Under the Impression that there are nearly 4000 residents Inside the city limits, Welser citizens are so wroth over the allowing of only 2600 population by. the censua bureau that a special count for the town's own satisfaction Is under con sideration.

Mr Dorand said a) mall should come from Opal City or Culver Junction to Prinevllle. because mall clerks ran to those points on the Oregon Trunk now.

The United States Steel corporation yesterday declared Un regular dividend of 1 per cent on its preferred stock and 114 per cent on the common stock. The quar terly earnings show a total of 23. 600,000, compared with $25,990,000 for the last- quarter. Portland will benefit greatly Insofar as. postal service Is concerned through the securing of the chairmanship of the senate committee on postal affairs by Senator Bourne, it la believed by Post master Merrick, and In fact the prob able selection of Bourpe for the chair manahlp of this committee has slready had ita effect In making it easier to se cure the additional help needed in the Portland finsi office. The last half dosn requests for bet ter 'service for Portland have been act ed .upon with remarkable promptness, It la said, all due to the fact that Bourne baa been considered the most probable candidate for chairman of thla committee- rertLandl Ton Vow, Probably the moat important reault of having an Oregon senator at the head of this ' committee will be that Port land, which hitherto has been uniform ly discriminated against when It came to securing thet1ume the postal service had for the Pacific northwest, may in the future get more nearly her share of department headquarters. For instsnce tha headquarters for the railway mall service for the northwest are now at Seattle, although Portland la mucn nearer in geogTspnicai ana commercial center of the territory, be- sides being more of a ralroad center than the Sound city. The headquarters or the post offlco Inspectors for the northwest are In Spokane, far removed from the activi ties where the post office Inspectors are most badly needed. The ned of a city Inspector In Pot Uand Is' a pressing one, it Is said. At present Portland has to wait If an Inspector Is needed, some times ten or twelve days, until one can find time to come here from some other city. Action Delayed. There are many complaints from peo ple who have lost articles in the mall or who are concerned In cases where the malls have been used to defame or defraud, and frequently It Is Impossible to get action In these matters within a month of the time complaint Is filed. The post office Inspectors have an of fice in the federal building, but It Is usually closed , because the Inspectors are out of the city, going over accounts of a post office In Curry county or Malheur county or working on some caae In Seattle or Spokane. The help bf an Influential friend In the matter of the new post office build ing may also be valuable. It Is desired that the work on the building be pushed as much as possible when the site has been selected and powerful 'Influence at Washington may be required to see that Portland, which' needs a new building worse' than any other city In the coun try, probably, Is advanced on the super vising architect's Hit so that construc tion plans will be avatlable without do- KLAMATH CO. SHERIFF RELEASES CORA SEAT0N tSnectal Dtupatch to.Tb" Joornst. I Klamath Falls, Or.. April 26. The burning of the Shook barn and other In cendiary flrea near Bonanza, southeast ern Klamath county, will probably re main always uncleared, the- only tan gible hope of fastening guilt having disappeared with the release from the county Jail of Cora Stark, the woman held on suspicion. Mrs. Stark, who was formerly Cora Seaton and lived in the Shook neighborhood, was under consid eration by two grand Juries', both of which failed to indict. No evidence suf ficient to warrant bringing her before third Jury was gotten together by either ahertff or district attorney, so she waa let go.
