There are signs that the country is
getting ready for improvement to
come. However, while trading in gen.

that mail order business is increasing

INTERESTING POLITICAL ITEMS IN
LEWIS COUNTY,

The lilo Register tips off the follow
ing political pointers in Lewis county
which are Of interest to citizens here:
Last week the political fires started
blazing in earnest in Lewis county dur
ing the Nezperce horse show.
The only man mentioned so far in
the democratic party as one around
whom the opposition to the present
board of county commissioners can CEN
ter is Mr.. Horning of Kamiah in the
first district against Nick Schlader
S. o. Tannahill will probably test the
democratic nomination for county at
torney with +. E. Fogg, and it prom
ises to be a pretty fight.
J. b. White for auditor, E. H. Rat
life for assessor. Miss Retta Martin
for school superintendent, James Car
lyle for surveyor and DIR. Parrish for
coroner have no avowed opposition at
the present time.
For prosecuting attorney. C.. Fl. Nu-
gent has been mentioned. but he seems
to be too busy looking after the in
terests Of County Attorney Fogg and
Judge Ailshie to take it.

Lowell Mall Route Discontinued Without
Warnine-Too Expensive.


The thricea week mail route between
miles. was discontinued this week by
order of some of the "brain men" back
in Washington and now people living
along the Middle Fork are left entire
ly without mail service
Thirty families were served along this
route, as well as large number of sin
gle men. some of them on homesteads
others in the employ of pole and tie
contractors and the national forest
service. Fully 200 people will be effect
ed by this fool ruling. and II the Off
Gals responsible for 1t could hear some
of the comments made in regard to this
matter they would soon realize that
they have stirred up whole lot of
people who are worthy of better treat
ment at the hands of the postal author
tiles
The main reason for disseminating the
service was because the department
head got an idea that the bids submit
ted for this work were too high. They
did not take into consideration the fact
that this is a pack horse route, and that
besides packing mail and bulky parcel
post truck 1t is also necessary to pack
horse feed at all seasons of the year
In the winter months the carrier is
compelled to shovel snow out of the
trails. and If the official who thought
II advisable to discontinue the route on
account of 1t being too expensive was
to make one trip with the carrier he
would not be so apt to consider the
bids for the work too high.
An effort is being made to have this
matter reconsidered by the ones re-
sponsible for such an unbusinesslike
move and II the fair thing is done 1t
won't be long before the people in the
territory affected will be receiving mail
as usual-Kooskia Mountaineer.
This Is something on the order of the
Adams Camp office, which the Grange
Vile Commercial club, business men, pa
irons of the line and the Idaho con-
gressional delegation have all been try
ing in vain for months to have restor-
ed. The autocratic moguls at Washing
ton pronounce the office not self-sup-
porting and therefore too expensive to
indulge in. Such ruling. II generally
applied. would abolish the entire postal
system. And IL t Is fair to apply it
