BECAUSE clerks and officials in the depart

BECAUSE clerks and officials in the depart
ments at Washington are making voluntary
contributions to the Republican campaign
fund Democratic papers and the lofty organs
which claim to be exclusive proprietors of the
civil-service plan of political salvation are
filled with rage and disgust. They declare
that the contributions would not be made if
the employees were not afraid Of losing their
places in case they failed to give of their sub
stance, and ask with touching pathos if some
thing cannot be done for the protection of the
governments servants. These sympathetic
gentlemen should wipe their weeping eyes and
give the situation more careful study. The
clerks are afraid of losing their places, but
only in the event Of the success Of the Cleve-
land, Hendricks and Reform party. They pre-
fer security under the party which inaugurated
and sustains genuine civil -service reform, and
joyfully contribute to the legitimate expenses
incidental to maintaining that party's suprem-
acy. The clerks have heard from Mr.. Hem
bricks, who openly advocates change in f'at
least $4,000 Offices, and wisely refuse to en-
courage such bogus reform.

THE Labor World, Of Philadelphia, pub
lished in the interest of workingmen, takes a
very sensible view of the boycotting business,
as carried on in certain places, especially
when the desired effect is sought through in
nocent parties in no wise connected with the
offending party. It says:
ut becomes dangerous instrument when
directed unwisely and in the wrong direction,
as in the case of the Boycotter, in New York,
which, having private grievance against the
New York Tribune, sees. fit to direct all its
force and influence against the Republican
candidates. AL air-minded persons must
admit that to boycott James q. Blaine be-
cause Whitelaw Reid chooses to support him
is the height of injustice, and the Boycotter
will lose much sympathy by this injudicious
course.
The Boycotter modestly asks the working
men of this country to boycott the Republican
ticket because certain Whitelaw Reid is
going to vote for it and support it. To the
Labor World this is libel on the Judgment
Of the workingmen. 1t asks them to vote
away protection, cast down their principles, to
deny their party, to place in power a man that
has ever been hostile to the interests of labor
Was there ever a more preposterous PROPOSE
ton offered to intelligent laborg We do not
object to the Boycotter asking workingmen to
boycott the Tribune but we do object as do
thousands of other workingmen in the
country, to boycotting the Republican ticket
because the Boycotter has apersonal grievance
against Whitelaw Reid.

SINcEit had come to such pass that a
committee Of independent Republicans took it
upon themselves to investigate the Cleveland
scandal, it is a matter Of genuine regret to
every decent citizen that their report could
not orat least did not, go to the extent Of
declaring the whole nauseous story false from
beginning TO end. The good name Of large
body Of American citizens is at stake with
that of Mr.. Cleveland, and for their sake, and
for the sake Of American honor, it was
hoped that there was nothing in the
charge beyond the spite Of few men wrought
up by the heat of national campaign. I'M
fortunately for all concerned, the report Of
the investigating committee confirms rather
than disproves; its admissions are more dam
aging than anything that has yet trans
pired, for they are made by the friends and
admirers Of Mr. Cleveland If any vindica-
ton Of Rev, Ball were required it is supplied
by this report, and it must now be admitted
that national disgrace has been perpetrated
in the nomination Of an unclean man
for the highest Office within the gift Of the
American people The journal has come to
this conclusion reluctantly, and would gladly
see the entire story wiped out. This. how
ever, now appears impossible, and, instead Of

a denial, the best that Mr. Cleveland's friends
can do is to offer an apology, the gist OF
which is that the unhappy woman was a
widow Of easy virtue, and that therefore,
betrayal was impossiblel To ask the public
to acquit Mr. Cleveland after such
shameless admission by his own
friends is monstrous libel on the intelli-
gence and responsibility Of the American
public. It remains to be seen what effect, if
any, this astounding report will have on the
voters of this Republic. So far as the Jour
nal is concerned, it is content to make the
campaign against Cleveland on his record as a
public officer, added to that Of his compatriot
and the party that stands behind them

GOVERNOR CLEVELAND AND REFORM

President-elect Cleveland has written a
letter that pledges him the friend of civil
service reform. 1t does not please the
Observation-Disclosures" Democ-
racy, and that it does not is one of the best
evidences of its worth. Such expression as
this from Governor Cleveland is most en-
conraging;
That practical reform in the civil service is
demanded is abundantly established by the fact
that the statute passed Congress with the assent
of both political parties, and by the further fact
that a sentiment is generally prevalent among
patriotic people calling for a fair and honest
enforcement of the law which has been thus
enacted. | regard myself pledged to this be
cause my conception of true Democratic faith
statutes should be in good faith and without
evasion enforced, and because. in many utter
ances made prior to my election as President
approved by the party to which belong ano
which / have no disposition to disclalm, have
in effect promised the people that this should be
| done.
Mr.. Cleveland should place George II
Pendleton in his Cabinet, and thus fortify
himself by the counsel, aid and presence O
the author of the civil service reform
measure Such an appointment would be
an earnest of sincerity that would be
hailed with enthusiasm.

A correspondent of the Placer Argus,
writing from Iowa Hill, Placer county,
says: ''Ye ears ago John Manuel left home
and family in England, and came here TO
seek his fortune. Every year he added to
his pile, and when his oldest boy was
grown he came to share his labors One
snowy day mighty cave from the North
Star banks crushed out the lads life, and
the father followed him to the grave. The
next son came from England then, and
thew both worked in this same mine till
the father yielded up his life under another
avalanche of earth and stone. 1t was
known that he had money buried some
where, but, though they dug and searched
no one could find clue 10 its hiding-place
In a couple of months the second son was
sacrificed in the same manner and on al
most the same spot where his father and
brother had been killed, and mother and
family in England were bereaved indeed.
The search for the money was given up in
despair, and the Inflated men and their
story were all but forgotten, when this
week a couple of Cinnamon, who speak
good English, told that last summer a
Chinaman working on the night shift in
the old Jamison diggings saw large box
come down with u cave. On examination
he found that it held S. 600 and a sparkling
ring This was doubtless ManuePs money
| for he was known to have taken diamond
| ring for a debt of $3.50. Ii had been hidden
| under the old Ladd house, owned by the
| late Mr. Carder, i'll which house Manuel
| lived at the time of the accident. The
crafty heather told but one persona fell
| low misunderstanding him in secrecy till
he should have departed in safety. The
| finder is now in the Flowery Kingdom,
where he has probably become nabob or
| mandarin by this time"
