SIX BARS SILK
RAILWAY INSPECTOR
H. A. DURAND TRAVELS FROM
VICTORIA TO MKXKX).
Veteran Insvcctor Tells of tlte Oddi
ties of Mexican Travel Peons
Are Herded In Rough Cars Llko
Rata American Travel on Mexican
Railroads Makes a Stronger De
mand for Pullman Cars There
Dnties of tlie Inspector Are to Im
prove the Pullman Service In Every
Way Possible.
"The heaviest travel now moving
anywhere on the American continent
Is now westward over the transcon
tinental railroads to the Lewis and
Clark fair," said H. A. Durand, In
spector for the Pullman Palace Car
company, who was In the city this
morning on his way to Spokane on a
tour of Inspection In the Pullman ser
vice. Mr. Durand's territory reaches
from Victoria, B. C, to the City of
Mexico, and he covers every import
ant line of railroad In that Immense
expanse of country.
His duties are to Inspect the serv
ice in the way of treatment of pas
sengers by employes, receive com
plaints from the public In regard to
the service and to guard against dis
honest and objectionable practices In
the service.
He Is supposed to be familiar with
conditions In every car In his territory
and to know exactly how each con
ductor and porter treats the public.
Where he finds a gruff, unaccommo
dating conductor In the service he
suggests a change of manner or rec
ommends suspension and in this way
keeps the service satisfactory to the
traveling public as far as possible.
Mr. Durand tells interesting stories
of travel In Mexico. In that country
are four classes of travel, first, sec
ond, third and Pullman. Third class
is rough cars with board bencbes for
peons and the lowest class of Mexl
fSborers. Second class Is fitted
with backs to the scats and cushions
like American smoking cars. Pull
man service there is the same u
here and the prices are about th
same.
He says the bulk of travel In Mex
ico is in the second and third class
cars, the peons sleeping on thl
bencbes and floor of the third class
cars like rats In a nest.
American travel In Mexico is mak
ing a stronger demand for Pullman
cars and gradually the better class of
Mexicans are patronizing Pullman and
first class cars exclusively.
Mr. Durand has been In the service
of the Pullman company for 25 years,
traveling over every line of road In
the United States.

ANNOYING DELAYS
MAIL TO PORTLAND VIA
WALLA WALLA" IS A FARCE.
Tlte Rule That Such Mall Should Be
Sent North "When No. 5 Is Report
ed More Than Two Hours Late,"
Docs Not Seem to lie Observed
With Any Consistence Local Post
orricc Has Complained to the Rail
road Aiitliorlties and tlie Matter
May lie Taken to Uie Department.
The system started here a few
weeks ago of sending westbound mall
to Portland via Walla Walla when
No. 5 Is over two hours late, has
turned out to be a farce, because of
Indifference, or something else, on the
part of the railroad people.
Under the rule recently made ny
the postal department at the sugges
tion of the local office, all westbound
mall posted at the office up to 5 p.
m. each day Is sent to Walla Walla
on the evening train, and from there j
sent to Portland on the Spokane Fly-1
er, thus getting Into Portland early
next morning. However, this was to
be done only when No. S was report
ed more than two hours late at 5
o'clock.
Since the above ruie went Into ef
fect the postnf fice people here say
that mail has been sent via Walla
Walla only two or three times. This
Is because of the fact that early In
the evening No. 5. is almost always
reported to be but slightly behind
time, thus preventing them from
sending the mall on any other train.
However, during the night it has been
the regular thing for weeks for No.
5's time to be gradually placed back
during the night, and for It to pass
through here anywhere from 3 o'clock
a. m. to 7 or 8 the next morning.
Consequently, the mall that is held for
tho delayed train does not reach
Portland until late In the afternoon
and sometimes not until near even
ing. As a result, great Inconvenience
Iff caused, as such delay practically
means that an extra day 1 required
to commvtin!catc with Portland. '
This (nothing Deputy Postmaster
ffehch made complaint to the rail
way people here regarding the mat
ter, and it is said they will try to get
better reports on the train hereafter.
However, they hold that the fault is
with the dispatcher at La Grande, as
all reports are sent out from there.
Last evening the first report on
No. 5 placed It but half an hour be
hind the schedule, and accordingly
the mall was held for It. However,
the train did not pass here until about
6 o'clock this morning.
Since the first reports regarding
the train are based on Its time at
Huntington, It seems strange there
should be such a loss of time after
the first report is given. If the re
port last evening was correct, the
train lust nver sixe hours between
Huntington and this place, which Is
said to be Impossible.
Unless more accurate reports ate
received on the train hereafter. It Is
the Intention ol the postal officials
here to take, the matter up with peo
ple higher up and endeavor to secure
such service ns will enable them to
send out mall without Ruch delays.

FIRST PRACTICE GAME
WAS PLAYED SATURDAY.
Serious Practice Will Begin In a Sliort
lime, and Selection of Men for tlie
Hrxt Team D. P. Smythe Is Again
Coach, Being Chosen for the Third
Year Dean Goodman Is Manager
Every Indication Tiiat tlte Pen
dlcton II lull Sdiool Will Have n
Splendid Tram.
Yesterday afternoon the first prac
tice for this year was had by the
high school football boys, and quite
a number turned out to kick the pig
skin. Within a short time it Is said
that practice will be on an earnest,
and that the work of selecting play
ers for the first team will commence.
At a meeting held last evening D.
P. Smythe was formally elected coach
for another season, and the team will
again be under his guidance. During
the past two years Mr. Smythe has
been able to Inspire the players with
enthusiasm and getting good work out
of them.
As manager of the eleven for this
season, Dean Goodman has been
chosen, and will have charge of the
financial end of the team, and also
will arrange the schedulo to be play,
ed.
After much hesitancy George
Strand, who played with the team for
two seusons past, deolded last night
to go to Whitman academy this year,
and this morning left for Walla
Walla to enter the school. However,
while he will be missed from the
Inenl team. It is not thought his ab
sence will materially affeot the suc
cess of the team, as there are several
other prospective quarterbacks who
will be tried out for his old position.
Whether or not Scott will return to
the high school this year Is not yet
known.
