TDK Boston Advertiser thinka that the
BEG that "Be

cation of the homo of the feeble-minded

SECRETARY MAY , of the democratic
atita central committee , has engaged a
spaclal freight train to transport to the
place of meotiog oil the 19th , the appli
cations for office that have been filed
with him.
THE announcement that poatago stamps
- rlll bo received in payment of subscrip
tions may bo taken as conclusive evidence
that Ex-Postmaster General Hatton has
returned to his old editorial stamping
ground in the Burlington Uawkeyc
office. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
THE Boston Globe , In commenting on
the "Backbone" affair , nays : "If ho did
nothing wrong during his adminis
tration of the department of thc
>
Interior , ex-Secretary Teller , instead
of being angry with Senatoi
Van Wyok for offering that resolution
of inquiry as to patent ] recently issued tc
southern railroads , should cheerfully ac
quiesce. No public officer should fear to
have his books and accounts overhauled
at any time. "
PRESIDENT CLEVELAND has assured the
terltorial delegation , who called on bin
to inquire what conrao ho Intended tc
pursue in regard to territorial appoint
ments , that ho would appoint to office
none but the residents of the territories
and that ho would not pay any attcntloi
to the pressure of outside partiea whi
anight wish to dictate as ta"who shall fil
the gubernatorial chairs. The posltloi
of the 'president on ih'a matter is eml
nontly correct.and will prove sitiofictorj
to the residents of the territories who wil
not hereafter bo ruled by carpet-baggers
DESPITE assurances to the contrary , 1
Is hinted In certain engineering quaiter
that the foundations of the Washlogtoi
monument are insufficient and that th
monument will bo likely to fall If the
are not soou attended to. The Soicntifl
American , in referring to this report
says that the condition of the foundation
forms a good subject for examination am
and discussion , and It trusts that It wil
receive attention by the most compotcn
.judges. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
So PAH , according to Dorman B. Eaton
president of the civil service commieslorj
vacancies are bolng regularly filled undo
the roles , and there ia not tbo least alg
of examinations being arrested or th
rules being disregarded. He has 'no
heard of any partisan removals , and doc
not bollovo any such removals will I
made , This matter Is respectfully r <
forrcd for consideration to the Nebratk
state central democratlo distribution con
mlttoe , which moots on the 10th.
TUB plan of burying the bodies of an
mals which have died of contagious dli
c so Is declared to be unsafe , KB the dl
ease poison works Iti was through tl
soil and Infects other animals. Follow
Ing the experiments of M. Alme Gtrarc
it ia proposed to dissolve them In concet
trated sulphuric acid , which , while di
stroylng the body effectually di
atroys all dlseaao germs. This CM
lor the dumb creatures Is all very wol
but glvos rise to the question why the
should bo hotter guarded atairutlnfeotio ;
than human creatures. Year after yei
myriads of the victims of contagion ai
buried In the eatth , and the dlaeai
poison la loft to work Its way upward I
myriads of others , who In turn take the
places with the rest. Hermetically seale
burial boxes and private funerals or en
matlon would no doubt lessen tbo nun
bora ol this ghastly succession Wli
nhoald not some such measure be ot
forced ! It fa only fair to glvo ti'our fo
low-men tbo same attention we best ?
upon the boasts of the field.
A SENSIBLE STEP.
Last fall , shortly after the presidential
lection , como of the Now , York ropubli-
in clubs attempted to reject the appli
cations for membership of all men
who did not vote for Blaine or Logan ,
'ho ' "Blaino and Logan toil , " as it was
ailed , created considerable discussion , ai
well as ill-feeling , and wo believe that It
was not strictly enforced , but gradually
llowod to dlo a natural death , It becom *
ng evident that it would not do to refaaa
enforcements as It h votes that the
arty needs. It seems that the Union
jcagno club had also adopted the Blaine
nd Logan teat , and net long ago the
matter waa revived by the inquiry of the
ommlttoo on admissions If n certain np-
ilicant had attained his majority , and , if
o , how ho had voted at the last preii <
ontlal election. The gentleman who
ad proposed the name of the applicant
cpllcd that before answering any such
nqniry ho would llko to know by what
uthority the committee asked any such
nestlon , as according to the constitution
nd by-laws of the club the only teat of
candidate was abaoluto and unqualified
oyalty to the government of the United
States. As the quottlon of loyalty was
not an issno In the last presidential oloo-
ion , ho could not see the propriety cf the
nqulry. This controversy came up for
ottlomont at a meeting of the club last
week. A resolution to the effect that an
nquiryas to how a man voted is In con-
ravontlon of the secrecy of the ballot ,
nd calculated to destroy the indopsnd-
nee of the voters , that the committee
was wrong in making the demand , and
hat It bo instructed to omit such qnoi-
lens In the future , wai introduced , and
naturally there aroio an animated ills-
ussion ever it. The resolution ,
n a modified form , was final-
y adopted by qulto a largo
majority of the member ; , who were not
favor of prolonging the animosities of
do campaign. In the future , therefore ,
pplicants to the Union Leap-no club will
iot have to toll for whom they voted In
do last presidential election. If there
ro any other republican clubs In .Now
fork that continue to enforce the Blaine
ind Logan test it is high time that the ?
Irop it , and take in every respectable
voter who applies for membership. It
honld not be forgotten that there is to
10 another presidential election in 1888 ,
when we shallneed _ all the votes that can
> o obtained.
THE report that cholera has again bro-
cen out in Toulon Is a waining to the
American authorities to take early pro-
autltna against the invasion of the dread
liscaae.
ACCORDING to a writer in the Chicago
Tribune , who claims to be well posted ,
ho selection of Cleveland's cabinet was
he work of the Mannlng-Tlldcu combi
nation. Mr. Manning , who seems to
lave boon the chief manipulator , line
'or ' his advisors such mon as W. H. Bar-
num , Smith M. Weed , and W. L. Scott.
Now all this does not agree with the gen-
irally accepted belief that Manning ,
Cllden , and Weed were the warm sup-
lortcrs of Dr. George L. Miller for the
