sharn Words to Mr.. Kelly.

The Tammany Committee on Organi-
cation having appointed a committee to
reorganize the Eighth Assembly district,
with the purpose of expelling ex-alder
man VIM. R. Roberts and his friends
from the organization. because of their
opposition to John Kelly, Mr.. Roberts
has written an open letter to Mr.. Kelly
in regard to the matter. Among other
things contained in the letter are the
following:
"You endeavored to get the members
of the committee, of which l am Chair
man, to revolt against my leadership and
thereby force me out of the organization,
but with all your power and cunning
you could find, out of forty-three mem
bers, only eIght-f1ve of whom are Of
ceholders-willing to aid you in your
disreputable work. You have learned
neither wisdom nor justice from the ex-
perience of the past; you are the boss,
master and owner of the organization;
you trample on the rights of its mem
bers whenever it suits your personal
ends, and only through fear and self-in-
terest are you permitted to rule over a
body of men, two thirds of whom de-
spise you for your monumental selfish
ness, and the ruin and humiliation you
have brought upon them and the Demo
cratic party"
Mr.. Roberts accuses Mr.. Kelly of
making merchandise of his political in
fuence and of betraying his party for
personal ends. He says that Mr.. Kelly
endeavored to get Mayor Grace to prom
Use Commissionerships to Republican
Aldermen in order that he might retain
the Office of Comptroller, failing in
which, Mr.. Kelly denounced the Mayor
He also endeavored in January last to
make ''deal' with the Republican AL
dermen, but failed. The letter also
states that according to the bylaws
of the Tammany organization Mr..
Kelly's "disciplining" proceeding is
wholly illegal, and concludes;
"You could not poll to-day $1,000
votes, and you have not over three dis
tTict committees that are not either mere
ly on paper or ready to scatter at the
first fight. Since January there has been
only one meeting of the general commit
tee that had an attendance of over four
hundred members out of twelve hun
bred, and out of nearly eight hundred
members of the Committee on Organiza
ton there has been scarcely one hundred
in attendance at any meeting, with one
or two exceptions; and you had to abol-
ish the committee of twenty-four Zone
from each district) because they were
taking the reins out of your hands"

More Removals from Office

The Washington correspondent of the
Baltimore Sun says: The removals in
the offices of the Secretary of the Senate
and the Sergeant alarms of the Senate
continue to be one of the leading topics
here, and much feeling is exhibited on
the subject. Under any circumstances
it viii be one of the first matters to be
brought before the Senate on its reas-
sembling. in December. Mr.. P. F. But
Ter, of Connecticut, one of the most eff
Gent clerks in the Office of the Secretary
of the Senate, was to-day dropped from
the rolls and a friend of Senator Cockrell
put in his place. This was done in spite
of personal representations made by
Senators to the Secretary that the
distinct understanding was that
the entire force should remain during
the recess without changes. Mr.. Butler
has given notice that when the Senate
meets he will present a claim for his sal
airy up to that time, and he has been as
sured by Senators that the claim will be
a solid one. In view of the action of
the Secretary and the Sergeant-at-Arms
in turning out men for whom the Demo
cratic Senators fought as much as for
them, the greatest Indignation has
been expressed, and Senator
Bayard said yesterday that the
action of these two officers was a gross
violation of decency and propriety, and
that if his life was spared until next De-
cember he would Immediately on the
assembling of the Senate bring in a mo-
ton for their summary removal. Sena-
tor Beck went into the Office of the Ser
geantat-arms a few days ago and gave
to that officer, with no mincing of words,
his opinion of what was going on.
Dir. Bright has had several stormy
interviews with Mr.. Heiskell. of Balti.
more, one of the officials to whom he
sent notice of removal, and has been
made so uncomfortable thereby that now
when he sees Mr.. Heiskell coming he
locks himself in his private room. Mr..
Heiskell has both the verbal and written
assurances Of Senators that his tenure is
considered By them just as permanent
as that of Mr.. Bright Mr.. Butler has
had interviews with the Secretary pretty
much on the same line as those of Mr..
Heiskell with the Sergeant-at-Arms.

PLAIN TALK TO ARTHUR.
Why the Public ShrInks from the
Possibility of EAis EleVatIOn-The
Source of Guitaau's Inspiration.
Nel0 York Times.

1t is not too much to say, in the first
place, that if Mr.. Garfield had not been
the chief of service in which offices are
held out as prizes to men of much the
same merit and much the same career as
this murderer he would not have been
exposed to this attack. And while this
is beyond dispute, it is also probable that
the murderer's mad spite would not
have been screwed to the sticking point
if it had not been stirred by the
license that has prevailed in GER
tain quarters with reference to
fore, is one which may and ought to con-
vey lesson, which should teach US the
folly and the wrong of the insane pur-
suit of office which our methods of pub.
lie employment invite, which should
show us the danger and disgrace of the
unbridled political passion aroused by
these methods. In a certain sense the
act Of Guiteau was an accident, for it
was entirely out of the range OF any or
binary motives, but it is not inexplica.
Bile; it is clearly of those accidents
which bring more wildly to the mind
the forces that create them.
That General Arthur has been untrue to
his better self as clearly as he has been
faithless to the demands of the aggre-
gate of political intelligence and con-
science which he, in some sort. repre-
sents, we have no manner of doubt.
That he is able to profit from such a
demonstration of public feeling toward
him as the crime of yesterday elected,
we are equally certain, else were its
plain statement as irrelevant as pain

be to lmpute any suggestion of

rhe Yalue of COTTON Seed Products.

