Local Business Men Needn't Apply.

WAsHINGToN, March 9. 9.-Postmaster
General Bissell is accredited with the
announcement that no local business men
need apply for postoffices under his ad
ministration. He objects to commission
ing local business men as postmasters for
the reason that the actual duties are per
formed by irresponsible and often in
competent clerks and substitutes. Post
masters under Mr. Bissell must promise
to devote their entire time to the work
and personally keep strict Office hours.

it would he so substantially; there migh'
be exceptional and extraordinary circum

The Valley Virginian. [volume] (Staunton, Va.) 1865-1895, 1893-08-10


We have always hoped that the day
would come when VIM. L. Wilson, as
Chairman of the Ways aud Means Com
mittee, would present to Congress tar
iff bill in which honest means would be
employed to raise revenue for the needs
of the government instead of the vicious
methods practiced by Mckinley and the
Republican party to build up manufac>
turers by bleeding the people; these
hopes will be realized if the prophesies
of the politicians go for anything. We
have read carefully the comments of the
press upon the official work and ability
of many statesman now serving the
country. We do not care to boast be-
cause Mr.. Wilson Is of our State and
more particularly of our county, but we
feel we speak the truth when we say no
living man is more competent to undo
the wrong done the American people by
class legislation than Mr.. Wilson, and
no man will labor more earnestly to cor
rect these abuses and lift unjust burdens
from the shoulders of the people.-Shep

Silver in the House.

Congress did nothing on Monday. The
Presidents message was not received,
and for want of that discussion fell upon
Mr.. Cockran's options. He favors the
immediate suspension of the Sherman
act by a resolution, without any potter
ing over it by committees with great
numbering reports, consuming a lot OF
time. Hence he asks the silver men in
the House to agree to discussion and
vote before rules are adopted and before
the Committees are appointed. Mr..
Cockran's plan is to agree to vote on
free coinage at the present ratio of Is to
1; then to vote on ratio of 20 to l. If
both fail to support free coinage then to
have vote for the unconditional repeal
of the Sherman act.-Balt. San.