losltion of poBtmatter-generaL. Elthei
Manning and his ctowd played Dr.
filler false , or else the Tribune write :
s simply mistaken. It may just bo posal-
) lo that Manning , who ii an editor , came
to the conclusion that one editor in the
cabinet was enough , and he therefore
shnt Dr. Miller out.
THE Missouri democrats have rallloc
on masse at Washington In search of of
fice. Tholr demands at firat took in
nearly every first-class office within the
1ft of the president , and when attention
was Incidentally called by some ono tc
the monumental cheek of the Missou
rlans , they handed In 'a supplementa
list , which they claim is modestly reduced
ducod in view of Cleveland's Idea of clvi
service reform Besides those asked fo
before , they now want the commieslono
of agriculture , an assistant secretary estate
state , oommissloner of Internal revenue
governor of Washington territory , i
South American mission , consuls at Yi
onna , Hong Chow , Siam , and Ma tame
raj , attorney-general of Alaska ally sever
al places in the departments. The St
Louis Globe-Democrat made a gooi
gaots when It said some time ago tha
Missouri would bo tbo Ohio of domocrao ;
in the matter of office-seeking. That pa
per in commenting upon Missouri's ma
nia for office , says that under Hayes am
Gatfield the Ohio man wanted the earth
under Cleveland the Missouri man want
the whole planetary system. '
THE big strike ontho , Gould lines hai
ended and the men have returned t <
work. Upon the recommendation am
petition of the governor ! and railroai
commissioners of Missouri and Kansas
Vice-president Hayes , of the Mlssonr
Pacific and associated roads , has rostorec
the wages to the rates that prevailed Ii
September , 1834 , without projudlc
against any of the striking employes. I
has been a costly strike to the railroads
and a great Inconvenience to the public
Tno employes are to bs congratulate
upon their victory , as they only strut
against an unjust reduction. While I
may be trno that the roads are not earn
Ing as much as they were during tbo proa
porous times , It waa not reasonable t
force the employes , whoso wages wer
already barely sufficient to pay the !
actual living expenses , to share in th
doprcsilon which was caused to a grea
degree by the too extensive watering c
railroad stock. Tha trouble with th
Miisourl Pacific reduction , us It has beei
with most all others , was that It wa
begun at the wrong ond. We would sng
gast to tuggc'st to Jay Gould , if ho Is s
anxious to make up the losses on watira
itock , that he uow try a redaction in th
salaries of the high-priced officials , wh
are able to a'and ' a very reipostabla cut
TUB Mormons are beginning to see the
andwtiting on the wall. It is stated
t at the April conference to bo hold at
jogan , Utah , A proclamation will ba
asuod suspending the "dtvlno law of
olygumy , and directing the people to
bandon polygamous practices , In con-
'deration of this action the Mormans cx-
) oot a general amncs'y of past offrneop ,
nd it Is asserted that they will g'.vo par-
onal guarantees of good faith , It acorns
hat they have como to the conclusion
that It is cheaper to reform than It Is to
move.
CHANGE IN POSTAL RATES.
The poalofiica department at Washing-
on has received Inquiries from nll'quar-
ors as to the now legislation In the poat-
flico appropriation bill. It was not
poaalblo on account of the work done in
conference to ascertain what the changes
a to postage were until the bill had been
ifllclally printed. A certified copy of the
rill furnished by the state department ,
laa at last boon obtained from the gov-
rnmont printer. The changes In postal
rates , provided for In this bill , wlllgo into
effect on July 1st.
The weight of all single-rale letters ia
ncroased from one-half of ouncn each or
'motion thereof to ono ounce oich or
raotlon thereof. The same increase oi
weight is allowed for drop letters ,
whether mailed at stations where thorj
B a free delivery or where carrier service
s not established.
All newspapers sent from the office oi
publication , Including sample copies , or
when aon > from a news agency to actual
aubccrlbera thereto , or to other news
agents , shall bo entitled to transmission
at the rate of ono cent per pound or frac-
ion thereof , the postage to bo prepaid.
Dhis Is a reduction of one-half from ox-
sticg rates. Any article in a newspaper
or other publication may bo marked for
observation , oicept.by written or printed
words , without increase of postage.
A special stamp of the value of ten
cents may bo issued , which , when at-
ached to a letter , in addition to the law-
ul postage thereon , shall entitle the lot-
: or to immedlato delivery at any place
containing 4,000 population or ever , ac
cording to the federal census , within the
carrier limit of any free delivery office , oi
within ono mlle of tha post-office ot
any other poat-oQico coming within
; ho provisions of this law which
may , in like manner , bo designated as a
special delivery office , that such specially
stamped letters shall bo delivered between
7 o'clock a. m. and midnight ; that a book
shall bo provided in which the person tc
whom the letter Is addressed shall ac-
Kiiowlodgo its receipt : that meoaengorE
'or this special delivery are to be paid 8G
per cent of 'the face value of all the
stamps received and recorded in a month ,
provided that the aggregate compensation
paid to any ono person for such service
shall not exceed $30 per mnnth , and pro
vided fnither that the regulations for the
delivery of these specially stamped let
ters shall In no way interfere with the
prompt delivery of letters as provided
by existing law or regulations.
The ten-cent stamp delivery Is an ex
pertinent , and we believe that it will
prove a success. In Omaha for instance ,
letter arriving on the fast mail In the
evening from the east , or upon any othei
train after the regular delivery trips have
ceased , will bo delivered before midnlghl
If it has this special stamp , which as t
rule will Indicate that the letter is 1m' '
portant. This system will undoubtedly
bo appreciated by our business men ,
many of whom do not close their store :
or offices befoio 0 p. m , , by which houi
every specially-stamped letter can b <
delivered. Now all letters arriving or
the evening train remain over night Ir
the pcstoflioe. This now arrangemcn
ll necessarily require the immodlati
opening and examination of the oveninj
mails in order to select the specially
stamped lottera so that they can be delivered
livered at onca.
A FEW days ago a congressman callei

