A bill is pending before Congress
providing for reduction of letter post.
age to two. cents, the passage of which
should be strongly urged not merely
beca use it saves few dollars to the
business community and to those who
write letters, but because it removes a
restrictive tax on the spread ofliterary
intelligence. We recollect when pos.
tage on letters was Ave cents and there
was considerable opposition to reduc-
ton to three cents. But short time
was required to show that the move
ment was a wise one. Letter writing
increased to such an extent that had
there been no necessity foran extensi on

office Department would have been self
sustaining. In the north where there
has always been higher grade of
intellectual attainment. the postage
more than pays cost of mail facilities.
1t has always been the aim of the Gov
eminent not to profit by tax on the
of the country and as the
Postotfice Department is now reduced
to nearly paying basis without Grip.
ping mall facilities, we are of the
opinion that another reduction OF pos

something, He has actually taken a
step towards providing for a Govern

hope the Senator will not kill his bill
by liking it and Gaping it with ri

shall be employed in its construction
or that they shall not all be prohibi-

As WAS generally expected, Hon. j.
G. Blaine, set things perfectly straight
before the Shipherd investigating com
mittee yesterday. His opinion that
Shipherd was not in his right mind
has been the opinion Of many well
informed persons who have waded
through his miserable jumbled up
evidence. 1t will take heavier ammu-
milton than Shepherds to break down

From the Baraboo Bulletin
In 1856 Mr.. and Mrs William RODGERS left
Baraboo, Wis, and went to Colorado Mr..
Rodgers was vigorous. enterprising Young
man, but he had poor success in business vent
ures. Going west, he was for time EMPLOYED
as cashier in a bank in one OF the smaller towns
but his speculative nature led him to invest in
mining property and finally he found himself
one or the four partners in a firm that owned
the famous Robert e. Lee mine, considered one
OF the richest in the world. The permanent de-
yelopment OF the mine had just begun when MIR
RocgeT5 was stricken with paralysis. The power
to use his limbs and voice was cOmnetelv rome
anu lor months, ana even years, he lay upon his
bed entirely helpless. His sight and hearing
however, were not affected vet it proved a
torture to the poor man himself, for he could
hear and see things which bred irrepressible
agony In his mind. He knew, but could not tell
or the vast resources Of "the Lee" could hear
from the lips OF the watchers about his bedside
that the affairs Of the mine had become couded
over with deep mystery, and that rumOrs were
rife OF its possible ultimate failure to yield pay
ing ore"
The management Of Mr. Rodgers interest de-
volved upon his wife. and finally, at the earnest
solicitation OF the remaining partners and friends
or the afflicted falnily-the friends believing the
reports concerning the property were true-and
piesscu ny Tie imminent want Tor the nccesSa-

quish her husbands fourth, the consideration
being S50,0OO. No sooner had the negotiations
been completed and the money paid than the
Robert T.. Lee mine commenced to BOOM The
reports of its unearthed wealth were simply
fabulous, and the treasures that came from it
Justified the reports The fact is notorious that
100000 was taken from the mine in twenty
Iour hours lew years ago, the managers desir-
ing TO test the capacity of their machinery.
Finally 1t was suggested that there must be some
redress for the wrong that had been perpetrated,
ana Mrs. Rodgers was induced to consult a law
yer She at once sought the advice of Judge
Dixon, once chief Justice of the supreme court
OF Wisconsin All the circumstances were laid
before him, and the judge said he thought they
mad a case. Regular proceedings were accord
ngly entered in the proper court in Colorado.

point, out the Badger lawyer rersevered, and a

Mr. Rodgers in the sum OF 81, 600. coo. The
court also allowed the plaintiff a certain claim
as interest compensation upon past productions
Of the mine.

phaeton, and is having miliner trim it with
