Ask the pe Save Your Elect Save Your Feet! 111 W. Cent OUR RURAL MAIL CARRIERS ANAHEIM HAS A BUNCH OF FIVE GOOD BOYS Frank Eastman Knows Just When They Are to Get a Raise, but Wont Tell—F. R. Legourge is of Aldermanic Proportions, and T. H. Hollingworth Never Says a Word Anaheim’s five rural mail carriers are as happy a bunch of artists as ever congregated in a postoffice, and a more efficient lot of mail carriers it would be hard to find, search the country as one may. Their work is growing daily, and the pieces of mail handled by them monthly goes into the hundreds of thousands, wet they perform their labors uncomplainingly, and never say a word about a raise in salary. One of the carriers, who is suspected of being F. R. Legourge, has written to the R. F. D. News, Washington, D. C., the official paper of the carriers, the following readable account of the carriers handling mail in this section: Have not read anything from Orange county so here goes for a word about the Anaheim carriers. We are five in number and are organized in our county. We have our meetings at the carriers’ homes taking turnabout. The good ladies always have a good supper prepared, which feed is high there, hay at $8 per pound and corn and oats 50 cents per person. That certainly is easy! Just tell you what we have to pay is $23 per ton, rolled barley per sack of 80 pounds, and coiled 85 per bushel. Now, these are the actual cost of feed her last month’s feed bill was $30. I really think we could use a good advantage. We have very good roads, terrible mud, no hills, and no ground. Taking everything into consideration, we are well pleased with the work, and if the salary large enough, so we could lay a little each month, we would be satisfied. Now for a few whys. Why are we carriers not able to place our troubles before our gressman, so they may have correct understanding of the cone as they exist? What is a way to do when his wagon and horse worn out? There is but one that I can see, and that is just down and out and let some other low step in and try his luck. He have money and can replace him fit when worn out. It seems strange that a governor as great and rich as ours would intelligent men to serve her News, Washington, D.

We are five in number and are organized in our county. We have our meetings at the carriers' homes taking turnabout. The good ladies always have a good supper prepared, which is certainly appreciated. I just want to mention that the mail for route No. 1 is delivered by F. Eastman. You ought to know Frank. He knows just when we are going to get our raise but wouldn't tell for less than 15 cents, and I don't happen to have the price. No. 2 is served by F. R. Legourge, a sort of an aldermanic-looking gent, but short the aldermanic pay. No. 3 is C. L. Green, who hands out Spanish in great chunks. His patrons being mostly of that race of people. T. H. Hollingworth serves on No. 4 and is known among the carriers as "the man of few words," or, rather, the man that talks a great deal and doesn't say much of anything. G. M. Bogue carriers mail on No. 5. George never talks much but thinks a great deal. Well, you know that a 12-mile route, with pay in proportion, would keep anyone thinking how he was going to spend his money. Now, about our postmaster and his helpers, four in number. They are all very obliging. A Nebraska carrier writes that SHOES SHOES SHOES REFULLY! This Sale will continue Now is the Time to B hand.

Center St. - Anaheim, Cali FAIRBANKS AT COURT OF ST. JAMES Ex-Vice President Fairbanks may succeed Ambassador Reid at the British court, so runs a report from Washington. It will require a man with a purse equal to that of Fairbanks to keep the pace set by Mr. Reid, the wealthiest and most prodigal of all American ambassadors. There are very few candidates for ambassadorial positions—at least few in comparison with the number that were in the habit of applying fifteen or twenty years ago. The reason given is that the rich men who formerly applied for and secured these positions have been hard hit by the panic and that the cost of living abroad in ambassadorial style has greatly increased. Mr. Fairbanks is well equipped in manners, means, and mien for the place so long held by Mr. Reid. He has not had ambassadorial experience in Paris as Mr. Reid has and does not speak French but he speaks the most widely used of all languages and his long experience in Washington as Senator and vice president, and his social career in which Mrs. Fairbanks has borne a brilliant part, will peculiarly fit him to dispense money and courtesies at the Court of Saint James.
