Mail Route Scraps
• Jules Marion, N. C. mail superinten
dent, left for Tanana Tuesday morning.
Marion had a stormy visit at Rampart
this trip. He quarrelled with mail
carriers, postmaster, newspapermen;
and Anally came to blows with the lo
cal manager of his company in the N.
C. store. Some excuse his pugnacious,
whirlwindjrisit as due to a bibulous
tendency apt to lay the best of men hy
the heels.
. The cause of the turmoil, as near as
can be learned, is the controversy over
the holding the mail at Ft. Yukon last
fall for 15 days by Carrier ‘ ‘Kid’ ’ Mar
ion. It is claimed that there were no
ice running in the river at the time and
could have come forward had he the
desire.' The “Kid’s” enemies point to
fact, that there is a big Indian camp
at Ft. Y ukon, and the Chinook run of
of salmon was on. Supt. Marion says,
the “Kid” could not go forward on ac
count pf running ice—that he was act
ing under orders from him. As the
“Kid” is a pocket-edition of his Uncle
Jules, it is possible the end is not yet.
Mail-carrier Harper arrived yester
day afternoon with outside mail. The
Tanana mail in care of Carrier Schaber
v .
is due todays The last two outside
have carried but little newspaper mail.
