Hon. G. Eckles, Superintendent of
the State Reform School located at To-
peka, has favored US with pamphlet
which gives the rul es and regulations Of
the institution. This institution was
authorized by act of the legislature of
1879. The board of trustees of the state
charitable institutions have adopted
the rules in the pamphlet for the gov
eminent of the school. The distinct
feature of the Reform School will be
character building, as the work of the
institution belongs To the educational
rather than the penal department of the
the state government. The work
OF the school will be to
receive, discipline and educate
the following classes Of Juveniles. fitting

Cincinnati Gazette (Rep): Mr.. RIOS
cos Conkling's sea of words cannot
wash out the fact which is therein sub
stantially confessed, that he held back
from the presidential campaign, and, in
his own mind, consented to the defeat of
the Republican party, until his friends
had solicited General Garfield 10 con-
ference at New York, and. as he under
stood, Il was agreed, that he was TO have
the dispensalion of the national Offices
in New York. Then he consented to
give his aid TO the Republican candi-
dates, and then, he says, he took in Gen.
Grant. This plain exhibition of his
mercenary perhdity is all the case that
he presents to the Republicans of the
New York legislature.

Treasury HAtters-Eo WhitswashIng In the
Pituay Case.

WASHINGTON, d. c., May 27.-The to-
tai receipts from customs sources for
twenty-seven days of May are S14, $780,
coo; internal revenue, $12, $500 GOO. The
ordinary expenditures for the same
period have been $13, 800, 600, including
$5,OOO.OO of inspections claims and not
including the interest on the public
debt. The indications are that the re-
ductiOn of the debt for May will be up
wards of Eli ,OO0, 900.
The officials of the treasury depart
ment who have been implicated In the
treasury custodian ring, still retain their
positions, and therefore exercise some
authority over the members of the in
vestigating committee. This fact to-
gether with certain efforts to have wit
nesses make some corrections has
led TO an impression that the affair may
end in whitewashing, but this will not
be the case. Secretary Window was put
in possession of plain evidence of wrong
doing before the Investigation was or
dered, and the secretary requires full
and thorough exposure, with the fore
knowledge of the misuse of public
money.
Secretary Window appointed men on
the committee of character, who will
not hold TO the plea of friendship, or of
any other kind, TO save parties who have
been in the ring. Il will be some days
before Q final report will be submitted.

There is not, as a general rule, as
as much attention given by the far
mers Of this state to the public
highways as there should be. The
reason is in the prairie districts,
which comprise the major part Of
the farming lands, roads, are made
with very little expense, and are
kept up, when once laid ogt or es-
tablished, by a. poll or road tax,
woich is frequently insufficient to
keep them il good repair. In the
numbered portions it costs good
deal Of money to build good roads
and then it takes good deal more
every year to make them passable.
There is no one thing that sets off
a farming country to better advan-
tage than good roads, neither is any
thing that will sell good farms for
