Necessary For Service.
Special to Times
Nevada, May 22.-Nevada is not to
have free mail delivery for another
year at least. That matter was set
tied definitely by a letter receibed by
Postmaster ]. NJ. Bricker from the de-
partment at Washington. in which it
was stated that the report Of the in
spectors who were here recently
showed that the city had failed in
meeting with some of the requirements.
This is in line with the way matters
have been conducted in this depart
ment for some time and the people OF
the city are not surprised. The busi-
ness Of the Office for the past fiscal
year was far in excess of the neces-
sary amounts and the lighting, side
walks, street markings, etc, had all
been properly looked after. Nevada and
Story county are decidedly republican
with no friend at Washington in close
touch with a decidedly democratic adj
ministration.
