CHICAGO, Oct. %. A Washington
special says: Information has been re-

serious difficulty that the experimental
| government there has had to encounter.
There are limitations that the Presi-
dent will take very decided position in

These rumors have their origin from
sources friendly to the Cuban insurgents.
The Comptroller of Currency in his

Secretary Chandler left tonight for
Michigan without making any changes in
the Interior Department. 1t is certain
that a considerable number of Demo-
cratic clerks will be removed. There are
in the Patent Office aud Pension Bureau
many clerks resident mostly in the Dis
trict who have led the opposition to the
payment of the political assessment
levied by the Congressional Committee.
There is prospect that the Indian SER
vice will be turned over to the War De-
} partment. When Chandler was in the
Senate he advocated such change in
more than one speech. Heretofore any
, movement to this end was resisted by
Delano and Smith. Now that they ave
been succeeded by warrior who is toe
rich to desire to rob the Indians, army
influence will be exerted to induce To,

Evidence of American Enterpr Use.

Living before us is pile Of circulars
from all parts OF the Union and with d.
versity of character forming ludicrous
medley. The announcement OF the sew
er,l seuders' wares through the advertis-
ing columns of daily Journal seems to
be the desideratum and a concerted
scheme between the publisher and the
vendor the modus operandi Of the
procedure. A Philadelphia chrome
dealer will send a magnificent BIRDS
eve view Of the city" for and editorial
puff: New York music dealer will, on
insertion of an enclosed notice send US
"ehoice assortment of new and beautiful
SONGS +" Among the catalogue we note
" The Pirates serenade and widow
Nachree " which are both new and beau
tiful and worthy of re-echoing through
the mountain canyons. A Maine genius
will send "the paragon swing for
suitable notice, and Connecticut man
will send "a full jeweled solid silver
| cosed thermometer for ten dollars
worth Of advertising. Another Philsdel-
| plla man mas JUST iSouse '"soh
| ism between science and Christian Re
Geiou" and on due announcement of
! the fac. we will be gladdened by its APP
pearance. and can while away leisure
hour in a perusal of its pages. For the
consideration of three local no.
tees a Tennesseean will send
a Quart of his celebrated preparation
delicious for food, making a pleasant
drink, good for poultry. substitute for
coffee and most dssightful sauce" If
he would in addition warrant it to keep
the flies out of the restaurant we might
possibly try little of this eighth wonder
OF the world. New Jersey organ
builder is willing to send US S275
organ provided we give him 1925 worth
of advertising. and tells US contidentially
he do Mt want less than an eght-stop
instrument to be in the hands of editors
at any price" That is right; anything
less than an organ that we could stop
eight times would, in our instance be q
sad failure. We are not quite sure il
we could manage even that, and have toe
much ditfidence to make the attempt. TIC
recount the patent medicines and vari
GUS nostrums asking for public recoRni
ton would be wearisome task. The
articles we have enumerated have, sc
, far, escaped our notice in any of on
contemporaries advertising columns ant
are consequently deemed fair subject!
