UnmailabIe Matter.

The general superintendent Of the railway
mail service has issued an order saying
Complaint has been made that samples of
fertilizers, paints, inks, powders, and other
unmailable articles are being sent through
the mails from many of the larger postofiices,
in violation Of the regulations. In the hurry
of making up aud dispatching the mails it
may not always be possible to scrutinize every
package so as to exclude everything unmaila-
BILE; but it is believed that no Intelligent
business man would knowingly offer anything
for mailing forbidden by the regulations
Superintendents are therefore requested to
confer with the postmasters in their respect
i've divisions as to the best methods of exer-
cising moro rigid scrutiny of all fourth class
matter mailed. 1t would be we'll for all post
masters to call the attention of the public,
through the press and otherwise, to the class
of matter excluded from the mail under the
regulations, so that all may understand that
1t is in their own general interest that the de-
partment is trying by every means to exclude
from the mail everything that might, under
any circumstances, damage in any way other
articles in the mails, or the persons of those
handling them"

We are not informed as to tho full extent

Free Trade In ships.
Peoria Transcript.

at is a disgrace to the government" says
the democratic Washington Post, that we ne
elected shipbuilding and gunmaking until we
are compelled to have the steel turrets for the
new monitors constructed in England, and
must either go without heavy guns or buy
them abroad. This would bo delightful
state of things if we were to find ourselves at
war with any of the great powers" The Post
is quite right in these assertions and assump-
tions. But one reason for this dis
graceful condition of affairs has been the
persistent opposition Of the democratic
party to proper appropriations for the recon-
struction of our navy. And, further, the
democratic idea of free trade in ships, or in
guns, or in anything else, is exactly calcu-
lated to make us dependent upon foreign
countries and manufacturers for ships, guns,
and everything else that will contribute to
our national prosperity and dignity. So long
as cheaper or pauper labor is in existence to
build ships abroad in competition with our
own shipyards it will be dangerous thing,
disastrous thing, to do away with the pro-
lection now extended to our home ship
builders. "If we were to find ourselves at
war with any Of the great powers" to use
the Posts own words, what would we do If
our shipbuilding and gunmaking industries
had been previously destroyed by the freezing
out process of competition with tho cheaper
productions of Engand2 And in connection
with this view of the case the fact must not
be forgotten that the adoption Of Senator
Bcck's, or the democratic, free ship policy
would at once serve to reduce wages and
practically throw out of employment large
numbers of shipwrights and others depend
ent upon that industry for livelihood. On
the other hand, the retention of our present
laws upon the statute books, while they do
not insure all the encouragement that
class of laborers deserve, would enable the
country or the government in the event OF
war to fall back upon certain reserve for its
protection and preservation. Any other
policy would he simply suicidal, and the
plain logic of the quotation we have made
from the Post proves the soundness of that
deduction. Already our navy and merchant
marine has deteriorated into the next thing
to utter insignihcance; and the adoption OF
the democratic policy Of stinted appropria-
tions for the former and free trade in ships as
regards the latter, would put an end to both
almost ingtanter
