TEN FULL YEARS OF
FAITHFUL SERVICE

Kendrick, Idaho, April /. 1914
Mr.. Editor-I have to-day complet-
ed ten years of service as rural mail
carrier on route one. Ihave never
missed trip nor been compelled to
turn back. After deducting all Sum
days and legal holidays I find that I
have carried the mail 314O days,
my route is II miles long and II
times 314O equals 5338O miles actual
travel or more than twice around the
world.
have delivered to the patrons
on route one, in the ten years, $780,
600 pieces of mail, this includes
letters. cards, news papers. circulars
and packages. I have collected
90, 900 pieces of mail on the route
in ten years, this also includes letters
cards and packages.
have on an average issued 80
money orders per month which
makes 5000, in the ten years. I have
made mistakes, many of then, who
does not make mistakes but I
have done or tried to do my whole
duty. There has been some very
bad storms, especially the snow
storms year ago last winter. but
managed to get the mail to every
patron on the route. The people
on this route, with possible one or
two exceptions, have been very kind
and good to me. Take the people
on this route as whole and I do not
believe better class of people live
in the north west than the people on
American Ridge. I am aware of
the fact that l have some very bitter
enemies on this ridge but their
enmity is caused by personal matters
and not as a mail carrier. But
while l have one or two personal
enemies l have reasons to believe I
have some v-ry warm personal
friends on this ridge as any one
needs.
During the ten years that I have
carried the mail l have received
some very nice presents for which
| desire to thank the donors.
On next Tuesday April 7 I will
be o5 years old and Trilly, the old
white mare, who has done over
half of the travelling on this route
will be l8 years this spring.
believe we are both good for 10
years more of service. In conclusion
I desire to thank the people on my
route for their kindness to me in the
past and especially to Wade Keene
and George Davidson for kindness
sho an me during the snow storms
o-e year ago.
Respectfully Yours,
]. I. Mitcham.

WARSHIPs RACING
TOWARD MEXICO
Continued from page L.

| Jersey were ready but the sailing OF
the New Hampshire was delayed un.
til noon or two o'clock. A heavy
downpour of rain was tho curtain be-
hin6 which the movements of feet
OF small craft preparing the battle
ships for their long trip were hidden.
The rain poured in torrents all night
and continued today.
Hampton Roads was busting with
craft. Small navy tenders, tug boats
and lighters criss-crossed through the
water. Officers and blue Jackets we're
taken to and from the Portsmouth
navy yard docks and Old Point Com
fort. Tenders awaited steamers ar
irving early this morning from Wash
ington and Baltimore with ofRicers and
men who are to board the squadron.
All night long the harbor and roads
were alive with craft. Red and green
lights flashed their signals.
The naval training station was
drained Of men to fill places OF men
on shore leave who could not be
reached with the rush orders for
Tampico. Boatswain crews we're out
all night rounding up the stragglers.
Many Of the crew of the New Hamp-
shire were on leave in Norfolk. New
port News and Old Point Comfort.
Much difficulty was had in locating
the men, particularly those Of the
New Hampshire. Coalers emptiec'
their cargoes into the bunkers Of the
battleships all night long. Each
dreadnought was laden to the limit
of its capacity.
After leaving the Portsmouth yards
the ships swung restively under leash
OF only one light anchor each on
Lynn Haven bay. awaiting the final
flash from Rear Admiral Badger. His
private launch scurried to and fro
between the ships Of his command
this morning for final conferences
with the captains and commanders OF
the vessels of the fiotilla.
That every ship should be in motion
toward Cape Henry before noon was
the imperative direction Of Admiral
Badger. The original sailing orders
were to raise anchors at II o'clock,
but such rapid progress was made
during the night that Badger showed
ahead the tentative sailing time to
ten o'clock. This would mean they
would clear the capes" by II.
Final direction from the navy de-
partment we're awaited by Admiral
Bad ger. The wireless OF the Arkan-
sas kept him in constant communica-
ton direct with Washington through
the Portsmouth yard. Admiral Fiske,
chief of bureau Of operations of the
navy department, came from wash
ington with special instructions from
Secretary Daniels. He gave Badger
detailed account of the incidents
which led up to yesterdays orders
for the fleet to move.
