigation, which has
proved TO him that the maintenance
Of all these posts, Of which he be-
lieves that 100 are unnecessary, is not
only demoralizing to the army. but
the most extravagant way Of wasting
Government money ever devised.
Plans TO Block Congress,
II Congress obstructs his policy Of
unifying the posts, the Secretary Of
War intends to use his executive
powers Of Withdrawing troops from
those posts which he believes are I'M
necessary. He declares he has absP-
lutte power in this direction. and, with
the Presidents consent, could concen.
trate the entire army in Washington
II he so desires He intends to use
this power in fighting Congress
should the latter determine to nullify
his policies of post concentration.

RURAL PATRONS
MUST WRAP COIN
DEPARTMENT PRO-
TEcTs CARRIER ON THE
COUNTRY ROUTES.

The carrier of the rural free delivery
mail for Uncle Sam does not have to
pick UP loose coins left in the boxes
for the purchase Of stamps hereafter.
An order to this effect Is published by
Postmaster G. w. McCarty.
To the patrons on rural routes out
of Ottumwa:
This office has received a commune
cation from the fourth assistant post
master general, division OF rural mails,
which calls attention to the matter OF
patrons on rural routes throwing loose
coins in the mail boxes. The state
ment is as follows:
Rural carriers are not required to
collect loose coins from rural mail
boxes"
Patrons should enclose coins in an
envelope, wrap them securely in paper,
or deposit them in coin-holding re-
ceptacle so they can be easily and
quickly taken from boxes, and carriers
will be required to lift such coins and
when accompanied by mail for dis
patch, attach the requisite stamps"
Carriers who lift coins not 80 en-
closed, wrapped or deposited, will do
SO as matter of accommodation and
not by any direction of the depart
ment.'
We do net want to appear unreason-
able, but the point is, that during the
cold weather especially, If the coins
are thrown loose in the mail box and
1t Is necessary for the carrier to take
OF his glove to pick them up, he suffers
from the cold unnecessarily.
We only ask that you put yourself in
the carriers place.
Respectfully,
Charles w. Mccarthy. Postmaster.
