Let Full Justice re Done.

To the Editor ol THE REPUBLICAN;
In the critic of Saturday there appeared under
the head Of VI" Let Justice BE DOne," some remarks
relating to the pay of watchmen in the Treasury
Department No doubt the writer of that article
was acuated by desire to do something toward
bringing about and promoting very just and
worthy action on the part of our national legsla.
tors--viz the restoration In full of the amounts
taken from the salaries Of watchmcn and other
departmental employees by the so called economy
of the Forty-hfth Congress; but the writer above
alluded to made Il mistake In saying that the pay
in all instances where reduced except in the case
of the Treasury wachmcn, had been restored 10 its
original figure, and that the employees affected
had been reimbursed for loss sustained. The fact
Is that except in the of wutchmen the salaries
only in one or two instances have been restored,
and In 10 Cnse, fur rs nm able To learn, has
there been any reimbursement The act reducing
salaries not only reduced the pay of watchmcn but
It also affected the pay Of another class of en-
ployees whose duties are equally Onerous and
important as those of the watChmen. l refer to
messengers and aborers these employees, like
the watchmen are required to keep up an appear
above what their official incomes Justify, and in
addition most of them are men who have large
families to provide for. Iheybhavc twice petit
toned Congress TO restore their pay and reimburse
them for the loss sustained by the reduction net,
and In each case have had the petition backed up
by favorable Endorsements from the heads of De-
purtments In neither instance has Congress seen
iL 10 pay any attention to their claims, and II now
remains to be seen VIII ther the present Congress
will consent to undo as an act of Justice an nc
tion cOnsummated in the dying hours of the first
session of the fOrtyiiith Congress- when the
poorly paid employees affected by its provisions
were hard at work in their respective Offices un-
able to get the ear of any one who could or would
do anything toward preventing glaring act OF
