selves that Notwithstanding all that has
been said to the contrary, the Republican
mas always paid its postage regularly,
punctually, and honorably as every eIl-
ployee of the Post Office will testify If he
speaks ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
The GAZETTE never said you did not.
But in the article we commented upon
you had said you always prepaid"
which has very different meaning.
We can now assure you and all other
publishers that we have received from
the postmaster pledge that all papers
taken into the office shall be sent in the
mails. What we complained of was that
our papers were taken in and not sent,
because, as was said, the postage was not
prepaid" But the real cause was DO
litical malice or want of the knowledge
of official duty. For we have now ascer-
tanned that as soon as the fact came to
the knowledge of the postmaster he Or
dered the delinquent in duty to send the
papers. This injury was done to us and
might have been done to the Republican
or any 'Aher paper under like circum-
stances.
This occurred in this way: The weekly
GAZETTE mail is large, and for the past
several years, when it had been sent to
the post-ofice on Thursday evening, the
money had been refused and the boy
told to bring the money in the morning /;
the mailing clerk saying he had not time
to receive and receipt for it; sometimes
the clerk was at supper; and some 9TH
er reasons were assigned for not receiv-
ing the money. Nothing was thought of
this, for the papers were sent and the
money paid the next day or on Saturday.
II was, however, tax upon us and an
additional trouble to us. Recently we
learned for the first time that our papers
were withheld on one occasion because
the money was not paid on Friday morn
ing; and threats being made to do so
again caused lis to make the matter pub
lie. The postmaster told us distinctly
that all excuses for not taking the money
were wrong and he would have the mat
ter righted; that he had no right, if he
took the papers in, to refuse to send
them, and hereafter they should ALWAYS
be sent. This was the way we regarded
the law. Our remark to the postmaster
was that it would abe business-like te
send the boy and the papers back if the
money did not accompany the papers
but it was not right to take the paper.
into the Office and then not send them,
after his own clerks had caused the mon
ey to be withheld. And he agreed will
US and said he "had the power to correc
the matter and would do:so." The diff
Guilty resolves itself down to this, that
recently introduced clerk assumed to d
what the postmaster says he did not an
would not do. We attributed malice to
ward us because we had not heard G
other papers being excluded, and W
knew they had been sent to the offic
without prepayment. The postmaste
said he regarded us as fully responsible
and he held no malice; but he though
we had misrepresented him by insinua
ting that he was an admirer of Blain
and Conkling; that he had been in fave
of Bristow. And yet it might be that tt
postmaster was an admirer of Blair
and Conkling, although not approving
their late course politically.

The Senate was In session only two
hours to-day. Senator Thurman moved
to take the credentials of Mr.. Eustis out
of the hands OF the committee where
they had been for twenty-one months
and vote on them. He did not see what
further time was necessary ,or how a seat
could be refused Mr.. gEustis when his

THE FIGHT TO COMMENCE NEXT
WEEK The washington correspondent
of the. New York ,Heral says: - "The
New York Custom House appointments
win be sent In early next week. The
nomination to the Naval Office is not yet
settled. Those who believe that there
has been hesitation or timidity on the
part of the President about making these
changes are mistaken He has been slow
because he was determined to make
thorough work, and found it diflcult to
get the right kind of men to serve, but
ever since the report Of the Jay Commits
sion was made change has been fixed
fact. The President intends to eradicate
politics from the New York Custom
House." ....
1t will then be seen whether the Sem
ate will stand by Mr.. Hayes or by Mr..
Conkling.
The daily gazette., 1877-10-20

Mr.. Hayes begins to feel panied at the
neglect of the Senate to take action on
his appointments. And really it looks as
though the Republicans in the Senate
were consolidated against the President,
as in the case of Andrew johnson. The
Radical Senators claim the right to dis
pose Of the patronage in their states, and
the Presidents Civil Service policy
smashes this arrangement. Aad the Re-
publican Senators must all stick if they
hope to bring down the President.

The seven-to-eight view of the south

THE civil service reform association of
New York held Its first public meeting on
Thursday evening. The Rev, DR.. Bellows
Professor Dwight. r. d. Hitchcock and Os,
wall Ottendorf spoke. They argued thai
civil service was for the benefit of the coun-
try, not the clerks; that the spoils system
is destructive to the uses and existence of
parties, and that reforms, If made noble
and firm enough, will carry the country.
