Mr.. Armstrong was considerably sur
prised to learn from the lips of the assist

Mr.. Minty told the gentleman. 1t will be

THE HERALD has nothing personal against
the Ogden postmaster. 1t is well known
that he could not, if he would, do the worn

not his fault, but his misfortune, that he is
physically incapacitated. But he might at
least employ competent assistant to make
his own burdens lighter. Six good men
could do more and better work than the ten
or dozen who don't do it.
