POLITICAL RIGHTS
Postoflice Employees Will BE A.

Assert Them.
The Manner of Doing So May,
However, Make Considerable
Difference.
MI. Heath Writes Mont Commit.
tai Letter to Postmaster
Gordon.

CHICAGO. Feb. S.-Postmaster Cor.
don received a letter from First Assist.
ant Postmaster General Heath in re.
gard to what action employees Of the
postal service would be allowed to take
IN political questions. The communi.
cation stated that the department had
no special rule in such matters, and
that they preferred not to make
any. Mr.. Heath said, however,
that there could be no objection to
the employees asserting their political
rights, but that there might be an OBJ
lection to the ann In which these
rights were asserted. He stated that it
was the object Of the department to do
everything possible for the good of the
department, and that nothing would
be done to hinder the carrying out OF
that object. Some time ago., John l.
Manning, president of the Union Vet.
eran club, addressed a communication
to Postmaster Gordon, asking what
liberties the employees would be allowed
in political affairs. The postmaster re.
ferred the matter to the department at
Washington.

Phenomena Of Sensation.

We refer sensation at once to its
source in the tinger-sips or the ear or
the nose. or wherever II may be. and so
expert have we become in recognizing
the source that we localize the sensa-
tion itself there. thinking of the sensa-
ton of touch as being in The kin of
the finger instead OF in the brain. where
it actually is. Hence he who has lost
a finger. refers directly TO the absent
member any irritation Of the nerve that
formerly connected with it. and can
scarcely believe that il is not in its old
place. This phenomenon is familiar
enough and many'are the superstitions
which il has given rise.

THE NAVAL BATTLES OF MANI
 LA AND SANTIAGO.

"Twas fsmousevictory, the naval battle at Santiago, and the officers and men of the American fleet are all entitled to share in the glory. The sortic of Csrvera's ships was so sudden that no time was given our command CTS for consultation or to plan the at tack. Moments were precious and each American commander had to act quickly and rely upon his own iudg- ment. The splendid work done dem onstrated the high ability of every one of them and proved conclusively the superior skill of the American gunuers. Commodore Sampson is none the less entitled to credit, because absent at so inopportune a moment, in the line of duty. As pursuers the American vessels had a distinct advantage over the fleeing Spaniards, after the battle had fairly opened.
 It is but natural to draw a compari. son between Dewey's superb feat in Manila bay and the complete victory of Sehley's vessels at Santiago The lat ter had more important bearing upon the final result of the war for the req son that had Cervsra made good his escape his fleet would have been se- rious menace to us, with the possibility of infiicting tsn.fold greater injury than Montejo could have possibly done in the Pacific.
 Nevertheless, we believe that history will place Dewey's exploit in advance of Schley's achievement at Santiago, for reasons some of which have been suggested and others which are obvious. Dewey's attack was master stroke of gsheralship, carefully planned and brilliantly executed. It disclosed the genius of the man, and will live in his tory as one of the greatest naval victo- ries ever achieved and that against great odds, and without tho loss of single man. Still there is no dispcsi ton to detrsct from the splendid sue. Cess of our fleet in the Caribbean.
 Great Is the American navy
