The Postal Frauds.
ON the New York Sun.

FROM the New York Sun.
The total number of citizens hold

the postal service OF the United States
IS somewhat more than one hundred
and sixty thousand.
The total number Of postofice en-
ployes listed and exhibited in the Pres
ldents memorandum accompanying the
brlstow report as seriously implicated
In wrongdoing is fourteen.
The total number Of grown men and
women in the United States outside Of
the Postoffice Department is probably
more than forty millions.
The total number of outsiders report-
ed to the President by Mr.. Bristow and
by the President listed as under indict-
ment for alleged completely in the Post
Office frauds is nineteen.
The relative insignihcance of the Of
Tenders, numerically considered. de-
tracts in no way from the force of Mr..
Roosevelts stern reprobation OF cor
ruption in official life. or from the
soundness of the general principles he
enunciates in regard to the exposure
OF wrong and the punishment OF the
guilty. The country is with Mr.. Roose-
Vet tnere. 1t wants the postofice SER
vice cleared OF rascals.. It desires the
conviction OF the guilty by due process

when convicted. We do not believe
that there exists in any part of the
land that dull public conscience" that
