sought to make political capital ISia OsN'

In view Of the facts, as Art nj,
graphed, Senator Salisbury, OWUs, Sls y,
publisher Of the Dover Ds'Ss.Aaa aug
wrote q letter to the Postmaster Gsas

the fact and asked that an i,,-4. I

Government was deputlzed TO maksS ~
vestigation which he did with tbsI
lowing result: '- 'N'''i
According TO an editorial In A ,oo.,,
issue of the Delawarean in relation !.
the matter, 1t was stated that tbs UaD,,'
mailed to Harrington and Frederesa Y
the 2lst OF October failed to arrvS !,
the usual time and those for tbs nav
place had not arrived on the folloVi",
Tuesday. This was the main cams h.
the complaints. After Thorough h
vestigation by the government iD,rs,
tor 1t was lear ned that the mails M
reached FELTON, all right. At this DOIut
while the postmaster was busLy N
Igaged with the letters in the mali
prominent Democrat came In and askI
for his Delawareau, whereupou N
postmaster ordered his assistant
empty the pouch and give him hv N
per. The assistant did 80, and tbsJ
t - pouch to one side, thinking that M
Z tt3nts were all emptied Ou. Afsl
tho mail had been made up for Fvdwl
lea and oGher points and displshS
was learned thar a bundle Of Delaware
ans for Frederick and bundle Of Sent
nels for Hollinsville were left in m
pouch and of course could not b vu
to their destination before the fOllOvin
Monday, when they were delivered
the respective Offices In those town
and were not detained until Tuesday
the Delawarean inferred. 1t might
said, however, that some Of the Sl
n scribers to that paper, appreciate th
N paper 30 highly that t1ey do not tai
" them from the office for two and thle
weeks at time, and this neglect d
their part is attributed to thenegligenO
of the post Office officials,
The officials throughout this Sta
and the United States are TOO wei
posted in the postal laws and reguIl
tions to attempt to suppress maj
matter in any shape as they stand haOl
for the detention Of the same, as We
as any individual who is entrusted vi
any important business, and the wnS
matter appears tn have originated my
the ranks of the nemOcratc party ~
purpose of making political Caplnl
the same, aud the parties who ilfniS1S
Senators Bayard and SaulSOuiy wv
the facts were certainly WORKING iaA
way. Both Senators were lniOf4ea
some persons unknown tA& hawl
Lewis, q route agent on the DeaWa,
railroad was responsible tOt thS wuO
trouble and to him they laid tne D'au
That part of the compliant was ~
aailed as Mr.. Lewis was not On w
on the day stated, which leo tns y
ernmept officials to think thatitWs
political ruse, and Senator BayMa'S
