PAPER ON THE
 YUKON WINTER MAILS

Vancouver World: In the early days of the Klondike rush, when facilities were crude and transporta- tion arrangements had frequently to be improvised the government adopt ed an easy-going method of handling the winter mails into the Yukon. This was to take in q limited num- Der of pounds of mail first class mail. of course. having priority. and the residue being made up of as much second class mail as could be brought within the statutory limit.
 A quarter of century has passed. We know there is no longer con- gestion of traffic in either winter or summer in the Yukon. Facilities of all kinds have bean improved and standardized. but the old practice of the government continues. Onlyl those who have spent the winter in the darkness and cold of the Far North can actually understand how sharp the deprivation involved in this practice At period when men are idle and when they have the long nights and the short. dark, mo- notonous days to fill in, they are un- able to secure the reading matter which would contribute so largely to their comfort and content. The eff feet is to deprive Yukoners of read ing matter when they have the lib- erty to peruse it. and to provide them with reading matter when every minute of the day is crowded with the rush of the summer work.
 IL is a small matter in the affairs of the postodice department. and a trilliHg expense In it's huge annual budget. but it is vital matter to the hardy group of men who occupy that part of the Dominion. We are sure that q little attention to the problem would suggest to depart mental officials some simple solu- tion.-Dawson News.

WINTER MAIL SEASON

The Yukon mail service for the winter of I22U-2l closed with the passage of the first steamers thru Lake Labarge within the last few days. During that long period the contractors fulfilled all conditions of their contract.
 It is true that some second class mail which reached WhttehOrse was delayed there and came down by boat. but the contractors hauled over the trail all the first class mail and every pound for which they con- tracted to deliver.
 Notwithstanding the fact they did not receive the contract until about the time for the service to begin last fall, they hustled the rigs and feed and equipment in general, and secured the use of roadhouses and gave an unbroken service all winter. Every rig got through exactly on schedule.
 It is noteworthy that, despite the severest weather and a number of heavy storms. the mail arrived in Dawson every day in the winter ser vicee on the scheduled day, namely. on Sunday. Fen the launches at the end of the season got through every Sunday. thus giving Dawson a regular and dependable service. Every pou~d the government paid for was delivered Those who claimed the service w3Gld not and could not be delivered by the new contractors have learned differently.
