Clifford Harding
Gets Mail Contract
Becomes Operator of
Winner Route
Clifford Harding of O’Neill was
awarded the star mail contract
for the route between O’Neill and
Winner, S.D. His contract became
effective July 1.
Mr. Harding’s contract calls for
mail pickup at the railroad sta
tion in O’Neill at 6:30 a.m. every
day including Sundays and holi
days. He “drops” mail at inter
mediate points and returns to O’
Neill the same evening making
additional “pickups” and “drops.”
The return schedule requires
making connections with the east
bound mainline Chicago & North
Western passenger-mail train
which leaves O’Neill at 12:20 a.m.
John Turner of the O'Neill
Transfer previously held the
contract. When the star service
was inaugurated last fall fol
lowing the discontinuance of a
mail train on the Norfolk-to
Winner branch of the North
Western, the initial star con
tract went to Don Martin of
O'Neill. He held the contract
about a month whereupon Tur
ner took over.
Competitive bidding was keen,
postoffice officials said, when the j
contract was put up to bid last j
month.
Harding is employing a large |
tractor-trailer outfit for the haul, f
The O’Neill-Winner route is |
the principal mail supply and dis- |
patch for the Winner and Rose- |
bud territories.
