Mr. Burleson indicated that jl would be his policy too, not to disturb capable and efficient postal employes protected by the civil service He is said to recognize that the postoffice department is a great business institution and he proposes to do nothing that might lower the effi ciency. s v Augusta Wants Interurban. There is a strong sentim-ent in the lower portion of South Carolina to induce the Interurban officials to extend the road, South from Green wood to Augusta. This would tap 6ome of the richest territory in th-3 State and would traverse a section of almost unlimited possibilities. As to Augrusta. The following from the Augusta Chronicle under, date of March 3 ? will be of extraordinary interest in this connection: 'If Augusta wants another railroad she can get it?ut it isn't . coming to Augusta on its own ac' cord.. "This isn't a railroad on the ; ground, a large part of it now already in operation and plans made and other plans under advisement for its extension. Where the work v has been completed and the line put in operation the development has worked a wonderful commercial change. As an example, before the t new road was Tfpened a freight shipment from New York to Anderson, S. C., would arrive at its destination ?if not tied up or delayed en route ?in about two weeks. If the shipment was "fast freight" with a "tracer" behind it, people in Ander son say the arrival at the destination has been accomplished in 10 days. Now freight shipments are delivered from New York into warehouses in Anderson in 48 hours. Road Runs From Charlotte.
