The Rockingham Register says that
Monday last was perhaps the largest
horse court ever known in the history
of Rockingham. There were between
seventy and eighty buyers in Harrison
burg, and at least $50 horses were
bought, and at fairer prices than at
Marct court. About 212 head were
shipped north, the remainder going
south and elsewhere. 1t is estimated
that between $50, 900 and s35, 900 was
left in town, and certainly this will tend
to put some little life i'm business.

of posthumous notes by General
Mcclellan, with an introduction by
General McClellan's literary executor.
"The Battle of South Mountain, or
Boonsboro'," by Gen. D. II. Hill, IS
also entertaining. The articles are

familiar and prominent by reason OF
their association with the battles OF
South Mountain anG Antietam. The
illustrations are as follows: "Head'

National Cemetery at Sharpsburgi

means, expenditures, performances
and results, the postal machinery of the
United States exceeds, in some points
far exceeds, that of any other country
on the globe. The entire length of all
the railways employed by the United
States nearly equals the combined cX-
tent of those of all other countries OF
the world: while other post routes
more than quadruplc the total OF any
single people besides, and the mileage
last year OF our mail transportation
exceeded by more than l25WOWO
miles the service rendered to any other
government. OF post-oifices no other
nation has one-third our number.
1t is estimated that 100, 900 600 more
letters were mailed in the United States
last year than in Great Britain, and
nearly that number more than We're
mailed in Germany, France and Aus
tria combined. The proportion to
each inhabitant is estimated in tn,
United States at &c, Great Britain 81
Germany, 10.
At the close of the fiscal year tn,
total number of postoiliccs was j3,6l4
besides 497 branch Offices Of thcs,

Concerning appointments the re-
port says: Appointments OF postmas

bcrcd altogether 23,1I7, of which 3, IL:
were made to fill vacancies occasioncd

5S7 vacancies caused Ivy death, 3,4S:

which will doubtless surpass all other
devices of that nature. The NeWs says
that the shade operates on a roller
placed across the middle OF the win
dow, and can be withdrawn from the
upper half of the window or from the
lower half, or from both at pleasure,
and is so arranged also with catches as
to expose only so much of the win
dow, either above or below, as is de-
sired. When the entire window is ex-
posed the shade rests in neat roll
across the center of the same, Oh the

OLYMPIA, FRIDAY EVENING, DEC. 10. 1886.
The President Oh L.alnr

The expression, uf the President on
the subject Of labor, in his Annual
Message, strike at the very root If the
cause that has led to such widespread
and their remarkable unit, of action
for relief. He finds in the protective
system Of tariff the germ that has foS-
tered monopoly until it has taken al
most absolute possession of the Gov
eminent. He SAYS: "The indirect
manner in which these eXactiOns are
made has IA tendency to conceal their
true character and extent: but We
have arrived at IA stage of >upcriluouS
revenue which has arou-, Il the people
to realization OF the fact that the
amount raised, profcsscdly for the sup
port of the Government, is paid by
them as absolutely as if added to the
price of the things which supply their
daily wants, and as if it was paid at
fixed periods into the hands of the tax
gathcrcr. Those who toll for daily
wages are beginning to understand
that capital, though sometimes vaunt-
ing its importance and clamoring for
the protection and favor of the Gov
eminent, is dull and sluggish, till
touched by the magical hand Of labor,
it springs into activity, furnishing an
occasion for federal taxation and gain
ing the value which enables il to bear
its burdens, and the lahoring man is
thoughtinlly inquiring whether. in the
circumstances. and considering the
tribute he constantly pays into the
public treasury as lie supplies his daily
wants, he receives his fair share of adj
vantages."
This is the exact situation, plainly
stated. Every sentence of the elabo-
rate review of this subject, which oc-
cupies large proportion of the docu-
ment, is in keeping with the states
manlike utterances above quoted.
Nor is the matter dismissed without
an earnest injunction to the lawmakers
to place themselves in the old but
only road to reform. He recommends
that keeping in view all these con.
siderations, the increasing and unne.
cessary surplus of national income an
nually accommodating be reduced to the
people by an amendment of our reve
nue. laws, which shall cheaper tn.
price of the necessities of life and give
freer entry to such imported material.
as by American labor may be manu-
featured into marketable commodities
Nothing can be accomplished, how
ever" he affirms, /" in the direction O.
this much needed reform unless tho
subject is approached in a patriotic
spirit of devotion to the interests o
the entire country, and with willing
ness to yield something for the public
good"
Every reader of the STANDARD i
urged to carefully peruse this portion
of the message at least, for it compre
hends in remarkable degree TIN
greatest of the questions now befor
the people, and which will doubles
be the central idea of future party ei
fort.
