With the Convention to-day of the regular
and respectable and very much reduced De-
mocracy of Massachusetts, the formal prepara-
tons for the campaign in that State Will close.
IA the letter of our Boston correspondent
shows, there has seldom been n campaign for
which there was so much preparation in the
way of conventions, and there has seldom
been a campaign in MASSACHUSETTS, of late
years. where the majority felt obliged to put
forth such efforts. There is reason to hope
il seems. tina. General Butler will abandon his
unaccust0med role "a Il stili-hunter, and burst
into the canvass in the true Butler manner
This is to be expected. General Butler has
been bottled mp on more than one famous
occasion in his lifetime hut he never would
stay bottled. II the regular Democrats nom

To-day i the first day of registration, ana
there will remain after to-day but tmce days
on which this duty can be periormed-the
l5th, 2lth and 18th Of this month. Ii ought
not 10 lie ncedfu to say a single word OF
the importance of an early md full enrol
ment of the Republican vote upon the books
of the Election Inspectors. The issues OF
the campaign are before every voter, and
he knows their vital interest. Let every
Republican,, therefore, who Is able to
do so, register his name fo-dGy. No
one need bc afraid that the whole party
will 90 with him, and make such a crowd
that he can't SO much as get into the polling
place. There are always Il number who are
kept away by unavoidable causes. and there
viii he room enough. But the Republican
who puts off this duty, thinking that the
next day will do. Is likely TO put it oil one
dav too oft N, and lose his vote altogether.

Mr. John Jameson, of Columbus,
is the author of the following facts
concerning the figures 1881, which
we clip from the Columbus Demo
crat:
The year 1881 will be a mathe-
NAUTICAL curiosity. From left to right
and from right to left it reads the
same; Is divided by 2 gives nine as
the e~uotient. If 1881 is divided by
209, 8 is the Quotient; if divided by
8 the quotient contains a nine; if
multiplied by 8, the product contains
two 9's. One and eight are nine,
eight and one are nine. If the Is
be placed under the 81 and added,
the sum is SO. If the figures be
added thus, L, s, s, 1, it will give Is.
Reading from lett to right is Is, and
reading from right to left is 81; and
Is is two-ninths of 81. By adding,
dividing and multiplying, nineteen
I9's are produced, being one 8 for
each year required to complete the
century.

CIVIL SERVICE

We doubt very much if the cause
of civil service reform and the pre-
vention of federal officials using their
positions for political purposes will
advance very rapidly so long ascab-
met officers continue active politi-
clans while in Office. In the case of
Mr.. Sherman, q prominent member
of the administration, his example
and influence are always on the side
Of official the campaigning. He is
one of the most indefatigable wire
tpuAers-onT the-eeH6iHeRt, and not
only leaves Washington to make
stump speeches but talks, writes and
schemes politics every day of his
life. He manages also to be "inter-
viewed" several times each week,
and each interview has q stump
speech in its belly. Professional
politicians visit Washington for Sc
crete consultations, and in all its de-
tails he is one of the grand mauag-
ers of the Republican circus. There
is no constitutional objection, per-
haps, to'all this, bntit brings out the
bold absurdity of the. so-called "or-
ders'' prohibiting official interfer-
ance in elections. The President
promplgates a mild order on thesub-
ject, and the Secretary furnishes a
sharp example directly to the con
trary, rot only in his personal con
duct, but in the distribution of Of
fetal patronage. The same thing is
done by other prominent officials,
and there is no doubt that, during
the coming national canvass the
whole army of federal office holders
and employees, SO far as it can be
controlled, will be worked and weld
ed as a political machine. If there
is anything that should bring a par
ty into contempt, it is such "mock
heroics" as are exemplifed in the
governments civil service reform
~manifestoes. The active men con-
nected with the present administra
ton are all partisans, and many of
them Of the extreme and violent type
represented by Mr.. Sherman. Their
paramount idea is "the party and
not the country, and there is not one

~Haa4aE 49, El--aEaeIIH
After Mr.. Deem received the nom
ination for Treasurer, a good many
of his Church brethren and Murphy
ce,laborers voluntarily went to him
and pledged theirvotes and influence
for his election, but before the e2ec-
ton came off the "whippers in" had
seen every one of these fellows and
forced them to yield their indepen-
dence and manhood, and put on the
collar of party seryitude. So when
the day Of election arrived, nearly
every mothers son of Mr.. Deems
pledged church and Murphy breth-
ern, were found shoulder to shoulder
with the saloon men, fighting him
to the bitter end. The opposition
against Mr.. Deem was simply and
alone because he had been an
active temperance man, and the
funny part of it is the fact that, the
pious Republican church members
and the brawling Republican part of
the Murphy organization, knowing
it too, joined this crusade and beat
him 237 votes! 1t is awonder it
was not twice two hundred and thir-
ty-seven, considering the means used
and the outrageous and gross lies
peddled over the County against
him by "dirty work politicians"
Probably these good pious people
have advanced the cause of chris
tianity by their "crawfishing' course,
and probably temperance has receiv-
ed a tremendous boost in Eaton by
the defeat of Mr.. Deem. Time will
answer the questions and make all
things even on this score.
