Post Office Statistics.

Sentiment may find special interest
in the current report Of the post
master general, for we are celebrat-
ing the two hundredth anniversary
of the birth of Franklin, who was
deputy postmaster general Of the
British colonies in America. At the
time of Franklin's death, 1890, there
were rs post Offices in this country.
To-day there are $4,000. Then the
receipts were less than $4,000. Last
year they were $15O,OOOOOO.
The number of people employed by
the post Office department is nearly
300 ,000-equal to the working pop
ulation of a great city-and the num-
Der Of employees and of all agents and
means for distributing mail mounts
faster in proportion than the receipts.
The postmaster general touches on
many suggested Improvements, such
as the reduction Of certain rates of
postage, the parcels post and postal
savings repositories, but he recon-
mends that attention be paid not so
much to possible additions to the serv-
Ice as to the improvement of the kinds
Of service already established. The
principal change that he recommends
is the merging of third-class matter
unsealed printed matter-and Of
th-class-unsealed merchandise
into one class at one cent for two
ounces.-Youth's Companion.

Mr.. GREEN WENT TO WORK
Veteran Colored Laborer Knew His
Rights in the Situation and
Meant to Have Them.

In connection with any great mu-
nicipal improvement much interest al
ways attaches to the ceremony of lift
ing the first spadeful of earth, laying
the factory task Of putting in place the
final trowel of plaster and the last
brick. The new Virginia avenue and
the last part of the Pennsylvania rail-
roads share in the project for the
elimination of a grade crossings with
in the city, was completed a short
time ago, and the formal finishing
touch to the contract fell to the lot of
Mr. Green a veteran colOred iaborer.
Mr. Green is a character known by
every foreman for the big contract
ing firm, and he assumed the task OF
putting in the last brick of the tunnel
as though it was his by right.
Mr.. Green, so the story runs, came
into the work on the Virginia avenue
tunnel in a truly characteristic way.
1t seems that Johnathan Wainwright,
Jr., son of the president Of the COM
pany was in active supervision of the
work, and he did not know Mr.. Green.
One day the latter appeared at the
office and to Mr.. Wainwright said:
Say, boss, where's my room? Use
come to WORK
What" replied the superintendent,
fairly taken aback by the aged labor
er's statement.
"Where is l goin to sleep, and
where's my tools?" the colored man
continued unabashed.
Get out" Mr.. Wainwright an
swered, more than half angry at the
seeming imprudence, 81 have no place
for you. We don't need any more
men"
GO on, now, young man, knowed
your father and mother long befo' you
was born and if you don't find a place
TO- me right away I'll have you dis
charged You just run along and find
me a bed and I'm goin' to work"
And Mr. Green went to work, and
that he stayed to the finish is obvious
from the statement that he laid the
last brick-Washingt Star.

IT CAN'T BE FAIR.

Last week the Roanoke Times pub
lished with heavy headlines the commu.
nication which Judge Williams address
ed to the editor of the Tazewell Repub-
hcan. The editor of this paper prompt
ly mailed to the Roaoke Times copy
of the article headed ''Not Disfranchis-
ed, But Delinquent, F" which we publish
ed last week in reply to the letter of
Judge Williams. We requested the
management of the Times to publish
our article, informing them that it was
a response to the letter of Judge Will
iams, and even going so far as to re-
quest that it be published as an adver-
tisement.
Instead of doing the fair thing, the
Times culled from our article certain
lines which it was pleased to head
"Tazewell Republican Explains" with
the intention, no doubt, of making its
readers think we are apologizing to
Judge Williams for disappearing
him; but the whole nature of our ar
ticle was clearly intended to show that
Judge Williams had been guilty of a
more serious charge than permitting
himself to be disfranchised, if that had
been done.
But the Times has not been fair or
honorable in its treatment of the Repub-
Icans of this district at any time, and
our friends told US when we mailed our
article to that paper that it would not
publish it. Therefore we were prepsr-
ed to hear that it had declined the pub
Ii ation, but we hardly expected the
Times to be guilty of the meaness it has
exhibited in culling from our article
such lines as it might use to our injury
and to publish those lines only.
The conduct of the Times has been so
unfair and unclean toward the Republi-
cans of this district that they have no
confidence in its integrity, and in the
future will show their contempt for it.

elaborate and the colors gaudy. In
spite of the gaudiness, however, it
was not of the comic variety, but
rather Of that kind which makes you
think of little angels and birds and

a Christmas card than a valentine.
What purported to be n verse was

BUSINESS of life and stated that all

The best treatment for indigestion
and troubles of the stomach is to rest
the stomach. 1t can be rested by star
walton or by the use Of good digestant
which will digest the food eaten, thus
taking the work off the stomach. At
the proper temperature, a single tea
spoonful of Kodol will wholly digest
8, 900 grains Of food. It relieves the pre-
sent annoyance, puts the stomach in
shape to satisfactorily perform its func-
lions. Good for Indigestion, sour sto-
mach, fiatulence, palpitation of the
heart and dyspepsia. Kodol is made in
strict conformity with the National
Pure Food and Drug Law. Sold by
