THE REPUBLICAN FACTIONS.
A New Development of the Old Fight BE
tween Conkling and Blaine.

tween Conkling and Blaine.
Washington special to the Cincinnati Enqu rer.
The chief political intrigue at Wash
ington is a new development Of the
fight between Conkllng and Blaine.
Garfield being dead, Blaine is playing
Mac Antony to him, and is to give the
ora ton in the house of representatives
during the next month. This frets the
stalwarts dreadfully, and they have
been tampering with Garfield's old
friends, Swain, Rockwell, Boynton and
others, some of whom were jealous of
Blaine coming into the cabinet, and
Others of whom accuse Blaine of max
ing war under Garfield's cover, on
Conkling, and using Whitelaw Reid,
who was Blaine's rather than Garfield'S
friend, to command Garfield to nomi-
nate Robertson, in this way losing
Garfield his life and putting the noses
of his personal staff out of joint.
1t has been charged by Grant and
Conkling man on one of the leading
New York papers, supposed to be &C
quainted with the newspaper secrets,
that one of Garfeld's own staff before
mentioned gave Whitelaw Reds let
ter away to the Herald. The name of
this person would excite surprise If 1t
were known. He may be falsely &C
cused, to cover up the real thief, but
his name is being used. Mr.. Blaine's
friends are not too nice in their refer
ences to Garheld's Ohio staff. One OF
them, they say, played cards for llv-
ing, and put business into Garfield S
hands as a congressman, and then su-
pervised a large part of his admins
tration on the strength of the Secret
obligation.
Conkling is trying to lift the load Of
obloquy off his own shoulders by
throwing it on Blaine's, as the man
who had Garfield killed to carry out
his revenge, making Garfield remove
Merritt, and thus whetting Gulteau.
Rather than see Conkling relieved

Everybody wants it, but very few get it, be-
cause most people do not know how to select
coffee, or it is spoiled IN the roasting or making.
To obviate these difficulties has been our
study. Thurber's package coffees are selected
by an expert who understands the art OF blend
ing various 1avors. They are roasted in the
most perfect manner Git impossible to roast
well in small quantities), then put in pound
packages lin the bean, not ground,) bearing
our signature as guarantee of genuineness,
and each package contains the Thurber recipe
for making good coffee. Wepack two kinds,
Thurber's "No- a." strong and pungent;
Thurber's "No. A." mild and rich. One or
the other will suit the taste. They have the
three great points, good quality, honest guam
tity, reasonable price. Ask your grocer for
Thurber's roasted coffee in pound packages,
"No. "a" or "No. A." Do not be put off
with any other kind-your own palate will tell
you what is best.
Where persons desire it, we also furnish the
'Ideal'' coffee pot, the simplest, best and
cheapest coffee pot in existence. Grocers who
sell our coffee keep them. Ask for descrip-
tive circular. Respectfully, &C.,

guaranteed to be of superior quality, pure and

In an interview between prominent colored
republican politician and President Arthur, in
connection with the independent movement in
Georgia, the latter is reported to have said to
his caller that as men Of his color, and all OF
his stripe of politics, had possession of the
southern states from 1868 to 1876, and lost
them by want of proper management, the best
and only thing for them to do was to unite
with the leaders of the new movement. In
closing the interview the president said: elf
these men are to conquer they will want the
offices OF their state and they ought to have
them"

THE Kinney county wool growers
have been holding a meeting, and they
selected their chairman to prepare a
memorial to Congressman Epson,
touching their interests. The most
dangerous disease now threatening the
wool interest, is democracy-the tar

TEXAS republicans are still hopeful
that Ex-Governor Davis will get ca
binet position. - Beaumont Enter
prise.
The republicans of Texas may be
hopeful in this matter as long as the
cabineti is an open question, partlcu-
larly so if the president takes the south
into consideration. Governor DAVIS
is at home attending to his private al
fairs, not at all disturbed by the course
events have taken at Washington. The
southern republicans pressed the ap-
pointment of Governor Davis during
the earlier days of Mr.. Ar,hur's ad-
ministration, and received the assur-
ance that if the south was considered,
Governor Davis would be consulted !;
since then all pressure has been with
drawn and the president relieved OF all
importantly on the part of southern
republicans. The intrigue now going
on at the capital is beyond our finding
out. The cabinet remains half finished
and the president seems very slow IN
making up his mind. Quite Texas
delegation have appeared at the capt.
tai since Mr.. Arthur's accession, and
each man left Texas in high expecta-
tons for that Mecca of office-seekers,
bidding US a cheerful goodbye and
promising to keep us posted, and then
he heard no more. They seemed to
pass into oblivion; the "red ranger of
the Rio Grande," Tom Ochiltree, the
hero of the long bow, the inimitable
blanket-stretcher, alone relieves the
silence and darkness by an occasional
flash in the public prints. The big state
Of Texas seems like small potato in
the national hill.

few were more eminent than this dead
statesman. Upon political issues that
have ceased to agitate society his opin-

none now to pronounce his eulogy,
none so poor as do him reverence.
Such is fame.
J. H. RIDGwAy, patentee and bull
der of refrigerating cars, has made a
proposition for Guiteau's body which
has been accepted. To the effect that
the body is to be preserved in a refrig-

the principal cities ofthis country and
Europe. To do this he expects to
make an outlay.o SIS, 900. The pro-

to the Indictment and will stand their
trial in due course of law. 1t has not

Tus GREAT SUIT.

Reference is made 10 the question at
law that puts the miners OF California
on the one side and the farmers on the
other. 1t is a very important matter
and interests us Of Nevada by sympathy
chiefly for the miners. The debris
suit. however, Notwithstanding all its
gravity, has been made subservient to a
trivial purpose. L. L. Robinson, Presi-
dent Of the Albion, got hold Of a coun-
try paper, while on his way to San Fran
cisco lately, which was written IN the
ablest and most pleasing n He
was carried away with it as far as he
went. He had nearly finished reading
the country journalists Ingenious and
powerful argument in favor Of hydraulic
mining, when the train stopped at the
Oakland wharf. and he put the paper in his
pocket. Full Of delight he rushed up to
his Office, gathered some friends about
him. and started in to read again.
They listened with hated breath, owing
to Mr.. Robinson's glowing praise OF the
article in question, as well as to TIE TACT
that the style OF the composition was
irresistible. The reader went on elo-
quently without stop or stay. carrying
his audience headlong with him to the ca
tastrophe, as the play people say. The
grand conclusion was an advertisement
OF Saint Jacobs oil. The farmers side
came next, and was presented with the

up to the time Mr.. Robinson was last

THE D~EMoCRATTC JONAH.

A contemporary truthfully says: The
Democratic party has been troubled with
a Jonah for nine years. He is now a
wise prophet or leader. for during these
nine years he has quarreled with three
Mayors of New York City, two Gov.
ernors Of the Empire State, beaten one
Democratic candidate for Governor and,
by his actions as a leader, defeated a
Democratic President, and last, but not
least. just given the Empire State to the
Republicans. He is obstinate, piggish,
determined to rule or ruin, and SO long
as Democrats look upon him as belonging
to the party, just so long will he defeat
the result at every election.
