The Springfield (Mass.) Republicans
on taking a survey of the political field
remarks: ave have Stalwart Presi
dent, Stalwart Cabinet and Stalwar,
Speaker--all done so quietly that scarce
ly protest has been heard. Wher
Guiteau called upon those men who have
been advanced by his act to contribute
to his defense, he swept over the politica
chess-board with vengeance. That
man Guiteau has made a deal of history,

Judge Tourgee says that in his judi
cial district in North Carolina only five
voters were white men, and yet it was
frequently carried by large Democratic
majority. Does the Judge intend it to
be understood that those five white men
bulldozed the whole voting population of
the district? The story is on par with
many published in the Republican, organs
about election time, and has not even
the merit of originality.

Hon. S. 2. Wolverton of Sunbury has
been mentioned as a desirable candidate
for Governor. We heartily endorse the
suggestion and cannot think of man in
in the State who would more creditably
fill the gubernaorial chair. He is a
man of great ability, unimpeachable
character, fine presence and agreeable
manners and would reflect honor upon
the party that elected him. In every
respect he is a most desirable candidate.

Jesse James, the train robber, is about
as audacious rogue as ever lived lie

agree to sign bond for $l5O,0OO to

Missouri, Arkansas, Kansas, Illinois,
Kentucky and Tennessee will grant them
pardon.

The Pal Mall Gazette expresses sur
prise that the Post Office Department
of the United States is not self-support-
ing. "With about the same income" it
says, "the English Post Office Depart
ment gives net profit to the nation of
nearly f3,000,000 per annum." This
comparison is stupid. The United States
mail service covers an area of 2,790,000
square miles; that of Great Britain and
Ireland, 1920.

The Baltimore Gazette has reached
an Interchangeable conclusion and says 1:

CHICAGO, April 1.-THE approximate
gross earnings OF the Northern Pacific Rail-
road for February were 5000, 900, an In
crease Of 500, ,196 for the same month last
year. The company now operates $50
more miles Of road than In February 1881.
1t now operates 972 miles Of track. For
the 1rst week In March, 1882, the approzl-

The grading Of the Rocky mountains will
be completed as soon as It's final surveys
ase completed about June and the divisiou
finished By the time the tunnels are cnt
through. The Mullen tunnel Of the Rocky
mountains Is 1850 feet long. Two Inger~
solLdrills are at werl going In west through

Ired feet. Engineers propose to sink u
shaft from the summit Of the mountain
and work west. The prospective Of com
junction Of the Utah & Northern with the
Northern Pacific will give the latter COM
pany facility to lay track more rapidly
than was expected at the beginning OF the
survey for the line from d pointin the Vel
