Grand Junction.-The entire mailing
system on the star routes in western
Colorado and eastern Utah are likely
to be tied up because of the new par
Gel post business. Bids which have
been sent to Washington for handling
the mail, most of which originates
here, have been made at prohibitive
figures and are all likely to be reject
ed by the government. The Uintah
railway, which runs from Mack, Colo
to Vernal. Utah. over what is said to
be the steepest road in the United
States. is baking on its contract
which calls for about $4,000 monthly
but which now is claimed to be short
of actual cost of carrying. The par
Gel post has become so heavy that
extra trains are required to take care
of the mail.
