Att Massachusetts republican convention
yesterday, senator Ho,r, III the course of a
speech critciSing the administration, referred,
In the following extraordinary language to the
management of the department. of justice. He
said
w hen in the great Department of Justice

done IL himself
If Senator Hoar had taken any pains to verify
this statement he would have found its utter
falsity, and that few changes have been made
and those in places regarded as confidential
As will be seen by referring TO the news
columns OF THE STAR, only fifteen changes
have been made in the departments pay roll
OF sixty persons, including three laborers who
We're removed for cause and a stenographer
who was urged to remain but would not con-
sent to do so. And, what is more, there Is the
best authority for saying that further
moyals are contemplated, save, possibly in one
or two special cases.
There may be just grounds for censuring the
administrations course towards civil service,
In some respects, but such Incorporate and I'M
founded assertions as those made by Senator
Hoar will only hurt those who utter them.
On the same day Also on which Senator Hoar
was INDUCING in what, perhaps. may leniently
be called careless criticisms, the administration
gave three distinct Instances of its desire to
conduct the civil service on a high reform level
The President requested DIR. Hamilton to with
draw his resignation and remain at the head of

r. A. CHAPMAN, the Milwaukee
merchant prince, has Just completed
what is said to be the most elegantly
finished dry goods store in the world,
which heopened on Monday, April c.
The four mural paintings that adorn
the gables Of the large skylights in
the store are said by a Chicago artist
to be superior to any in this country,
with the possible exception of two
paintings in the Capitol at Washing
ton. When merchant finds it a
profitable investment-and Mr.
Chapman evidently has, for this is
the second store Of the kind he has
erected-to make an art gallery Of
his store, who can say that the arts
tic taste is not experiencing a rapid
and healthy growth in this country?

the removal Of any considerable
number of republican postmasters

suits. There are nearly 10000 re-
publican postmastcrs in the country
at this writing Many of them have
been in office for years. They have
acquired a taste for the gum on the
back Of postage stamps, similar to
that which the morphine-eater has
for his narcotic drug. The licking
Of stamps and the tasting Of this
gum daily has become confirmed
habit of 90 per cent. of these Off
