TEMPE NEWS NOTES
COLLECTION BOXES FOR
 P. D. MAIL SERVICE
Last improvement to Complete City
 Delivery Service Is Installed

Completing the list of public utili- tv accommodations for which d movement was started almost two years ago, three mail receiving box es were installed by the postoffice at important street cor ners in Tempe yesterday. Regular collections will be commenced today and postals, letters or other matter, mailed in these receptacles, will gc out on their respective trains as promptly as if they were mailed at the postOffice.
 The request for the receiving boxes was sent in to the postal department of the government with the first re- quest two years or more ago, for the free deliverey service in Tempe At the same time the house numbering of the thoroughfares within the city limits were designated by the neat little street signs of black and white at each alternate corner. The com bined improvements facilitated the work of the city carrier materially and made his service as well up to date as might be received in a city. The receiving boxes on the corners
 
 the several requests that went in for improvements.
 The new boxes are installed, one at the northeast corner of the normal school campus for the benefit of Goldman addition and East Tempe residents, and two in the business district, one at the Tempe National Bank corner and the other at the L. ner. Collections will be made three times each day, one to catch the Winkelman mail, one to catch the 4 40 train for the eastern mail and one at 6 o'clock for the California and westbound mail

Governor Trammell was recently
compelled to decline an invitation
to attend the convention in Chat
tanooga called to promote the Dixie
Highway which it is proposed to
have constructed between New York
and Florida. He was in full SYM
pathy with the plan, but he was
overwhelmed with work in view of
the fact that the legislature NETS
the fact that the legislature meets
the time to 60 to Chattanooga.
Since he declined the invitation he
has been criticized by a number Of
people and papers as though he had
committed some grave offense, some
shocking breach of prpriety and
had without reason or excuse made
himself an obstacle, if not an
enemy, to the great cause of good
roads. The criticisms were grossly
unjust. If not malicious, the COVER
nor's reason for not going to the
convention being perfectly valid and
conclusive, and we are glad to see
that the State Good Roads Conven-
tion in st. Petersburg passed reso-
buttons fully endorsing his course.

The biggest, industrial concern in
North America is the United States
Steel Corporation and it is the quick
est to respond to the influence Of
good or bad times. The other day it
added fifteen hundred men to its
payroll and six of its eight blast
furnaces at its great plant at Gary,
Indiana, are again in operation and
there are orders in hand to keep the
works in operation for many months.
And news of this same character of
reviving industrial activity is COM
ing from all parts Of the country.
But for the hurt to our commerce
and industries by the war in Europe
times would be entirely normal anA
prosperous in the United States, and
except among the hidebound and
hopelesly prejudiced in politics who
still hold to the simple and primi-
tive delusion that the party in pow
er makes good or bad times, nobody
now charges the Democratic party
with the depression from which the
country IL 90 rapidly recovering.
