Editorial Correspondence.
LANSING, Ian. Q, 1873;

LANSING, Jan. 9, 1883.
This morning the standing COM
mittees were appointed. In-the SEN
ate the appointments are very gen
orally popular and seem to be gener
ally recognized as placing the right
man in the right place. The Sena-
tor from tho goth, our district, is
placed as follows Ist, on Mechan-
ical Interests I'd on Geological
Survey of the state; sd on State
Public School sd on Printing.
Giving him fair position and from
what we have seen Of Senator Frisbie
since our arrival here, we think he
will make an able, candid and popu-
lar Senator.
The committee appointed by
Speaker Howard do not seem to be
as generally popular as are those in
the Senate, among the members, but
from what we know of the gentlemen
of the House, we are inclined to be
lieve that the selections have been
well made in most cases, and ought
to be satisfactory, at least, to the
Republicans who have the Chairman
ship Of every committee. The mem
bers from Shiawassee are placed on
the committees as follows; Mr..
Van Dusen, 9Th on Agricultural
College and 5th on State Capitol and
Public Buildings. Mr.. Potter is 4th
on State House of Correction sth
each on Horticulture and on State
Public School. Our long time
friend, Mr.. Wheeler, of Barry, is Ist
on State Public School for the Blind |:
I'd on Religious and Benevolent
Societies and sd on Liquor Traffic.
He is also Chairman of the Special
Committee appointed under the
following resolutions:
RESOLVED That there be a
special committee Of three appointed
to inquire whether unjust discrimin
atoms upon local freights by the rail-
roads Of the state are made.

Put Him on the Retired List.


There is a bill on the calender OF
the National House of Representa-
tives proposing to place Gent Grant
on the Retired List of the Army with
the same rank and pay he would
have held had he not been called
from the military service to be Presi-
dent. This bill passed the Senate
at the last session by very decided
majority and we trust the House
will concur in its enactment promptly,
cordially and as nearly as possible
unanimously.
No matter what differences of
opinion may exist as to the wisdom
of his course as President, all men Of
all parties substantially agree that
during the war Gen'l Grant rendered
to his country services of inestimable
value; services deserving every pos.
sible, honorable recognition from the
Government of the Union he aided
so greatly in saving. In the public
opinion Of the generation now living,
and it will be the record of the
historian of the future, in the impair
tial history yet to be written of the
stormy days of the Rebellion, that
Ulysses S. Grant was the ablest man
of the five who attained rank Of merit
for generalship above and beyond
the great host of heroic commanders
who battled against the Rebellion
and won the victory for Nationality.
Of these five, Generals Thomas and
Meade are in honored graves, CRATE
fully remembered by all for their
glorious deeds Of heroic valor; Gen'l
Sherman is soon to go on the Re-
tired List with the full pay and rank
of General, honored and revered as
few Americans can ever hope to be-;
Sheridan, the gallant hero of Win
chester, will in short time assume
command of the Army with the
rank of Lieutenant General, which is
to be his for life, just as it should be.
In view Of the facts so familiar TO
the men of TO dav. we submit that j;
is not altogether pleasant thought
that the man who came out of the
war conspicuous above all others for
his military skill, for his services and
his rcnown, should be left in the after
noon of his life unrecognized on the
rolls of the Army he did so much to
immortalize, for the simple reason
that the people on time called him
into the civil service of his country.

The Civil Service Bill.

To the great surprise of the people
of the United States, of all political
parties, and to the great disgust Of
all "boss politicians" the House of
Representatives, OH Thursday, by
the decisive vote of I55 yeas to AZ
nays, without amendment, and with
out extended debate, passed the
Pendleton Civil Service bill as it
came from the Senate under the op.
Grafton of the previous question.
Few expected this and fewer still of
the people desired it, yet the bill is
undoubtedly one that has decided
merits and will prove in some re-
spects of great practical value to the
people. Its passage is doubtless due
to the fact that many of the Repre-
sentatives in Congress have come to
the conclusion that the best thing
which can come to Congressman is
TO make it impossible for him to have
a hand in dispensing public patron
age, and possibly this may be true,
though we doubt it. But the bill has
passed Congress and the President
will doubtless sign it and the country
will soon know whether ii is tor the
public interest.

1t is claimed that under the law in
Connecticut, as determined by the
Supreme Court, so many illegal votes
were cast for the Democratic State
Ticket, that the Republicans by their
rejection, have majority so large
that all of their candidates are
elected. These we're the black tick
cts printed in white letters, while the
law says the tickets "shall printed on
plain white paper" AS the court is
composed of the ablest jurists in the
state, comprising men Of both politi-
cal parties, and the decision was
unanimous, it must be presumed to
be the law and yet we should dislike
to hold an Office elected by a minori-
ty Of the votes.

AS an indication of the rapidly
growing business interests of this
country, it may interest our readers
to know that during 1882, there was
constructed in Michigan gag miles OF
railroad in the United States 49,
s3S miles of railroad, about one half
of which is laid with steel rails and
most all Of which is thoroughly
equipped. And that all the railroad
companies have been doing a fair
business the past year, especially
those east of Chicago.

About the first, if not the first Of
fetal act of Gov. Begole, was that OF
signing a pardon for William Holt,
convicted in May. 1865, of murder,
at Detroit, and sentenced to Jackson
State Prison, for life. We believe
this is the first pardon that has ever
been issued in case where convic-
ton for murder in the first degree
was the verdict of jury, except in
one or two cases when, after convic.
ton, the most positive evidence of
was found to exist.

member OF Congress. Speaking Of

showing the country that its verdict
OF last October and November was
