How Kensuolsy Rexards Il,

Congressman RonERTsoS, Of Ken
lucky, was interviewed the other day
by reporter for the cow'er-Jomna'.
The reporter says:
sThe Congressman created small
sensation in Washington last week by
opposing a caucus resolution offered By
MIR. Willis that the Kentucky repre-
sen,ativcs agree upon certain applicants
for Office and present their names alone
to the President. The majority Of the
delegation agreed with Mr.. Robertson
upon this subject. and the caucus broke
up without endorsing any particular
candidates.
81 do not want my position on this
subject to be misunderstood" said Mr..
Robertson. The fact is, did not be-
lieye that we were elected to say who
should and who should not hold Offices
in Kentucky. The President has never
asked our advice in the matter, and 1t
would he too much like dictation for us
to join in recommending some men to
the exclusion OF others. Then, again,
il seemed to me unfair that We should
try to keep any one but our favorites
out Of office. II is all well enough to
work for our friends, but not to rule out
other applicants.

4 Washington telegram in the phila-
delphia Telegraph says:
" Everybody admires the sand
which the President showed in resist
ing what was probably the strongest
and best-organized raid on a place ever
known. One trouble was that it was
too well organized. Cleveland abomi-
mates such machinery, and the politi-
clans are beginning TO find it out"
He resisted the opportunities OF
nearly two hundred Democratic con-
gressmen in the case alluded TO in the
paragraph aboye--thst is, in refusing
TO appoint Mr.. THOMPSON, Of Ken
lucky, Commissioner Of Internal Reeve
nue.. Surely that is good sign.
Ii means that II the people win satisfy
Mr.. CLEVELAND that q certain ap-
pointment ought not to be made, all
the Democrats in Congress can't cause
il 10 be made; aud also that il the peo-
pie viii satisfy Mr.. CLEVELAND that
a certain appointment ought TO be made,
all the Democrats in Congress cannot
prevent il from being made.

appointments to Office to congressman
Is custom more honored in the breach

Captain Christopher Boyd, whose
wife aud little child were drowned by
the sinking Of the barge John Chase, on
which they lived, on Tuesday night, and
who, with another little child. were
rescued, was yesterday very much inn
proved and rapidly recovering. The
rescued child will probably die from
exposure and exhaustion.
The Captain told the story yesterday
Of the accident after he left the hospital.
He was awakened, he says, by the
rushing Of the water against the door Of
the cabin in which he and his family
were sleeping, and looking up he could
see by the dim light Of small Kerosene
lamp that the floor was covered with
water several inches deep, and that the
waves were dashiDg against the door,
The Captain sprang out Of bed, and
after waking his family, tried to open
the door. He had caught in his arms
ono Of his chldren--the one who was
rescued-while his wife took up the in
FAINT. and with one hand he tried to push
back the door, which unfortunately
opened out from the cabin.
The task he had undertaken seemed
almost impossible. He was only able
to shove the door, beyond which was
wall of water. little way back at
time. and when he pushed it back the
water poured into the little room. The
water rose in the cabin with alarming
rapidity. and as the situation grew des
perate the Captain deposited his little
charge in a comparatively dry place,
and, exerting all his strength, succeeded
in showing back the door and fastening
it there. The frantic cries of his oldest
child brought the Captain to her, and
picking her up almost exhausted he car
ried her on deck to place Of safety.
Returning to the cabin. the Captain
found that his wife had tainted. She
had fallen to the floor. and. with her
child tightly cleSped to her breast, was
entirely under water. Captain Boyd
lifted her and the child in his arms and
staggered up the step, to the deck.
Then he cried out for help, and was
heard by the Waterman at the end of
the Jay-Strcct Pier, opposite which the
barge was lying. Sergeant Carrougher,
Of the Second precinct, who was pass
ing, and to whom the Waterman called,
summoned help and went to the assist
ance Of the endangered family.
The barge was then rapidly sinking.
Mrs. Boyd and her infant were lying
on the slippery deck, and the Captain,
who was completely exhausted, was
standing there helpless when the needed
help arrived. Then it was found that
the mother and infant were dead. They
had been drowned in the cabin. An
ambulance took the father and the child
that was still alive to the IlomGopa-
THO Hospital. and the bodies were car
ried to the Second-prccrnt station
house.
Immediately after the rescue the barge
sank out of sight. She was loaded with
coffee consigned to the Arbuckle Bre-
Tiers. and. with her cargo. is a complete

The New First Assistant.

Washington telegram New York Tribune. J
Mr.. Hay is lawyer, and is said to
be good one, as we'll as a man Of high
character. On all matters relating to
the tariff Mr.. Hay shares the views of
Mr.. Randall as opposed to the opinions
held by Messrs. Carlisle and Morrison.
His views in respect to civil-service re-
form have not yet been ascertained.
There is general desire to know his
position in regard to that subject, be-
cause in the Office for which he has been
named he will virtually control the OIL
cial tenure Of some 10000 postmasters
whose appointments depend upon the
Postmaster-General without reference to
the President or Senate.
Richmond dispatch. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1884-1903, 1885-03-20

