Ruby Hamilton, Jim Hasbrouck and a
couple Of other kindred spirits who were
''baching' last winter in a log house on
the suburbs. The boys were all ont of
work and "Aat," and the manner in
which they secured bread, was at least
unique. On the bakers approach all
hands would crawl under the bed leav-
ing note conspiciously on the table,
which read: "Please leave four loaves
to-day will pay tomorrow" The baker
would read the note, cuss his luck and
say aloud to himself "Well l 'spose III

An exchange truly says: the good old
cow has paid off more mortgages and
paid for more farms than any other
known product She is the mother of all
our beef In many household she
catches the wolf on her horns and losses
it far from the door. She has turned the
tide ofour agricultural prosperity in many
parts of the country, from downward
course in raising grain or cotton, to an
upward and prosperous one in raising
stock, grass and hay. Flowers and grass
spring from beneath her feet on the most
barren soil. The old COW don't stop to
enthuse over them, hut converts them
into good, solid, hard cash.
Montana is now pouring a steady
strrcm of the most delicious beef into the
eastern cities ever produced, and the
markets though not high, are firm, and
yield fair remuneration to our growers,
and cattlemen generally are in good spir-
it's. Montana wool is also finding ready
sale at very much better figure than
was anticipated last spring, and wool
growers are also quite happy; yet there
is nothing like the demand for stock cat
tie and stock sheep that there was year
ago. But this should not affect present
owners in the least, for their forks and
herds will increase just as fast now as
ever. and will be quite as remuuerative
venture, and though scarcity of money
may depreciate values somewhat, the
outlook is anything hut liscouraeing.

How Gordon Governed the Sou
dan.

As goyernor-general of the Soudan for five
years, during which he practically annexed
and governed automatically territory very
nearly equal in extent to the United States,
with teeming population, and powerful
hostile faction of slave traders, whom he
crushed out of existence for the time, he
acquired such prestige among the natives
that on his retirement from his functions
he left the whole country in state of pro-
found repose, and In position to furnish a
considerable revenue to the Egyptian gov
ernment He succeeded in inspiring a rev.
erence amounting to awe for his own per-
sonality, partly by the extreme eccentrici-
ty of his method of government, and partly
by his daring and promptitude in action,
until finally it came to be supposed that he
was invulnerable to bullets, was gifted with
supernatural powers, and possessed facul-
ty of divination which could always unyeil
treachery. Holding In bis hands full DOW
ers of life and death, he did not shrink from
exercising them, when necessity arose, even
against persons in high position, while the
extreme simplicity of his mode of life, the
readiness with which he listened to the
complaints of the humblest, his sympathy
with the oppressed, and his stern sense of
justice soon caused him to be as much loved
as feared. Refusing the late khedive's offer
of $4,000 year az his private salary. he
named the amount, which was less than
half that sum, which he considered suffi-
cient, and of this he spent in private chart
ties $150,000 during his term of government,
leaving the country as poor as when be en-
tered it, and leaving it, as all the world lin
the Soudanl knew, because the present khe.
dive would not consent to system of gov
eminent which, in his opinion, could alone
secure the happiness of the people and their
immunity from oppression.

decision who shall and who shall not be pre-
sented at Court, and permitted to present

SO far as men are concerned, this is no great
matter, unless the man wishes to 60 abroad
and get himself presented at foreign Courts.
There is, however, no difficulty about men.
80 long as man has not committed felony
he is never refused-if he can get anybody
who has himself been presented to present
him. We are In this and in some other re-
spects quite as democratic as the most patri-
otto American. But with women it is a
different Meter. As the head, not only of
the stale but of English society, the Queen
will not suffer divorced woman or one who
has the faint of evil repute upon her to
come into her presence. Now and then the
Lord Chamberlain is hood winked. Once a
returned convict, clergyman, think, was
admitted. and will do no more than alude
to the painfnl case of the wife Of legal and

person not properly qualified evades the Wig

Literary Notes.

The "Bread-Winners,' the secret of whose
authorship has been SO we'll kept, will soon be
published in book form by Harper & Brothers.
The edition issued by the Messrs Harper is
the only edition which can be legally printed
on the American continent, the story having
been copyrighted in the United States and in
gland.
The author of "The Bread Winners" has
written spicy letter, which will appear in the
March Century, replying to the charges of his
critics, that: ~ "The Bread Winners Is con
ceived from an aristocratc point OF view. (2)
1t Is not well written. The incidents are ex-
trayagant and untrue to nature; and 81 II is a

Presentation at Court.
Who May Call Upon the Qucen-The Lord
Chamberlain's Delicate Duties.


From London Letter in the Tribune.l
Lord Hartford was one Of courtly as
we'll as warlike race, and figured by turns as
equerry. groom of the robes and lord cham
berlain. The latter is very important Off
cial of the Court, and is distinctly political
appointment. Lord Hartford enjoyed it dur
log the administration Of Lord Beaconsfield,
and discharged his duties to the satisfaction
of everybody. On very grand occasions the
Lord Chamberlain ushers the Sovereign,
and there is popular belief that he walks
backward ike crab, bowling to the monarch
while he trips over his own robe and his
sword gets between bis legs. This Is, like
other popular beliefs, sheer nonsense. The
Lord Chamberlain ushers the Sovereign as
does the president of the Royal Academy or
any other graceful and well-bred gentleman
on the occasion of royal visit. The COM
mon fallacy about this is like that concern
ing presentation at Court. When person
is presented, he, she, or it is told that on no
account must the back of the presentee be
exposed to the Royal eye. How, then, asks
the pdrcenu, can you get out of the roomp
The answer is simple. We never turn our
back upon lady, but gracefully edge away
from her without right-about-face.
The Lord Chamberlain has other and much
more serious duties TO perform. With him,

