THAT DECISION.
Justice to tho Hunt-worked Letter Cur.
rlers,
The Utter carriers that hard worked and
Toorly jiatd olass of Government officials
havo at last mured what It has taken lliem
a very long while "to obtain, that Is, simplo
justice. They have received from tho high
est tribunal In the land, the Supremo Court
of tho United State, a decision which says
that thoy were right In every Interpretation
they put ou tho eight-hour law of Congress,
ns it applied to them, nnd that tho officials of
tho Post OIHce Department, who used their
ovory endeavor to make tho law practically
nugatory, were wholly wrong. Tuo court
says that when a man la omplojod to work
clnht hours a day and his cmployors order
him to he ou hand at a certain tlruo to begin
his labor, that is the time when hi9 eight
hours commenco, no matter whethor tho
work ho is oxpoctod to porform Is ready for
him or not.
If tho work ho Is to perform is not ready
for him that is not his fault. Nor can ho ho
assigned to other work In tho meantime
Tho court says that the eight-hour law with
' tho letter carriers means just what it moans
with any other class of workmen either in
publio or privato business. It is a contract
that has but one Interpretation. It has been
tho policy of the officials of the Tost Ollice
Department to got away from aud around
this law in every way conceivable. This
oatno from a desire the; had to net extra
work out of tho oarriors without extra pay,
so as to keep down the oxpenses of tho De
p.irtment, and thus make a favorablo show
ing whou thoy weir, to Congress to ask foi
their auuual appropriations. It looks llko a
small matter, hut it meant a change of soT'
oral hundred thousand dollars.
Tho decision is of tho utmost importance
to every laboring man in tho country, as it
shows tho attltudo of the groatost court
our land on a question that is most vital to
them. Wo beliovo tho principal credit of
pushing the fight to tho finish is due to the
organization of letter carriers connected With
tho Philadelphia post ofilce.

horribly mutilated. The two were strangers
in the village and there wk nothing on
their persons to identify them.

Under tho Suite Bulos of tho Republican

the Itcpublican nominating convention must
l)u fixed for a time within two weeks of tho
State or National convention. It is therefore
quite certain that tho Republican primarios
aud convention of this year, in this county,
cannot bo held much If any before, tbo 1st of
August. These rules give amplo timo for a
canvass of all tho names presented, whother

In a lcctnro. in Philadelphia, the otlior

facts. Starting from tho White House, which
ho said was built by an Irishman after tho
fashion of a famous Irish mansion, ho con
tinned his tour across tho water to Queens
town : thenco to Cork, "God's own city," as
tho natives call it ; up tho river Leo, through
tho Klllarney region, showing Blarney
Castle, St. Ann's church, whero swing tho
sweet Shandon Bells, and all tho famous
scenes of Erin. Ono statement made by tho
General is interesting from a statistical point
of view. Thero was "only 4,800,000 Irish
men left in Ireland, for tho island had sent
over 5,000,000 of her sons and daughters to
America during tho past sixty years, and
those, with their descendants, formed at least
20,000,000 of America's present C5,000,000.of

Medical Testimony.
W. Thornton Parker, M. D., Recorder, As
sociation of Acting Assistant Surgeons of the
U. S. Army, writes :
"Salem, Mams., March 23, 1891
"When at Stuttgart, Germany, during the
winter of 1881-82, I was suffering from
severe attack of bronchitis, which seemed to
threaten pnoumouia. I met, at tho Hotel
Marquardt, Commander Beardslee, of tho
United Statos Navy. In. speaking of my
sickness, ho remarked, 'Doctor, you can cure
that chest trouble of yours by using an AH
cock's Porous Plaster.' 'That may bo true,
I answered, 'but where can I get tho plaster?
'Anywhero in tho civilized world, and surely
hero in Stuttgart. Whenever I have a cold,
ulways use ono and find relief.' I sent t the
drug store for tho plaster, and it did sll that
mv friend had promised. Ever slnco then I
havo used it whenover suffering from a cold.
nnd I have many times prescribed it fo:
patients.
"The Allcock's Plasters is tho best to bo
had, and has saved many from sovcro illness
aud undoubtedly, if used promptly, will savo
many valuable lives. Whenever one haj
sovore cold thoy should put on an Allcock's
pi titer as soon as possible. It should bo
placed across tho chest, the upper margin
just below tho neck; somo hot beef ton,
milk, will aid in the treatment.
"This is not a patent rcmody in the ob
jectionable sense of that term, but a standard
preparation of value. The Government
supplies for the U. S. Army and Indian
Hospital Stores contain Allcock's Plasters,
aud the 'medical profession ' throughout the
world are well aware of their reliability and
excellence. I shall always recommend it,
not only to break up oolds, but as useful in
allaying pains in the chest and In the back
It is a preparation worthy of general oonfi
ilenoe."
