It Is expected that by nightfall, If the storm continues, the car lines may be tied up tight and the cars unable to ; move which Is a pleasant prospect for people who have two or three miles to walk to get home to a hot dinner. Josselyn'an Optimist. -President Josselyn of the Portland Electric company says that streetcar traffic has not been interfered with at all, except that some of the cars: are running a little slower than usual. - The storm will not bother us at all," he said this noon.

She picked herself up. dusted the snow off, and looking up at the window where the Irreverent Cub was laughing, she gaily waved her hand and went on her way. But tears are close akin to laughter, and tragedy is often but a step beyond comedy.

Data which has been prepared by the Commercial club, much of it being fur nished by the mall and postofflce em ployes and officials, has been sent to Washington to back up the contentions of the Oregon delegation. This data shows clearly that Portland la the log ical location for the headquarters and It Is believed that the city will be chosen by the department when the se lection Is made. Briefly summed up the arguments In favor of Portland are about as follows: . Seattle has but two trunk lines ter minating in that City, the Great North ern and the Northern Pacific. Port land is the .terminal of four trunk lines, the Northern Pacific, Oregon Railway & Navigation company (Union Pacific. Spokane, Portland & Seattle and the Southern Pacific lines. All of these maintain division headquarters in Port land, with the exception of the North ern Pacific, which has headauarters for the passenger service here, and whichj will increase this representation -In then nfAr fntiir 'I Portland Lines Direct. Excepting Alaska, which has only 139 postofflces, Portland has direct train service with every point in the-new di vision and with the completion of the North Bank road Into Spokane will be able to cut off hours from any service that could be given the same towns by Seattle. It require 13 hours to go from- Seat tle to Spokane. The time from Portland to Spokane is the same at present but the North Batik road will reduce it to 10 hours. From Seattle to Ashland, the southern boundary of the -district, would require it nours. from h'ortiana to Asniana the time is now 14 hours and 46 min- J ules. From Seattle to Pocatello ts S8i hours. From Portland to Pocatello Is I 25 hours and 40 minutes. This same comparison will hold good of course for all Intermediate points in ! proportion to the distance. insuring j much qulekfi? time from Portland to . Kolse city, Nampa, Ontario, Payette, Welser, Huntington, Baker City, La Grande, Pendleton, Arlington, The Dalles, Hood Hlver, Walla Walla, Col- , fax, Lewiston and other cities in the i district. Portland is the headquarters of ap proximately 136 mail clerks. Seattle is the headquartersof 100 and Spokane 75. Portland How leds. Portland is the terminus for four full railway iiostofflee -trains. These are trains which carry so much mall that It 1 requires the exclusive use of one or j more cars for Its distribution and han dling. , O. R. & N. train No. 1 carries i two cars and in the near future will be . changed' to a fast mall train, carrying! fnur nr mnr fara Thin will ffivA Port- ' land the only fast mall train in the Pacific northwest. It is the Intention of the postofflce department to carry the bulk of the mall for north Pacific points on this train, thus placing Portland and the immediate territory on an equal foot ing with San Francisco and California points. "That ' Is what I'm laughing about.' replied tita.. plumber, and he wept off into another spasm. The other man telephoned out to his nouse anu round tnat his rears Had been realized.
