cessor will have to 60 on in the same
way. We hope he is mistaken. Here
before US are the plain figures showing
an addition Of over $2,00e, 600 to one
branch of the government service with
out any explanation or apparent cause.
Thus. out of the $1,000, 600 appro.
priated by Congress for star routes,
the 90 routes in this table are allowed
to take 81, 800, a14, leaving for the o.
1872 routes remaining $S, 978, 1856. The
existence of an abuse like this is very
serious reflection on the democratic
party as a party of opposition. We
can understand, perha 8, how the star
route jobbers hoodwinked poor old
Father Key when he was Postmaster
General, but if an opposition party has
any function, whatever it Is the main
tenaRce of an attitude of criticism up-
on the acts of the government so mi
mute and so severe that the existence
of o system of fraud, like what ap-
pears to have Aourished in. Post Office
departments, would be impossible.
1t may be one explanation that the
democrats were lulled by The blandish-
ments OF the star route contractors.
The whole business as it now stands,
and in the absence of patiently await
ed explanations from the gentlemen
accused, is a serious and damaging
blow to the administration of Mr.. Hayes.
If Mr.. James can put an end to the
abuses he will add to his already many
high claims to the consideration Of his
countrymeD.

JUDGE BRADFORD and District At
torney Patterson must be heartily tired
Of the election cases that have taken
their time, and, we might say, ex-
hausted their patience. In the trial Of
six cases four have been acquitted and
in two cases the juries did not agree
and were discharged. The whole af-
fair begins to take the feature of a
farce. AS the witness on the part of
the defense get no pay and the govern
ment witnesses are paid, the affair be-
gins to show badly and illustrate how
terrible must be Capitalization in
European governments where perse-
cutions are enforced on q wider scale.

M. CHoTTEAU's MIssIoN.-M. Leon
ChotteaH,the French advocate of free trad
arrived al N. Y. Thursday from Paris.
he states that as . result Of his repre-
sensations with respect to the resou, ces
OF this country and its productions, a
company has been formed in France
with capital of 2O,OOO,OOO francs, the
object Of which is to import our live stock
direct to France, instead of--as has beer
the case hithertO--by way of England
An agent of this company has been en-
gagged tor some time in the West maxine
purchases of horses and beef cattle. and
as q result of his purchases the first ship
ment will be made in the course of n
month. M. Chotteau announces his pur-
pose to visit Charleston, New Orleans
and Texas at an earlyday; and should his
observations In Texas warrant il, 4 large
tract Of land will be purchased there,up.
on which the company can raise Its OWL
stock-hogs, sheep and cattle. M
Chotteau says he is not an authorized
agent of the company, but that is largely
interested in 1t, and his present trip II
in its interest.

THE FATAL USE of fire arms by
drunken men and the murderous
assaults by saloon keepers during the
past week or two is doing a great
work for the total abstinent people.
But moderate drinking seems to have
increased in all the great cities. Amy
one who goes into a fashionable resort
for dinner must notice this fact. The
calls by women for mixed liquors and
beer is especially a new feature Of this
''age of progress"

For the last thirty years the Re
p''dIted" has been making every Of.
fort in its power to break the faith OF
our people and discredit the GAZETTE
and to destroy its influence as a local
organ. 1t has stopped at nothing to
accomplish this object. In 1881 it
urged the drunken mobiles to break
down our doors to aud 10 destroy the
types and presses, because we defend
ed Hon. James A. Bayard and his
friends, and appealed to the people in
behalf of the Union and of peace.
But thanks to the late Judge Gilpin
and the then Mayor of the city, Viii.
mington was saved this disgrace, and
the GAZETTE went on prosperinp
more rapidly than ever. We have
never paused to reply to tho many
false and malicious statements of the
Republican. II that paper will pay
its own debts and attend to its own
business Ii might have enough to do
and reserve much of its space for
articles that were more truthful and
less vehomous.
The GAZETTE never defended Gen,
Malone as a Confederate. Indeed
We hardly remember hearing of him
as a rebel General. But since he has
gone over to the Republican side OF
the Senate and pawned his vote to
secure Offices for other Virginia rene
gades the Republican lauds him as a
bright and shining light notwith.

Garfield and repudiate two7thirds Of

AN ExAMPLE.-As an example of
the Star Route rascalities one case is
given BY correspondent in which
contractor got mail route as the low
est bidder on bid Of $4,000, and had
the sum raised in the course of a few
months by assignments of additional
service to seventy Thousand dollars.
1t is all an illustration of what farce
the so called contract system is when
the persons in official position, charged
with the duty Of letting the contracts,
are in collision with outside sharpers
whose game ia to get around the
theory of the lowest bidder.

BRADY's EFFRoETERY,-The late
Post-ofice clerk, Gen. Brady, has had

PHILADELPHIA.

What shall we say to commend
our linens? Take for example a
certain double-damask table linen at
a dollar yard. We have it In a
dozen patterns SO that all depends
on quality only. How can we sell
such linen for dollar? By large
ness of dealing.
Do you imagine the heaviest stock
in Philadelphia costs as much a yard
as another Why, we sell now and
then in a single day, in a single
transaction even, more than enough
to stock an ordinary store. A day
or two ago we sold hotel about
$4,000 worth of linens. We didn't
have to buy a dollars worth except
what had to be made to order, to
put monograms in, or something of
that sort.
The secret of how far a dollar
goes here is our large dealing. Real
ly this Is great cooperation store,
The more there are of you who buy,
and the more you buy, the more We
buy, and the more we get, and give,
for a dollar.
