Internal Revenue COLLECTORS.

There continues to be considerable
doubt about the Presidents policy witt
respect 70 the Offices. This doubt is showr
by the pressure which is being brought tC
bear upon him in favor Of removing
officials against whom no special charges
have been made. In our dispatches il
was stated that delegation of Indiana
congressman called on the President on
Friday and urged him 10 remove all the
internal revenue collectors in that State
and to fill their places with Democrats.
The President, it seems, doesn't want TO
remove these officials except for good
cause.
Internal revenue collectors have no
fixed term of Office, and If they conduct
their Offices properly they have very
good prospect of retaining them as long as
they want them. If the Democratic party
should remain in power for a quarter OF a
century it is reasonable to expect that
some OF these Republican collectors will
remain in office throughout that entire
period, unless a President is elected who
viii adopt a policy different from that
which President Cleveland appears to
have adopted.
We have always favored civil service
rGform, and we want to see the civil SER
vice law fairly enforced, but we do not
think that the good of the civil service
requires that Democratic administra-
ton should keep in Office officials who do
not come within the jurisdiction OF the
civil service law. That law does not APP
ply in any respect to revenue collectors,
and no civil service reiormer win feel
that the civil service law will be violated
if Republican collectors are removed and
Democrats put in their places.
There has been no hesitation in remOv-
ing foreign Ministers and Consuls and fill
ing their places with Democrats, and there
is no good reason why internal revenue
collectors should be shown particular
favor. 1t may be said, of course, that it
is necessary to have the country repre-
sented abroad by those who are in perfect
harmony with the policy of the govern
ment, but, after all, neither ministers nor
consuls have much discretionary power
They simply obey the instructions fur
nished by the State Department.
The government is about as much in
terested in having the laws relating to in
ternal revenue matters fairly and fully
enforced as it is in having the country
properly represented abroad, and il is rea-
sonable to suppose that Democrats, anx-
ious TO secure for their party the good
opinion of the country, would enforce the
internal revenue laws more satisfactorily
than Republicans would.
The trainers of the civil service law
never contemplated bringing within its
provisions such important officials as in
ternal revenue collectors. Their aim was
to provide the country with an efficient
force of men and women who do the rou-
tine work of the government. If, how
ever, the President intends to give the
civil service law wider application, he
would save himself much annoyance by
announcing his intention.

Discovery in the Royal Forum.


A very important discovery has been made
in connection with the topography of the
Forum. In dressing and carrying back as
far as posi- bic the escarpment of the accumu-
latlOn on the uneXcayated portion of the
northeast side, on which stands between the
Temple Of AntOninus and Faustina and the
Church of st. Adriano, that row of modern
buildings which is ultimately TO be removed
for the completion of the excavations, a part
OF the pavement of the ancient street con-
Meeting the Forum with the Suburb has
been uncovered. 1t lies at a level of some Is
inches below the tagged area of the Forum,
which, II must be remembered, is that
Of the seventh century at the
earliest. The street extends along the south
east side of that part of the Curia which is
now the Church of st. Adriano. The pave
ment is in fine state of preservation, aud on
one side OF the street stands large pedestal,
probably of statue dedicated, as the in
scriptlOn shows, to the Emperor Constan-
tlnus II. by Memmius Vitras.us Orftus, who
was Pr9fectus Urbis from 35j to 359 The
point at which the end of tins street touches
the area of the forum is still covered with
debris and an extraordinary quantity of
masses of marble, such as pedestals of col =
umns. pieces Of cOrDice, and other fragments,
found lying heaped upon one another beneath
the accumulation removed on the carrying
back OF the escarpment some 10 or y feet.
Among these remains is a large portion of the
shaft OF fluted column, cut from a beautiful
colOred marble.

Mrs. Gnrfleld,s Fortnne.

from the cincinnati Enquirer.
The recent reports concerning Mrs. Gar
fields endowment of the Garfield Hospital
and other gossip about the widow Of the mar
tyr President, have created some curiosity
about the lady's financial condition. An inti-
mate friend of Mrs Garfield gives the follow
ing description of her estate: The suhscrip-
ton raised through the instrumsntallty OF
Cyrus W. Field aggregated, when invested
IN government bonds, about S3l2.00 0. zen
Garleld's life was insured for $4,000
the payment of which the companies
for the sake Of the extended az,
yertisemenL it would give them, If for no
other purpose, promptly made. Congress also
voted her the remnant of the salary which
would have been due Gen. Garfield for the
first year Of service as President, which
amounted to $40 600. The little estate which
Garfield left aggregates some $4,000. This
was all that he had been able to accumulate
afte- a life Of unusual activity. This makes
her total estate, in round numbers, about
A50,000 in money well invested. From this an
income of probably $4,000 Is derived. In adj
diuon to that she has from Congress an an
nual pension OF $4,000. which is now voted to
the widows of all eX- Presidents.

Finding a Gold Nugget Under a Stump

From the San Francisco Gail.
''The Mount Moliagul nugget was found in

Victoria, that had made 100 men rich. It had
been thoroughly worked in every direction.
and it was thought that every grain of gold
In the neighbOThOOd had been collected. The
crowd that once made the camp busy scene
OF life dissolved as quickly as il had collected
leaving the shanties to the mercy of the
weather, which soon made them picturesque
ruin. IL was a desolate scene that met the
eye OF the vagrant wanderer. as he came
upon this deserted camp. Of toward the
east there was q solitary tree stump, standing
on pillar Of earth that had not been cut
away by the gold hunters because of the old
roots of the tree that spread through the -oil
Ii was nor more than ten feetin circumference
that had been left by the diggers. One day
two miners came to the deserted camp and
stopped over night on the site of the old camp
1t occurred to them that the ground under
the stump was as likely to prove rich as the
portions of the neighbOring field that had
yielded so much gold. They began by under
mining one de OF the stump, hut before they
had dug in three feet they discovered an enOr-
nous nugget, one of the most valuable that
had been found in the whole diggings. They
continued their labors and uprooted the
stump, but did not find another grain OF gold"

Memorial DIV.

April % has been set apart in the South
ern States as day on which to do honor
10 those who sacrificed their lives for the
Lost Cause. IL is the custom 10 decorate
the graves of the dead soldiers OF the South
with flowers, and TO devote no least a por-
ton Of the day TO the memory Of their be-
roic deeds. The anniversary this year
falling on Sunday, 10 has been decided by
the Ladies Memorial Association Of this
city to postpone the decorations in this
locality until tomorrow.
Owing 10 the scarcity Of flowers this
spring il has been very appropriately
suggested that none but soldiers graves
be decorated, and It has also been sug.
gested that business houses be closed for
a lew hours in the afternoon.
Let everyone who can, bring flowers
and contribute to the celebration of the
day.

A Female Dude Rebuked.


There is class of those female dudes in
Washington who esteem it the proper Uer-

times and upon all occasions. A bevy of
these young women approached Nine. de

a reception in the White House. and began
chattering in more or less broken French, and
she replied in her rather lame English.

The Baroness gave them keen glance and
replied, ''Ges, / speak French, but not in tie

as well as | can"
The party were not duh enough to miss the
rebuke in the calm and ladylike remark, and
the Baroness continued: 81 do not like To
speak French anywhere. 1t is foolish and
frivolous language, and / dislike it. Why