The proceedings of the recent Cotton
Seed Crushers' Convention at Cincinnati
Caveloped some very important facts
with regard to the value of the meal pro-
duct as a fertilizer and as food for stock.
For example, Mr. Hamilton, of Shreve-
port. La, said he found cotton seed meal
scarcely inferior to guaDo as fertilizer
and invaluable as food for cattle. In
exchanging meal for seed, one ton of the
former was given for two and quarter
tons Of the latter. Another member had
demonstrated, by actual experiment on a
farm in Connecticut, that the meal is the
best fertilizer ever used on tobacco lands,
TRIPPING their productive capacity in three
years, and is superior to any other cattle
food. Again, Mr.. Baber, of Selma,
claimed to have increased, by the use Of
cotton seed meal, the production on poor
lands of IS bales to AS bales. In fact,
there was unanimous testimony to the
value Of the cotton meal and cake, not
only for feeding cattle, but as fertili-
ger. In the quality of feed stuff it is
being used in Great Britain, Sweden,
Norway, and to some extent in Russia.
According to the New Orleans Pieayune
the farmers of Louisiana are beginning
to try the efficacy of this home product,
and a more general appreciation of its
utility will stimulate agriculturists to
take better care of the seed, while the
crushers will be enabled to pay them a
better price for il.

Guiteau to Arthur.
PhfIafelnhin Ledner.

The police authorities declined to
make public the statements prepared by
Guiteau District Attorney Corkhili,
who has them in his possession, produc-
ed them at the White House, where
they were read to members of the Cabi-
net Among them there is letter ad-
dressed to Vice President Arthur, in
which Guiteau informs him of the as
sassinatiOn of President Gar
field and that he (Arthur) was
by this act made President of
the United States. Guiteau then pro-
ceeds to advise the Vice President as to
the selection of his Cabinet, and recon-
mends Mr.. Coulsburg for Secretary of
State; Levi p. Morton for Secretary of
the Treasury; Emory A. Storrs, of Chi
cago, for Attorney General, and John
A. Logan for Secretary of War He
further says in this letter that Postmas-
ter General James is doing so well in the
Post Office Department that he might be
retained; that the Departments of the
Navy and Interior are not of much &C
count, and it does not make much diff
ference whether any change is made in
them or not.

A correspondent of the Chicago Times
shows that the South has made more
progress in educational matters in the
past few years than any other section of
the country. The Texas Legislature
last year voted an endowment fund of
s., 500, 900 for State university, reor-
ganized the State Agricultural College
and provided for the establishment of
several normal schools for the education
of teachers. In Georgia the school at
tendance has increased more than 400
per cent. in nine years, and so on
throughout the South, which, if the
present rate of progress be kept up, will
soon be on par. as far as its schools are
concerned, with New England.

The Real Assassin.
.AtLanta Constttntion.


No thoughtful man will deny that the at
tempt on the life of President Garfield is
the natural and appropriate outcome of the
political insanity which goes by the name
of Republicansm. Frenzy and fanaticism
are the streams which have fed this re-
markable organization from the first The
fury with which the Southern people have
been pursued, the stupendous frauds of
1876, the acknowledged corruptious Of 1880.
the tremendous struggle between the fac
tiOns and the marvellous greed for office, all
90 to show that the life Of an Individual. even
though that individual be the Republican
President of the United States, will not be
allowed to stand in the way of those who
are seeking place and power. There are
thousands of Republicans in the North to-
day as insane as the "stalwart of the stall
warts" who shot the President, and as
ready to be made tools Of There are
thousands Of Republicans who would wei
come period of anarchy that would place
in control OF affairs the restless and revolu-
tionary spirits, who are determined at all
hazards to control the government.
To day the great majority of the Northern
press will characterize the act of Charles
Guiteau as that of an insane man, and vet
the editors whose business 1t is to know and
gauge the course and temper of current
politics must feel that there is nothing
strange in the fact that "stalwart of the
stalwarts' has made a perhaps too success
full attempt 10 assassinate the President
They must know and feel that the men
and machinery which bought the return
ing boards and stole the Presidency In
1876, and which according to the public
confession of the person who will profit
most by the death Of the President) entered
Indiana In 1880 and corrupted the ballot
box by the wholesale purchase Of voters
the thoughtful editors of the North must
know and feel that the men who engaged in
these conspiracies would not stop at assas-
snation, il assassination be necessary to
accomplish their purpose.
The Constitution can afford to discuss this
deplorable event from the standpoint OF
reason and common sense. Our interest in
General Garfield is not political; It is purely
human and, we trust, patriotic. His death,
at this iuncture, would be something more
than public calamity, since 1t would be the
means of placing the administration of the
government in the control of the most vic
ious development of political scoundrelism
that even the Republican party has ever
known, hoarY as that organization is in cor
ruption. We can afford to trace the at
tempt of Charles Gutteau to itsfrue cause.
the desperation of Republican corruption.
1t is a warning to the people that the
particular element of ReDubicanism which
has depended upon kuavery to keep It In
power is not to be sent to the rear without
a struggle. The assassination OF President
Garfield is simply and solely the result-the
natural Outgrowtb-of that particular pollti-
cal frenzy which, for want of better name,
has come to be known as ''stalwart Re-
publicanism."

