NEWSPAPERS GO FIBST CLASS FIGHT FOR FIRST CLASS DELIVERY SERVICE WINS OUT As a result of several months of in •estigation affd study by experts of die postoffice department, Postmaster Genera) New has issued the first definite, concise and complete program that has ever been put out by the department for the mailing, transmission and delivery of newspapers. This order is most important. It is far-reaching. It give* the same expedition to newspapers Is is accorded to first-class mail. The order is the result of painstaking effort on' the part of the postoffice inspectors, under the direction of First Assistant Postmaster General Bartlett. Carefully worded and minute instructions have been 'issued to all employes engaged in handling the mails, so that there will be, no possibility of misunderstanding the importance of getting newspapers to the reader with a minimum of daftiy. , The essence of the ordes is that newspapers shall' not be mixed with parcel post at any point in their dispatch from the publisher's office until their delivery to the addresses. Papers shall be handled by themselves and kept in constant transit, not being sent to railway terminals to be reworked. In other words, they are to be handled in the same manner as first-class mail. An important feature of the order is that no publication shall be given any less efficient or less expeditious treatment than at present. That attack caused his sadden snd pec ted death.

If not, come at once and eat- vour ahsrc before it is too lj and Mrs. Will Sattem of Wood k visited with the latter's parents, newspapers will. not suffer one iota from this progressive innovation made by the postoffice department, Another striking feature of the order is the elimination of sacks of mail which are known to the business "world as "mixed mail." Sacks of mixed mail sometimes contain letters, papers and parcei post, and oftentimes the entire contents were treated as parcel post This order will prevent a recurrence of that condition Another important feature of the order is that postmasters are required to notify publishers in each instance when they do not hit the dispatch which they advertise to hit; also to notify publishers when they are sending to wrong addresses and to the addresses "of deceased persons." Publishers will also be notified when they are putting up their mail in an incorrect manner. Under the new system, newspapers will be made up in separate sacks plainly labeled with the word "NEWSPAPERS." If there are only a few copies of newspapers at the point of dispatch, they will be placed in pouches with first-class mail or in separate sacks, even tho the sacks are only partially filled. ^ This order means much to the American public. It is one of the most * important and far-reaching steps in postoffice history. It is for the benefit of those who #detjire to have their newpapers placed before them at as early a moment as possible. This should keep both the city and rural population in closer and quicker touch with their several fields of activities. , < Charles Kelly, for many years t resident of Antiooh, died on aSoo line railroad train while on his way to Chicago one morning last week.
