Too LoNG.-We have received sew
eral communications from Oakton
about post-office matters. To publish
them would be an injury to the people
ofthat section who are among the best
citizen of the county, and it would
| open up a long controversy in THE
! HERALD about matter that the out
side world is not interested in, and
that should be settled quietly by the
people themselves. We have had
similar questions to deal with in Mar
tinsburg, but the papers let the peo-
pie settle their own differences with
out publishing our divisions to the
world and give room for unjust charg-
es and judgments against the town
and the people. People will differ in
opinions because their interests are
not all alike. We believe that the
administration 1.-THE U. S. Mail Dept
will do justice to Oakton and Baxter
and their worthy postmasters, and
that each will keep its postoffice. THE
HERALD wishes 10. see all divisions
healed in town and county and allour
citizens working together for the good
of all, and for this reason we hope our
worthy correspondents and the people
will state their case properly to the
postal authorities and that they will
receive satisfaction and remain friends
and fellow. citizens and in that Spirit
we join with them and suggest that
all will find it best in the end for
themselves and their communities to
keep the discussion out of the news.
