Killer its fame is limited to no country, sect
or race, has never been equaled by any medi-
cine in Europe or America. 1t is sold by all
medicine dealers.

Mr.. TRUMBULL and other Democratic
orators, are almost daily declaring that the
reform of the civil service, as initiated and
thus far successfully carried out by Presi-
dent Grant, is a delusion and a snare.
They charge that merit and qualification
are no more test than they used to be I;
that political favoritism tells the story, etc.
The fact, so far as one department of the
government is concerned, is shown by the
following news paragraph, on the authority
of the New York Associated Press:
"As the post office department the board
OF examiners are engaged in an examina-
ton to fill six or seven vacancies in clerk
ships of class No. /. About sixty appli-
cants are to be examined, and as the rooms
at the disposal of the examiners will not
permit the examination of so many at one
time, few are examined every day until
all shall have had their turn. There has
been larger number of vacancies to fill
than usual for the same length of time.
Since the new system went into operation
it is in excellent working order. 1t results
in giving the department superior class
OF appontees. On ece,y occasion Mus far
the applicant passing the best examination
has been selected for appointment"
But the Greeleyites have an answer
ready for all such statements-at thoroughly
Greeleyish answer-and that is to brand
them as administration les" -.-. .r

ROCKET FIRING IN THE STREETS

ROCKET FIRING IN THE STREETS
We wish to call attention to the great
danger attendant upon firing. AL
most the only thing deserving of adverse
criticism in the procession last night was
the careless handling of the rockets. A
rocket is as dangerous missile as a rifle
ball. A horizontal discharge endangers
the life of every person within range. We
saw two rockets 60 off horizontally last
evening, but fortunately no one was
injured, though several persons had mar
row escape from death, or serious wounds
We have known two deaths, and several
severe injuries from rockets, in our own
circle of acquaintance; and while the
matter is fresh in our minds, and our own
party is under censure for carelessness in
this matter, we suggest some action of the
Common Council forbidding the discharge
of rockets and all dangerous pyrotechnies,
except from appointed stations and in the
hands of licensed managers. This will
certainly save some precious lives that we
shall otherwise have to mourn.

CIVIL SERVICE REFORM.

The Enquirer is not so enthusiastic over
the subject of civil service reform-such as
may be expected in the event of Mr..
Greeley's election-as some Of its more
confident associates in the Liberal Re-
publican" ranks. 1t swallowed Greeley
hard, and made up many wry faces in do
ing it. 1t was bitter pill, but it had to
be taken, since the exigencies of the
patient demanded it. Anything to beat
Grant," was a programme that found little
favor in the Enquirer sanctum /; it was the
outdoor pressure that made the thing Ego
down" in that quarter. What our contem-
porary says, therefore, may be considered
as having more weight than more impul-
sive policy would have givenit. 1t speaks the
words of soberness and reflection, and does
not go off, helter-skelter, on any tangential
prejudice. We entirely agree with most it
says to-day on the subject of civil service
reform. 1t expects no sudden and radically
healthlui change in the event of Mr.. Gree
ley's election. What General Grant has
done under system which had long been
in force, he will have to do, if he seeks any
effective remedy. Governmental systems
must be taken as they are found. We can
not wipe out what is old and begin anew !;
but must suggest reforms, weigh their pro-
bable effects, and adopt them gradually.
Procrustes is not the type of true states
man, as the history of all mad reformers
abundantly demonstrates. This the En-
guirer has the sense and philosophic fore
cast to perceive. Ess...a.
But here is what our neighbor says: Il
Mr.. Greeley has no doubt studied out
an excellent plan for carrying on the gov
eminent when he is elected and it may
appear very easily of enforcement to him
and the public deceived by its plausibilty
and the sef-evident superiority of its claims
over the old system, may be delighted with
its promises, and expect to see it establish
ed at once but when the great reformer
shall undertake to put his system in opera
ton, be will find that he has not calculated
the cost. He has not weighed the difficult
ties or foreseen the obstacles that will envi-
ron him and render it impracticable.
He will find worse hydra than
Hercules encountered, and as fast as
he cuts down one of its heads dozen
will spring up. This is the trouble
with all Reformers. They do not calculate
sufficiently the impedments to that first
step that costs" in the attempt to apply
their theories: nor do they sufficiently APP
preciate the stupendous nature of the work
they propose to themselves. 70 root out
the evils that have crept into our civil SER
vice is a task that would require the life
time of man as honest and wise as Mr..
Greeley-and he has but four short years
Why, he would scarcely have time in that
brief period to learn what they are, much
less remove them. And, then, he must
have the aid, counsel, and sincere sympathy
of the entire machinery of government
in the accomplishment of this great under
taking!

guson, the Senate very properly, I believed,
refused to confirm. Mr.. Greeley would
have filed the civil service with all the
worthless men in the country if had let
him but would not let him and that is
the trouble" ~ ~ q
Here is fearful, yet no doubt truthful,
indictment against Mr.. Greeley, which the
country should well weigh in the judgment
it is about to pronounce between the two
men. The Tribune cannot break the force
of it by any amount of invective or vitupe-
ration; nor by any attempt to belittle
General Grants craftsmanship in the minds
of the American people. Whatever else
the President may not understand, it can
not be alleged that he has not weighed Mr..
Greeley in the exact scales of public criti-

lT is the delight Of some Democrats to
say that the mission of the Republican
party Is ended, and that it ought to die.
But what of the Democratic party? No
party ever before gave such evidence that
its mission was ended as the Democratic
party did when it acknowledged that its
whole past was wrong, and when it came
to the Republican party for its candidate
and its platform. Our enemies thus de-
clare that our missionis not ended and that
theirs is.
