Mail via Madras
Next Monday.
Mail service to Central and In
terior Oregon will be established
over the Oregon Trunk Railway
April 10.
A contract was entered into last
week between the Government offi
cials and the traffic department of
tbe railway, which will continue
in effect for a year. All the mail
for stations on the line of tbe Ore
gon Trunk will be carried, as will
that for Prineville, Bend, Red
mond and other points in tbe in
terior of the state that now are
served out of Shaniko. Mail mat
ter will be delivered in Madras
and other towns on tbe railroad at
least 24 hours earlier than at pres
ent, and in some places the time
made by the stage will be cut down
nearly 48 hours.
Application for this service waB
made to the postoffice department
ai soon as the Oregon Trunk
started operating over the new
road, but the request had to be
handled through tbe usual chan
nel of officials between Portland
and Washington, with the result
that inauguration of quick deliv
ery was delayed more than a
month.
The express companies started
sending their consignments over
the new road on the second day
after it was opened for traffic.
Oregonian.
St. Paul Capitalist Here.
Mr. and Mrs. A. A. White of St.
Paul, Minn., are in Prineville this
week looking after their interests
here. Mr. White bought the Poin
dexter Hotel property last fall and
is here for the purpose of fixing it
up and putting it in first-class
fhape. Mr. White has extensive
interests in Mexico and went south
for the purpose of inspecting them.
When be got to El Paso, Texas, he
changed bis mind. Not that he
was afraid, but railroad travel was
so uncertain he decided to call off
the trip for the present. He was
among the sightseers that crossed
the Rio Grande from Texas to wit
ness the ''rucksion" in Mexico.
Tbe town he visited was captured
by the insurgents and was in
danger of momentary attack by
the federals. He didn't stay long.
Mrs. White, however, didn't get
cold feet and wanted to see what it
was all about.
