Wants Funds for Mail Carrier
Editor News: Having been se
lected by G. E. Mowers, mall carrier
on It. F. I). No. .1, Hood River, to
solicit contributions for the benefit
of the route, I desire to make my re
port through the press, having failed
to get enough patrons of the route
together to hold a meeting. It was
understood by Mr. Mowers when he
went to work on the route that a
fund of flOO would be raised, placed
In the bank, and he would receive
$25 a mouth from It. He has beeu
at work since the 10th of March, and
no effort was made to raise the sub
sidy until my work was commenced
sometime during the latter part of
July. 1 put In about one full week
and covered the whole route. Sub
scriptions to the amount of $1M).2."
were signed, of which 140.75 were
paid In cash. Many people who un
derstand the situation gave ffc"Ny
and cheerfully, but there were some
who refused to give anything. Of
these, some called It graft, others
said we should go on a strike, dis
continue all mall routes In Hood
River, and then the goverumeut
would come to terms and raise the
wages of our carriers. Again, there
are those who can not afford to pay
to keep up the route. Some of these
said that a job like the mail currier's,
at $"." a month, would look good to
them. Some seemed to think they
were giving to charity when they
gave up a dollar or so to the mall
carrier. Far from being charity, it
is strictly a business proposition.
We have the mail route; the govern
ment pays $900 a yea r for its main
tenance. We know $!WU Is not
enough and we know the depart
ment will pay no more. No man
will undertake to carry the route for
the gavernment pay, and we should
all be glad to contribute to make the
salary sufficient.
It will be seen that my week's
work of collecting failed to raise the
amount required. I therefore call
upon those who gave one dollar and
can afford to give more to Increase
their subscription and pay at But
ler's bank. And all those who sub
scriiieu anil laucu to pay me are
asked to pay at the bank. Two per
sone (one a woman) gave $.'! each.
Seventy-one persons gave a dollar
each; -V) gave $2 each, and the sums
ranged down to 25 cents. When Mr.
Mowers was asked to take the route,
I am told (not by him) several par
ties said they would give $5. But I
failed to And these parties, A good
many were away from home when I
called and were not Interviewed.
They can pay at the bank.
A meeting of the patrons of the
route should be called to meet, say
la Barrett district, when a commlt-U-e
should be selected to audit my
fluauclal report. To send a man out
collecting money with no one to re
port to Is not the proper thing to
do. Steps should be taken by the
citizens of the valley to have another
mall route established. Our carriers
have long distances to travel and
too much Is expected of them. De
livery of mail at 7 o'clock In the
evening In this day and nge. In Hood
River, rtoesn t well Jllie with our
boasted Hood River spirit. We need
more carriers anil they should lie
better paid and better equipped to
facilitate the delivery of mail. And
we want carriers who can and will
reach every mall box on his route
every delivery day In the year.
General satisfaction Is expressed
with the work of the present carrier.
He wishes to continue on the route!
but cannot do so unless the full $:hi
Is paid Into the bank. I
