THE HON. MONTGOMERY BLAIR's
VIEWS, t.s.
LFrom his speech at Washington I

lfrom MS speech at Washington.
The question which will be decid-
ed this fall is whether the monopolists
can perpetuate their power to fleece
the people by the use of the peoples
money. The fact that the present
executive attained his place by forge.
ry and perjury, and that he paid the
perpetrators of the crimes Of which
he is the beneficiary, and those who
coumselled the criminals and assisted
to give effect to their crimes, is estab-
lished by the public records. And
not only did the people decide against
the monopoly party in 1876, but the
decision was the repetition of the
emphatic decision rendered in 1874,
and third time repeated in 1877. All
the pretexts upon which the partisans
Of monopoly now again seek to with.
stand the settled judgment of the
people against them have been earu.
estly pressed upon the public mind
IN each of those occasions, aud have
been found unavailing. Nor do the
mass of our tellow-citizens who sus-
tain that party either deny that the
people have condemned it, or approve
the fraud by which the legally ex-
pressed will Of the people against it
was Sc; aside. They are held to the
party by partisanshlp, stimulated by
gross and unjust assaults upon their
sdversaries. and by artful pleas in
extenuation of their misconduct, made
by the able advocates. retained and
paid by the monopolists.
The cry deemed most effective to
justify wrestling and withholding the
government from the people is that
ne "solid south" is cooperating with
ne peoples party, and that to allow
nat organization to hold the govern
ment would be to turn it over to
rebels and copperhesds; and this is
said of the party which nominated
Mcclellan in 1874. Frank Blair in
1868, Horace Greeley in 1872, elected
Tiiden in 1876, aud now means to
elect the hero who broke the back of
he rebellion at Gettysburg!

Investigations Qncluding correspondence from
Maine to OregOn) found that the enactment of
such q law would be as generally approved as
had been the repeal Of that of 1867. In the
meantime aid IN the construction of new law
was sought from many and varied sources.
Other trade societies worked independently to
the same end, then joint commission reached
a mutual agreement as to most OF the main
provisions for the desired act. Up to this time
the eXpediency OF presenting the subject to the
present session Of Congress has not been fully
had taken an active interest In the matter
visited Washington for that purpose, upon their
request special committee Of the House judi
c1ary committee was appointed, before whom
on the 9th inst, a satisfactory hearing was had

bill should be prepared and presented in due
form at the earliest day practicable The con-
structfOn OF such bill has been cOnflded to an
eminent Judge Of the Q. s. court. 1t Is expected
to have the bill before the judiciary committee
early next month. The Boston Board OF Trade

Pressure for Police Appointments
THE RUsE OF REJECTED APPLICANT.

The recent agitation of the subject of fncreaS-
ing the police force for this District has had the
effect of bringing before the superintendent of
police and the board of police surgeons an un-
usual number OF applicants for position on the
force. At the last meeting of this board, about
week ago, upwards Of one hundred applicants
were present for examination, and there ap-
peared to be considerable of rivalry to get the
Der was young would-be police
but whose hopes were dashed when his height
service showed him then to measure five feet
six inches, and the figures Of the police surgeons
could only record five feet seven and three
police manual requiring five feet eight inches.
He went away considerably chop fallen, and
yesterday his friends, at his solicitation, pro-
cured the consent Of the authorities for re-
examination as to his height, he having satis-
factorily passed all other tests. This morning
ne presented himself at the Office, and 10
the astonlshment s ne a OF all present, bis height
a quarter inches. This somewhat staggered
the major and superintendent, who had, at the
previous trial pretty closely scrutinized the
disposed towards him. He again made an ex-
animation and found on close inspection that
he had on two pairs of socks, pair Of cotton
that these lifted him up pretty high he directed
him to take them of, when it was found that he
measured only five feet seven inches. The
young aSplran6 strained every nerve to bring
up the measurement, but it was no CO.
Picklng up his stockings, the major then
discovered the secret which had so per-
picked them. Inside his stockings was found
layer of pasteboard lifts, each nearly an inch
thick, which had been fixed In the heels Of his
stockings to raise him to the required height.
Had he been little more modest 1t is not i'm
probable that he would have passed, but the
discrepancy was too great and his rise did not
avail him. He left In worse frame of mind
than al. first, having to stand the laughter Of
bystanders in addition to his disappointment.