the tariff Is not bound up il tho filling
&C Federal Offices. Still less Is u 10 the
control Of any one man, be he ecm-
missioner, Secretary, or President.
We believe President Cleveland TO ne .
sincere advocaie OF an early revision OF
the tariff in the interest Of lower duties
and ffeer trade; but whether he IS or
not. the House Of Representatives =.
and il is the House which will make
the par,y's record and do the party's
work. The issue Of Carlislcism RS. RAN
dallism viii be settled in the Democratic
congressional caucus. IL Mr.. Randall
is really an xous for final decision on
this point, We strongly advise him to
allow Mr.. Cleveland to dispense his pa
.ronage in his own way now, and HIM
self become a candidate for the speaker
ship before the only tribunal which can
pass upon his claims Understandings.
That paragraph shows that Mr..
CLEVELAND has no organ, aud Is
therefore AZ crcditAble TO him as to the
Post itself. We do not like the spirit
OF the paragraph, but We like the Posts
independence and the Presidents reiu-
sal TO have an organ.
The Louisville Commercial reports
an interview with Mr.. THOMPSON, as
follows:
what operated most against you?"
The big patronage Of the plsce. II
was too much power to put in the hands
of the Carlisle crowd. They already
have the spcakership, and this would
have been too able an auxiliary to arm
them with. That was the chief cause
of my defeat"
We have quoted only little Of what
the papers are saying on this interest
ing subjec;-intcrcsting because rather
threatening the thorough harmony OF
the Democratic party. We are not
authorized TO speak for Dir. RANDALL.
but we are confident that we can say
for him that he urged no objection to
Mr.. THOMPSON except his connection
with the Kentucky whiskey manufac-
turers. and that he did not dictate. nor
attempt to dictate, the appointment of
Mr.. MILLER.

Negroes Not Wanted In Arkansas.

A Columbia Is. c. special says: A
citizen of Anderson has received in
formation to the effect that the colored
people from this State who have tiocked
TO Arkansas are having hard time. 1t
is said the Arkansas mountalneers do
not like the idea Of turning the State
into an asylum for negro emigrants, and
violence is threatened. The condition
Of affairs IN few counties is said
to have called for the interposition
Of the Governor for the preservation
OF peace. A band of mountain
GERS in Pope and Conway counties
have ordered the negro emigrants to
leave the State. Upon this Information
the Anderson &. Co. InteH'gencer adj
yiSes the colored people of South Caro-
lima to hesitate long time before leav-
ing State where they are protected in
life and property for State where they
are treated AS intruders and ordered to
leave such counties a. the native white
men do not desire them to settle in.
The people Of Arkansas are evidently
willing to let the negro settle in the
Swamp-landS where a white man cannot
live, and where most Of the negroes
soon die, but not in the healthy pOr-
tionS Of the State.

Civil-SArvica Reform

We are asked TO explain more fully
the civil-service-reform law. We do
not know tina, we can do so. We en-
deayored yesterday to show several iea-
lures of ii.
First, congressman are not allowed
to control any appointment which is
made under the civi!-seryice act. They
may certify the character aud residence
Of applicant, but the appointing officers
are forbidden TO pay any attention to
any recommendation they may make.
Secondly, appointments which are
made by the President by and with the
advice and consent of the Senate do not
come under the operation Of the civil
service act. Consequently, congress-
mems recommendations NAV be re-
ceived or heard by the President in
these cases.
Thirdly. in the case Of offices where
there are not fifty employees, the law
does not operate Therefore, congress-
men may recommend to these Offices.
Soon after the law was passed, the
Ciyil-Scryice Commission. with the aid
and sanction Of President ARTHUR,
drew up a number Of rules. These,
with certain regulations since adopted,
now govern appointments to that por-
ton Of the Government offices or places
to which the law applies. One of the
rules provides that three branches Of
the service shall be classified under the
civil-service act. but shall not include
laborerS or workmen, or officers re-
CURED 10 be CONFIRMED by the Senate.
This. for example, shows that the post
Office in Richmond does not come under
the operation of the law.
The three branches Of the service
classified as above stated are as fol-
lows:
/. Those classified ia the depart
ments at Washington shall be desig-
mated The Classified Departmental
Service"
2. Those classified under any col
lector. naval officer. surveyor, or APP
praiser in any customs district, shall be
designated The Classified Customs
Service
}. Those classified under any post
master at any post-otice. including that
at Washington, shall he designated
4" The Classified Postal Service"
4. The Classified Customs Service
shall embrace the several customs dis
tricts where the officials are as many as
fifty, now the following New York
city, \. V; Boston, Mass. Philadel-
phia. Pa. San Francisco, Cal. ; Bslti-
more, Md. New Orleans. La. Chi
cago. III. 4; Burlington, Vt; Portland,
Me. /; Detroit, Mich; Port Huron,
Mich.
). The Classified Postal Service shall
embrace the several poSt-ofiiceS where
the officials are as many as fifty, now
the following: Albany, y. Y; Balti-
more, Nd; Boston, Mass. Brooklyn,
n. Y; Buffalo, n. Y; Chicago, Ill. A.:
Cincinnati, o. ; Cleveland, o. I; Detroit,
Mich. ; indianapolis, Ind. Kansas City,

phia, Pa. /; Pittsburgh, Pa. Providence,
X. L.; Rochester, n. Y; St. Louis,
Mo. San Francisco, CAL. Washington,
ID. G.
And so forth. 1t would seem clear
that the number of valuable offices
coming under the operation Of the civil
service act is small. The law seems to
be construed to apply to none but
clerkships or what might well BE- termed
clerkships.

his opinion the reverse Of that PROPOSE
ton was true-he thought that for
breakfast good beefsteak was better
than nothing.
So we would say to the World that
the reverse of its statement is true for
