A large dispatch of Outside mail arrived in charge of Carrier Pete Curran Friday afternoon. Both first and second class matter was included in the batch, which was made up largely of letter mail of mid November dates. altho num- Der of parties receiving letters dated as far back as September IT. As the Victoria did not leave Seattle on her last trip to Nome until Octo- Der 26, a month or more after these belated letters were posted, it ap- pears that something was decidedly wrong with the mail service last fall. The public. in view of these facts. has decidedly jutifiable rea- sons for complaint at mail service that holds up large quantities of first class mail while navigation is open, to forward it later by routes which require practically two months to cover.
