We noticed an article in this morthe ning's S. L. Herald referring to Cache County mails. The information conveyed to Col. Wickizer, that the mails had been delayed by U. N. It. It. seven days, is totally incorrect. The fact is that the officers of the road never received any official notice that the mails were to be conveyed by this route, and were not forwarded via the narrow guage except for three days. Supt. Thatcher will guarantee that the mails shall be promptly forwarded if regularly sent by the Utah Northern, and shall reach their destination sooner than if forwarded by the old C. P. route. The U. N. trains arrive and depart regularly, and the blockade only hinders the traffic about three hours. Sleighs are in readiness at the foot of the ridge near Hampton's station,and Logan is reached by 5.30 a. m. every day. Willard and Brigham mails should be forwarded by Utah Northern, which are on the direct line of this road, and there is no danger of blockade in their locality. The people of these two cities hayc been troubled about irregular mails as much as the Cache Valley folks, and now with a railroad running right through their corporate limits, naturally look for better things. We hope Col. Wickizer will see that this matter is arranged satisfactorily without delay, and next time make investigations himself, instead of depending upon reports aud Splendid Enterprise.

Teams drive up to the south side of the main building and deposit their loadi of grain, through a spout, into a hopper attached to a large pair of Fairbnnk's scales. After being weighed, it is lifted by an elevator, at the rate of 250 bushels per hour, into tho fifth story, where it posses through a separator, and thence down into the granary, which is erected on the west end of the building and will hold "20,000 bushels. A patent conveyor conducts the wheat from this granary to the main elevator, which takes it back to the separator on the upper floor. It then goes into the "zigzag" and and thence into the suiutter.
