All SIGNS FAII.

ONE Of the Congressman elected by
tho democrats in Iowa at the late eleo'
ton was an earnest supporter of the
prOhibitory amendment in that State
last June, SO it seems it vas not liquor
influence that beat the republicans in
that district at least. Agaia, Begole
whom TIE democrats elected as Govern.
or Of Michigan is an outspoksn prehibi-
tisaist. Like rainy spell in Oregon
all signs and excuses seem to fail the
republicans when they attempt TO en-
tighten the people as to the causes Of
their defeat. TIE truth is. the people
were impatient, and sorely tired of re-
publican rule.

THE BEsT CIVIL sERyIcE.

s
MUCH is being said By the public
press of the country, and by members
of Congress in favor of the passage of a
civil service reform statute to purify
the civil service. While some such law
might do something in the way of pla-
cing the civil service on footing inde-
pendent Of the Vaccinations of schem-
ing politicians, yet it will never secure
what the real, honest peopIeiof the coun-
try want, SO long as the very head of
the civil service of the country is mere
ly ward politician, tool of the ma
chine, who, it will be remembered, after
the October election in Indiana in 1880,
boasted that be had carried the election
in that State by FREQ use of "soap,7
meaning thereby that Dorsey, himself,
and others had, by afree use of money,
raised by assessments of government
clerks, corrupted the voters of the State
in the interest OF Garfelds election. II
matters not how stringent law may be
in force regulating the civil service, yet
if the presidential chair is occupied by
man who could make the abovs boast,
then would such law be dead letter.
Such man will always find an easy
method of violating law that stands
in the way of his personal aggrandize.
ment or yearning ambition. Civil ser,
vice reform legislation would be farce
50 long az Arthur has all federal APP
pointments to make. A pare, honest
administration may be had without any
civil service Law, if we have Presi-
dent who is honest and pure, and earn
estIy desires snch an administration,
while it cannot be had otherwise. Then
il remains With the people whether they
will have these reforms or not. The
pslls IS the place to determine it.

of goth inst, speaking of the rain fall
says:
"From the amount OF rainfall al

a repetition of Gov. Whiteaker's faod
of 1861 but there is information that
the rain towards the south has been less

last eighteen or twenty years. About
two years ago, the Oregol.iasa lid its
readers, in very confident manner,

sage to the legislature which met after
the food of 1861, that ''tLere had been
great food, and that if it had rained
more the food would have been great

the time By correspondent of the Ore
go.iian which published the denial with
out comment.
Now in order To fasten this falsehood
upon its authors, we have gons to the
trouble to obtain an extrtet from the
message embracing what the Governor
said about the food, and we appeal TO
all candid readers to say if what is said,

Governor said

the same causes.

HE streamers announcing the sham
battle to take place at Milwaukee would
furnish argument for the ridicule of a
Cervantes. A fort is to be captured.
The Army of the Cumberland and the
Grand Army of the Republic are to take
it. In the grand language of the old
tournament, "the fort belches out def
ance through the roar of musketry and
the mouths of cannon. A terrific charge
is made by cavalry and infantry and the
fort is TAKEN" Think of the glory the
boys in blue have reaped. The chron-
icler has foretold the result in advance.
But won't the boys in blue distinguish
themselves