Thereupon ho Invited the congressman t

ambitious to handle Undo Sam's mail

Of tbo Kmllroad Troubles ,

The strike of railroad employes ia a
yet confined to certain roads known a
the "Gould system , " and may therefor
be regarded as a local diiaffection. Bn
it must bo confessed that there is abund
ant opportunity for it to spread. Th
railroads of the country have been mad
to feel the general depression In trade
and have naturally sought to curtail Ii
every way their expense * . Unfortunately
when ihey undertake to do this the ;
almost Invariably begin at the wrong end
and the first out Is made In the wages o
their employes. The theory of railroai

that the railroad industry has been over

In accepting the nomination for gov
ernor of Maseachnsatts last fall I placet
myself on record as a chll-serv ce reform

made and of course I shall stand by It.
CABINET VIEWS
About Civil. * crvloo llcform.
[ Secretary of State Bayard. ]
I am on record on the subject of civll-
orvlco reform , and I don't proppto to
abandon the views I expressed during the
campaign now. 1 am heartily in favor of
ilvll-sorvlco reform , as are nil the moni
tors of the now administration so far as
. ' know.
[ Secretary oi the Navy Whitney ]
All of the administration Is commltod
lirough the now president to the clvlL
serelca llaw , and will doubtless coiula'
, cutly odboro to It. It is ono of the
easiest laws to evade , however , and muoli
will depend upon the construction placed
upon some of Us provisions after a cabinol
consultation which , as you know , we
lave not had. I bavo no doubt , however ,
, tmt It will bo a natural and unstralnod

and tbat iti spirit as well as letter will b (

view of the matter. For while ( he

; heir power to hire out tholr labor thoj
may look for aomo remedy by which tin
hat conaoquoncBS of stock jobbery and
speculation will not bo visited upon
; iioin. These recent strikes are but uur
'aco indications of a fundamental error In
our railroad system. Should the trade
depression continue , these difference :
will increase , and It Is easy to predict the
course of events a general cutting down
n wages , cut-throat competition foi
traffic , a decrease and final disappearance
of dividends , a default in interest , a ro <
celvorahip , a foreclosure , and a final re'
organization under now direction and
now conditions. The remedy is either an
application of bnsinets principles to rail
road management or a revival in trade.
[ Attorney-General Garland ]
I am committed to civil-service reform
as a member of President Cleveland's
cabinet. The president's letter of accept

