a son of Peter Reaches, had obtained some
matches and lit the hay-stacls in several
places before discovered.
1t was fortunate thing that some one
happened to discover the fire before any

strong wind then prevailing, the loss would
have been extensive. as there were number
of frame dwellings, in the immediate vicinity

This individual has had q warm
time of it ever since he went into
Office. The Democratic members of
Congress stirred him up to give
their friends positions. Then the
dingy horde of Confederates beg
ging for crumbs, hung upon him
like leeches. Poor Polk was not to
blame so much as the mem bers for
his dishonesty of administration.
He had about 100 places to dispose
of, and the demands of Democratic
members probably exceeded five
times that, and they promised to
stand by Polk in putting a larger
number on the pay rolls than were
needed. This little Office has al
most demoralized the Reform Dem
ocratic party. An investigation
was had, and the result is that Polk
is now "down and out" The Dem
ocrats having got him into the d.
lemma, deserted him. This is the
second man WHO has been turned
out of this Office since the Demo
Gratis got control of the lower house
of Congress. The crow eating by
the Democrats on this occasion was
awful, but the Republicans made
them face the music. They made
vigorous efforts to save Polk by
proposing censnre instead of expul-
sion, but while seventy to eighty
Democrats, many of them fierce in
vestigators of Republicans, voted to
sustain Polk, enough voted with the
Republicans to expel him. Mr..
Hale made the strong point that
Democrats had urged and advised
Polk to this violation of law, and
what they had done was fair indi-
cation of what might be expected
whenever the democratic party OBJ
tanned control of the departments of
this government. There was a good
deal of sympathy for Polk on the
Republican side, from the knowl-
edge of the persistence with which
Democratic members had insisted
upon having Office for their friends.
He had a right to expect from their
promises that they would promptly
cover his extra expenditures with
appropriations, and legalize his
over crowded rolls, but the moment
he was discovered he was deserted
and left to his fate by enough to
turn the scale against him.
