The star of all is sweet sixteen"
The Examiner and The waco
ESOsIOflice.

While one of the waiting crowd at the
post office yesterday morning, the bust
ness manager of the EXAMINER was
subjected to an exhibition of wanton
discourtesy by Mr.. George Weibusch,
who is the depaty or assistant post
master. 1t is not proposed to intlict
lengthy details Of the matter upon the
public, further than to say that it was
connected with the mailing and postage
business of the paper. The assistant
postmaster selected as an opportunity
for his remarks time when a NUMBER
of gentlemen, waiting for their mail or
having other special business, were
enforced listeners to an insinuation
as unjust as it was wantOn.
Ordinarily complaint Of such a circum-
stance would have been made to Post
master Leland, trusting to him to adj
monish a subordinate who Is perhaps
indiscreet and ill-behaved simply be-
cause he does not know any better, and
on repetition of the offense given 1t
such publicity as is now given But
as Postmaster Leland was listener
himself, there is no occasion for such
course, preferable as it would have
been. The EXAMINER regrets the ne
cessity for this statement, but feels that
private citizens and business men have
some rights, even as compared with
post-otfice employe. Hereafter we beg
Mr.. Leland that either himself or Edgar
Battle will attend to all business mat
tiers between the EXAMINER and the
Waco post-office. Mr. Wiebusch is too
prone to abuse the prerogatives of his
situation.

and the belief is increasing day by day
that although her. husband may have beer
somewhat hasty in his actions when ht
came home from his long voyage, he still
had good cause for leaving the woman
who bore his name.
