Southern Pacific Company The Mail Situation In answer to telegrams sent to Portland by the postmaster for authority to handle the mail by way of Tillamook-Willamina, on account of the tie-up on the railroad, a message waa received Thuraday from Portland wanting to know what the cost of service would be. A reply to thio meaaage waa im mediately wired to Portland. In a situation like the present, had the postmaster of Tillamook City been given the discretionary power to expedite the mail service when it io held up,there would have been but little delay, as arrange ments could have been made and the mail service resumed laat Mon day, whereas the best pert of a week has elapsed with a large amount of mail matter held up at both ends. A few years ago, when it waa impossible to get the mail across the mountains owing to the heavy enow that year, th« Portland mail, day after day, waa routed that way, but what brought immediate relief was a message eent to postal officials in Waabinlon to have the ■tail routed by way of Sheridan, fox at that time there wee a etar route between thia city and that place. Friday morning the wires on the Western Union were "dead?’ con- ' eequehtlv no reply could be recetv. ' ed from the poatmaatdf'a feply as to the root of carrying the mail to Willamina. Anyway it will be sev eral days before there ia any mail. ' unless something has been dona to route it to Willamina and bring it to Tillamook by wagon. West Coast Electric Supply Co.
