Whether a mall clerk haa a right to
refine o takn a ouch of mall on hie
car when presented by other than
poalofflre employe la a queitlon be
ing aiked around town today a a
toult from a atory told of the al
leged action of a mall clerk on a train
pulling out of Klamath Fall In kick
ing off a bag of mall thrown on hla
car by a hotel man.
According to ihla atory, the hoe-
lelry, finding It Inconvenient to carry
lu mall to the Klamath Pall poat
office In time for tho clewing of the
mall at 4:30 p. m., which la an hour
before the train leavea, got Into tho
habit of putting Ita mall Into a bag
and putting It on the car, leaving It
all for the mall clerk to dlatrlbute,
Inatead of the work being done at the
Klamath Fall pmtofllce.
Aulilant poalmaater John A. Mc
Call aiked Ihla afternoon about the
Incident, aald ho had not heard of It,
and did not believe that It wa found
en on fact. Ho aald that Ibere l a
comparatively new mall clerk on the
run, a young man, whom he doea not
bellovo would act a the atory would
Indicate
There I a dot, or letter drop, on
the mall car, through which penoni
belated with mall uiually put It when
they go to the train. The putting of
prlrato mall bag on a mall car, how
ever, aeemi a comparatively new
wrinkle
It I claimed that the mall put
through the poitofllce haa a much
belter chance of being expedited by
proper handling than that put on a
mall car, aa the car clerk uiually haa
hla hand full, without bothering
with a large amount of loae mall. An
other thing about mall placed In the
poatofflce I that the record of mall
carried accredit tho poitofllce with
Ihla mall, and the credit goea lo the
city aa an Indication of tho bualneu
dono and growth accompllihed, while
mall placed on tho train cula no fig'
uro In tho atallitlca of tho city poat
offlce. aave, poaalbly, In the amount
of atampa aold.

they are unable to rely on dlipoalng
of their product to advantage when
they come to town, with any degree
or ceriainiy. Bometimea they rind a
demand, they aay, far beyond the up

The Idea they have now la to

have to offer and aelllng them what
they need. In auch aneatabllhment
there would naturally be a good deal

Suggestion to Stop Local Scrap
That the Herald's proposition to
have all wrangling over the location
of the prospective new court houie ot
Klamath county forever get Ita
quletua through arbitration which
may aettlt tht question to the satis
faction ot all handa Is a good one, Is
Indicated by the following letter:
"Hall of the Commercial Club,
"April 8, 1911.
"The Evening Herald,
"Klamath Falls, Oregon.
"Gentlemen Your article bearing
on the "get-together plan" in this
evening's paper came to our notice.
Our club concurs with this plan ex
actly, In so far that we support the
Injunction matter aa set forth by Mr.
H. F. Murdoch, one of our active
members. This Injunction restrains
any action for a change ot the county
court from the present site to the Hot
Springs site until the qualified voters
of this county can vote on the ques
tion at a general election.
We are willing that the voters ot
this county exercise thetr franchise
in a matter that properly bslongs to
them, and not for our county court to
decide for the voters.
Therefore, In order that we might
expedite matters la this 'get-together'
sentiment, 1st the county court put
themselves on record, In ao far that
they will drop any court House build;
lag until tha voters have been given
their legal rights. Wa are wllllag
that this be put up at the next general
eleetloa. We are wllllag to accept a
pubMe deelsloB. Aad we are willing
to get together.
"If a court house can be built by
the present arrangement with the
Klamath Development company for n
minimum of 8100,000, we are satis
fled that our club has savsd tor the
voters of this county Just 8100,000,
and by the time our get-together pro
gram Is completed we expect to add
more to the pockets of the taxpayers.
