Presents For Havana Soldiers.
The war department has ordered that
the existing tariff and regulations gov
erning importations into Cuba, Porto
Rico and the Philippine Islands be mod
ified so as to allow the free entry of
packages and articles intended as
Christmas presents for the officers and
enlisted men’of the United States army
and navy now serving in Cuba, Porto
Rico, and the Philippine Islands, and
for employees of this Government in
these islands. Rates on shipments for
the soldiers in Havana will be named
by Mr. H. A. Terrell, agent of the
Southern Express Co., and if the peo
ple of this section who have relatives
in the army want to send their Christ
mas presents they will be promptly
sent.
The Post-Office Fight.
The removal of the Gainesville post-
office from the Arlington block to the
Hudson house is still being discussed
bv the people. An order has been is
sued from the post-office department
temporarily stopping the removal pend
ing a full investigation of the mattei.
Postmaster Farrow is still determined
to move the office, while those who are
opposing its removal are as fully de
termined to keep it where it now is.
Those who are opposed to its re
moval have appealed to Congressman
Tate and have asked him to use his in
fluence in their behalf. Postmaster
Farrow is not discouraged by this,
however, as he says a majority of the
patrons of the office favor the removal
to the Hudson house, and that he is go
ing to move it.
The fight grows more interesting as
it progresses and what the result of it
will be no one can foretell.
