TRAITORS TO THEIR COUNTRY.

In some of the smaller communities
of states hitherto considered loyaI
attempts at notification OF national
authority ale made. The authority OF
the United States is denied POstInas-
tiers bearing the regular commission OF
the government are %boycotted upon
the theory that they are democrats and
therefore should not handle the mail
When, in a larger way, South Caro-
lima assumed to nullify national author
ity Andrew jackson brought up the
recalcitrant with so sudden a jerk that
it made South Cardinals head swim.
A short and simple method is open to
the postal authorities at Washington
for the punishment of these rebels. 1t
isn't necessary to order out the troops
or to strike their heads oft. If they
don't want a p~ostofice the department
at Washington ought to be BILE to &C
commodate them. 1t is as easy to DIS
continue as to establish a postohce.
The Ohio traitors to the best govern
ment the sun ever shone upon need a
lesson. The majesty OF the nation
with a big N, must be respected. No

RAILROAD BUILDING IN 1885.

CHICAGO, Dec. 30-The Railway
Age says: "When this year opened
very little was expected in the way OF
railway building. The record shows
that this assumption was far from cor-
rect. We find that the total length OF
main lines laid in the United States
during 1885 was 3,143 miles. This is
about 700 miles less than in 1884, and
it is less than in any year since 1873,
when the total vas but 2,OS7 miles.
The longest extension of the year has
been that of the Fremont, Elkhorn and
Missouri Valley line of the Chicago
and Northwestern system from Valen-
tine, Neb., west and north 191 miles to
Buffalo Gap, OAK, whence it will be
pushed in the spring to the Black
Hills.
s'There is every indication that 1885
has marked the lowest amount of rail-
way extension for some years to come,
and that 1886 will be signalized by a
very large increase of construction"
