THERE are few readers wlro will not
find something in the September number
of Demorest's Monthly Magazine to

well written shorter stories. Among the
articles worthy of note is highly inter

OF being weakened by havil g daily

charges them with cutting their wires
and otherwise injuring and delaying

as an excuse for not being able to
handle messages properly. Where

The Philadelphia Press says the
Indians, at least those along the line
the Presidents r"ute, are now enjoy
ing the novel felicity of seeing and
honoring the Great Father" on their
native plains. Some favored few have
been brought to Washington from
time to time, and have taken in the
President with the other sights of
Washington, but To the mass of the
Indians the President of the United
States has always been myth, which
they yagely comprehended under the
title of Great Father. They haye
learned of his coming, and, as the
Presidents party approaches, whole
tribes turn out to do honor to their
Great Father in genuine aboriginal
fashion. President Arthur's courtly
sNearing will no doubt impress those
untutored savages quite as favorably
as it did Mr.. Watterson.

THE present administration is in
favor Of Civil Service Reform. at least,
it is commonly so reported If such
is the case, why not begin at home {?
President Arthur Is pleasuring in
Yellowstone Park, and the Cabinet is
distributed among the various summer
resorts. Whit is the use of reform
among the poor clerks and officials,
when the highest office OF all is
neglected so much every year? Civil
Service Reform is good thing in its
way, but it seems like folly to advocate
such system under the present adj
minislralion. Let the President set
the example himself When he is so
sadly wanting in duty, it is hard to
establish such system. He should
reform AT home and then cause his ex.
ample 10 be followed, or otherwise the
whole thing will remain ms much of u
farce in the future as it has in the past.

River and Harbor Improvements.

Washington, 29.-The act of August
%, 1882, making appropriations for the
construction, repair and preservation of
certain works on rivers and harbors. and
for other purposes, known as ''The River
and Hsrnor BILL" provided for the ex-
penditure Of $738.875 upon 432 separate
works Of Improvement Plans OF engin-
GERS have been approved by Secretary
Lincoln and the work ordered in all but
nine cases, in which the appropriations
aggregated $3l6,OOO The principal
items of this amount are $2lo. ZOO for the
improver ent and protection of nsviga-
BILE channels of Sacramento and Feather
Rivers. Secretary Lincoln declines to
authorize the expenditure of $1,000 in
eluded in the first item, because the i'm
provement and protection of the channels
of these rivers by the erection of restrain
ing barriers upon Yubs, American and
Bear Rivers, tributaries of the Sscrs-
mento, and further to hold back the flow
of Del Ri,us, caused by hydraulic min
ing, would involve the expenditure
within the next eight years of 1900, 600
with doubtful results, and would at best
prove but partial remedy if hydraulic
mining should continue.

Severe Criticism.

Lightly, and ceased after the same fashion.
The whole scene, it says, would be pain
full were II not supremacy ridiculous. The
only practicable suggestion made by the
convention for injuring Great Britain is
advice to the people OF Ireland to buy
nothing from England, 1t is confess
sion Of impotence when Irish malice is
driven to such paltry expedient. which
if tried would only lnjure its adopters.
The lesson for Great Britain is to ignore
Irishmen and abandon the hope Of bring
ing them to q better frame of mind by the
continuance of unmerited favors. They
have already convinced the rest of the
world that thsy are unfit to have ma
tional independence, and they must be
made to feel the strong hand ofthe law.
