by the fart that Postal Inspector
C. W. Linrbaugh, who visited
HilUboro the other day, has post-
d a notice calling for bids for a
building with at Usui 1800 feet
of floor space; asking for good
daylight accommodations; im
provement over some of the ap
paratus and furniture now in nse.
The bid ealla for a period of
five years as the least to be con-
Idered and for ten years, as
well. The government wishes to
occupy the quarters by Jan. 8,
9'it, when the lease on the pres
ent place expires.
It is more than likely that the
Odd Fellows will bid again, and
In this they have the pole on
competitors. All they will hsve
to do will be a vacation of a ten
ant on the North of the present

East wall of the structure instead
of the West wall, as now used.
little more wall light can be
made by inserting windows, and
there yon are.
The government has been pay

The HilUboro post office feeds
