Sir Five times has the country under the nalign

nisering the rite OF confirmation to Mrs. Anclie

Stockport, n. Y, Sept Is, 1sss.
This is a sample of the crooked work that is
widely being done in the Postal Department Of this
reform Administration-the trained political
service with which according to Mr.. Grover
Cleveland horde of oiIicc-holders stand ready
to aid their pap-dspenscrs reelection. Com
plants OF such violations of law and public right
are numerous. and come from all parts of the
country. The mails are tempered with, their
delivery is wilfully delayed, and the National
Treasury is defrauded by the transmission of
matter on which postage is paid. The TRIBUNE
pays postage at second-cass rates on all copies Of
its issues that are sent through the mails but it
does not pay postage on the thrdclass matter that
is foisted into its wrappers by the agents of the
Democratic Campaign Committee. We call the
attention Of the Postmaster-Gencral and of the
public TO this case, not in expectation that the
wrong will be rghted-we are not green enough 10
look for that-but for the pious consolation Of
those few and fatuous souls who still regard pub
lie office in Democratic hands as a public trust.
