The New Post Once boom.

The Evening Journal takes up the
new Post Office bill with as much en-
thusiasm as If it believed in it. We are
refreshed by such gratuitous zeal. We
would like to cheer the work along with
a shout or two; but we always need a
US to very lively demonstrations. The
fact is we do not believe there is going
to be any Post Office this year or this
Congress. With a deficit in the revenue
and a Presidential election coming on,
Congress will be apt to make very linz
dted appropriations for Federal buildings,
and what it does spend will go to dis
tricts which can be worked for the G.. O.
F. e November, a thing. which no
sane man regards as possible regarding
the Seventh District Of New Jersey.
But even if the bill had a prospect of
passing. We should not feel enthusiastic
about. it. 1t appropriates only s5O0, 900 for
the proposed building and site. This, if
our municipal Monstrosity Is to be taken
as q criterion. is an inadequate sum for
the erection OF q building worthy of the
size and Importance of the city and ca
pable of accommodating its fast-growing
business for a number of years to come.
Mr.. McEwan means well. No doubt he
would like to make his campaign for re-
election On the basis of this appropria-
tfon. But We regard is as very doubtful
whether he will rave the satisfaction Of
