Receipts of Postoffice Larger
Than Ever.
Figures compiled by Post- )
master C. G. Coad at the close
of the calendar year show that j
the commercial activity of the
city and vicinity as measured j
by the amount of money han- j
died by the Dallas postoffice is j
in a healthy condition. During j
the past 12 months the receipts j
have reached a total of $8197,
and while the increase over the
previous year is not abnormally
large the percentage is much j
greater than many other tows of
a similar size. I
On account of the large num-
ber of election documents sent
out by political candidates dur-1
ing a campaign, the present
year is expected to be an un-
usually lively one in postoffice