The Duty of the Democracy.

Commenting on the attempt on Presi-
dent Garfeld's life, the Baltimore Gazette
truly says: THE point of deepest IN
terest to the Democracy in this tragic
event is the existence of a reckless and
ambitious imperialist party in this coun-
try-a party that will stop at nothing to
secure its power. The Republican party
has shown itself unable to control this
imperialist faction; for, though they are
fewer in numbers than the administration
party, they are stronger in brains, organi-
cation, energy, discipline and audacity.
Though outvoted in conventions, il
practically has controlled elections. The
second man on the Chicago ticket was a
third-termer, and through Garfield
death would be President. The Republi-
can party cannot control the third term
idea; it may even be controlled by it..
Now, then, what is the duty of the
Democracy in this national crisis7 Is
if not to heal all dissensions in its ranks
to present an unbroken front to the foe;
to stand upon the old and tried princi-
Piles upon which all Democrats agree,
and resist with victorious legions the
threatened invasion of representative in
stitulions? The Republican party can
no longer be safely intrusted with the

The Last Problem.

Mr.. II. l. Kimball, Director General of
the Atlanta Exposition, has worked up
matters so well, according to the papers,
that there now remains but a single
problem to solve in order to complete tine
success of the Fair. But that problem,
it seems, is the keystone to the arch,
and requires the most skillful workman
ship TO fashion and polish exactly to suit
the occasion. 1t is the problem of en-
tertainment, deemed more essential than
all the rest, as the duration of the Expo
sitiOn may leave it without the expected
crowds of visitors, after the first flush,
uzless proper and satisfactory entertain
ment is duly provided. In his efforts
TO make assurance dOubly
sure, Mr.. Kimbal finds the solution of
this problem IN the throwing open of
private houses for the reception of visi-
tors during the three months of the Ex-
position. He proposes the registration
of houses throughout the city, with the
number of spare rooms in each, and
system of tickets and coupons. through
which visitors may secure rooms before
arrival in the city and with the least
possible confusion and delay after their
arrival. Fair compensation is also pro-
posed, and it is believed by the mana
gers that, properly carried out, this sys-
TEN will give satisfaction to all parties
concerned.

1t may seem singular, remarks the St.
Louis Republican, but it is not uureason-
able that the Democracy should rejoice
a great deal more over the prospect that
the Republican party will control the
House in the Ferty-seventh Congress by
amaiority of one or two, than they would
if they had to look forward to Democrat
ic majority of half dozen. The Demo.
Gratis will be strong enough to checkmate
any Republican rascality, which is about
as much as they could do with Repub
lican President in the White House even
If they had control of both branches OF
Congress by less than a two thirds ma
iority. There is no responsibility to bur
den the minority, and as the Democrats
viii be nearly as strong as the Republi-
cans 10 votes, and great deal stronger
in natural ability and acquired expert
ence as Legislators, they are bound to
lead the majority a lively dance.

Outlaws I'm North Carolina.

The arrest of Henry Gwinn at States
vile, North Carolina, on the Sd instant,
reveals the existence of regularly or
ganized band of outlaws in that portion
of the State. Before the magistrate
Gwinn stated that the order was COM
posed of twenty-five or thirty members,
bound together by solemn oath, the
penalty for the divulging of which was
death. He said the band was regularly
differed, there being, besides captain
for field work, judge, whose duty is
to assign each man his work according
to his peculiar talent, and everything
stolen is turned into the common trea-
sury for pro rata division. Gwinn be-
sought the authorities to protect him, and
asked to be sent under guard away from
the Southern States to a distant place,
where the vengeance of the gang might
not follow him, pledging himself never
TO come back under penalty of death.
He had been assigned to duty on the
South Carolina line, where he was
caught, and the fact that he was not
much trusted by his fellow conspirators,
caused him to divulge the secrets of the
band.
About three years ago a band of organ,
lied thieves infested the same region,
who had for their leader Charles House
man, a young man of brilliant talents
and daredevil temperament. He and
cOlored companion, Tom Bowman, were
caught in the act of burglary. House
man was sentenced to be hung and Bow
man to the penltentiary for life. The
sentence of the former was afterward
committed to Imprisonment for life.
The capture of Houseman seemed to
demoralize his band for awhile, but they
have been reorganized, and, Gwinn says,
are in better condition than ever. Their
gains amount to thousands, and their
headquarters being in the mountain
Businesses of the section, are considered
well nigh impregnable. Gwinn's revela-
tiOns have created much excitement
among the citiZpnS
