Under date Of February s, 1894, Congress
man Compton writes to gentleman of our
town: II thought, after an interview had
at the Post Once Department few weeks
ago, that your mail matter had been fixed
as you desired II. I viii look after IT,"
The gentleman to whom the above was
written had requested Mr.. Compton to use
his influence to have the Leonardtown
mail forwarded by the route recently petit
toned for by the patrons of this Office.
There now seems to be a bright prospect
for greatly increased mail facilities. An
early mail train is to be put on the Pope's
Greek road and this connecting with the
w. & P. at Brandywine ought to give us
our mail in the morning instead of at night
as at present. The Charles county delega.
ton are entitled 10 the thanks of business
men all through the Southern Maryland
peninsular for the active interest It has
taken in this question of increased mail
facilities. Il will be great advance when
Southern Marylanders are enabled TO read
the Baltimore papers eight hours after pub
lication instead of fifteen hours rs at pres
ent, and to answer Baltimore and Wash.
ington letters on the day they are received.

Te Correspondents.

The BEACON is always pleased to give
publicity to the views Of correspondents
upon any subject of current interest and it
makes no difference whether the views
agree with those of its editors or not, for the
paper Is not responsible for the opinions Of
correspondents. But there are conditions
which we must insist upon being observed
by those who write US for publication. LIST,
the real name of the writer must accom-
pany the Communication, not necessarily
Cor publication but - guaranty OF good
faith; End, the communication must be
written ON but one side of the paper; 3rd
IL must contain nothing Ebelous. The frs,
and second of these requisites are the ones
usually disregarded. The first needs nc
explanation the reason for the second viii!
be apparent 10 any one who viii take q
sheet OF paper written ON both sides, cut IL
in two and give il TO two different persons
TO read. A communication written on
both sides causes great delay because II
cannot be divided for two sypesetters 70
work on and compels one man to do al
the work while others stand idle waiting
for HIM 10 finish his stake" This explains
the cause of the non-appearance Of many
communications.

February 10, 1894.
Messrs. Editors:-The splashing of oars,
the Tapping of sails, boisterous talking,
laughing, etc, aresufflcientt to confuse ones
ideas, yet, I endeavor TO preserve an equa-
nimity of mind, and the leisure moments
which present themselves, I shall utilize in
the way of giving you the nsws. as am
aware that you seldom or never hear from
this section.
The merchants here are doing fair
business, principally for cash, despite the
dull times, which are said TO weigh like an
incubus upon the country.
Our school teachers, Miss Hebb and Mr..
Hayden, have ell that they can possibly
attend TO as their pupils may be numbered
by cozens. With laudabls ambition and
an-dnyielding perseverance. many Of the
large pupils are striving TO acquire an edu-
cation.
The low prices Of oysters-from 20 to 30
cts, per bushel-taxes no doubt the ere
duliy Of non residents. Tongsmen, how.
ever, are cheerful and they utilize their
time, weather permitting, in using their
tongs to the best advantage possible.
The citizens of the Island. with few ex.
ceptions. favor the passage Of an assessmen.
bill that will do justice to all property
owners, irrespective OF the wishes of the
wire-pullers Of Baltimore City.
The social system is at standstill now
that the holy season of Lent is current
Those of my neighbors who indulge the
hope which arches their pathway with the
rainbow ola joyous failure unite with me
in saying that they believe that times will
brighten up soon, and that wage-earners
win enjoy the fruition of their hopes at an
early day; that hard times, dull times, ETC.,
win take their fight ard, Like the cloudy
fabric of vision" leave not sign to indi-
cate their disagreeable presence. I am al
ways hopeful and trust that our law
makers At Washington may speedily pass
the Tariff bill, and thereby relieve the
minds Of the people from trying suspense.

rulings on any hypothetical cases that
may arise. But, lest you might draw inn
proper differences of permission from the
above answer TO your question, your at
tention is called to the third section Of an
act entitled An act to prohibit the inn
portation and migration of foreigners and
aliens under contract and agreement TO
perform labor in the United States. its
territories and the District of Columbia
approved Feb. %. 1885. and the suggestion
IS made that l am not prepared at this
time and with the data before me 10 ex-
press any opinion as TO whether skilled
labor for the St. Louis stamping company
cannot be otherwise obtained than by the
importation of alien laborers.'
While Owen was particularly active in
behalf Of his friends Of the tin plate IN
dustry, he did not wholly neglect the IN
terests Of other protected employers. For
instance, he permitted the Dobsons Of
Philadelphia 10 import twenty-siX work
men TO assist in the manufacture of silk
velvets. But the labor organizations or
the Quaker city made such fuss about
this that these workmen were finally sent
back to Europe.
Owens chief work as commissioner Of
immigration seemed TO be to devise plans
for permitting favored employers to vio-
late the contract labor law, to the neglect
Of everything else. His administration
was so inefficient in all other directions
that the bureau of immigration became
public scandal The work at New York
City was so negligently done that the
health authorities of the state charged that
the bureaus negligence was directly re
sponsible for the introduction of small
pOX and typhus into the metropolis.
Such is a part of Owens labor record. 1t
is a record which the worlIingmen of In
diana should scan carefully. Owen stands
as the representative of a party which has
never been friendly to labor and owen IS
a fit exponent of the policy of hostility to
workingmen's interests.
