" How it Exposes Fraud and Cor ruption. We invite the papers that mourn so much over the deplorable loss the railway mall service has sustained in the removal of Messrs. Bye and Cole to look over the record now on file in the office of the chief head clerk. They will find they not only were not efficient clerks , but on the contrary were known as the poorest clerks in the service. Either ol them could have been removed upon their merits months ago. We defy any one to produce any testimony from the official records that would show that either of them were ca pable of efficient clerks. So ignor ant were they of the rules of tue service and tie discipline that Is en forced in all its branches , that they appealed from a special agent of the postofflce department to a justice ol the peace , and upon that charge they were both removed , and not for making charges against Messrs. Yost and Furay. We are will ing to give them the full credit for all they have done , but when it Is stated that they were distinguish ed for their ability in distributing the mail , it Is denied. While these men did not sustain their charges against Messrs. Yost and Furay , and could have been remov ed for that , yet they were re moved before the special agent's re port reached the department , upon a telegram sent by him demanding their removal on the ground that they had appealed from him to a Justice of the peace , thus insulting not only him but the postmaster general. "The above article appeared in Sat urday evening's Union , otherwise known as "Yost's Postal Card , " which accounts for the milk In the cocoanut. The article is a base lie , which is nothing strange hi an or gan purchased by the corrupt postal outfit No better evidence is wanted than the above , that this hypocritical sheet , whioh has so long been trying to hoodwink the down trodden workingmen , has sold out to bolster up a rapidly declining ring of fraud and corruption. This is a snare into which the "champi- on ( ? ) of workingmen , and the ex- poser of crime , fraud and corrup tion , " has been unwittingly drawn , and it has just discovered a little too late , that it has made a fatal mistake. The workingmen , both Democrats and Bepubilcans , denounce \ta \ course , which Is similar to the "doubler shuffllnc" of Charles E. Parcell. The Union outfit can lay the blame for such an egregious blunder upon their chief Modoo , who imagines himself endowed with a superabun dance of strategic cunning and prophetic foresight. He's a cun ning cuss , but he will find that his ambition has overleaped itself this time. The Union' * talk about championing the cause of the work ingmen Is all bosh always -was and ever will be. The outfit Is on the make money talks with thpfn gnd tie } corrupt politicians of the postal ring have a * little more money than the worklngmeu to squander on an "organ. " The specific charge that Messrs. Bye and Cole were known as the poorest clerks on the road , is a ma licious falsehood , and the very re cords , to whjch the Union refers , will prove it to be a lie. Besides this , the following letters of endorse ment for'Bye , will further show that he wat considered one of the very best clerks on the road : OMAHA , NEB. , May 19. To whom U may concern : The bearer hereof , F. R. Bye , Esq. , has been for over three years ( and Is yet ) connected with the Pos tal Service at this point , as a R. P. O. clerk between Omaha , Neb. , and Ogden , Utah , during all of which time I have been acquainted with him ; and I take pleasure in commending him to all as a deserv ing and trusty man. During his connection with the Postal Service , he has performed , his duty honestly , diligently , faithfully - fully and well , which la all that could be done. Very Respectfully , JOHN B. FURAY , Spec'l Agent , P. O. Dep'l. RAILWAY MAIL SERVICE , ) OMAHA , May 27,1873. / DEAR SIR : Mr. F. R. Bye has served faithfully , honorably and 2fllciently , as a route egont and pos tal clerk on the linion Pacific Rail- oad for the past four years , and has proven himself worthy of every rust reposed upon him. Mr. Bye's close attention to busi- less , and gentlemanly demeanor , luring all this time , has justly won or him the esteem and best wishes if a host of the best citizens of ) maha. Respectfully , LEW. W. HILL , per B. C. H. C. It is a well known fact In the linda of the general publb that tye sustained his charges against rest , and special agent Haw- ty distinctly said to a srtain gentleman , that Bye ad proven the majority of the larges , some of which were very : rious , and if acted on by the de- 21 irtment , would probably remove [ r. Yost The reason that Bye had deposl- ons taken before a Justice of the eace , was because Hawley did not ke down a word of the evidence i writing ; but .on the contrary dc ade a whitewashing farce of the hole Investigation. The idea of 10 suiting Hawley Is ridiculous it ould be impossible under the cir- imstances , as by his calcimining b he Insulted nine-tenths of this telligent community.

Jackson , Nebraska , was the scene yesterday of a shooting affray , which has doubtles ere this resulted in murder. The facts , as near as we can learn , are as follows : The parties engaged in the affair were James A. Tracy and Edward Mc Donald. There has been an old feud existing between the parties of two or three years' standing , occa sioned by a dispute as to the owner ship of a piece of property at the above place , where they both re side. Two or three lawsuits have resulted from the quarrel , and the feeling has been very bitter between them. Tracy had forbidden McDon ald from cutting hay on the piece of laud in question , and McDonald has from time to time annoyed Tracy in various ways , by tearing up his fences and committing other trespasses. Yesterday morning McDonald bitched his team to a mowing machine and drove on to the land and commenced cutting hay. Tracy ordered him off , and no attention being paid to his re quest , went into his house , came out with a loaded gun and deliber ately fired at McDonald , the charge passing through his body. Tracy , after Jlring the shot , immediately fled. Officers are in pursuit. The opinion is that McDonald cannot possibly recover. Sioux Oily Jour nal. TYPE FOR SALE ! .
