Mr.. Brucs's work Is a remarkable IL
lusti alton OF thoroughness in separating
interesting historical facts bearing upon
one subject and illustrating one phase
OF the life and development OF a people
from a mass OF other equally interesting
historical facts. In his brief introduce

has confined himself very strictly 10 an
investigation of the economic conditions
alone OF the people Of the Colony. he
adds: Thus no references have been
made to printing in Virginia In the seven

books entered into the inventories Of the
planters estates, because such references

bricks were employed In the construction
OF church ediilces In that age has not
been touched upon at length In the de-

MaiI-Carrier Question.
|, Editor of the Dispatch

To the Editor OF the Dispatch:
Please answer the following questions.
to satisfy few readers Of your magnif-
cent paper:
Who is the responsible party to sub
contractor or mail-carrier OF star route.
the contractor or United States Post-Ofiice
Department. for his pay?
@ If the department send one draft, ana
II is lost, who would be the proper party
to address?
3. IL you should have TO bring sui. who
would be The propert party to sue?
Respectfully. j. u. 3.
The department is liable to and agrees
TO pay a contractor for mail service quar-
terly, at the rate named In his contract,
unless he sublets the route. and the sub
contract Is filed In that Office, In which
case the department pays the subcon-
tractor for the service at the rate speci-
fed In the subconract; provided. 1t Is
not in excess OF the contractors rate OF
pay; II it is in excess the subcoDtractor
must collect the excess from the con-
tractor. If no subcontract is filed In the
department, though one may have been
made, the subcontractor must look TO the
contractor for ell Of his pay.
In cases where warrants have been lost
or destroyed. whether payable TO con-
tractor or subcontractor, the Auditor for
the Post-Ofice Department Will issue
duplicate warrants TO the person to whom
the original warrant was made payable
on his executing a bond OF indemnity. In
all such cases the Auditor for the Post
Office Department is the officer to whom
communications should be addressed.
The third question would seem to be
