Cnllectnr of Customs.

In conversation with an ex-public Off
Ger, of Democratic persuasion, yesterday
relative to Govern appointments, lie
said: "The fight for Collector OF Customs,
according to advices from Washington,
has narrowed down to General Young and
Senator McLyman. The General has the
strongest endor cement. His appointment
is asked by such men as Generals Slocum.
Black, SIckles, Horatio King, Rosecrans
and others of that class of men, who are
near to and Influential with the President.
II is seldom that better petition is pre-
sented. On the other hand, Senator Mc-
Lyman is indorsed by Senator Pavne, who
claims the right TO name the Offices here.
He lao has many influential hackers in
addition To Senator p. 1t il di fficult to
say who will come out ahead. Senator
McLyman ia sanguine, basing his hopes
on the ground that the President will feel
disposed to throw the responsibility upon
Senator Payne, while the friends of Gener-
al Young are equally sangnine, on the
ground that the President will feel dispos
ed to crafty The wishes of 40 many Of his
personal friends, and especially OF the
soldier elemcnt.-COm. Telegram.
Had we the ears of the appointing pow
er, or the appointing power by the ears,
we would say to them that there is no
comparison between these two men ms Ia
merit for the position. Gen. Young Is
modest and retiring and has perslStently
refused to be dragged into any tangling al
liances to secure place, often having been
solicited to do so, while on the other hand
Senator McLyman, as Senator. secured,
the passage Of the 100000 Improve
ment bond bill for Toledo and
Lucas county, which will caus,

SOMETHlNS ABOUT COAL.

The following communication from
CAssopol,s, Mich, to the Dowagiao Tines
Of the same county, presents some INTEREST,"
ing thoughts upon the coal plants of this
country;
1t IL snid that no anthracite coal has
been found west OF the Allegan,es. Many
things are snid which are not true. The
sinking of the loor Of the Atlantic from
the weight of sediment raised this oonti-
nenl on which the Goa plants grew before
the m0nntains were created. Continents,
mounlains md Islands nre formed by ocean
currents. An ocean current once flowed
from the gulf of Mexico through this
country, escaping through the area OF the
gulf oi ST. Lawrence,
Our great lakes are the remnants Of this
inland sea When the bottom Of the north
ern part OF this sea wss raised the waters
were turned back and lowed into the Gulf
os Mexico.
Coal lands having existed before the
mountains formed, we are as liable TO ind
coal IN level country rs in n hilly coun-
try. Coal is forced TO the surface by earth
qnnkes Earthquakes are produced by
the perceptihle movements Of lava under
the continents. from beneath sinking ocean
basins. We had dandy little earthquake
here one year ago last TALL.
The anthracite coal on the Jones farm
near Cassopoiis was pressed up through n
crevice in the bed rock of lava. You can
find burnt rock there aa an evidence of the
fact. have traced the lead three fourths
OF mile. The top deposit is three feet
thick aod only 80 feet below the surface,
and covered with slate rock.
There are usually three deposits of coal,
one above the other. The lower deposit
on this farm is down from 100 to 100 feet,
and Ia simply immense.
The people OF Cassopolis little dream OF
the vast wealth so close to their doers. A
alock company should be formed to pros
peci and develop this coal field.
There ia camel coal deposit four feet
thick on the Goble farm, 90 feet below the
surface. James Gobie and your humble
servant will open this lead This fall, just TO

Spirit OF the Cincinnati German Press
OF Monday.

The President has been very busy for
some time past in turning ont republicans
and installing democrats, that even the
most eager Office seekers should allow him
a few weeks vacation.
The democratic war whoop of the last
campaign, "Turn the rascals out" WAS all
hypocrisy and folly, ~ every republican
Office holder WAS considered u rascal. 1t
is not much better for the republicans To
clam every one of the turned-out repub-
licans to he duiiful men, and martyr Of
hls political thoughts. Ii can not be de-
MED that among the thousands of republi-
cans who have been turned ont, there was
many n "rascal" whose removal was a
blesalng to the country. But il can also
lie denied (it has been proven in several
cases) that among the thousand. of newly
appointed democrats, the ''rascal" species
also has its followers. The question il,
among which party are the greatest num-
Der of rascals To he found-among the
turned out republicans or the newly APP
pointed democrats. THIS ia question
which has not yet been determlned.-
VoikSbian.
II the President or the administration
lican organs yell until they are hoarse.
They even make the president, the ad-
ministration and the whole democratic
party accountable for every mistake of a
postmaster. Bnt If the president and his
administration do good deed, then the
same party organs are quiet as a mouse.
They know they can moi say a word against
the pretty hold The president has on the
robbers of the cattle kings i'm Indian Ter

THE BOYS IN BLUE ARE GROW
ING GRAY.

The Boys in Blueare growing gray,
Thin grows our ranks and thinner;
We played Deaths game for many day,
But Death will be the winner.
Mid screaming shot and hurling she'll
Where stoutest hearts might quiver-
Facing the battery's belching hell
Some crossed the Silent River.
Some nanglcd, moaned with tortured breat
Till Death in mercy freed them,
In Prison pens some starved to death
With none but foes to heed them.
Some Gods country gained at last
And died mid loved home faces
With smiles worn off by wars fierce blast
The empty sleeves are traces.
Then close our Ranks rs years roll on
And life's dim sun grows colder,
Face death to come as that that's gone
With shoulder firm to shoulder.
What though above our wasting ranks
No battle flag is streaming,
Gods red and white in mornings light
Der the blue vault is streaming
No more we list to shot and shell,
No more the bullets rattle,
But comrades fall while tolls the bell
As once they fell in battle.
Though scant our muster roll below,
Up there its getting longer,
And faint on Earth our voices grow
FIN Heaven they'll all be stronger.

ulations engaged in in draining Wood

brought twelve miles, out of : its natural
channel, over two ridges, and at a heavy

In the campaign last fall we were talk

ing the reckless expenditure of money by
our county officials when he remarked
that he was fully satisfied that not more
than one.half Of the money collected from
the taxpayers was expended for improve
ments. But what were we gong to do
about it? II the Democrats got in power
he felt eqna lily convinced that not TO ex.
ceed more than one-iourth of the money
collected would go for Improvements. This
is a happy state of affairs for a county
closely dotted with free schools. Is it not
about time for both parties to forcibly ask
these petty tyranis and gamblers who are
running affairs in this shape to step So
far to the rear that they may do the State
some service instead of the county, and put
a different class of men in Office and pledge
them to unearth the rascality aud thIeving
pracliced in the past
