IMPORTANT RKFoRMs.-Four questions have
been before Congress so far this session. which if
properly disposed of, will result in important re-
forms-the Franking question, the Mileage ques-

hereafter to give the transportation of the malls to
parties who will furnish the postmasers to attend
to them also. That is to say, upon such routes as
can be thus as easily supplied with postmasters
as at present This latter project will socn be-
come popular one; insomuch as its result will
be (when carried out) to dissolve the Post Office
Departments connection with politics. con-
summation desired by all honest and unseIfish
men. Parties (politcaI have not yet settled down

where the Democracy will eventually be found
on them. Twenty years ago the instincts of thai
party would have left no such question to be
solved But, now, there is really no telling where
1t tthe Democracy is likely to be in the matter
We hope that its leaders will not lose the golden
chance of making legitimate party capital with
the people in these issues at hand, that must not
long hence be one and all determined.
