An ANGRY DEMOCRAT.
Who Asked NEr. Day to Help Him
Secure Some POst0fficeS.

Secure Some POstoffices.
Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Aug. GA prominent
Democrat from Eastern Dakota came here
last February and remained until less than
week ago. He came to get an Office for
himself, and relied upon his influence with
his former state compatriotS. In addition
to wanting an Office for himself, he also
wanted offices for all Of the family at home.
he modestly requested few postoffices
The department wouldn't give away post
Offices promiScuouSly to one family while
there are so many Of the unterrifed who
have neither office nor promise of one.
Hence our Dakota man got mad, as the
sa! ing is at the department. Between the
eXudationS of nicotinous salvation he emit
ted cuSS words at the entire administration
and at the postotfice department in particu-
lar. Then he wrote letter to Hon. NJ. II.
Day, asking him to assist him in the mat
ter of poStotices for the family Mr. Day
wrote back: 81 am sick and tired of all
this poStof1ice racket | have no time to at
tend to it and | don't intend to be bothered
with IT any longer 1t does me no good
and only makes enemies for me- l have
tried to serve my friends. but in so doing [
have not served myself. | have neglected
my business. 1 will have nothing to do
with your postoffice; nor with any other
one" Then right mad was the Dakota
man. and madden and madden he grew.
He bundled his grip-sack, took fresh
chew Of tobacco and tackled train for the
boundless West. He shook the dust from
his boots as he departed. Thus is there
added one Democrat to the goodly number
OF kickers in Dakota. The horny-fisted
son OF toll to whom | allude will go home
and cuss the administration and every one
who has anything to do with it, but he will
not vote anything but a straight Democratic
ticket as long as he lives. He's mad, but
he's Democrat all the same.

Bevans' Leave Extended.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 27.-Hon. S. S..
Beyans, special agent of the Watertown
land district. is still here. His leave of
absence has been again extended. Col.
Bevans has some matters of great import
ance to himself to attend to before the
comptroller of the treasury department. A
matter involving several thousand dollars is
pending, and he is obliged to be here in
person to answer the various questions
which the department propounds. Just
the nature of the business cannot be ascer-
tanned from the department, and the prin-
cipal in the case will not yet divulge it,.
The interior department, however. is salts

has repeatedly said that the Brooklyn compa'
mics ought to pledge Themselves not to charge
moro than five cents fare but there has oeen

rcason why the Secretary of State has not
taken vacation is that he does not care to 60

the quality of the goods was not lowered nor
the standing of the company shaken. Only 3
per cent was paid in 1875 and the same in
1877, but in other years 6, or 10 per cent
has been divided by the fortunate holders of
