WHY GURLEY OPPOSES.
Reasons for Ills AntagonizInE the nm TO In
crease Letter CARRIER Pay.


crease Letter CARRIER Pay.
WASHINGTON, June lin last winters
session Of Congress a proposal was made in
Congress to increase the pay Of letter carriers.
Under the old law the maximum pay was 81 600
a year. while there was no limit to the mini
mum salary to be paid. 1t was shown that there
was no harder worked or moro deserving en-
ployeo in the Government service than tho let
ter carrier The law was changed 80 that the
minimum pay became $500. This increase was
bitterly fought by Cannon tRep. Illl. upon the
ground Of economy. He was supported by Il.
W, Gurley, tho superintendent OF tho general
delivery system. II was 80 unusual TO see the
chief ot a division working against tho In
crease q pay Of men under him. that members
OF tho House Committee on Post Onices and
Post Roads have in vain sought Tor satistac,
tory explanation. Mr.. Cannon's opposition did
not rest when the increase was ordered. He
bitterly fought tho Deficiency Appropriation bill
necessary to the payment OF its increase. This
Deficiency bill succeeded in the House. and
used certain Influences to get the bill dropped
In the Conference Committee between the
House and the Senate; II he had been a paid
and more maliciousy 10 defeat this measure.
Simple desire Tor economy Is no explanation Of
such persistent and endless opposition. At this
session he got possession OF the bill upon the
ground that he knew more about II than any
body else but in spite Of the opposition q both
Cannon and Gurley. the Deficiency bill did pass
the House last week. These two men. under the
plea Of economy. are fighting against the meas
ure in the Senate.
There is good reason for Gurley's opposi-
ton. Appropriations for letter carriers pay is
made In lump sum. Where there Is no limit
put upon the minimum salary paid, the Super
intendent could employ men at as low salary
ms 500 year, leaving q large discretionary
lowed his personal management OF the eNpen-
diture Of huge lump sum is gone. This OK
plains Gurley's position. and Mr.; Cannon can
himself explain how lie came 10 be yoked up
with Gurley.

A Probable Change in Mr.. Posters
Programme.

Immediately after his nomination as Re
publican candidate for Governor OF Ohio,
Mr.. CHARLES FOSTER made flying visit to
this city. Precisely what his object was.
we do not know; but while here he was
loquacious. and seemed eager TO get into the
newspapers. Apparently somewhat fright
ened at having beaten Judge TAFT, who had
been q member OF GRANTS Cabinet and was
the favorite Of the Stalwarts In the Conven-
ton. FOSTER began to hedge by declaring
that he should unfurl the bloody shirt at tho
head of his columns, and fight the battle on
the old war issues. When Mr.. FOSTER an
nounced this programme, the Ohio Demo-
Gratis had not held their Convention, and it
was quite uncertain what candidates they
would put In the field.
During the war. Mr.. FOSTER had the right
TO remain at home along with Mr.. CLEMENT
l.. VALLANDIGHAM and other prominent
citizens of Ohio, and cultivate the arts OF
peace. He was under no legal obligation to
enter the Union army and fight it out on
that line; and 80 he dwelt quietly in Fos-
toria and attended TO his banking business,
far removed from the clash OF arms.
When the war broke out, THOMAS EWING
was Chief Justice OF Kansas. The following
year he left the bench to take command Of a
regiment of Union volunteers. He con
tinucd in the service till the close Of the
conflict, rising to the rank OF Brigadier'
General, and finally becoming Major-Gen'
eral by brevet. The war over, he returned
| to Ohio, his native State, and is now the
| Democratic candidate for Governor.
Gen. EwING's associate for the secont
place on the ticket is AMERIcUs V. RICE
When the Sumter gun startled the continent
| he was studying law. Laying BLACKsToNT
and KENT on the shelf, young RICE enlisted
as a private under the first call for volun
tecrs, and fought CALAMITY in West Nir
| ginia, where he was promoted for good con
| duct to the command OF company. The
term for which his regiment WAS ralscC
having expired, Capt. RICE went immedl
ately 10 work TO get up another, In THU
regiment no soon became Lieutenant
| Colonel, and then Colonel. For mertorioui
behavior on the battlefield, he was subse
quently made a Brigader-General He re
NAMED in the service till the war ended.
On what line OF attack FOSTER will carr!
on his campaign against EWING and RICE
is not yet apparent; but we fancy that TIN
bloody shirt will not wave very dehantly n
the head OF his assauting columns.

MAnpled by a Train.

About o clock this morning some of the
men at the l., G. & L. R.R shops, near the
Southern R. R. trestle above Sixth street,
found on the track of the l., G. & L. Road
the BODY of man who had evidently been
killed by the cars. The victim. who's seemed
to be tramp, was around the yards last
evening and it is thought he tried to board
the outgoing freight train. The marks of
blood showed that he must have been
dragged some distance.
The wheels passed over his neck and
chin, his hand being almost cut from the
body. and the lower part of the head being
crushed to jelly. The dead man was
taken from the track and Strengthened
out The clothing was dark, with striped
calico shirt, straw hat and "stogey"
boots. The Coroner was notified.
