Good Roads and Rural Mails.
It is announce that the government
will look more carefully to the enforce

which rural free delivery is established.
I he present requirement is: "Roads
traversed shall be kept in good condition
and unobstructed by gates; there must
be no unbridged creeks cr streams not
fordable at any seaaon of the year." In
many cases the residents along proposed
routes have made improvements that en
able them to obtain rural delivery ser
vice, but sometimes the efforts to keep

ment Lasdedded that unless the roads
traveled by the carriers are properly
maintained the service will be with
drawn. The Postollice Department now

Opposed to Calling; Them Passes.
One of the important measures taken
in tl.e late editorial convention was a
protest against the editorial tickets,
which have to be paid f.,r in advertising,
being classed as passes. The editors are
keenly alive to the abuse of the pass sys
tem aud are heartily in sympathy with
the movement against the custom of is
suing passes indiscriminately j but do not
consider that the tickets which they re
ceive from the railroad companies, and
which they have to pay for by running
the railroad company's advertisemenU
at the regular rate., to the full amount
they would have to pay in cash, are in
any sense passes. The following resolu
tions unanimously passed by the associa
tion at its recent meeting seta forth the
sentiment of the editors of tha state:
"Resolved, by the Oregon State Pre.
Association, that we recognize as iu.t
