with contempt The look of lofty scorn on

The New York Tribune gives this pen

keep up a %pumphandle movement which
makes the Senator frequently appear rs
If he were engaged IN an exercise to aid
digestion rather than to enforce argu.
mant. Beck is a well.informed man; his
mind is a perfect storehouse Of figures
and facts. If he cannot always use them
to advantage in debate it is because he is
slow to perceive a point, and unable to
recognize in an instant the salient feat
ures of an opponents argument. He
must have time to prepare himself.
When he is primed, however. he goes off
at a rate which takes his friends breath

A NATIONAL CONVENTION OF
POSTMA8TERS

A national convention Of third and
fourth class Postmasters has been called
to meet at Chicago next Friday, the 18th
instant. Postmassers Of the third class
receive more han 81. 900 and not more
than So, 600; and those of the fourth
class receive not less than 5000 and not
more than 81, 900. The third class are
appointed by the President and Senate,
and the fourth class by the Postmaster
General. The convention is called by a
Postmasters' National Committee, which
was appointed at a preliminary meeting
of representatives of the Postmasters in
terested, and the object oil the conven.
ton is one which many Postmssters Gen.
eral have recommended, but to which
Congress has been Indifferent. The pro-
posed action OF the convention is simply
and practically a petition to Congress tor
relief from what are declared to be un
Just incumbrances upon the officers con-
cerned. To the remark that if such
Postmasters do not like their positions
they can resign in favor OF those who
woald gladly take them with all the an.
noyances, the committee reply that, as
American citizens in the service Of the
Government, they propose to represent
to the Government that the system is
unjust. and therefore ought to be cor.
rected, whether there are those who are
willing to submit to it or not.
The grievances Of the third. class Post
masters are stated to be that they are re.
qnired to give all their time and atten.
ton to the Office, says Harpers Weekly,
aud not to engage in any other business,
and at the same time to pay for rent,
light, fuel, stationery. clerk hire, and
every other expense of the office. while
the expenses Of the first and second class
Offices are paid by the Government, al.
though the heads of those offices perform
no greater service. First Assistant Post
master General Stevenson renews the
recommendation of his predecessors, that
the rent and Office expenses OF the third.
class Offices should be paid, aud last
March an Act was passed. giving the
Postmaster General discretion in paying
the rent OF third.cl offices; but the sum
appropriated was so small that the law
was imperative. The fourth.cla las officers
complain Of the compulsory division Of
box rents with the Government, when
the boxes are paid for by themselves.
and are their private property. They ask
that the boxes and fixtures should be
paid for by the Government. The com.
psnsation for the issuing of money orders
is also held to be inadequate.
There is no doubt that the experience
OF Postmasters Is Invaluable in rectifying
the postal laws. But upon the theory of
our Postofice service, and with the large
annual deficit, the case Of the protesting
Postmasters must be made very plain to
secure relief. Yet if raising the appro.
priation for rent from $3.50, 900 to $780,.
900 would secure more efficient service,
the money would be we'll spent.
