Mr.. ARTHUR, az a candidate for Preal-

Mr.. Arthur IL popular, no has done

IN he-and, no far IA We now remember,

ground.
In his annual message to Congress In
1882 no recommended 10 the Republi'
ran1, then In the majority, 10 reform
The tarlfi by adding largely IN the free
Il-t ana by simplifying the duties on
cotton GOO non aud steel, aud max.
ing n substantial reduction OF lhr duties
on these ARTICLES and on sugar, mOlassen,
silk, wool and w0Ollen goods.
These were his exact words, and they
are cTeditable to his atatesmanlike wis

II recommend An enlargement OF the

Ot duties upon certain manufactures,
particularly those upon cotton, iron aud
steel, aud q substantial reduction Of the
duties upon those articles, aud upon
sugar, mOlasses, ilk, wool aud woollen

Mr., Arthur, In fact. recommended q
much larger measure OF tarlf reform
than that which Mr.. Morrison IL about

II w0nld be we'll for Tho Poatmaater-
General 10 give some attention TO tho
official advertisement for mail'aack
fasteners. The fastener now used WAS
put upon tho Department by George A.,
Sheridan, who served In Congress about
"a hours aa Representative from
Louisiana, but drew his pay for the
whole session, and was afterwards made
recorder Of deeds by President Hayes,
and who, while serving In the latter ca
pacity, oblhined from tho inventor, by
trlckery and dupliclly, control OF o
patent fastener, the adoption OF which
by the POsl0ilice drparIment he secured,
fhis device had previously been offered
TO the Department by the inventor In
confederation OF the payment TO him OF
u royalty OF three centa each on th'
faslenera, which hr correctly asserted
could be made aud delivered 10 the De-
partment for eight cents apiece. Under
the manipulation Of Sheridan, tho fast
enera cost the Government over 20 cents
ehch, aud more than lifty thousand dol
lars wha expended for this appliance,
Ine details OF this whole transaction are
now a part Of the records OF the Depart
ment. as there was pretended inyesti'
cation OF the subject by committee
appointed simply 10 "whitewash" the
matter, which had been ventilated IN
he New York Sun; and there Ia little
doubt that Postmaster General James
clerk received pecunlary consideration
from Sheridan or hla agents for services
rendered In this case,
