District Attorney Corkhin has had the
life of Guiteaa taken from his own lips by
short hand reporter, and after compiling
it, sold it to the New York Herald This
explains his action in adjourhing the grand
jury until it was too late to find an indict-
ment in the star route cases. He was so
busy at the biography of Guiteau that he
had no time to attend to his Office duties.
No one doubts that the correct life of the
assassin is of more importance to the coun
try at large than the conviction of the star
route robbers, but as the biography could
wait, if need be, until it could contain his
epitaph, while the indictment in the star
route eases was a present necessity, we
can be excused for censuring the exchange
of occupation. OF course it was prais-
worthy to please Guiteau with the idea
that the money raised By the sale of the
biography would go to pay the expenses
of his trial, while in fact it went into the
pockets of the District Attorney.
The Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1877-1885, 1881-10-08

The Hon. VIM. Evarts in an address be-
fore the New York Historical Society said,
that during and under the weight of this
great Presidential Office four have died
two plagued to death by the opportunities
of place hunters and two by the assassin s
hand the last being the result of disa D.
pointed ambition. Are these to be treated
as incidents of liberty or as circumstances
of the great fabric of our Government?
Let US consider whether this strife for Of
fice-the placeman's pride, the statesman s
scandal and the nations shame-cannot in
some way be averted. Who shall stand
before this people between the living and
the dead Presidents that this plague may
be stayed?"
1t is but another item of testimony
against the spoils system, but it is strong
one; coming from the man it did it should
especially commend itself to the Repubi-
can party. But viii the Republican party
heed it. Why, it was but two days ago
in the New York Republican convention,
that resolution introduced in favor of
civil service reform; resolution advocat-
ing the re-appointment of Merritt as Col
lector of the Port of New York as meas
ure of civil service reform, was received
with misses The appointment eff Merritt
would mean the removal of Robertson, and
Robertson has either given or promised to
give the spoils of his Office to many of
these delegates. Merritt enforced as far
as he was able, the rules of civil service
reform in the Custom House, and so they
Missed the recommendation for his appoint
ment' With Robertson, or some other
politician to whom they could make them
selves useful, as Collector, they hoped to
divide the spoils; with Merritt they knew
the only recommendation would be fitness
for the position.

A treatise on the history of the postal
card has been published in Berlin. The
originator of the idea is said to have been
a German state official, Dr. Stephen, who
wrote an essay upon it in 1856. Austria
was the first to adopt it. beginning in Oc-
tober, 1869. The first three months wit
messed the passage of $780, 900 cards
through the mails. Germany followed suit
in 1870, and the first day after the intro
duction of the postal card 45, 468 were sent
off In Berlin alone; and within two months
over 600, 600 were used Other countries
soon initiated the same step. During the
Franco Prussian war the postal card sys
tenn was great boon to both armies.
Over 10, 600 900 cards passed during the
cempaign between the Germs n soldiers and
their friends and homes. The greatest
proportional consumption of postal cards
occurs unquestionably in the United States.
The whole of Europe is estin lated to use
annually $4,000, 900, while the consump-
zion in the United States aloms win proba-
bly, not fall short of $50, 00o,0 90 Germa-
ny consumed in 1879 122, 741,000. The
use of the postal card is, more over, con
stantly increasing and, TO some extent at
the expense of the letter correg pondence.
There are now said to be seye nty three
countries in which it is introduced. Aus

Malone is loud in his announcement
that his party or Reputation win advance
the interests of education in Virginia.
That cry, and the rather worn one about
the colored vote, are the reasons he gives
to northern republicans as excuses where
by they can ease their conseiences of aid
ing reputation for the sake of gaining
some votes for the party. How far his
policy win advance education in Virginia
San best be seen by regarding the financial
effect of reputation of the state debt on
the colleges of the state. If the Riddle
barger bill is passed it will ruin every col
lege in Virginia. These colleges were
DESTROYS of aiding the state at time when
it needed money, and satisfied that the
honor of Virginia would protect them in
in state bonds. Statistics have been col
lected showing how the reputation of
part of these bonds will affect those state
colleges.
Washington and Lee Unworthy took
$91, 1887 worth of bonds. yielding ST.
505, 83 annual interest,
Senator Malone proposes to force the
college to accept as full satisfaction of this
just debt, debt incurred in good faith
and whose full payment will further the
cause of education more than any scheme
of his, $40, 7s1 "A giving at the most 81,
200 a year interest.
Hampden- Sidney College holds $40, $50
worth of bonds, which Senator Malone
gracieusly offers to "readjust" into $751;
$50, To Randolph Macon College he
tenders 50, 760 in the lieu of S19, 70S. To
Richmond College 500, 344.80 instead of
S44, 017.19. To the Blacksburg Agricul-
tural College 1882, $40 instead of 1914, 313
being a loss of $161, TAB to be inflicted
on an institution especially designed for
for the benefit of the farmers of Virgin
Ia
To the Hampton Normal celored school,
established to educate freedmen, the class
which Malone claims to take an interest
in, passing that of father in his son, he
offers $91, 1855 instead of S172, 146. This
gives in all three quarters of million of
state bonds held by the colleges of the
state which Malone ssin the interest ofkdu-
cation proposes TO readjust" And yet
there are republicans in the north who
shut their eyes to all the dishonesty which
they are encouraging by their advocacy
of Malone and his party, and allow the
demagogue claims of the vote selling Sena-
tor to be balm to their consciences while
attempting by such means to gain state
for the party. Truly Malone understands
the republican party.

The republicans still keep on informing
us how nicely they can arrange the choice
of officers of the Senate, if only left to
themselves. It is kind of them and con-
sidela ate thus to determine what is
proper action. and to lay out a course for
democrats to follow; but it would be well
for them to remember that the democrats
have something to say on the same ques-
ton, and as they happen to have MAORI
| ty in the Senate their decision is of vastly
more importance than any republican one.
The dispatches state that Morgan and Gar
land are quoted as being willing to give
the republicans the presiding officer, the
democrats depending on secretary and SER
geant-at-arms. The republicans would
unanimously accept such a proposition.
No one doubts that the republicans would
unanimously accept such a proposition;
the day is far distant when that party
would fail to be unanimous when the
question of obtaining office is concerned.
But the democratic mind is pretty well
made up ON this point, and if the demo.
cratic Senators refuse to do their duty,
and allow the republicans to choose
the presiding officer, many of
cordial support, such a proceeding
will receive at home. There is nothing
very strange in the present attitude of the
republican party, going down on its knees
in 1ina4 to- ha lam 70 ack5 ING
them; please good, kind, Mr.. Democrats
wont you give up the Office, but
place for sentiment and gush is not here,
and by republican action the democrats
have majority in the Senate. The throw
ing away of this power which has come to
them by the deeds of republicans, stall
warts ALL to please a stalwart admin
istration would be silly exhibition of
nonsense.
The dispatch which says that the ma
jority of democrats insist that to fail to
take the presiding officer would disgust the
rank and file of party and be an adnlis-
sion that these representatives are unwil-
ling to take power which it fell to them
rank and file in the matter, and feeling
which the leaders are bound to respect.
The rank and file of the demo
cratic party is body of men
whose wishes had best be needed
by its leaders. For over twenty years they
have been true to the party principles,
worked for the party success. No hope of
reward has animated them; no promise of
a division of spoils has been the compel
ling power. They saw in democratic prin-
ciples the hope of a free government; they
saw in those principles the only hope for
an honest government, and that has been
their incentive to party action They work
ed for party success, for in that success
they saw d benefit to the country. Once
that success was attained; but the desire
for the spoils animated republican con-

Howgate will have to take up his quarters
