THE EVENING E_EVENING STAR. WASHINGTO) \ TH tthe act as passed does not agree, in the obnoxious feature referred to, with the imperfect printed ‘velope or wrapper. All that is left to be desired now is a liberal spirit on the part of the Depart- ‘8 disposition to split hairs, An attempt at this sort of usurpation by a subor- @inste occurred somewhat more than two years ago, When A. B., & resident of this city, wrote a to C. D.,a friend in New York, and ‘added to thé conventional superseription the ‘undrescored words: Please deliver as addressed. ‘The reason for this was that the postmaster at New ‘York bad been instructed to deliver all mail matter ‘WC. D. af his office, but in this special instance tt ‘was desired that the card should go directly to his dwelling-bouse, ‘The message written on the card was of the highest importance, but the card was ‘thrown out as unmailable, because something was ‘written on the stamp side besides the “address,” ‘The case was brought tothe attention of the as- ing to the law concerning postal-cards, there ‘could be no formal appeal from the decision of the postmaster, and hence no redress for the injured. parties, even to the extent of a rebuke. Such ineidents put discredit upon the whole service; and, as long as they are fable to occur, every person Who uses the mails must do so with fear and trembling, never knowing what petty stretches it tothe extent of making the depart- ment’s work a hindrance rather than a help to trolled by the company have resumed work. Others are said to be ready to begin, but waiting for a few more miners. All this may be merely a show made by the cor- poration for the purpose of hoodwinking the pub- lie a8 to the real situation, or it may be the sign of general reawakening of the mining industry in the idle district. Its character cannot be esti- ‘while, it isencouraging to see that the miners are ‘Rot disposed to press their cause by violent means. ‘So far they have conducted themselves with a moderation that will command respect. ‘Their chief hope of success lies in continuing this course, Any other would be sure to divorce from them all ‘the sympathy which they now have among fair- minded and law-abiding citizens, Tee Dorenesce, ‘WE ARE ON THE INSIDE, YOU ARE ON THE OUT- SIDE.
