It was ourrontly reported that John sou dosirod tho nomination of Monett aa attornoy gonoral and that tho Mo fjoan mon wanted Monott defeated.

WAR STAMP ON BONDS. 4 .II It Falls Hard on Rural Froe Delivery ' Mail Carriors A spooial from Washington Friday says. An indignant and vigorous pro tool has boon made to tho Postmaster General beoauso of tho hoavy intornal revenue tax loviod upon overy now ap pointee in tho rural froo dolivory oar ricr ecrvioo. It appears that in tho establishment of a now route tho oar rid i' appointed is rc qui j od to furnish bond and said bond m ut bo f reightod with 50 couts worth ol intornal rovonuo stampf). Soino of tho viotims do not hesitato to oharaoterV.o tho imposition of, this heavy and onerous tax as a bunco gamo on tho part of Unolo Sam This hoavy and apparently unjust tax is levied under the terms of ibo war royds uo measure. Although tho amount seem., small it. is unjust to tax a' poorly p*id official liko a rural dolivory carrier fifty oents for his appointment, when all of tho othor salaried officials of tho Government, from tho President down, aro exempt from a rovonuo lax in con sideration for thoir commissions and a placo on tho Govornmont pay-roll. As Ibo salary of thoBO rural oarriors in only $500 por annum tho tax is a hardship, but when, ns is tho oaso in mjfny instauoes, tho proposed route hangs tiro in tho dopartraont and is in definitely shelved, it is adding insult to injury. Tho would-bo oarrior has paid oily hts fifty oontu, but ho novor re ?oives ono cont of pay. Mf. ll. Corqucst Clark, tho thief spacial agent in charge of tho rural freo dolivory sorvioo, said Friday: "It BO tun H to mo a groat hardship for tho H o mon to bo forood to pay this tax. As tho routes aro almost, if not ontiroly laid out in tho farming distriots, mon ojfjyoiy limited oiroumsta .oos aro usual ly^appointod as oarriors. To them t ?hl% half dollar moans a great deal.

Auothor important ohango has oo our<;d botwoon tho Russian govornmont and tho Unitod Statos rotativo to tho thrift. Tho Russian minister of finanoo M.

To this Beoro tary Gago has ropliod that tho off or of tho Russian govornmont cannot bo no ce ptod as tho question of tho sugar differential is now in tho hands of tho oourt. thus precluding notion by tho exeoutive branoh. Tho proportion of tho Kassian min istor of finance was tho result of Soorotary Hay's noto of ^bout two wouks ago. In that noto Mr. Hay pointed out that tho aotion takon a) lo j o trole um was not now, nor was it meant to havo any oonnootion with Ibo previous aotion of tho govornmont on sugar. Thia appoara to havo recon ciled Russian ofti nala in thoir view that tho pnotroloum ordor was only an othor stop in tho polioy previously takon roBpooting sugar. M. DuWttto's rospoiuo is not long, but it is quito to tho point. It makes no further iseuo as to tho petroloum ordor. Tho ohiof attention is given to sugar and tho apcoifio ordor is made to vaoato immediately tho inoroasod du t?os which Russia has loviod, if tho Unitod Btatos will vaoato its action on sugar. This would amount to ro ostabliahing tho status quo which ox isted bofore tho United Statos took its initial aotion rolativo to Russia.
