and do not hcIivc it to have so gone. If
i, has il has been in dirrct violation OF
oar orders ~ the office, or else it has
, been taken out of the sack, after being
, aooar, ot the steamer After careful in
qnry, we do MT believe either OF these
things 70 have taken place,
One week, the mail was put up differ
.nly, and less securely by one in our
abo,ncc who had not made up the nail
! previously for several months One
package came undonc. as we asccriained
directly after ut the Seattle office, where
we made inquiry; rs soon a. We found
how that number was mailed We
secured it there.
Then We were again informed by the
clerk OF the office that every other pack
age excepting those we had tied up our
selves, some three or four in all, had NIL
come in such shape that they could be
forwarded to their destination.
Hr also admitted again that the Seat
tie mail had nercr failed to reach the
Office 50 that he cond distribute it.
We personally know it Rccer has Filled
to reach the Office in good condition
since that date. 1t was then, after going
to that Office some two or three times a
month TOR several months to see why the
STAR mail WAS not distributed more
promp ly, this clerk admitted that he
frequently had left it undistrbucd for
some time after It's arrival and by way of
excuse again complained Of the way it
was folded, We required him to snow
the way he preferred to have it folded
since which date the Seattle mail ha,
been folded IN accordance with his de
slres, and SO securely done up and ticd
with heavy cord rs tomake it impossible
to undo it, except it WAS done purposely,
and with one exception has always reach
ed the office on time, that exception was
the fault of the steamer; yet 1t is II fact
TeU kR00A 10 our Seattle subscribers
that Tor the past three or four months
the STAR would scarcely never be dis
tributed until several days after its ar
rival there, and d stributed 80 irrcgularIy
that some of our subscribers would get
their papers two or three days or more
later than Others and that the first tim,
1t had been promptly, distributed for
very long time was the Monday after our
next to Inst publication.
From the admissions of that clerk
alone it can he proved that the distrlbu-
tion OF the STAR mail has been so fire.
quently delayed after its arrival In go9d
condition and our subscribers have been
SO !rregularly served, that even the
grossest negligence will not account for
it. In fact nothing else will account for
hut the fact, that this clerk knew 1t was
pleasing to his realmaster, Daniel Bagley
to delay its distribution as long as pos
sblc, and make the mail service valuless
to our patrons.
But relying upon Mr.. P.'s word that
he will hereafter personally attend to the
matter; and requesting all, officers of the
Office as well as subscribers to aid us BY
every means in their power to make the
service prompt and efficient, we close
this article, hoping that the like may not
occur hereafter.

The Observance OF Christmas.

The Christmas that has just passed away
will be in several respects memorable IN the
annals of the city. First of all, so far as
the weather is concerned, it was curious
exception to the long line ofits predecessors
in these northern latitudes, coming to us
clothed in the beauty and balminess OF
spring or the glories Of early autumn, IN
stead of the snow mantle and the wintry
gusts it has worn from immemorial time.
Fashions are constantly changing and the
garb OF old Father Christmas this year is
perhaps the result Of some celestial conven-
ton, which has resolved to upset things
generally. If So, the first experiment Is
decided success. Half dozen more Christ
masses like yesterday and our whole Christ
mas literature will have to be remod-
elled Twice ten thousand poems and stories,
millions OF pictures and toys will have
to be sent to the ice fields of Labrador, or
we shall have to make the tour Of the
Arctic lands and seas to understand them.
The songs OF the poets, the novelettes,
the rich treasures which the publishers
prepared weeks ago for the traditional
Christmas, were strange reading in the sun
shine Of yesterday But the day, II it was
an innovation, was nevertheless beautiful
and welcome. It will be memorable in an
other respect, because of the social restraints
that were imposed, owing to the law, or
rather no law, on the excise question.
Never perhaps, in the history Of the city
was the day celebrated in this respect un-
der greater difficulties, and it will be un-
doubtedly many years until a similar con-
dition of things again exists. But in every
other way the Christmas of 1877 was a
model one The churches Of the Episcopal

Governor Robinson and the Excise
Board.

Board.
The Excise law Of 1870 (chapter 175) pro-
vides that commissioners of excise in cities
shall be removed for any neglect OF malfea-
sance in Office in the same manner as pro-
vided by law for the removal of sheriffs. I"
The removal of sheriff is governed by the
constitutional provision (article 10, section
1), and is made by the Governor after
''giving to such officer a copy of the
charges made against him and an oppor-
tunity of being heard in his defence" The
case of Commissioner Murphy is SO fragrant
one that Governor Robinson will no
doubt Immediately initiate tho proceedings
necessary for his removal and consgmmate
them as speedily as possible. But this will
not complete. his duty. The remaining
Commissioners have clearly been guilty of
.sncglect III Office" if not tofmalfcasance, Of in
afiording a single member Of their Board the
facility for taking possession of the public
moneys as we'll as the moneys deposited
with them in their official capacity
By applicants for licenses. There is
no such Office as treasurer of the Excise
Board. Such position was filled by Muir
ply, but was created by the Commissioners
themselves. Murphy was permitted to re-
tain in his possession Tor thirty days the
money received for licenses actually issued,
as well as the moneys of applicants for
licenses not yet granted, and if any of the
former was in his keeping at the time of his
disappearance the city should be tho loser
rather than private individuals. Murphy IS
associates are, therefore, as we have said,
guilty of gross neglect in Office in having
allowed one of their number to retain in
his possession without security the public
moneys. Moreover, their action has been
in direct violation of the law, which says,
"moneys arising from licenses in cities shall
be paid into the treasury of such cities
respectively" (chlp. 175, Laws Of 1870. 1t
is therefore to be hoped that the Governor
will act promptly, and institute proceedings
for the removal of the entire Board.
SO far as the individual sufferers by the
excise defalcation are concerned they have
clearly their remedy against all the Com
missioners. The money was paid by them
not to Murphy, but to tho Excise Board, and
was receipted for officially by the Board.
