her papers were faultless, not one of them
ever being returned for amendment or cor
rection. From 1871 to 1884 she attended to
the duties of the office, and then her father,
on account of old age, resigned, whereupon
President Arthur appointed her to the place,
it being admitted without controversy that
she was eminently fitted for the office. With
the election of Cleveland, and an opportunity
made for the ''faithfup and hungry" to get
at these things, it was still thought that she
was safe in possession Of the Office.
But it was not long until. a Demo

Congressman Kleiner refused to listen to such

by the election Of Democrat, and one that
would seem to take especial pleasure in in

she is discharged and the position given to a
man. This is a welldefned policy Of the new
administration that women must be displaced
to make room for men and voters. The peo-
pie of Cannelton and Perry county are justly
indignant; but it will avail nothing. The
Democratic party is after votes and the, spoils

Democratic politicians of small caliber is the
removal of Mrs Isabella De la Hunt, post

received while in the service of his country,
she finally became postmistress in his place,

THE Boston Journal says of Mr.. Sherman's

speech:
Before some Of his mugwump critics were
born Mr.. Sherman was in Congress partici-
pating in the struggles which led up to the
accomplishment of these great results. Per
haps he is as we'll qualified to measure their
significance as some of the young persons who
will derde him for reviving the past.
Altogether, the speech is clear-cut and ag-
gressive, and, if it does not please the mug
wumps, there is the satisfaction of knowing
that it was not intended to-. Mr. Sherman is
evidently Republican who believes that an
era of political peace must be preceded by an
era of justice"
The Louisville Commercial, not a Repub-
lican paper, and published in Southern city,
is candid enough to say:
"Senaor Sherman may not have been polite
enough for the present time when he said in
his Mt. Gi]ead speech that he had noticed many
signs of disposition to waive all the glorious
results of the war, but in his protest against
the tendency to obliterate all distinction of
war records he merely echoed sentiment
that is bound sooner or later to prevail again
with great strength The temper of the coun-
try has been against the nursing of old issues
and old feelings, but the present tendency is
to revive in some manner the old discussion
of States rights, and that is sure to revive
the war feeling. Senator Sherman is not a
good party trimmer, but he is All eminently
sensible and far-sighted man."
The Pittsburg Commercial Gazette says:
''To all of his statements we will hear the
customary answer that the war is over and
there is no necessity for waving the bloody
shirt. This answer, however conclusive it
may be to Democratic minds will not explain
the attitude Of the party towards the results
of the war, much less will it excuse the adj
ministration in its policy of always placing the
confederate above the Union soldier in dis
pensing the honors and emoluments Of Office. "

Small Economies.

There was time when farmers were
forced to study the small economies OF
the farm and household, and to provide
for domestic use all those small things
which were needed, as wool for yarn
and yarn for hose, broomcorn for their
own brooms. maple syrup and fat beef.
bacon, wheat for flour and bread. not
forgetting st times some flax, which.
home prepared and spun and woven,
made the everlasting grain bags and the
sheets and towels. Then visit to the
store was rare event, and the long,
yearly bills which now amaze the care
less farmer when the New Year
comes around were happily I'M
known. And then came time
of wealth and waste; when farm pro-
duce brought enormous prices, and
money which easily came as easily
went, and the household industries
were cast aside. Then. too. followed
in due time the Sheriff. and the home
stead, dear to the family, went into the
hands of strangers. But the new habits
were hard to break. until a reign Of
low prices has come which enforces the
most rigid economy and seems to bring
us face to face with these conditions
which prevailed thirty years ago when
there was fully as much domestic com
tort and more real happiness than there
is now, when the farmer buys more
than he sells. 7. Times

Procure rope four times in length

piece in the middle, and commencing
two yards or so from the end, weave it
over ard under each stave about three
inches from the end of each one, which
will bring the rope crossed between
each; do 10th sides the same and your
hammock is complete. One end of the
rope should be fastened up higher than

firm. but when there is any weight on
it the rope becomes ''taut," as the sail
ors say, consequently there will be no
