A LITTLE SERVICE, PLEASE
It i» pecuiir, to say th* least, that just when the railroad com
pany is talking about abandoning this branch line it causes th
mail truck to be delayed almost every trip. For two weeks th«
truck that brings mall every Tuesday, Thursday and Satur-iM
.morning has been Iste by two hours and the excuse given is the>
t must wait for a freight t- ain on the main line.
It is also significant that the train on the alternate morning.;
has been religiously on time for the same period. It is plausible
that the railroad company is trying to bring discredit on the inn k
ing of mail and call attention to the dependability of train mai
service. When there is a train crew to pay the freight tram ism
time or the branch train leaves without it. Trsin or truck, the
company having the mail contract is responsible for timely de
livery of mail and damys will not be accepted without protest.
