The McGregor Daily Age, wants t.
be classed with the Reformers,
but don't expose the radical robberies
going on about Washington, as it says
because we are too large headed
and large hearted, because we do not
believe that such a course would con-
duce either to our private gain Or the
public veal, that we do not lend our
voice to swell the volume of denuncia-
ton that is howled at the administra-
tion from the bawdy mouth of every
brazen-faced opposition politician in the
land"
Well, we suppose it is an insult that
the administration should be howled at
by the opposition. but then the admin
;stration has also been insulted by
radicals in the appointment of fifteen or
sixteen committees of investigation to
look into its wholesale stealings, and
these committees have developed facts
that cannot be ignored by knavcs, even
though they may be moderated by
blockheads who underestimate the in
telligence Of the people. The party
has been insulted by several Senators
of its own party and by score or two
Of its leading papers, admitting that
the present administration is the NEST
corrupt one that ever existed, and ad-
vocating reformation that shall eject
Grant and all the RoG-esons from the
White House. A better sign for the
Aye, if it regards truth as of import
ance than to put itself as favoring
Grant and reform at the same time,
would be simply this, embarrassing
done here for Grant & Co., as it will
conduee to our private gain.'

Senator Trumbull says the machinery

The Chicago News says the Radical
party has made itself drunken with
spells. It has indeed, and it is a mys-
terry which neither science nor philoso-
ply can fathom that it was not long
since dead of the delirium tremens.

The Chicago lnter-Ucean is INVITING
the reformers with being out of funds
to carry on their campaign. This is as
much as to say that while there is
money in the Treasury the administra-
ton party will use it to carry their
point. We agree with the Inter:

The Advisory Board of the Civil
Service having completed the grouping
contemplated by the rules already
adopted, have recommended certain
provisions for carrying the rules into
effect. The recommendations as pub
lished are approved, and the provisions
will be enforced as rapidly as the prop
or arrangements are made and the
thirteenth of the rules adopted CD the
10Th Of December last, is amended to
read as published.
The utmost fidelity and diligence

ment of the government or in private
life. Honesty and efficiency, not po-
litical activity, will determine the ten
