Postmaster General Bulieson has is
sued an order TO the effect that here
after a letter may be attached to a par
eel post package providing that both
the package and the letter bear their
respective rates of postage and are
addressed to the same individual.
The sending of q communication with
a parcel poet package heretofore has
not been permissible. Postal officials
pointed out that it is often of the
utmost Importance that the sender of
an article of merchandise write a
letter concerning it and that, in or
der to avoid delay and facilitate the
transaction of business, it is highly
desirable that the parcels and com
~munications be delivered at the same
time. 1t was with this in mind that
Postmaster General Burleson signed
the order. The letter, or communica-
ton, however. is not to be inclosei
in the package, but is to be tied or
other " Use securely fastened to the out
side in such manner as TO prevent its
separation from the package. The new
order is expected to enlarge consider
ably the parcel post business.
The telephone girls at Fairmont,
MINI, went out on a strike on ac-
count of the promotion of Miss Grace
Martin, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Chas. Martin of this city, to the posi-
ton of CHEF operator. Their positions
are being filed by the manager from
other towns. Discussing the matter
the manager said his reason for giving
Miss Martin the position of chief over
the other girls was because of her
fitness for the position and that was
what governed all promotions in the
service. Another reason for giving
Miss Martin the preference in appoint
ment over the others, said the manag-
er, is that there was constant disaffec-
ton among the girls themselves and
not one of them could be depended up
on to take charge of the others. The
salary of the chief operator is $35 per
month and the other girls $50 per
month. In telling their side of the
story the girls said 1--WE think one of
Us who had been working for one or
two years is the one who should have
been given this place. If we did not
get the place we should have been
paid as much as the new girl any,
| way, because we have been in the
service of the company a long time. >

FEELING GOOD
Madison Citizens are Happy
Over Having Done
Good Work

Good evening Madison is feeling
pretty we'll, thank you The Electric
Short Line is assured. Madison citi
zens who have done their duty oy their
home town by suhcribing for stock in
the enterprise are happy, as they have
a right to be. The soliciting commit
tees who have had charge of the
work have reached so bear the SEQ,
900 goal that they feel that there is
no possibility of a slip in the deal.
1t is certainly a credit to the men who
have put their shoulders to the wheel
and boosted and also to the men who
have given of their means to the en-
terprise, hat In one week from the
day the committees started out their
work is so nearly completed that
they feel assured of success. OF course
the pattern had been set by Brookipgs
and Minnesota towns along the pro-
posed line of the road. Business men
of those towns bad thoroughly investi-
gated the reliability Of the company

mes, and with the report of Madison's

we're buying and the rest was easy.
We venture to say that the road will

would mislead. However. the com

in Minneapolis and are making large
contracts for materials and the sooner
they can reach this state the sooner
they will begin to realize on their i'm.

for the road to be built to this point.

upon at every annual electi "a, and the
license people must bring up the
issue or be left out, however willing
the voters of the town may be that
license shall prevail. The license
people have another advantage this
spring which thew have not had the
advantage of in former elections. this
being under the provisions of chapter
254. laws Of last session, which the
supreme court has construed to mean
that to carry license requires only a
majority of the votes cast on hat ques
tion. The old law required a favor
able vote of all voters voting at the
election to carry license, and tie man
who did not register a vote ON the
question counted against license as
much rs did the other who voted
against it directly. But the situation
is different this spring, and will mean
a lot of hot fights to carry close towns
which have kept salooBs out by small
msjorities under the old regulation.

Medford Hopes To
Be SaWmill Town

Medford has high hopes of becom-
ing a sawmill town-with pictur-
esque lumberjacks adding to the gai-
ETY. OF nations on her streets of a
Saturday night-when the work OF
logging 1000 acres of timber on the
watershed of Four Bit Creek begins
The tract-which is now put up for
bids by the governments estimated
to contain S7.5OO,OOO board feet and
its conversion into lumber will create
somewhat of hum OF industry.
Medford's hopes are not without
grounds. The timber lies in the
Crater Reserve ten miles bast Of
Butte Falls, whose only railroad out
let-unless Jim Hill connects up
with it from Central Oregon-is over
the thirty-three miles of the Pacific
& Eastern Railroad to Medford. It
is said that the logging OF this tract
was had in mind when the road was
built. -Ha
1t is estimated that the sawmill
and its accessories will cost a million
dollars and that a large number OF
men with be furnished with employ
ment Unfortunately, so far as the
relief OF present dull business is con.
cerned, the lucky bidder on the tract
has till the year 1926 to log II and
may not get busy for several years
though II is believed the mill will be
built and active operations begin i'm
mediately following the closing OF a
deal between the government and the
successful bidder.
