The persistent and aggrayating
opportunities OF the ofice-begging
fraternity are beginning to wear up
on the Presidents patience, and task
his endurance. TO a western Sena-
tor, who called upon him the other
day, III the interest of an ex-Repre-
sentative from his State, who .sked
to be appointed to a prominent Of
fee, President Hayes is reported to
have made this renly: eyes, l know
him. He came here on the day of
my Inauguration. lie has been here
every day since, and hoi g day has
passed that he has not sent half a
dozen of his old Congressional asso-
ciates, more or less, to urge his ap-
pointment. That he understands
negging for an office is very certain,
bur l begin 10 doubt whether he can
be good for anything else" 1t is
scarcely necessary to add that the
Senator left with considerable siz
ed flea in his ear.

Who Should Rejoice,

A late ssue of the Dubuque Times
contains an able article on the sub
ject of civil service reform, the pur-
pose Of which seems TO be the All.
perh"us one of running tilt against
the theory Of competitive examina-
tons of candidates for the pubic
service, rs outlined and advocated
by Geo. w Curtis and Joseph ed
i'll, and to protest against the present
disposition OF those gentlemen 70
feel good oyer the progress that the
reform is making. The Times ex.
ponds considerable ridiculc upon
them and their plan, and represents
them as now "slapping their unac-
customed thighs" oyer the system
adopted by the new administration,
"as though they were cackling over
their own egg" With ne,rly all
that the 7H,es says, about the i'm
practicable methods, suggested by
the famous Civil Service Commits,
sion, of which Messrs. Curtis aud
Medill were members, we heartily
agree. The ranging Of candidates
for government appointments, in
classes, and catechising them like
school boys, as to their requirements
in the general field of knowledge
and literature, with view OF ascer-
tanning their capacity to run post
office or perform the ,luties Of Il
clerkship, was unnecessary, if not RI
diculous. But while the Times is
pointing its gibes ut the theorists of
this school, it should not forget that
other class of politicians, who,
maintaining that We ready had the
"best civil service in the world" res
olu;ely fought against reform in any
shape. II, AS the Times says, Curtis
and Medill are slapping their thighs
over the happy mean adopted by
President Hayes, and claiming the
glory of it. those other fellows are
deriving poor sort Of consolation
from the fact that though the Offices
are no longer to be the spoils of
party anil the rewards Of partisan
work, still the reform is not accord
ing tothe programme OF its projectors.
There is this credit, however, to be
given the "theorists" of the Curtis
and Medill stripe-and it may posi-
bly, dull the edge of the Times satire
against them-thcy early took ground
for reform. of some kind, and have
been largely instrumental in bring
ing the public sentiment OF the coun-
try up to the possibility OF its accom-
plishment. Looking at it candidly,
we do not know but what they have
As much cause t. slap their thighs
and indulge in self congratulations
as anybody.

AN exchange, evidently in the pay
of some liquor house or distillery,
tells fearful tale of the bad effects
of impure water, and gives al infalli-
BILE rule by which to test it. 1t Is to
take some of the infected fluid, put it
in bottle, and let it remain in the
sunshine ten days. If, at the end Of
that time, it is cloudy, it is proof
That it is not fit to drink. The pa
per does not say what the experiment
ter shall drink while the test is 60
ing on, but the inference is that he
shall take his regular moisture in
Bourbon whiskey. The test is es-
pecially commended to persons trav-
cling.

WHEN he really sets about it, the
average Democratic politician can
make an ass OF himself with greater
facility, and more faithful adherence
to the original pattern, than any
other man on the planet. \ perfect
illustration of this Is afforded by
''Dick" Merritt, the Washington at
torney, who appeared as one of the
Tilden counsel before the Electoral
Commission. So outraged ls he be-
cause the President has appointed q
"nigger," Fred Douglas, as Marshal
Of the District, that he has register
ed solemn vow that he will neither
speak to, recognize. associate with,
or encourage in any way, SAID Ruth
ertord Il. Hayes, from this time
henceforth. Just what the Presi-
dent and his Cabinet, will think
best to do in this awful emergency,
has not yet TRANSFERRED. Unless
Dick Merritt can be placated in
some way, it is plain that the new
administration must be failure.

The issue at the municipal cleo.
ton IN the town OF Usage last year
was that OF license against prohibi
ton, and the latter won. Usage has
been without saloons for a year, and
has had ample opportunity 10 test
the prohibition policy. This spring
u square issue was made on the SAM,
question, and tie prohibition can,li.
dates were elected 10y an Increased
minority, thus demonstrating the fac,
that the people of that town are sat
istied to do without saloons. The
business men OF Usage, rs We know
of our personal knowledge, are as i'll
telli gent and quick to discern any
thing that is against their interests,
as any others; they could have intiu-
enccd the election one way or the
other, but they have discovered the
tallacy OF the idea that the nercan
tile Interests Of Il town suffer unless
whisky is sold in it.

ell to and that the people will allow
Packard and Chamberlin to stand or
fall on their own merits. 1t seems
merely Il question Of short time when
these two Governors retire from their
present positions, and The Senate evil
IDENTITY prefers H. to assume any re-
~ponsibility for their retention or re-
TRACY. 1t is universally admitted by
all that the day is over in which bay

Government. and that change to an,
other form is preferable.

ONE Hayes, leading lawyer Of
San Francisco, one day last week
called at the office of the -Ihu Tuh-
t0rmid to demonstrate with the
managing editor thereof, Col. John
NJ Comb, in relation to IA certain ar
ticlc in said paper, in which said
Hayes was alluded to in a somewhat
humorous vein. Hayes insisted that
such levlty toward a man Of hi, dig
nifty was shocking in the last degree,
and demanded that it he apologized for
at the same time offering to enforce
the demand at the mouth Of a piece
OF ordnance commonly called pis-
toll. Then rose the sad editor III his
wrath, and incontinentIy knocked
said Hayes GOWN, gave him sound
thrashine, and dispossessing him of
said pistol, ending the job by deliv-
ering said Hayes to the police sta
ton, where charge of assault with
a deadly weapon was brought against
him. And now it is possible that the
leading lawyer Hayes has a clearer
appreciation Of what is meant when
papers sometimes allude to the
Fighting editor" The affair will al
SO afford thin skinned parties valua-
bic information rs to the probable
outcome Of attempts to bull-1oze ed
itors with q pistol.
