Troubles Of the President Elect.

N. Y. Tribune interview with Garfield.
81 sometimes think myself" con-
tinued General Garfield, ''as a man
going to prison. You have heard
the advice given to man VINO has
been convicted of cri ne, to GO to
prison and bear manfully the punish
ment for his offense, to obey all the
rules of the prison, and when his term
expires to come back home and Give
it down. I am going to see if | can
obey all tue rules of the presidency
and then come back home and 'llve
it down.
Speaking particularly of the tenac-
fly and pertinacst of office-seekers,
and of the pam which some OF them
have already begun to iDfiict upon
him. General Garfield remsrked: "It
may appear very foolish to be great
ly annoyed by what be seem to be
little things, or by the logged per
tinacity Of those one terms small
people. but it cannot be helped some
times Some of my recent experiences
in this regard remind me Of the
story of the ichneumon and the croco-
ollie on the bank of the Nile. The
keen, cunning, cruel creature called
the ichneumon, watches until it sees
the crocodile fast asleep with his
mouth open ; it then rushes quickly
down his throat, and with sharp teeth
and claws lays hold of the very vitals
of the great crocodile, which, with
all his strength, is utterly powerless
to loosen the hold of his relentless
little tormentor. He rolls and writhes
in his strong agony and desperation,
and at last dies. Imagine croco-
die with hundred CT thousand
ichneumons down his throat, and you
have picture of the torture that may
be afflicted upon a sensitive, sympa-
thet!c nature by the horde of office
seekers which attacks new presi-
dent, or any other man who has
patronage 10 bestow at the incoming
of new administration.
ga president labors under dis
advantage that the crocodile does
not, added General Garfield. "The
ichneumons that assail bin do no,
wait until he is asleep, nor do they
hunt sngly-they come at all times
and seasons, and in squads or regi
ments at time"

been unprecedented. No other brand of
thread has ever met with the same amount

The go. N. T." manufacturers were the
first to recognize the importance of the Sew
ing Machine and to make six-cord cotton,
which has ever since been the recognized
standard for machines.
All the improvements in machinery that
tie inventive genius of the nineteenth CEN
curry has produced have been adapted by the
manufacturers of 80. n. T."
At all the great international Fairs of the

tAnd good boys should always be
encouraged. In box in the back room
there are eight dozen eggs. You may
take them home to your mother aud keep

The grocer had been saving those goose
eggs for days and weeks 10 reward some
one. In rewarding good boy he also
got eight dozen bad eggs carried out of
the neighb rhood free of cost, and he
c.uckled little chuck as he walked

The afternoon waned, night came ana

His eye caught basket Of eight dozen eggs

The grocer sat down and examined the

boy had lugged home the day before.

The Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1877-1885, 1881-04-30

The Chicago Inter Ocean attempts to
make out that the rumored dissension be-
tween Conkling and Garfield exists mostly
in the Imagination of democratic editors
and reporters, and makes the assertion that
Garfield and Conlling are republicans and
both will be true to the great principles of
the party" There is no doubt of that
only if the Inter Ocean had said principle"
and put ''of spoils" after it, it would have
better expressed the republican idea, and
have struck the very thing that Conkling
and Garfield are quarrelling about. Repub
lican principles are great things The
trouble is it takes a man like Conkling to
discover any.
This idea of smoothing everything over
with nice words and seeing nothing but
good in every mans actions, while no
doubt it is eminently christian and conse-
quently praiseworthy, nevertheless par
takes too much Of time serving and belongs
of right to the branch of that party who
desired to nominate Grant at Chicago, and
whose highest ideas of craftsmanship are
modelled after the example of Conkling,
Logan ct al. Ideas that would excuse star
route contracts, if the thieves subscribed
to the campaign fund, and could see merit
in whiskey rings if the ringsters carried
political influence; indeed the last named
subject is something of sore one to all
the Grant faction. Ideas, which grow in
dignant at the statement that Kirkwood is
incompetent, not because. he is well fitted,
but because, as it is stated it would hurt
the party: deny that Window is dishon-''
est, and Lincoln aspiring for spoils, on the
same principle, conceives the lash of the
party whip to be of more account than the
consciences of the voters, and deifys the
party machine as superior to constitutional
liberty

Dispatches were sent from St. Louis
during the strike at that place stating that
q gatling gun, had been sent there from the
Rock Island Arsenal
The Ecuriosity of number of citizens,
who saw the gun on the levee waiting ship
ment, as to what gatling gun is, is now
fully satisfied. To be sure there may be
some difference between the gatling gun of
a newspaper report and of an armv report
for that particular gun was about as far
removed from gatling gun as blunder-
buss from Henry repeating rifle, The
gun in question was Rodman gun of the
smallest size made, and while it may have
been fatal in its effects, and dangerous to
tamper with, the uneducated citizen
would be in considerable doubt whether to
take it for pocket pistol or use it to shoot
ducks with. No wonder they removed il
quietly from the boat to the Arsenal
sight of it would do away with all the ter
ror, that its presence was calculated to
insOire
