patch in completing and forward me, and
we will have draft back just as quick as

had been made, from any cause whatever,
and payable Immediately ON proper pro-
duction of proofs of death, as all our poll
cies are. Hoping to hear favorably from
you, lam very truly,

We regret exceedingly, after the sad
and deplorable occurrence of last week
Wednesday afternoon, that the name of
Hon. VIM. Sheffield figured in one of our
political squibs of that week. But it
must be remembered when we learned of
the death of Mr.. Sheffield it was after our
forms had gone to press, and the item
penned when Mr.. s. was in life, and a
prominent political opponent. We are
not in the habit of apologizing for what
is said in our political columns, especially
in the midst of campaign, but in the
above case, and the fact of the untimely
death of Mr.. S., it is no more than justice
to those whom 1t wounded, and to our
selves as well, that we make this expla-
nation.

General Grant en- our relations with

his grievances In q harangue which
was as remarkable for Its malicious
vindlctiveness as 1t was for Its entire
lack of time!iness. He denounced
the members of the Chicago conven
tion who refused to be bound by the
unit rule, declared that the re.
suit had retarded the growth OF
the country for at least ten years, pro.
nounced the fight against bossism a
contest of ~mediocrlty against superior.
ity, and In conclusion spoke Of the
influential men who surround the pres.
ent administration as ''merely playing
push'pin over the rat and rubbish of
low, tricky politics"

THERE is new trouble In the civil
service commission. The publication
Of their rules which appeared last
week In the eastern papers has given
high offsnse to the president and cab.
met, who had them under considera-
tion at the time. A member of the
cabinet Is authority for the statement
that If the president discovers that
any one of the commissioners was a
party to the publication his r~esigna-
tion will be asked for at nee.
This Is q grea. ado about nothing.
The most ridiculous thing about the
whole matter are the rules themselves.
The three "R's." are to be made the
test of an ofioe.seekers ability to
serve the government and postofices,
and custom houses, where over fifty
clerks are employed are the only
branches of the civil service outside of
the departments at Washington which
the rules are to affect. With the ex-
ception Of a few hundred low grade
clerks the civil service Is totally IN.
touched by the high sounding reform
measure and Its high priced
commissioners. The entire affair
Is a sham and was known
to be such at the time
of Its passage. 1t will produce about
as powerful results In reforming the
civil service as the bite of a mosquito
on the tough hide of JUMBO. The
publication of the rules may have
been premature, but they were not In
any sense as premature as the crea'
tion of a commission whose only effect
has been to create a few more Offices
in the hope of choking down the cry
of man milllner patriots for civil serv.

ARMY scandals are generally
hushed up for the good of the SER
vice, but occasionally they force
themselves upon public attention.
Since the Reno trouble there seems
to have been a lull, and yesterdays
papers opened the ball by announcing
the enforced resignation CT Lieuten-
ant Colonel Ilges, n of the bravess
of our Indian fighters, the assigned
cause being drunkenness and dupll-
eating his pay accounts. The same
dispatches bring news of the divorce
and second marriage of Major Nick
erson, veil known In Omaha as a
former aide to General Crook.
