COMMONWEALTH House Committee on
appropriations are still looking in every direc-
ton to administer blow with the economic
axe. This morning all Of the auditors of the
Treasury department and the Commissioner of
customs were heard with reference to the pres
ent condition of the work in their respective
bureaus; the clerical force employed, and how
II compares with the numbers employed prior to
the war. Most Of these officials took the ground
That TO reduce the clerical force OF their offices
would tend TO destroy the efficiency of the pub
lie service. Judge Martin, sixth auditor OF the
treasury, indicated that, in view of the in
crease OF business pertaining to his bureau, he
would be constrained at an early day to recon-
clerks.

A
JoRIrIEs.-Mr. Davenport, q United sta,ss
Commissioner for the city of New York, was
heard by the House Judiciary COMMITTEES to-
day in advocacy of q bill recently introduced
in the House looking to Q reform in the registra-
ton OF voters and natur ali ration of foreigners
he made the alarming statement as an argu-
ment In favor of reform that by virtue Of his
orhc1al position, he has come into possession OF
the fact that In 1865, just prior to cleo ton,
two courts in the city OF New York in thirteen
days issued naturalization papers for 81 900 ap-
pheants which were duly recorded; that in ad-
ditlon 10 these q 600 were naturalized the ma
jority Of whom voted that cannot be traced, a.
no record was kept. The blanks for this latter
number went into the courts, but no record
thereof was made. He held that the law was
TOO general In regard 10 the subject Of natural
izefion as II now exists, and advocated strict
safefuards for the protection Of the people,
ana the mandatory keeping Of such records az
OF court Of record In the issuance OF natural
tyatiop papers.

Time is MONEY.

This old-timed axiom is aptly illustrs'
ted in the use of DooLEY's YEAST Pow
DER. 1t is well known that the common
process of raising; dough is slow one,
and often attended with unfavorable
results from the use of poor bakers
yeast and improper heat. With DooLEY s
YEAST POWDER the best of rolls, biscuits,
corn.cakes, ETC., can be made in the short
space of ten minutes, and uniform
success will certainly attend its use.
This is owing to its purity, strength, aud
the care with which it is manufactured.

THE CITY REGISTERS.
The Old List of APpOintees Gives
Place 10 tne New,

EAUCC W enO NcWs
Some nights since the Mayor an
nounced to the Board of Aldermen his
list of appointments fer Registers to
register voters in each of the wards, in
view Of the January municipal election.
The names selected by the Mayor were
as follows: First ward, James Powers;
Second, Walter Burke; Third d. T.
Nooe; Fourth, Thomas Casey; Fifth,
Thomas W. O'Donnell; Sixth, James
Gallagher; Seventh, Thomas F. Tobin +;
Eighth, Patrick Walsh; Ninth, Thomas
Il. Clark; Tenth, Michael Dea.
The LEDGER opposed these appoint
ments, and in so doing represented and
reflected public opinion. A few of the
nominated would probably be acceptable,
but when they were sandwiched with
persons who possess not the confidence
Of the people the entire list had to be
opposed, and the Mayor compelled to
send in a more respectable list
Since the original appointees are
beaten it is unnecessary for the LEDGER
to comment on the persons who were
sought to be foisted on the public SO as
to control the January election. Last
night when the Board of Aldermen met
the Register matter was called up. The
Mayor sent in message stating the de-
clination of Mr.. j. F. Tobin, Of the
Seventh ward, and substituting the name
Of John johnson. On the vote being
taken all but two OF the Mayors nomi-
nations were rejected. These we're John
johnson for the Seventh ward and Jas.
Gallagher for the Sixth When some of
the names were read it caused derisive
laughter around the Board and outside
of the railing. The Board in order TO
settle the matter went into secret
caucus with the Councilmen and Mayor.
After an hours labor the doors were
flung open to the people, and the follow
ing list of nominations was read and
concurred in unanimously by the Alder
men: First ward, John D. Handwerker;
Second, D. F. Go odyear; Third, Miles
Owen, ST.; Fourth, John Ringwald;
Fifth, J. NJ. Walker; Eighth, n B. Holt;
Ninth, Columbus Jerome; Tenth, P.
Sloyne.
0, King Gauous how powerful thou
art and how few know how you manage
your domestic affairs The list of regis
tiers is most satisfactory, and now the
LEDGER congratulates the people on the
fact that, SO far as registration is con-
cerned, it will be done honorably and
honestly.

Literary Notices

-"The CRUSADER" is the title of q little s.
page spicy weekly paper, published at Al West
26th Street, N. Y, in the interest of the great
temperance movement at 81 per year. 1t gives
Beecher, Crosby, and what it calls the rum
selling church, particular fits. The following
highly complimentary notice of Mrs. wilkins
lecture we take from it:
Mrs. Geo. wilkins, from Vermont, read. her
lecture on temperance, Saturday evening, in
the p%arlors Of the HGme of Health. Some of
the most critical observers were present, and
pronounced it the best lecture on temperance
they had ever heard. Plain, convincing, COM
mon sense arguments were brought cut in a
mastery style, with womanly tact and scholar
ly ability. We only wished that the whole
world might hear and ponder. But especially
did we wish that all who advocate indulgence
in a social glass nov and then might feel, as
the speaker felt, that they, by their influence,
are Turing to the verge of q frightful precipice
thousands who will not be able to bear the view
from its dizzy nights, but must inevitably be
dashed down upon the rocFs and among the
breakers in the fearful abyss below.
The Palladium, Hatch's new North
Troy paper. has made its appearance. 1t is
quite an improvement on the late Reporter. and
presents a good appearance. 1t starts off with
a meagre amount of advertising; but Hatch is a
worker and will make it success.
