Postal Clerks Policy.

Washington, ia complaint has
reached the postoffice department
that mails on the Northern Pacific
road are not properly worked by
the postal clerks, and instead OF
being distributed to the various
points along the route are carried
through to Portland and stacked
up there. Superintendent Thomp-
son says this state of affairs was
brought about by combination OF
postal clerks, who purposely neglect
their work in order to compel him
double the force. which he maintains
is already sufficient to distribute
the mails properly. However
this may be Postmaster General
Gresham has taken the matter in
hand and to might assigned Assist
ant superintendent Jameson to the
duty of going over the whole line
of road from st. Paul to Portland
and making a thorough examlna-
ton of the postal service. If he
finds the force insufficient to prop
erly work the mails, it will be in
creased; if the present Employees
are inefficient, they will be replaced
by better men; in short, wherever
change is needed to make the
service prompt and efficient along
the line, it will be supplied at once

Canadian Anti-MonopoIists.

Winnipeg, Man. l3.-The reports sent
forth regarding the snti.confederation
or anti-Uansdisn movement in Mani
toba, have very little foot for foundation
A hostile feeling exists throughout tn >
country to the monopoly provision of the
Canada Pacific monopoly charter. Since
farmers have commenced to market
grain, they are largely persuaded that
the transportion rates charged are exces-
sive, and that the rail way favors one Of
the large firms in various ways. This.
added TO the increase of duty upon seri-
cultural implements last spring, is bring.
ing further strong expressions from
farmers. They propose holding meetings
at various points to discuss the question,
and have prepared sremonstrance forPsr-
Lament at the next session. Anii-con-
federationists lie q misnomer, and was
applied by q local paper. There is .
literary organization going for Congress
in. Winnipeg, because they undertook to
discuss the grievsrces OF the provinces.
The land reserves made by the Canadian
government have also aroused strong
hostility. There Is really no deep-seated
anti-Csn adisn feeling existing, but strong
feeling does exist for more intimate COM
mercisl relations with the United States,
and Canada must redress the grievances
mentioned, or trouble may ensue.

DiSinfecting OdOrS

Mr. David Dudley Field writes an
attack on tobacco smokers. He would
have them driven out of society,
and naturally enough, this furious re-
former calls on the women to do it.
1t is evident that David Dudley
does not like the smell of tobacco,
since ne calls smokers unclean per-
sons, but he should allow for diff
ference in taste, and respect the
opinion of not few that some peo-
pie that never use tobacco carry
about with them smells that are
worse than those which come from
the use of the Indian weed.
Often in a room full
of dyspeptic reformers puff
of fresh tobacco smoke would
be blessing, and the coming even
of q person with smokessatui a e

unwelcome beast. but rather as that
of an angel of health, shaking dis
injecting odors from his wings =

The Poole Trial.

Dublin, 13.-Mr. Webb made an

case. He admits that Poole was a
member of a Fenian brotherhood,
but belonged to a sect of that organ.
ization, which had no sympathy
with the assassins and,had, more
over, inferred their enmity. He
claimed that Kenney was shot in
mistake for Poole.
!. Herschelle, @. c., closing the case
for the prosecution, ridiculed the
theory of the defense as wild and
incredible.
Justice Murphy. In summing up
the case, expressed the opinion that
Kenney was not murdered by miss
take. He said the fact that Poole
told Lowry that Kenney was killed
and that daggers were used in the
murder and were no good, that they
might as well have been chisels,
was borne out by the appearance of
wounds upon the body of Kenney.
1t was evident, said the justice, the
murder was deeply planned ana he
asked the jury even if they put the
evidence of Lowri aside, if they had
any doubt that Kenny was the per-
son intended to be murdered
During the delivery of the JUS
tees charge, Poole jumped up and
accused the justice of acting the
part of the prosecution.
After the argument the case was
given to the jury, and after an
hours consultation the jury an
nouuced that they could not agree.
The jury was discharged. The case
will be retired on Monday.
