Important Change
In Mail Service
The postofliee department wired
Poatmaster Ledford yesterday that
commencing tills monilns and con
tinuing Indefinitely, he shall dispatch
from the Prineville office for Sbaniko
all malls In the office, the mall to
leare at seven o'clock a. m., Instead
of 1 p. m. as ha been the prevailing
schedule for ten years. This will
rearrange the entire system of mail
lines radiating from Prineville,
Beeause of the almost Impassable
roads and hepvy holiday mail which
Is now being handled, mails have
not made connection with the morn
ing train at Shaniko for some time.
The new arrangement will make this
connection possible under almost
any condition. The time for arrival
In 1'rlnevllle will be not later than 7
p. m. which will give business men
time to reply to their Important
letters for the morning mall.
This Is the first step In Improved
mall service, several ot which will be
made during next year.
