FOR A $75,000 BUILDING. |
We Hhould Have as Good PostofHce I
as YorkvHie.
J About a year ago CongresB made
an appropriation for poBtofllce build- j
lngs at Yorkvllle and Lancaster to Mis
,th eamount of $50,000 for oach ^'a
place. We note that Mr. Finley has fr*,
; recently Introduced another bill in frle
Congress to Increase the approprla-1 R
tlon made for'Yorkvllle, the new bill day
[ to give that town a building costing
1 $7 5,000. If such a building is need- 8?"
ed in Yorkvllle, certainly Lancaster . ^
should have an equally pretentious
one. j
I The receipts of the postoffice at this j ,
place far exceed those of the YorkvilleVofhce,
and, while the population froi
of the two places are given by the jm
last census, is about the same, this j
'census includes only the people liv- jn (
ing within the actual limits of the two
towns. Yorkville's limits are a mile ..J
in extent and Lancaster's only a half- ' ^
mile. Had we a mile-limit here it jro]
| would include a population of 5,000 two
people, all of whom patronize the p ,
Lancaster postofflce. '?
I Now, we are satisfied that if our vj8|
[people will make it known to Con- ngr
gressman Finley that we are desirious ?
Iof a $75,000 building, he will give wef
it to us. Since we have no chamber p
of commerce, board of trade, nor "" -
other commercial agency through'
which our people may apeak, there- '
fore we sugges tthat a petition be
circulated at once, asking for the ad- ,
dltional appropriation of $25,000 and
that a commltte of public-spirited citIzens
.headed by the mayor, go to ?
> Washington and present the matter ' '
j to our congressman. No time should ^
j be lost In going after this extra ap- ^rnl
propriatlon. ^
