Journal Banding,- Prin?HI, Oregon THURSDAY. JANUARY 16,1908 THE PRINEVILLE P0ST0FEICE For the six months ending Jan uary 1st the poetoffice department caused a record to be kept at ill poetoffice of the matter mailed and the amount of equipment carried in connection with the handling ot the mails. The re sult show some interesting fig ures. The FrineTille poetoffice, which has just completed a report for the months covered in the period mentioned, bandied 1400 pounds of first-class matter that represents a revenue to the de partment of $443. The weight of the fourth-class matter mailed reached but a little more than 1000 pounds, while the quantity of free matter that represents the mailing of communications in connection with the operation of the poetoffice and the Forest Ser vice reached a total weight of 638 pounds. The above figures do not begin to convey any idea ot the amount of transient mail handled here. But you can make a guess at the amount from the fact that the empty sacks and locks weighed sixteen tons.
