Close Chamokane Postoffice.
DAVENPORT, Wash. Sept. 16.— Chamokane postoffice, on the Spokane river 12 miles north of Reardan, will be closed today, due to the resignation of J. G. Dauber, who sold his store to C. B. Weed. Mr. Weed has made application to be appointed postmaster. Conditions tacked to the granting of a postoffice at River Homes, on the Spokane river north of Davenport, make it doubtful if the office will be established, The department at Washington agreed to grant the postoffice provided a postmaster could be found who would make the 10-mile trip to Egypt, a receiving point, and care for the office for half the receipts.
