Congressman Aswell is in re,
ceipC of the following letter from
the Fourth Assistant Postmaster
General which reveals the earnest
efforts and encouraging and COM
prehensive plans of the Postoffice
Department to extend our rural
mail service:
Washington, D. c.. D.,
June 0, 1915.
Hon. j. B. Aswell,
House of Representatives. ,
NV Dear Mr.. Aswell: During
the past two months, and after
consultation with the Postmaster
General, ! have been steadily en-
gagged in REIMBURSEMENT of the
rural delivery service in several
sections of the country where
uneconomical conditions prevail.
No material curtailment of
service has resulted anywhere,
but, on the contrary, the Depart
ment has been able, by effecting
changes in some routes where the
carriers are to continue the use of
horse-drawn vehicles, and by the
introduction of automobile equip.
ment on other routes, to extend
the benefits of rural mail delivery
to nearly one millionnew patrons
without increasing the aggregate
expenditure.
No patrons will be seriously in
convenienced, and the resultant
reductions in the cost OF operation
are such as to make available the
necessary funds for extending the
service in the immediate vicinity
of the readiusted routes, when
necessary, and also to establish
every rural route petitioned for.
and upon which action has been
withheld within the Department.
1t is the desire of the Postmas-
ter General that any funds made
available through these readjust
ment shall be expended in the i'm
of the rural delivery
service, to the end that a larger
number of citizens may be served
md the collection and delivery of
nail on routes standardized
throughout the country. This
'ontemplates that, as far as is
possible, all the people shall be
reated alike, and | shall be pleas
ID to receive from you Sugges-
ions IN regard to any reasonable
of the rural service in
our congressional district which
an probably be satisfied by the
sEision and rea1iustnent such as.
have indicated above.
Sincerely yours,
Jas. l. Blaskslee,
Fourth Asst. Postmaster Gen.

Do you know that of all the minor
ailments colds are by far the most dan.
gerous? It is not the colds themselves
that you need to fear, but the serious
diseases that they so often lead to.
For that reason every cold should be
gotten rid of with the least possible
delay. To accomplish this you will
find hamberlain's o1gh Remedy of
great help to you. It loosens a cold,
relieves the lungs, aids expectoration
and enables the system to throw off
the cold. For sale BY oil druggists.

to both employers and employees.
The case was that of Nordstrom ct

being injunction proceedings and
founded upon the lien law of Judge
WickershGm Gold dust was seized
by the marshal to satisfy debts of
others than the laborers incurred by
the Sivertson and Johnson dredge;
the plaintiffs had lien against the
property under the Wickersham act
and sought an injunction against the
marshal disposing of the gold. The
court dissolved the injunction, and
practically decided that under this
lien law the workers have no claim
against the gold in the boxes. He
decided that the lien is restricted to
gold bearing gravel in the form Of
dump.
