Show THE question as to whether or not the advertised adver-tised change in the mail routes for Iron and Washington counties will be made depends upon the reasonableness of the bids submitted. It therefore behooves those anxious for tho change to see to it that reasonable bids are submitted for the proposed service. Not that anyone should submit a bid that will cause them to lose money on the contract if awarded them, but there is no use of soaring too high with the idea of getting rich all at once, as such a course would thwart the object, and throw the matter back to where it now stands, with possibly a jerk-water line between be-tween Iron and Washington counties, which would be unable to handle parcel post business or the principal northern mail for the settlements of Eastern Washington county, which are interested most in the proposed change.
