Ex-sEN4TOR TABORsBL ALOT.

Ex-st nator Tabor learned thing or two
during his thirty days in official life, but
after all, he remained in dense ignorance
of some features of the government ma
chine. Soon after his term as senator ex-
pired, he turned up at Washington, and
through the friendly assistance of two or
three of his congressional associates he
succeeded in closing the sale of bit of
real estate he happened to own at Denver,
to the government, as site for the
new post Office and court hous which at
the last session of congress it was voted to
build. The contract price for the build
ing lot was $65,00O, and Tabor made a
draft for this sum and depos tied it with
his bank at Denver, for collection from
the United States. The draft was duly
dishonored and protested. Having been a
senator, Mr.. Tabor had learned how to sell
his lot, but he had not learned how to get
his pay for it. A Washington letter ex-
plains what Mr.. Tabor did not know, as
follows:
Except in cases like that of Mr.. Ottoman,
money is not so easily gotten out of the treas
ury. Before Tabor can get his money the
attorney general must instruct the United States
district attorney to examine the ex-senater's IL
tie to the property. If his title is good, the
district attorney will forward certified abstract
of it. Upon this the attorney general prepares a
voucher, which must go to the first auditor. If
he approves it, it goes to the first comptroller.
After approving it he sends it to the register of
the treasury, who registers it and preserves it in
the file room. He sends copy to the warrant
room. There the warrant for the amount is
drawn and sent to the treasurer of the United
States. The latter prepares draft in favor of
Mr.. Tabor, drawn on the sub treasury nearest
that statesman, which, after registry in the
Office of the register of the treasury, is mailed to
Mr. Tabor. Mr.. Tabor should possess his soul
in patience.

OKLA nEMAGnGISu

The Boston Herald, has, the courage and
honesty to comment upon plank of the
Ohio Republican platform in a way that
ought to bring the tingle of shame to
John Sherman and Charles Foster. Those
INSCRIPTIONS politicians are in the enjoy
ment of national reputation not to be
coveted. The Herald thus speaks from its
Republican watchtower:
One of the worst bits of demagogy in the Ohio
Republican platform is the demand for an extern
sion of the time in which applications can be
filed for arrears of pensions The limit has al
ready been extended once or twice beyond the
time originally proposed, and the cost of the
measure, which its promoters estimated at from
SIS, 00U GOO to S25, 0O0 900, has run the pension
list up to 500, COO year. 1t is all together
unlikely that any honest claims are still out,
nearly twenty years after the close of the war,
with all the drumming that has been done by
agents. To extend the time is simply to put a
premium upon perjury and fraud. How it can
be made to work is indicated by the detection
the other day of soldier who had secured a
large sum for arrears, and pension for life,
for an injury received in a stone quarry two
years after the close of the war. 1t is time to
put stop to the raid of claim agents. who use
the cloak of patriotism to hide their private
swag bag.

The Trip from washington TO New York
to be Made in Five Hours by the New
Route.
Especial Telegram to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, June 13.-An engineer con-
nected with the Baltimore & Ohio railroad
is quoted as saying, with respect to the
new connection between here and New
York: 'It is proposed TO occupy plane of
the country about 100 feet above mean tide,
and to cross the several estuaries of the
Chesapeake at their more contracted
mouths. The grades to be adopted will
not exceed twenty-one feet per mile, and
the curvatures will range between one and
four degrees per 100 feet. The curves will
be equally adjusted by new scientific
formula for high rates of speed.
"Where will it cross the Susquehanna ?"
"At the Island of Havre de Grace, which
can be seen on the left of the present big
bridge going east. Bridges will be thrown
across there at such a height that no draws
will be necessary"
"What time will be made between here
and New York;"
''The trip will probably be made by
lightning express trains within five hours.
At least such is the present intention. It
will probably be the fastest and best
equipped road in the country when COM
pleted."

THE OLD TICKET.

New York correspondent of the Pitts
burg Traveller, who seems TO view with fear
and trembling the proposition to run ''the
old ticket" in 1884, has this to say:
Possibly the most sincere advocate of Tilden
and Hendricks, is the St. Paul GLOBE Ino of
| the &C.. issues, which l picked up last night.
L noticed that its loaded leader was entitled.
1.-The OldT icket.'' 1t not only demanded the
| denomination of Tilden and Hendricks, but the
selection of such delegates to the national con-
vention as put the ticket in nomination seven
years ago. Many of these men are long since
IN their graves, and the selection would be GER
tainly out of the question.
This correspondent should read more
carefully. Here is what the GLOBE actual
ly proposed:
Not only should the national convention re-
nominate TildeD and Hendricks in 1884. but
every state convention should take for it's can
dldates for electors, the same standard bearers
as in 1876, SO far as they may now be alive and
still residents of the state.
The proposition was not for the same
delegates but for the same electors, so far
as they were living and residing in
the state where they were in 1876. That
proposition is entirely practical. The wish
being father to the thought, the CORES
pondent asserts that the idea of the old tick
ct seems to have ''passed over," and in the
same breath appends aR interview with
a prominent Democrat who declares that
Tilden will accept the nomination. He
thus squelches the Mcdonald boom:
The boom put up for Joe Mcdonald, of Indi-
ana, Is looked upon here as being too premature
The Democratic leaders believe that his name
will come before the convention out of mere
compliment. All are in doubt as to who the
candidate will be. but all agreed that he must
be an Eastern man. The next campaign will
prove bitter one and must be fought by repre-
sentative men of representative issues
1t would be difficult to find any more
repre- sentative men than Tilden aud Hend-
rlcks, or any more representative issue
than the rebuke of the fraud of SIG.

THREE or four newspapers, forming
one of the fashionable groupings demon
mated syndicate. are spending some
money to have the sermons of Sturgeon
cabled from London, for publication, each
Monday morning. There is nothing about
the sermons worth the fuss and expense,
but as an advertising dodge of so-called
enterprise it may serve purpose. There
are thousands of Americans who can and
do preach better sermons than SpurgeOn,

him. The money put into the cable tolls

The board of education of New Bed
ford, Mass, have put into actual practice
that which other towns have talked about,
with only one dissenting vote, depart
ment has been added for the purpose of
instructing the girls in the art of sewing.
Miss Sarah McAfee was elected teacher of
the department at the salary of $500 a
year. The girls in four grades are to sew
one hour in each week under the teachers
instruction. The man who objected to
the new department. said there were more
women in New Bedford who could not
read and write than there were who did not
know how to sew, and it was not worth
while to teach girls to sew as women in
Boston could earn only two cents day
sewing on shirts, land twelve cents day on
pantaloons. The non-progressive views
of the minority of one did not prevail. and
now if the school girls of New Bedford do
not learn how to sew it will not be the
fault of the school authorities.
