A LEXINGTON BOY,

We clip the following telegram, dated
st Joseph Mo-, March 6, 1891, from the
st. Louis Globe Democrat, which is self
explanatory.
Col. James Hall, the prospective Inter-
nal Revenue Collector for this district.
said to-day that while in Washington a
few days since he called upon Postmaster
General Bissell to urge upon him the
early appointment of a new postmaster
for st. Joseph. and was surprised when
informed that no appointment would
probably be made for three years. The
democrats here are greatly stirred up
over the announcement. Mr.. Bissell got
down his books containing reports on all
presidential postmasters, and after run
ming his finger down the list, stopped at
st. Joseph. After scanning the record a
few minutes, he laid the book down and
turning to Mr.. Hall with a bland smile,
said:
"Well, l am OF the opinion that Mr..
Atkinson will be allowed to serve out his
time. l find that the record OF his office
is one of the very best in the country, and
the civil service rules will not permit us
to bounce him and put a democrat in his
place, much as we would like. Ii you
people out there want Atkinson removed,
you must prefer charges against him
which will stand in this department, or
otherwise he will be allowed to remain
But" protested Mr.. Hall, 81 thought
that this appointment was only to fill out
Capt. Ernest's unexpired term"
"This department does not appoint
postmasters to fill out unexpired terms
replied Mr.. Bisscll. "His commission
runs for four years from the date of his
appointment, and that will give him
nearly three years yet to serve. l don't see
what you can do about it,"