WASHINGTON , D.O. , March 10 , 1885-
I have no adjectives to waste upon thi
now political era just dawned upon us
That Bomethlng startling has happonec
to shako the weak nerves of one Btalwar
republicans is evident , and well may the ;
rob tholr sleepy eyes and wonder how 1
all happened. Something will contlnui
to happen to call forth censure or pralai
for months to come. Already I hca
prominent democrats grumbling over BO
lections made for high office. "Thi
great unwashed" must bo taken care o
or they'Jibe a sort of cholera palltica
when hot weather comes. It ia fortnnati
that our new president ia a

Donald 1 a man beloved by all whi

Voorhees and a Mice-president in thi
United States senate , and it might strik
the "solid south" that is quite onougl
for one state. Ono thing is sure , tin
"toll Sycamore of Iho Wabash" carries i
mighty force with him as a democrat !
leader of the senate , as well as being i
political god in hla own state. They al
expected a place In tbo cabinet fo
"Uncle Joe , " and knowing that he ho

g&vel in hind , watching the frisk ;

jodgo of our vlca-prosldent's skill In pre
tiding over the senate now , and I bav
no criticism to offer or to repeat , for , o
coune , ono hears all sorts of comments Ii

appeared beaming with pleasure and hap-
} lness on that great day when her bus-
jand was belli ; ; sworn In , and why
shouldn't she ? Of cornea all OVGJ , and

s.\t in the gallery opposite of the chair ,

She Is n largo woman a "stout" woman ,
evidently enjoying good health , nnd I
navon't the least doubt she understands
how to manage that husband of hers , thai
[ s If he requires managing. Some hus
bands don't , they mam go thomsolvoi.
She wai dressed qulto consplcuoutly , rod
bolng the favorite color on her bcnnot
and carrying a largo red fan which she
very mojost'cully ' waved. At the inaugu

was no place to show off fine clothes or
fine people. Twenty thousand pcoplo
packed into ono building must stand
pretty close to each other. Members ol
my family who attended , come home
looking rather wiltcel nnd did much
grumbling nbout the way some thing ;
weio arranged. But bo it romomberct
that the managers of that ball bnd n big
thing on their hands and it has boennlorj
time einco-they had an entertainment o
that kind t wont jr-iiyo years or more , one
men will get rtuty in that time unless
kept in practice. I btlievo Preslden

very uncbarltablo to expect our goje

another realtor , and he couldn't bo look

it IB evident ho don't like bills , for ho
slid out of that hot crush just ni sson as

ODK NEW PRESIDENT
pleases me wonderfully so far. I am nol
going to guah over him yet. I don'
want to say anything I shall.havc to take
back either for or against him. My firs
sight of him was aa ho entered the eenato
chamber. Of course every eye was cen
tered upon him , a fact ho was keenly
alive to , yet his faoo was palo and 1m
moveable as marble and still a tromon
dons intensity of exproseion in every
inch of the man which spoke volumes
The storm of grtetlng which went out to
receive him waa something louder than '
have over heard in that old solemn ctam
her ; a volume of sound only equaled by
the applause which greeted the announcement
mont of.tho retirement of General Grant
and , by the way , there was much in
President Cleveland's manner to
remind mo of General Grant. Am
It was well for the republican
administration tint it died with Genera
Grant's name on its lips , and well for
America's honor that justice was at las
done that r.oblo old genera ] , and I am
proud that lowa'a son in congress , Mr
Wilson , was willing to bo sacrificed In
yielding his seat , or contest for it , in the
house , that the bill for retiring Uenora
Grant might bo considered. But I wa
speaking cf President Olovehnd and
must stick to my text. Again , I res pee
and like our now president , and if I hav <
the viiion of the future clearly , I roac
that ho will make a satisfactory execatin
in the white house. He has a oplondk
physique , looks as solid as a granite roctr
a perfect figure. Not eo tall aa Mr
Arthur , but larger , and yet not a fa1
man. His black suit , with Piinco Alber
coat fitted him to perfection : rather an
old fashioned collar , high dicky , llko the
one Senator Voorhees wears. Ho isqo
so graceful as Mr. Arthur , ( imply bickeu
around with the least possible bob of hi
head , and neither did ho break his necl
bowing to the crowd on his way to the
white house. He doesn't strike mo as a
man and follow country man who will bo
much affected with "Washington mi-
larla. " Heaven forbid 1 Should ho re
slit that , I'll aik him for his autograph
a favor I novcr naked but once and thui
it was purely a csso of "love at firs
sight. " I'll BOO you laterl CON.
