Really Dead.

According to the Madison Democrat,
which ought to be good authority on
the subject, the Democratic party is
really dead and "cremated." In the
last weekly issue of that paper we find
the following:
The New York World and the Gin
einnati Enquirer both earnestly advo-
cate the necessity of maintaining the
old Democratic name and organization.
They are opposed to having the party
liberalized, reformed, or re-organized
under new leadership. While these
two able journals agree SO we'll on this
subject they differ very widely as to
the principles of the party. The World
advocates a speedy resumption OF
specie payments; the Enquirer calls
for more shinplasters. The World
accuses the Enquirer of apostacy and
the Ilatter proceeds to read the
former out of the party. We sympa-
thize with the World in its attempts to
vindicate the memory of the dead.
The Democratic party with all its blum
ders and crimes, did nothing to merit
the deep disgrace the Enquirer now
seeks to heap upon its ashes.

Many persons are surprised that the
iron trade should be SO stagnant, but
there is a good reason therefor. Near
ly half the iron made in the United
States either went into railway bars or
in some Of thedifferent kinds of man
ufactured articles, which are used in
railway construction or in railway
equipments. After the panic of Sep
tember, 70, the demand on the part
OF railways was cut down as if chopped
on with knife.
The manufacture OF pig iron in the
United States In 1873 was reported to
be 10000 of tons, and though in
"a the railways bid continue to con-
sumo some iron, yet the demand was so
light that it was estimated that there
was a surplus of $4,000 tons on the
LIST of January "A, which ordinarily
would have gone into railway construct
ION. This amount must be used for
other purposes before there can be a
very brisk demad for iron, but its pres
ent lower price is gradually Undue
ing much larger consumption in Diff
ferent forms, and that increased con-
sumption is gradually working off the
surplus.

A Good Sign.

do not think that it is wise to place
those salaries at the lowest sum for
which the Offices will be taken. s'Poor

swindlers, and the honest, faithful la
borer is always worthy of his hire.
Public offices, therefore, should be al
equately paid, and fidelity and efficien.
cy should be the tenure of their po-
sitions. Such policy is the truest pub
lie economy. But they should be paid
openly, and there should be a fixed
legal salary not to be swollen in def
nitely by fees and moietes an end
less emoluments of every kind. The
salary of the Collector Of New York
is $4,000. 1t is not enough. Make it
enough, and abolish all fees or other
eceipts Of any kind whatever. Mr..
Woodford's bill makes this provision
1t permits no officer to receive any en-
olument except his legal salary, and il
prohibits the use. of public property
for private purposes, thus sweeping
away moieties and Perqu isites. Mr..
George +. Hoar'proposed an import
ant amendment, which Mr.. Woodford
accepted, prohibiting the private use
by public officers of the labor or ser
vices Of any person employed by the
United States. This is a gross abuse

Five Generations.

hopaDucans
Most of US would be content, locking
forward, to be insured Of life till the
birth of hegreat-grand child; so when we
lind i've generations living and moving
active about the world we conclude that
family to be especially favored.
Mrs. Amy Osman is in her S7th year:
her daughter, Mrs Isaac Lawrence, is in
her 9th year; her daughter Mrs. David
Lane, is in her 47th year; her daughter,
Mrs. N. L. James, is in her 9th year;
and her daughter Miss Eva. in her 7th
year. Here we have just twenty years
from mother to daughter. These parties
are enjoying life, and are known to many
people of this country. The husband of
each. excepting of Mrs, Osman. is also liv-
ing. Mrs. @. makes her home with Mr. and
Mrs. Lawrence, son-in-law and daughter,
on Bear Greek; Mr.. and Mrs. Lane have
recently removed from Bear Greek to New
Jersey; Mr., and Mrs. James live in this
village. All are harty, happy, and wide
awake,
Mrs. Lawrence was Mrs. Osman's only
child. Mrs. Osman is the happy grand
mother of eight children; the great grand
mother OF twenty three; and the great
gbreat-grandmother of two. Many years
being. yet apparently in store for her, the
number gof her household may not be pre-
dicted.
Added to the singular coincidence above
narrated is this: Mr.. Lawrence is in his
74th year; Mr.. Lane in his 54sa and Mr..
James in his 34th-thus making twenty
years from father-in- law to son.in-law in

THE Madison Journal has been in
vestigating the proceeding in the Calk-
ins claim, and finds that the commits
sioners appointed to inve stigatc the
matter--being Secretary Doyle, At
torney- General Sloan and State Treas
urer Kuehn-have found due him a
balance of $12, 5O5,s4. Computing
che interest on this sum from the time
ii became due, the commissioners
found that it amounted to y$5, 1883,
which makes the total amount $l9,-
4S1.42: The law, however, under
which this settlement was made limited
the amount to be paid to $4,000.
This sum has been paid. AS there is
q balance still due on the award Of the
commissioners, we may expect that the
claim will come up again at the next
Legislature. So far as we have dis
covered, the reform organ at Madison
has not yet announced the consumma-
tion Of this reform measure.

obstacle to the success of their conspi-
racy to violate the laws, in the form Of
the government of the United States.
Il ID suggested that if the st. Paul Road,
for example, should withdraw its trains,
the federal government would declare
it postal road, and put cars on for
the transportation of the mails. AS in
oident to this service, it would appear
to be quite competent for the govern
ment to transport at the same time
