What Is Afoot in the Southi

There is evidently disposition upon
the part of the department officials in
the Post-ofice Department to have the
people believe that President Arthur
has turned over a new leaf and will
have the department run in the interest
of the people instead of the whims and
conveniences of the politicians. They
speak as though the injunction of the
New York Sun to "turn the rascals
OUT will be obeyed. There are those
who believe that Arthur has nothing to
do with it, and that he is too shrewd
politician to engage in anything of the
kind. Now that he has got through
fishing, maybe he will find time to rise
and explain. The Postmaster-Ge General
would hardly have assumed so much
authority without the knowledge and
approval of the President, and those
who have been left out in the cold
might as well make up their minds to
go to work to defeat him in the next
election. Government officials are not
brutes to be kicked and cuffcd about
like so many dogs, and the party that
will sustain an Administration that will
allow it should be told "to 60" Upto
this time the postmaster in this city has
no idea why he was removed, nor has
the people any information to give him.
All reasons for it are withheld by the
department, and the last words said to
him by Mr.. Lampson, the Inspector.
were: " You and your Office are all
right" Yet but few days elapse and
he is unceremoniously removed, even
without a minutes notification.
The truth is, the Republican party
has been so long in power until the
Administration treats all subordinates
as menia!s. If any cause for this ex-
listed it would be a different thing, but
to send men through the country and
throw business men out of employment
without ceremony is more than the peo-
pie will quietly submit to, and such
proceedings will drive every decent man
out of the party. That there is some
great political move on foot in the
South we have no question. 1t is hard
| ly probable that Arthur and his gang
would suddenly become SO exceedingly
virtuous as to attempt to please the
people of the South rather than his
pets in politics. 1t may be that the re-
duction of the clerical forces in the
post-otfices will help to swell the Golfers
of the campaign fund-a thing needed
| just now since there can be no more
political assessments. Should this prove
to be the case, we will not be in the
least surprised, and the manner and
time in which these reductions are
made strengthens the belief.-Cotunabus