lures and balance of appropriations of each
department at the end of each month or
quarter. As the city's affairs are now con-
duc'ed, information on these points is not
easily atfainable. The PRESS has requested
such information but thus far has not OBJ
tanned it. We understand that an order re-
quiring the Auditor to furnish such inform
ation to the city council passed the Common
Council some months ago but was defeated
by The Mayors friends In the upper board.
Why was this done? An explanation is in
order. The public are entitled to know
what is being done with the city's funds and
what expenditures in excess of appropria-
lions have been made. In this connection

plain by what authority large portion OF
the amount collected from the Grand Trunk
Railway for past-iue interest was used for

We call attention to the two Auditors re-
ports printed together on the fourth page
this morning. The city of Worcester by or
dinance requires its Auditor 10 maze a
monthly exhibit of the state of it's finances
including each appropriation and he city
debt. This is printed SO that every citizen
can know at any time Tie actual condition
Of the city treasury, as he has right TO
know. But here in Portland it appears to
be thought that the city government is the
Mayors private business, and that the audi
tor is bis bookkeeper Since this financial
year began nobody has been able to learn
anything defuie.about the state Of the ap-
preparations, aud nobody will be able TO as
certain anything. 1t is he Mayors purpose
10 conceal the facts until after the election.

astsiement is not a troublesome OF costly
business. There is no obstacle save In the

Political Rafting.

Occasionally politics turn up to the sur
face men who show little acquaintance with
public affairs or fitness for public Office.
They are generally self-seeking men who
have obtained little notoriety by pushing
themselves before the public and by dint of
constant solicitation have pushed aside men
of more merit bnt less effrontery. Such
men attach themselves to parties for merely
selfish purposes and as soon as they are dis
appointed in securing from any political
party the object of their ambition quickly
transfer their allegiance to the opposite po-
litical camp.
Mayor Deering was an ardent Republican up
TO the time that he failed to secure the NOM
nation for the mayoralty from the Rebuilt
can party. He is now an ardent Democrat.
How much principle he represents in bis
political creed can be judged from the facli-
ty with which he changed his political
status he apparently thinks that politics
is game where the offices are the stakes to
be played for, and that the public at large
has little interest in the choice of incum-
bents. After the exhibition he has fur
nisbed Of indecorus incompetency during the
past year it is difficult to believe that the cit
zens OF Portland will suffer him to hold the
Office another year; and yet, If this result is
not to follow, earnest work must be done TO
circumvent the Vaccinations of Mayor
DeeriDg and his followers. Every Republic
can and every citizen has an interest in the
result of this contest. and much depends
upon the selection of the candidate who is
10 be opposed to him. In the choice of that
candidate every Republican should take
part, and the results of the caucuses next
Thursday evening should be such an ex-
preston of the general sentiment OF the par
ty as will insure the polling of the largest
possible vote at the election.
The work of redeeming our city from the
hands of such magistrate as Mr.. Deering
has shown himself to be, is one that may
well enlist the services Of every citizen.

MIR Chapman Not a Candidate.

Last evening the following letter was sent
by Charles j. Chapman, ESQ, to the chair
man of the Republican City Committee:
PORTLAND, Me. Feb. ~, 1884
WDs ~ Marks, Esq, Chairman Republican C;ty
Committee.
Dear sir-Beleying that the best interests of the
Republican party in the coming municipal campaign
viii not be promoted by any division Of sentiment
arising from multiplicity of candidates. while
highly approaching the confidence of friends who
have generously preferred their support,-I cannot
consent to the further use OF my name as candi-
date for Mayor, and pledge nay hearty support to
the nominee of the tarty.
CHAs. j. CHAPMAN.
In taking this step we believe that Mr.
Chapman has been actuated by sincere and
praisworthy desire to promote a solid and
cordial union of every element Of opposition
TO the continuance of the present admins
tration of city affairs. Although he was
the latest mentioned of the candidates. his
popularity at once made him prominent.
But Y Sseearne appaxent 10 him that q mul,i-
ciplictty of candidates was producing divis-
ions and differences where there should be
only union and strength
BY his action Mr.. Chapman has plainly
shown that he does not consult his personal
interest and ambition, for he had good rea-
son for confidence that the nomination
would come to him. 1t was manifest that
he had numerous body of active friends
who were laboring enthusiastically for his
success. But be recognizes that the need of
the hour is willingness to stand aside if,
By SO doing, greater harmony in effort and
purpose can be secured, and he has act an
example which is worthy Of praise and re
membrance.
In voluntarily withdrawing his name from
lions and no attempt to transfer his support
to another. The withdrawal is absolute,
and those who supported him are left free 20
act in accordance with their Judgment.
There is not a word In bis communication
which savors of disaffection, or can be used
by any one to make strife, and so to defeat
the honorable motive and right purpose of
the act. 1t tends only to harmony and
good feeling.
AS no one understands more thoroughly
the character of the opposition which is to
be encountered In this election, no one has
given higher evidence of his conviction that
good citizens are under obligation to hold
all personal considerations subordinate to
the public duty of rescuing the city from the
control of combination which cannot be
trusted to maintain the municipal honor or
TO rule with wisdom and prudence. Is it
too much to hope that before Thursday
night there will be further simplifcation
of the situation and that the way will be
open for the unanimous nomination of the
Republican candidate?
