soon have q terminal railway postoffice.
The ma terial is on the ground and
work will be started at once on the
erection of a building for the housing
of the new department in the posta
department.. The new structure Will
be erected on the small depot park
south of the Burlington Union station
and will conform in architecture to the
construction of the depot
The new building will be about 30X
70 feet and will be only one story high.
1t will cost Approximately $4,000 and
will be credit to the city of Burling-
ton.
Contrary to the ideas OF many peo-
the Burlington Route and not by the
postoffice department. The reason for
this is that the roads are required to
furnish ample quarters for the hand
ling of the mail and as soon as the
parsels post became a reality and the
order establishing tel minal railway
postoffice in Burlington went into ef-
feet the present transfer station was
loullu 10 pe mucn TOO Snlail anu ,til'
contract was let to construct the new
office
1t is the plan of the department to
ship much of the second, third and
fourth class mail for Iowa distribution
to Burlington where it will be thrown
according to its destination instead of
beng sent on to Sioux City or thrown
al Chicago as is the case at the pres
ent time. Magazines will be shipped
here in the carload lots and will be sent
on freight trains and will then be
placed in the sacks here and shipped
out to arrive at the destination at the
time sought.
