Postmaster General Burleson, when a

The postmaster general replied that
ne had not gotten around to the rail-

In all probability. be put into effect.
Garfield fid"sda has ba been ga railway uifrx; mail
clerk for IS years, and was formerly
president of the Railway Mail Clerks
association. Mr.. Burleson asked con-
cerning his qualifications, and then
announced his purpose to effect a re-
organization at an early date.
1t is we'll known that the influence
OF a great majority of the 1850 rail-
way mail clerks throughout the coun-
try was thrown to the democratic par
ty in the last campaign. Promises
were held out to the men that the
conditions would be improved, and 1t
