In the list of new postmasters published in
last evenings Advertiser appeared the name
of G. f. Kilburn, appointed at North Par
sonsfeld, in place of Gardner Smart. There
by hangs a tale. The post Office question has
been a burning issue with the people of that
little community of late, and the excitement
is not likely to be allayed by the action of
the department The office serves about
sixty families, and the income is perhaps
$12O year. Mr.. Smart has been postmaster
for number of years, and is said to have
given general satisfaction. He has taken
but little part in politics. The applicant cir
culated petition and got fifteen or twenty
names, whereupon a protest with 80 sigma
lures, many of them Democratic, was sent to
the department. followed by one signed by
81 women of the place. The part taken by
the ladies in the matter is what renders it
particularly interesting. Their remOn-
STRANGE reads as follows:
The undersigned women, who receive and send
mail through the post office at North Parsonstied
York county, Maine, without claiming any pOlltl-
cal rights or privileges, respectfully protest
against the removal of Gardner Smart, postmast-
Because Mr.. Smart has performed the duties of
postmaster faithfully and to general acceptanee
the office Is convenient and neat; the mail Is
promptly delivered and quiet and good order are
enforced.
Because Mr.. Smart has been cripple many
years, obliged to use crutch and cane, unable to
earn livelihood by other employment.
Because, as the stage arrives late in the day we
find it convenient to get mail in the evening.
and it would be very unpleasant to enter q corner
grocery, full of smoking loafers, or send our chill
dren there.
These reasons are certainly we'll put, and
deserved respectful consideration. If the
Second Postmaster General received the doe
ument before making the change, he may
fairly be called unreasonable as well as un-
gallant 1t appears that Mr. Smart was
faithful, efficient and not extensively parti-
san. Moreover, a majority of the people
served by the office, regardless of politics,
desired his retention. 1t is not creditable to
Mr. Stevenson that he chose to disregard the
wishes of the people most concerned.

ALABAMA CLAIMS
The Force of Experts Revising the
Second List of Judgments
1890 Persons in the Second Class
Whose Claims Foot up
Slo,5oo, 900.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 23.-The additional force
of experts employed by the Court of Alabama
Claims are now well advanced in their revision of
the second list of judgments, embracing all cases
in which judgments have been modified on re-
hearing and when the court meets again in pub
lie session next Monday, these lists will be ready
for the court to certify to the Secretary of State
for payment The awards in the second class, or
war premium cases, foot up fraction over S10,-
100000, and are divided among IL 300 claimants
who will probably receive little over so cents on
the dollar of the amount awarded, without inter-
est.
The existing law provides that the powers of
the clerk of the court shall be extended for pc
riod not exceeding four months after the termina-
ton Of the existence of the court foPthe purpose
of closing up the business of his office and depos-
iting the records in the office of the Secretary of
State. The bill introduced by Senator Frye, and
now pending, increases this time to six months,
and the amount which it is proposed to retain out
of the fund for that purpose is SIS 000 this to in
cude the rent of the court room, clerical hire and
all other expenses The records are so bulky
that the estimates obtained from competent per-
sons place the cost of carriage alone at over $3.50,
and all these records have to be indeXed and a
printed list prepared of the judgments rendered.

taken up and the lizard captured. He measured
eight inches in length which seems to be the arg

Concerning President E. N. coff.

NEW YORK, Dec 23.-The directors and
officers of the American Electric Manufac-
turing Co. are very indignant regarding the
charges made by Canadians against Mr..
Geff, and large number of prominent busi-
ness men, including nearly all the compa-
ny's directors have been calling all day at
the Western Union building to offer Mr..
Golf their confidence in his integrity and
their assurances of any support, financial or
otherwise, which he may require. Letters
and telegrams from his friends in all parts
of the country are also coming to him hourly,
offering sympathy and support. The follow
ing testimonial from the directors of the
company was handed Mr.. Golf today by Mr.
HYDE president of the Agawam National
Bank and NIr. Frost, general manager of the
Southern New England Telephone Co.,
which reads as follows:
seWe the undersigned directors of the American
Electric Manufacturing Co., after full examlna-
tion of the charges recently made against the
character of our president Edward II. Goff, desire
to express in the fullest manner our entire conf
dence in his honesty and integrity and our belief
that these charges emanate entirely from ma
lignant desire to harm an innocent man."
