DAVIS IND CONKLING.

The telegraph informs us that the two
men most talked about in Washington now,
and throughout the country, by the readers
of Congressional proceedings are Roscoe
Conkling and David Davis. The dispatch
adds, "Soothing Syrup Davis" as he will
hereafter be known. This little touch is
clew to the whole combination for effective
party coloring now in Washington. The
peerless Roscoe, together with the lesser
ones of the same political affiliation, has the
benefit of the most pervasive advertising in
the world. He is always announced as being
on the eve of some mighty effort, and about
to vent his transcendent political fitness in
some action that will revolutionize the
country.
When he intermittently answers to the
announcement, and relapses into his wonted
hauteur, he hasn't done SO much that is
worthy of national remembrance. Under
the glamour of presence, boldness, vigor and
great ability, there is no inspiration save
merely personal aims and ignoble personal
spites. Hence, no matter what Roscoe Conk-
ling advocates or opposes, whether his sar-
casm is directed at the President or Judge
Davis, it is amusing and trenchant; but
what weight has it? He is man without
popularity, and although self-made he has
no sympathy with the people. Ambitious
self-reli ant, and artificial, he is like an actor.
always en- spectacle. With his fine gifts, and
they are many, for he is a thorough lawyer,
with the most diplomatic knowledge of men,
he only gives out a querulous force in dra-
matte exhibition. With magnificent phys
iaue and impressive dignity, he
is naughty and repellant, and the irresisti-
BILE personal attraction of Clay, Webster,
Blaine and Corwin, is lost power to the
constituents of Roscoe Conkling. As party
leader in trying emergencies he can crystal
ize his forces and lead them to victory, as
he did on his return from Europe, when he
proclaimed hostility to the present admins
tration, and gained the largest Republican
vote at the polls in two years. But it seems
to require these merely personal prejudices

WAYS THAT ARE DARK.

Witch Seems to be the Style adopted By
State Treasurer Pfaender IN Letting
German Printing.
To the Editor of the Globe: \
The Board of immigration held short
session on the 18th day of April. The
board decided, in the interest of the State,
to have the immigration pamphlet printed
also in the German, Swedish and Norwe-
gian languages. The secretary of the board
was instructed to ask and receive bids for
the printing. Mr.. VIM. Pf@nder, at present
state treasurer, was also appointed a COM
mittee of one, to superantend the printing of
the pamphlets in German, and Secretary Of
State, Mr.. Irgens, to superlntend the print
ing of the pamphlets in the Scandinavian
languages. The board then adjourned for
one week. On the day following the session
of the board, as above, we received COM
munication from the secretary of the board,
Mr.. 81. Fl. Young, whereby he asked us to
make bid, but without fixing any day or
hour for such bid to be handed in. The
board itself had not fixed any time for the
reception of bids.
We handed in our bid on Tuesday, the
22d day of April, being just one day before
the session of the board, but were at once
informed that Mr.. Pf@nder had already, on
the Saturday preceding, awarded the con-
tract to the "VolkszeitIng" of this city.
We were really very much surprised, as the
board had in no way empowered Mr. Pfen-
der to award the contract. We interviewed
Mr.. Irgens at once, who had the same obli-
cations regarding the Scandinavian pam
phlets as Mr.. Pf@nder had regarding those
in German, to learn if he had also awarded
his contract in this presumptuous manner.
Mr.. Irgens emphatically declared that
he had no power whatever to
do SO and stated that awarding of the con-
tracts was the business of the board at their
next meeting on Wednesday. Mr. Dillon
O'Brien, whom we also interviewed upon
this matter, corroborated the statement of
Secretary Irgens in every particular, and
said: "Mr. Pfaender has no right whatever
to award the contract without submitting
the bids to the board.''
We will further state that all other bids
were opened at the session of the board, and
the contracts awarded by such board to the
lowest bidders.
Only Mr.. Pfaender, this man of spotless
character, to whom the welfare of our State
is dearer than life, as we are told he boasts,
acted in this described and unbusinesslike
and prejudiced manner, and thereby saddles
upon the State and the taxpayers differ
ence of $65, our bid being that much under
the bid of the Volkszeitung. Ut course, no
great crime in itself, but enough to show the
animus of Mr.. Pfaender. Very respectfully,

Danger of Gtvina SERVANTS a Bad Char

DUNyCT VI OJCtvtV DSTCUSt0 ~ I9UU NStUTs
A curious libel suit has just been tried in
London, the plaintiff being Jane Jones, q
lady's maid, and the defendant her grace
the Duchess of Westminster. Jane Jones
was formerly in the employ of the duchess,
and thu trouble all grew out of letter which
the duchess wrote to Mrs. Chapman, who
had asked her what sort of a girl Jane was.
In this letter the duchess said that Jane had
proved so unsatisfactory that she was forced
to discharge her that upon being told she
must go, event quite out of her mind, !" and
that after leaving she became so abusive and
annoying that she was forbidden to come to
the house. Jane found out about this let
ter and conceived the brilliant idea of bring
ing libel suit against the duchess. The
trial occupied three days; all that the duchess
had written about James bad character and
more was established. and the jury only
wanted ten minutes to decide upon verdict
for the defendant. The trial of course
caused great sensation, and the London
papers hail the decision as another precedent
in the much-needed line of establishing an
employers right to tell the truth about his
emplOve.

Indiana and the Presidencu

The Indianapolis Journal publishes the
opinions of more than 1000 Republicans,
not politicians, but business men and pro-
fessional men, upon the candidate for Presi-
dent in 1880. The interviews extend over
sixty-fve or seventy counties. The result is
that Is per cent. are for Grant, Is for Sher-
man, and the balance divided between
Blaine, Garfield, Conkling and Washburne.
The reason in all cases is the same-that the
action of the Southern Democracy has forced
the issue upon the North, and it must be met
in the same spirit in which it is offered.

The Senate passed the army appropriation
bill yesterday exactly as it came from the
House, and it was speedily sent to the Presi-

The very general satisfaction expressed
with the Democratic city ticket is far from
encouraging to the Republicans. There is
unanimity rarely seen even in local affairs.
The feeling is wide spread that we cannot,
at this time, afford to exchange our execu-
tive officers. Very little IS said about poll
tics but great deal is said about guarding
our local interests, and no one who is well
informed need be told that to protect them
it is necessary to elect the Democratic city
