Gallagher with a view of increas ing the efficiency and reducing the expenses. Beginning September 1 the auxiliary clerical allowance was cut down 637 per year. The street letter carriers have rad additions put upon their routes and further additions are contemplated. Two of the letter carrier routes have had their leaving time from the office advanced one hour earlier in the morning and the schedule for the departure of the rural carrier will again be advanced, leaving the of fice at 8 o'clock in the morning. The rearrangement also allows for the caring for all mail dropped into the postoffice up to half an hour before the departure of the Shasta Limited trains in the early morning hours both north and south. Other minor changes improving the srevice have been introduced. Postmaster E. J. Kaiser reports that the readjustment has been due ever since First Assistant Postmas ter General Daniel C. Roper visited Oregon a year ago and directed an inquiry into the Oregon postoffices. The O. & C. grant locating frauds, orchard company frauds and other gigantic swindles have kept the post office inspectors in Oregon so busy the past year that the introduction of these reforms in the local office has been delayed for some months. There are many ways in which the public can aid in reducing the labor and expense of the postal service, among which are: Large patrons facing their mail, separating the pieces by local and outgoing classes, and the letters by long and short sizes; by posting their mailings as early in the day and as frequently as possible so as to avoid congestion in the evening and Insure prompt despatch; to deposit their mall, if practicable, at the main office in stead of in street letter boxes; to call at the postoffice in the morning for heavy incoming mails; to supply sufficient addresses on their station ery, In return cards and In the ordi nary direction on outgoing mall; and to provide mail receptacles as near the street as possible for carriers.

Keeney this year, according to announcement of that official recently. Mr. Keeney for nearly a year has been contemplating this reduction, and when he sent his deputies into the field last spring he gave them Instructions to act in accordance with this decision. As sessor Keeney said that this reduc tion will lower the assessed valua tion of the property in the county about $4,600,000, and he expects that the total assessed valuation will be something like $8,000,000 less than it was last year. This Is ac counted for, he says, by the fact that the O. & C. grant lands, valued at 13,320,915. are left off the roll, the reduction on land values will take off about $4,500,000, and It is possi ble that the state tax commission will make a big reduction in the val uatlon of public service corporations Stop Working During the Jackson County Fair, Sept. 13-16.
