THE DAILY BEE. E. BO3EWATER ; EDITOR PRESIDENT GARFIELD. DAVID DAVIS Is na relation to Chief Justice "Weight" SENATOR OONEUKO'S top knot IB twisted tighter than ever. THE disappointed cabinet makers can now devote their energies to news tlnkerings. GENERAL GABFIELD'S administra tion began in storm and will end in sunshine. * HAVING finished up the storm busi ness , Yennor Is now giving Hazen & quiet pointer on gales. WE mbs the usual democratic remarks - marks that the new president isn't.a man of strong convictions. THE veto of President Hayes on the funding bill was short and to the point At leist the'bankers think so. THE Inhabitants of the Transvaal are expert marksmen. The English now appreciate the efficacy of small bores. AKD now the rural exchanges have ceased to cepy the stereotyped remark about the new administration marchIng - Ing in and the old March-ing 4th. A DEMOCRATIC lobbyiit In Illinois Is named Buzzard. He frequents the legislature about appropriation time , because "where tho.carcass is , there the buzzards do most congregate. " ALL the prestige won by Hitchcock and through his literary bureau , couldn't dlepel the odor which hung about his record. Hence the failure of that cabinet appointment scheme. PRESIDENT GAKFIELD enters into of fice M the chief executive of a nation of 51,000,000 Inhabitants. He will retire , eight years hence from a gov ernment ruling over 65,000,000 of pee ple. THE state board of discrimination will be watched with close attention at their coming cession and the plausi ble arguments of railroad managers will not be accepted by the people as an excuse for another steal from the tax-payers of this state. CHARLES A. DANA , of the New York Sun , has lost his occupation , and the stereotyped "His fraudul- oncy , " will be melted up and cast Into type more befitting the presi dency of the United States. THE farmers in and about Middle- town , New York , have organized a company fet the purposa of selling milk. Its capital stock is $10,000 , in shares of $1 each. In the interests of consumers , it is to be hoped that they will refrain from watering their stock. v THE Milwaukee Republican thinks that the orthography of Joe Me dill , of the Chicago Tribune , would be a fatal objection to his appointment a8 Indian commissioner. It wouldn't dote to introduce the Medillian system of spelling among the Indians. THE monopolies are chuckling over the fact th'at freight rates will in some instances be advanced nnder the new railroad law. The people will have an opportunity to learn baforo two years are over , what freight rates are just and equitable and having provided that they shall ba uniform , they will next make them reasonable. THE railroad managers are likely to fail la the conspiracy which they are now orcanlzing to make the operation of the Doanc'rallro&d law at distaste ful as possible to the shippers of this state. Two years' trial may serve to show its defects , but the' corporations may ba certain that those defects will finally be remedied In the interest of the producers of { this state and not for the benefit of the monopolies. No greater evidence of the growing strength of the anti-monopoly move ment throughout the country is need ed than tha petitions which have poured into Washington protesting against the confirmation of Stanley Watthowa and Eliot F. Shepard. Shepard is a son-in-law of Yanderbilt and u district attorney would have the supervision of cases now pending against the Central railroad company for shirking taxes to the amount of ? 137,000. ENGLAND li becoming alarmed over the increased emigration to America. The London Standard after estim ating that during the past year Great Britain has presented this country with nearly $300,000,000 , laments .bitterly that the vast stream of emi gration cannot ba diverted to the colonies. "We m y need our bono and sinew yet , but the bold peasantry once destroyed cannot be supplied againv says the Standard In conclud ing its article on the subject. When Great Britain ceases making her country impossible for a bold and liberty peasantry to reside In , it will bo time enough for her journals to lament their departure. MB. FINK , the commissioner of the Eastern pool , is making the vain at tempt to proro that the railroads of the United Stales are paying less than fonr per cent , on tbo capital invested. Mr. Fink ingeniously brings in the thirty or forty roads partly built or abandoned which are paying no inter est on their capital , and thus reduces the overage on roads like the Union Pacific which is paying nearly forty per cent , on the actual money invested. A glance at the stock list ' gives the lie direct to Mr. Fink's im plied assertions that the majority of American raU roads are not p&ying heavy dividends on stocks watered to twice and three times their actual value. THE LTE ADMINISTRATION. The four years administration of Ex-president Hayes will over be classed as o-e cf the purest and best in the political history of the United States- . Entering the White House amid the trying circumstances of a dis puted electoral vote , enduring throughout his term of office the con stant and unwearying hostility ot an opposition who held control of the legislative branch of the government , and hampered in the execution of his policy by a factious antagonism in the ranks of his own party , the ex-presi dent has nevertheless left his impress for good upon our national politics and retires with a record of which no American need be ashamed. Four years ago , when the reins of government were given into the hands of Presidon Hayes , the csuntry was staggering under the effects of financial , commercial and in dustrial depression. A depreciated currency wasstill in circalation.eleven years after the clcie of tbe civil strife which called it into extstenca. Amer ican industry was producing but half its capacity , our mills and furnaces , forges and looms were working on re duced time. Our laborers imd mechanics - chanics were earning reduced wages and our merchants receiving reduced interest on their business investment. The late administration found the republican party disorganized and In ahopeless majority in the national con gress. The reckless extravagance of the preceding administration , corruption in public office and countless scandals among office holders some of which had stained tbo skirts of the outgoing members of the cabinet , the dishonett distribution of federal patronage as the reward of personal service to con gressmen and senators had created within the rante ot the patty an op posing element. It converted a three- foflrlhs republican majority in con gress to a helpless minority and alienated from the party thousands of its former supporters and a number of its founders. President Hayes enter ed upon the discharge of his duties by calling around him a body of advisors of high reputation , acknowledged ability and unquestioned integrity. Every branch of the public service has felt their influence for good. The nation at large owes a greater debt of gratitude to the late secretary of the traasury than it can ever repay. Re- jsumption of specie payments and financial , commercial and industrial stability have taken place since the dark days when the administration of President Hayes first cimc in power. The civil service has never presented a purer and cleaner record than dur ing the past fonr years and carping foreign criticism has bean forced in to a tone of outspoken praise when the subject of the govenment , the financial or industrial condition of the United States has been under its discussion. To his own party the late administration has been of equal ser vice. It found th ? republican party disorganized and weak from a drawn battle in which congress had been lost and the presidency hardly won. It leaves it once moro in control of the legislative branch of the national government , strong in the confidence of the people of the union and with a chief executive whose tenure of of- fioo cannot bo questioned ? It loaves It with a pirty from which the most corrupt of its leaders aud henchmen have been dethroned , with factional estrangement almost eradicated and with an executive fully in harmony with the best elements of republican ism. To the record made by the ad ministration of President Hayes more than to any one other cause was due the triumphant election of General Garfield , and the republican parly will ba indeed'ungrateful if they fail to recognize his jreit cervices in their behalf. That the late administration made serious mistakes cannot detract from the praise which is justly due it. Sad President Hayes and his cabi net accomplished nothing moro than resumption and the revival of Business which followed its operation , ilstory would not have neglected the recitrl of the event ta ono of the great eras in 'our national annals. But to .his must be added the remarkable funding operations of Secretary Sher man , the maintenance of peace j < t home _ and abroad , the elevation aud purifies * tion of the civil service in all its iranches. When these are taken into consideration , no fair and unbiassed citizen of the country will deny that .he late administration gave up the government , leaving behind them a re cord no less creditable to thcmselyes .ban honorable to the whole nation whose Interests for four years they watched and administered with abi lity , fidelity and spotless integrity. ALBERT FIKK fears the "dangerous temper" of the producing classes to wards the corporate enterprises of the country. Mr. Fink ought to know whereof he speaks. As commissioner ot the eastern pool which has raised and lowered the rates on produce with a reckless disregard of everything but ; he corporation coffers , Mr. Fink has. iad as much to do with exciting a just eeling of antagonism towards the railroads as any ono other railway subordinate in the country. GOVERNOR NANCE has vetoed Re- ) resentative Schick's bill which im- powered counties , precincts , villages , school districts , towns and cities to campromlse their indebtedness. Gov ernor Nance deserves commendation or this action. Honest debts should > e paid In full with honest money. Within a radius of sixty miles Las Yegas possesses Iron , coal , fire-clay , &old & , auriferous silver , copper , argen- ; uerous galena , miscaceous clay , pot ter s clay of superior quality , mica and silicate of magnesia. It strikes us that this is a ftir showing of undeveloped mineral resources. An Important discovery has been made on Taylor Hill , near Leadville. iron ore has been struck which is said to be true hematite , making the finest steel In the world.

Granite Basin mining district is ex- parienctng a heavy boom. Over $96- 000 In gold has been extracted during the last year from the quartz ledges. Eght hundred thousand tons , or nearly twenty-seven million bushels of wheat , are on storage in the grain centres of California , left over from the season of 1880.

At Santa Anna , a party of engineers are reported to ba making surveys.at the coal fields recently purchased by the Southern Pacific railroad compa ny , preparatory to sinking shafts.

The great Sutro tunnel , cut to re lieve the celebrated Comstock mines of the vast quantities of hot water which are encountered in them , af fords an outlet to 12,000 tons or about 3,000,000 gallons. The ruins of JTranktown present a melancholy picture. In the wide- waste left by the torrent's track there is nothing left but desolation , except ono white cottage , which , though it stood directly in the path of the flood , yvas unaccountably preserved unin jured.

Reflections on tlio Man in tne Moon. Chicago Times. "Are you the general passenger agent of this road. ' ' The inquirer was a young man who seemed terribly in earnest. His hair was long , his clothes shabby gen teel , and his remarks were addressed to the manager of one of our leading trunk lines. "Yes sir. What can I do for yon ?
