Hon. Jacob A. Ella, Sixth Auditor Of
the Treasury, died in Washington on
the 21st inst. He was from New
Hampshire, and had represented that
state in Congress two terms. He was
appointed Fifth Auditor of the Treas
ury in 1878, and from that transferred
to the post of Sixth Auditor Of the
Treasury, Post Office Department.
Having been intimately acquainted
with Mr.. Ella several years, we feel it
duty to speak of him at this dis
lance from the scene of his labors
No officer in any department at Wash
ington ever won the profound respect
of every clerk under his supervision
more fully than Mr.. Ella. When the
President transferred him to the Sixth
Auditors Office in 1878 all the clerks
in the Fifth Auditors Office felt they
had lost a friend. And so it turned
out. A young man from Indiana got
the inside track, and received the APP
pointment to fill the vacant position.
He proved to be self-consequential
and arrogant officer, proud of his posi-
ton, and we learn that those under his
authority are to this day signing for
deliverance from his rule. These state
ments may be of no consequence to
the general reader, but this paper may
fall into the hands of those who will

Those who have never seen the
Washington monument, the highest in
the world, which has been SO many
years in building, can easily imagine
the exciting scene last week, when the
perilous work was being done prepare
tory for the stone roof:
WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. 21.-
There was lively time on top of the
Washington Monument to-day. The
work of raising the high timbers for
placing the roof stones in position be-
gan soon after daylight. The purpose
was to have them secure before dark
in case of a storm at night. About 2
O'clock, when the last of the timbers,
some of them being seventy feet high,
had been raised and was partially Sc
cured, a heavy wind-storm broke over
the city. 1t was time of great peril,
but the working force stuck to their
posts and under the directions of those
in charge the huge timbers were Sc
cured in spite OF the storm. The work
continued well into the night by the
aid of the electric light on the Treas
ury and Smithsonian Institution. Be-
fore II o'clock the main timbers of
the hosting apparatus were in position
and everything was solid"

REPUBLICAN, STATE CONVEN.
TION.

The Republican State Convention
meets at Madison on Wednesday, Sep
TENDER Sd. It is almost certain that
all the present state officers will be
nominated for reelection. We have
seen the names of no other candidates
proposed for either of the state offices,
and it is taken for granted that there
is no desire for a change. The State
Convention will be harmonious, and the
ticket presented will receive the unan-
imous approval Of the Republicans of
Wisconsin. On the afternoon of the
day Of the Convention there will be
a mass meeting on the Capitol Park,
which will be addressed by Gen. Logan
and U. S. Senator CuIlom, of Illinois.
