monday visiting relatives bangham carpenter returned sunday from leeds where he had been on miss drucilla ost george is visiting with berncich bern cico mrs clira larcon reuban larson left for where he intends working hurricane HURRICANE aar apr 6 mentioning again the mail problem of washington county we wish to say that we are surprised at the attitude taken by the enterprise correspondent in the last issue of the paper as we have no intentions of injuring the interests of any town in the county by petitioning the government for better mail service the dark picture as they term it which we arev drev of our si stem is all true and was not colored in the least nor were any of the statements untrue or misleading to hive our mill come tia cedar would not interfere with the mail of enterprise as they would likely continue petting theirs from and would be connected st george at least by pony we still maintain most logical route for the mail of dixie is from lund and we are convinced that in time it will come that flay we were anxious to have the state build a highway from logan to st george so that we would have better means of getting out of the county now the highway is nearly completed why not use it these are our views by having all didies m ul come from lund we could make tho following schedule during dry weather which is by far the greater part the bear leave lund upon arrival of the morning tram arne at cedar at 1 50 p m and leave foi st georga at 2 and arrive at st george at 8 p m instead of the next morning as now is the cabe ahe outgoing mail would leave st george at 6 0 clock in the morning and arrive at lund in time to take the evening tram going north of course during bad weather such good time could not be made but the auto could travel from st george to bellevue almost all the time and on an average better time could alx lx made from dixie to lund than from modena and the ride would be much easier and surer in the winter months distance is often measured by hours instead of miles which is proper in this case and by counting the hours it takes to get to alie railroad we find ourselves nearer Lundt lian modena last week the writer was in st george and met a traveling man who wished to go out via cedar carowan parowan and beaver what should he do he must cither hire a private corn byance or take tn 0 davs and two nights and have that pleasant wearisome ride from st george loI odena and pay ab 00 then pay that 2 00 for fare to lund and 3 00 for the auto nde from there to cedar he aboe the latter and I 1 have not heard whether he was able to stand thetna or not that is the condition m my of us have to meet and will have to meet until the mail route is changed we have tolerated it for eight years there are no largo towns out debt and the traffic and travel of our county naturally is out by way of bellevue in conclusion we wish to say that we are willing to leave the matter to the judgement jud gement of uncle sam the
