Col. Bee states that upon assuming
charge of the Office as ex-oficiO Clerk and
in ordering the election he wrote to the
Governor, merely referring to the laws
under which he acted, and he sent no
protest against the authority of any
other person or body in whatever course
might be pursued.
The commission will probably arrive by
tO-day's mail and a special meeting ofthe
Commissioners will be held on Monday
morning to formally place Mr.. FerfIll in
charge of the office. Mr.. Philip NJ. Rus
sell, recently Deputy Clerk, will be made
Clerk under the new Ordinary.

The advantage of this compound over the

Oil is removed, and the whole rendered pala

acted as a great objection to its use; but in
this form the trouble is entirely obyiated. A

M. htat0r II nave no doubt but that
there are great many persons who regard
taxes US the creates, curse they have 10 sub
nit to, not excepting the biblical edict "By
the sweat of thy brow shalt thou earn thy
bread" and that class is right in regarding
taxes as n great curse exactly in the same
degree that il is right in regarding labor as
such. But to rejecting minds that have OBJ
served the circumstances of human affairs,
these two apparent curses are regarded and
accepted as blessings, for taxes sustain and
support the social compact-the admins
trati0n of the laws that shield us from vio-
lence in the pursuit of our affairs, and in the
enjoyment of our property, and it requires
but little reflection to imagine what hor-
ribe condition We should be reduced TO il
we should combine ia refusal TO contrib
ute just and proper amount TO sustain civil
government. Reason and intelligence would
have TO submit TO physical power, and in
stead of the acquisition of property con-
tributing 10 our comfort and security, as the
just reward of our labor and self.denial in
acquiring it, it would make US the target of
the murderer and the robber. But govern
ment and law protect and encourage us TO
the utmost to exert ourselves in the pursuit
of all our lawful objects, and thus the weak

THE SWAIN DIFFICULTY

The position which Judge-Advocate
Swain occupies at this time is not pleas
ant one. A banking firm Of Washington
filed with the Secretary of War very grave
charges against his integrity, and though
they have been withdrawn it is not definite
ly settled as to what steps the War Depart
ment will take, Certainly if Gen. Swain
was of that nice sense of personal honor
and official carefuness and integrity which
the Judge-Advocate General most certainly
should possess, he would have so ordered
his transactions that such charges could not
be brought against him.
Previous to the war this individual was a
very obscure citizen in small town in Ohio.
At the conclusion, Stanton made him a
Major in the regular army over the heads
of regular army officers and the appoint
ment was made at the request of General
Garfield. rhe appointment was political
one and not based upon military merit or
considerations. In the dark plotiings of the
Garfield campaign and in much Of the sub
soil work of Dorsey and others, Gen. Swain
was an active worker. After the election
of Garfield, the Major, in consideration that
he was the custodian of the secrets of the
campaign, asked 70 be made Judge-Advo-
cate. Garfield hesitated for long time, but
finally yielded and made the appointment.
The Judge-Advocate has repeatedly de-
monstrated his ignorance and utter incapac-
ity for the position, aud minor scandals have
before this charge been afloat. The money,
it is said, has been returned to the bankers
who made the charge-many burglar
would be glad to have his charges withdrawn
on just such terms.

THE pOLITTCAL HORIZON

The political campaign is now fairly un-
der way, particularly with one of the two
great parties, and the preliminary work of
State and district conventions is progressing
in view of the national conventions which
are TO place in nomination the candidates
for President and Vice-President
The political horizon is daily growing
more lurid with the glow OF coming events,
and before the great party luminaries rise
into view and solve the doubts and antici-
patiens by the fiat of convention the politi
cal sky will be as interesting to observers in
worldly affairs as was the after glow of the
autumnal sky TO astronomers and students
in celestial phenomena. He must be wise,
indeed, in prophecies who would predict
with any degree OF assurance what the re-
suit of the great conventions will be, and
between what two eminent men the suf.
frages will be divided for the office Of Presi-
dent.
1t can be said that the Republican party
has given the most definite shape TO its poll
cy in regard to nominations. There are
now three leading national candidates for
nomination by that party, Arthur, Blaine
and Edmunds. Logan's self-constituted and
presumptuous candidacy can be called moth
ing more than local movement. Between
the three great names, the main strength of
the convention will be divided on the first
ballot and the order of their strength will
from present Indications, be Blaine, Arthur
and Edmunds Blaine has the most positive
following from his great personality and
politically speaking, his magnetic qualities
1t is the usual fate of leading Presidential
candidates not 10 succeed, and logically de-
Quoting future results from past experience
it is probable that both Arthur and Blaine
will fail to command the support Of the
convention, causes other than mutual OPP
position will produce this effect. There are
more potent and valid reasons which lie
deeper than personal preferences or animos-
tiles Arthur is crippled by serious oposi.
ton i'm his own State Blaine shares popu-
lar distrust, his record is against him, his
party will at once be placed on the defensive
by his nomination His brilliancy and mag
netism will not avail against the convictions
Of thousands who would otherwise supper
the nominee. The memory Of many trans
actions will be up-rooted.
Throwing aside these two great leaders
will the convention take up third man
viii that third man be Edmunds? vii
the mantle fall upon less conspicuou
name, in American parlance dark horse
Or will it go beyond this and have the reck
less boldness to say that il shall be eithe
Grant or Sherman?

We predict that Mr.. Blaine will not
be nominated at the Chicago convention
Henry Clay was always the choice of his
party for the nomination of the Presidency,
but the politicians were opposed 10 him.
So it is to-day with Mr. Blaine, he is the
favorie with large majority of his party,
but the manipulators are opposed to him.

The people of Maine in September will be
called upon TO vote on a prohibition amend
ment to the constitution. Now prohibition
rests on statutory provision, liable TO re-
peal at any time, but engralted into the con
stitution, prohibition would be lifted out of
the domain of politics, and be no longer at
the mercy Of party fluctuations. This vote
in Maine will be looked to with interest, as
showing whether generation of temper
ance agitation in that State has educated
the people up to a constitutional prohibition
of the liquor traffic. So far it is alleged that
prohibtory legislation has not been affected
in Maine, and 1t now remains to be seen
whether majority of the people of that
State will vote for a constitutional barrier.

mittee on Agriculture of the House of Rep
sentatves has reported in favor of the
ping of measure permitting any person
Manufacture apples, peaches and other
Irishable fruits raised by himself tenants

sg In flowing language the report announces
automatic that whatever hampers agr
culture, the noblest and most important of
all the arts, is adverse to national prosperity,
repugnant TO the genius Of our institutions
and the spirit of the fundamental law, and
be justified except times of

Convertible by the producer enhance its
market value, is clog upon it, tending to
reard or restrict production of the natural

In conclusion, the majority informs the
House that "the prevention of wasta,e of
the country's by the repeal of the
laws tending thereto falls within The states
mans province, and that the quantity of
fruit which annually upon the ground
fconverted into durable shape proposed
would add tens of millions of dollars to the
marketable products of the country"
