Show : ' ' - " ' ' . I Postoffice Remains Practically Second-Class Office . .Dr. F. E. ttraup, president of the Town Board of Bingham, Bing-ham, called a meeting of the business men of Bingham to I attend on Tuesday last, at the Society Hall, to consider the Governmnet's ruling of the Bingham Postolfice. Congressman Con-gressman E. O. Leatherwood, who has recently returned j from Washington, was present. Also Inspector Button of i Denver. Mr. Dutton explained the situation lucidly to j about 100 mining and business men who were present. j Mr. Button says "The Postal Department wants to give j every village, town and city in the U. S. A. every service possible and there is no desire with that department to eliminate anything for the public good, but owing to the inability of the Bingham postoffice to sell the necessary amount of stamps and other revenue caused the Bingham, postoffice to revert to third class." The present ruling of the postoffice officials are that ALL CARRIERS on every route are to remain pcrma- j nently, with two clerks on the inside to assist the Post-"master Post-"master and, if necessary, another can be used. Which once more places the Bingham postoffice on its old basis with practically better service than heretofore. . |
