one-half of them are vacant. The Postmaster

said that the publication of the vacancies
would entail heavy rush upon

present condition of affairs the Democratic cor

made.
This is the fist time, however, say old journal
ists when free and full access has been refused
to the books showing all about the appoint
ments, terms, ETC., of postmasters, and there is
much complaint on account of the mysterious
and red-tape manner in which the Postofice De-

he has not enough offices to reach around in the
