A Mean Trick Foiled.
The fellow Fiedler, besides being a
consummate liar, proven so by scores of
affidavits, is capable of any small mean-
nest, The latest was his spite last week,
against the Centre Democrat, which he
threw out of the mails iu violation of his
oath as post-master at Bellefonte, be-
cause it bad a supplement enclosed ex-
posing the corruption of Mr. Quay!
Fiedler pronounced this “obscene” and
refused the paper its legal rights, declar-
ing falsely, that he had instructions from
post-master general Wanamaker for his
dirty act! This was a lie, like all that
appears in his Gazette, for Mr. Wanamas
ker on Friday telegraphed this whelp,
that the Centre Democrat and its supple~
ment had a legal right to go thro the
mails, and gave the ignoramons Fiedler
the sections of the law aod regulations
bearing upon it. This fellow has been
post master over a year, and is still igno-
rant of the post office laws! Had he
made inquiry of the Reporter we could
have told the low gutter snipe more pos-
tal lan in five minutes than he has
| learned since he is post master; only on
Friday last did he acquire his first
knowlege of postal law from the post
| office department, which had to run his
ose on it first. Mr Wanamaker should
now, in addition, telegraph this post
master that he must quit drinking whis-
ky or he will be dismissed, so decent fe-
males need notsmell his offensive breath
when at the delivery windows. This
wheip did this illegal act against the
Centre Democrat out of peity political
j#pite! For to our positive knowledge, in
[a former campaign he enclosed a whole
| sheet political supplement in the Gazette,
| which supplement was issued and prints
| ed by the Republican state committee.
Look at the hypocrisy!
Again, some two years ago this same
{ unprincipled whelp approved of, endorss
