The Postomee.

The postoffice question is still unsettled.
and the jangling goes on una bated. The
administration acts as though it would
like to oust Beardsley, and then again it
don't. 1t is said that Col. Curtis can
have the honored seat, if he desires to roll
up his sleeves and sklrmish around with
a petition for his friends to sign. But it
seems that he don't like to do that If
this postufiice matter is not soon settled,
We will start a petition for dark horse,
who if he once starts in the race, will
come under the wire away ahead. The
Washington correspondent of the Chicago
Times, sends the following, which APP
peared in Fridays issue:
1t is just learned that when Henry
Curtis, of Rock Island, was in the city
some weeks ago that he was offered the
postmastership at that place if he would
secure an Endorsement from sufficient
number of citizens to warrant the depart
ment in removing Major Beardsley. In
justice to Mr. Curtis, it may be said that
this was not his primary object in visiting
Washington, but it was known
| that he would not decline the
position If it was rendered to him and that
is why the proposition was made. Mr..
Curtis was averse to hawking about a
petition for this purpose and his friends
here allowed the matter to drop thinking
that if he was not willing to help himself
he could expect nothing from them. This
is the situation of the case at the present
time. Maj. Beardsley is spoken of here
as an amiable and kind hearted gentleman
who is popular even with the principal
element who have asked for his removal
About six hundred people of Rock Island
have petitioned for his ieappointment and
a prominent gentleman whose influence
will eventually determine the contest, said
tonight that under no circumstance
would the major be dropped unless the
opposing candidate could furnish lOngei
aud more imposing list of names in favol
of someone else Mr Beardsiey has evi
dently created fresh antagonism by bis
recent dismissal of Deputy Thomas Muir
dock. 1t is report at the department thai
one of his bondsmen has just asked to bt
released from further pecuniary RESPONSE
bility, and the major is now busy prepar
ing a new bond Murdock's dismissal il
alleged to be the cause.

rugged. Miss Eva was a famous horse
woman. While riding with her father on
Monday she urged her horse, and when some
distance ahead, the father saw that she was
joined by her lover, who had evidently been
in waiting for her. They put out at full
speed, and reaching the residence of Squire
Wall, were pron0lnced man and wife as the
pursuing father rode up. He made the best

ATLANTA, Ga, May 24,-While Joel C.
Harris Uncle Remus was sitting at his desk
in The Constitution editorial room Col.
Ezra K. Watterson, well-known planter.
accompanied by a friend. entered and
demanded by what authority Mr. Harris
was making such free use of the name
of his daughter, Miss Dora. Col. Watterson
threw his hand back to his hip-pocket, and
was with much difficulty restrained. The
cause of the trouble was a paragraph that
Mr.. Harris is about to be married to Miss
Watterson. Mr.. Harris, on examining the
paragraph, found no difficulty in tracing it
to The Chicago News. When convinced of
this Col Watterson declared his intention
of having satisfaction, even if it made neces.
sary trip to Chicago He is just the man
to carry out his promise.
