our understanding of the new postal law as
fixed up by the conference committee Il day or
two before the close of the recent session of
congress, Is, that weekly papers after the first Of
July inst circulate free in the mails within the
counties where published; and that exchanges
between newspapers circulate free all over the
country; and that all other paper post
age viii remain the same rs during the past
year until the lst of January 1915, when the new
regulation of paying newspaper postage in ad
vance by weight will go into effect.
We have applied to postmaster Cameron of
this city, for information on the subject, and
while he concciycs the above statements to be
correct, according to the "PoStal Guide" or some
such publication that pretends to keep posted
on the subject, he says he has had no official in
formation or instructions on the subject, and UNI
til such are received must adhere to the law as
it was. The department NJ Washington having
for tAe last week or two been without RESPONSE
bic official head things are somewhat at loose
ends and behind hand, but something authentic
on the subject doubtless cannot be much longer
delayed.
Under the circumstances our advice to sub.
scrlbers to the FREE TRADER within the county
would be not TO be in hurry to pay postage for
the current quarter, but if demanded by the
Postmastcrs, who may have no discretion in the
matter, to pay under protest

FIRE AT THE Rock ISLAND DEPoT.-About
o'clock on Thursday evening the Passenger
house of the Chicago, Rock Island &P. railroad at
this place was discovered TO be on fire, the fire
originating near the southwest corner of the
building from what cause unknown, but proba-
bly, spark from a passing locomotive. The
building being of wood and ~ dry as powder, OF
course burnt like shavings. The contents of the
office, including tickets, books, &c, rs well as
valuabcs in the safe were all saved; but the bag
gage room being locked and nearer the starting
point Of the Are, was not opened in time and hall
Il dozen trunks, one or two said to have held
very valuable contents, were burned. The loss
Of the building is little regretted by our people
as it was neither crcditablG to the city nor tn,
road. i was undergoing repair at the time aud
not worth over $1,000.

GLIDING populations from twenty church societies

lagos. The President OF the Catholic To-
tai Abstinence Union OF America, Very
Rev. Dean Byrne, OF Trenton, made
most emphatic speech, urging the Catholic
citizens TO arise Immediately and do battle against
the great puplic foe OF American liberty and Of the
Christian religion. Catholics, ne said had better
means OF nghting down this great curse OF the peo
pie than Others for the sacraments OF their Church
were given them and Gods grace would come
through these channels. They owed 1t to the
nonor OF their name and race TO show how
they could crush out the great evil
now striking terror into the heart of every Ameri
can patriot and Christian man. He called upon
them to take the religious abstinence pledge, as
Archbishop Manning had done, ana as the bishops
and priests were doing In this country. The Pope
had written letter the other day to the Union
blessing 1t and granting lndulgencaa. large
crowd rose and then knelt in 'front.' Of the altar
and took the pledge from the Rev. J. De Concilio

MARCHING ON PIrTSBURG.
New Plan To BE Adopted for Crushing
Out the Liquor Traffic.


PIrTsBURG, Pa, Feb. &C. 1874
Upwards OF 800 ladies, comprising among the
number many OF the wives OF merchant
princes, met this afternoon to effect a perfect
organization Tor the purpose OF waging war on the
liquor dealers. The proceedings were opened by
the Rev. McDermitt reading from the scriptures,
followed by prayer, alter which the reverend
gentleman addressed the meeting, saying that
for thirty years he had heard nothing bns
moral suasion cried to induce men to give
up this traffic, but now when the ladies'
have arisen to use the power OF moral
suasion men stand agnast and say women will bo
subjected to insult and also say II they go into tho
sewers OF lniqulty they must sufrer the ConSe-
quences; but that must not be so.
BrunOt, wife Of Peace Commissioner Brunot, St. t.
ing that at regular meeting Of the Women's
ana Allegheny, held this morning. reports were re.
ccived wherein the evils Of intemperance were
wildly portrayed and the following resolution was
adopted:-
That express our heartfelt sympathies with tho
% esgss y qna we Pedsi our for suc
Lalgc numbers accommodations Of encourage.
ment and sympathy for those enlisted in the cause
were also read. and the following plan of organiza.
ton was suggested by an old lady, who evidently
had experienced sorrow from the waywardness oil
husband or son. The plan seemed TO meet the
unanimous approval OF all the ladies' present. This
plan suggested the Immediate election OF officers,
including an executive committee Of City and q
VISITING committee OF tue same NUMBER. Inc army
OF workers to be divided into companies OF one
hundred or less, each to have leader, and num-
bered Company A, Company B, &c. Company was
to devote the first hour to singing and prayer al
while Company proceeded to another saloon. In
case any or the company were arrested they were
to proceed to the Mayors office, where bail would
be forthcoming. They would then resume opera
lions. They want neither towards nor silnid per-
sons. This is Gods work, and the same power Ia
here tnat has so successfully guided the forces on
to victory in Ohio.

real WORK Is to oegin.
