FOR COUNTY SURVEYOR,
HENRY NJ. NICOLS.

THE Buffalo Courier, in its Wash
ington dispatches, speaks Of the rail
road speed at which changes are be-
ing made in fourth-class postofhces
and then tries to make out that it is
done for the good of the service. But
IT discloses the African in the wood
pile by stating that the larger portion
of the changes are made in New
York, Ohio and Virginia, the three
great doubtful States where impor-
tant elections are pending. Such is
''rcform."

Piles are frequently preceded by sense
of weight in the back, loins and lower part
of the abdomen, causing the patient to sup
pose he has SEINE affection of the kidneys or
nei2hboring organs. At times symptoms
OF indigestion are present, as tiatulency, I'M
ea>iness of the stomach, etc. A moisture,
like perspiration, producing very dis
agreeable itching, after getting warm, is a
common attendant. Blind, Bleeding and
Itching Piles yield at once to the applica-
ton of DIR. Bosanko's Pile Remedy, which
acts directly upon the parts affected, alb
sorbng the Tumors, aliaying the intense
itching, and affecting a permanent cure.

DEMOCRATS.

MIR. CLEVELAND AND THE OHIO
DEMOCRATS.
The Postmaster General has come
TO the aid of the Ohio Democracy dur
ing the last few days, anda continuation
of the shower of patronage he has been
pouring out will do much to revive the
spirits that dropped. 1t is no extrava-
gance of speech to say that without
some help from Washington the party
here would have been in a bad way,
and there are many who believe that
the long and chilling wait from March
4 to Aug. has resulted in mischief
that even prompt action now cannot
redeem. 1t has been an open question
for some time as to whether a resolu-
ton endorsing the Administration could
be got through the Democratic State
Convention, but all doubt of that has
been dispelled. The leaders OF the
party in their cool moments have ar.
rived at the conclusion that such re-
fusal would place the Convention in a
pitable light before the country, and
would do President Cleveland more
good than harm. They also recognize
the very solid fact that no matter what
they may say or do, Cleveland holds
the whip hand for three and a half
years longer, and can make severe
individual example of such aspiring
Democrats as oppose the course he
has thought best to pursue. So they
will endorse him. Their language will
be cordial and hattering enough, no
matter what may lie in their breasts.

AT THE TOMB.

The Tremendous Rush of the P"puIacc and
| the Thousands of Visitors.
Tho great plateau extended oven that
portion Of New York from the Eastern
boundary of Central Park for miles up
the Hudson River to what is known as
Manhattanville, and of which Riverside
Park is the Wcstean boundary, suddenly
found its scanty population quadrupled
before noon and on every cross street
and every avenue along the elevated rail-
road on the West side and overlooking
though some invading army had landed
the at lowest point on Manhattan lslard
and was driving Tie populace slowly bnt
surely out into the river. Every street
was a stream of humanity. On the ele-
waited trains, in over packed street cars
and in hastily improvised baggage
wagons and along the dirty streets of
this unfinished section Of the metropolis
nothing was to be seen but moving
masses of men and women. Every point
of land was covered by the moving tide.
Many had fled to unblastcd rocks, appar-
emily t" avoid the coming flood of people.
For miles behind was the apparently
victorious army. Strange giimpses of
moving columns broad flashes of scarlet
coats and gold lace, the tramping of
many horses the rumble of artillery, the
blare of trumpets and roll of drums
told of the coming pageant.
1t was the extreme Northern end of
the park. a broad, rolling plateau 800
feet above the Hudson, embracing twenty
or thirty acres OF new ground, that had
been selected for the final ceremonies.
1t is a beautiful site. The level is broken
by numerous knobs topped by waving
pines. At the base of the first of these
the tomb itself. The workmen had Just
completed the interior and the imple-
ments for making the final fastenings
were lying on the Sward behind it. In
front was the heavy copper covering for
the casket and the soldering irons were
already in the fire. There are two knobs
further to the right. and on the further
one of these is tho Claremont Hotel, it's
broad porches completely enshrouled in
mourning. Long tables had been set
here for the refreshment of distinguished
guests, but for the most part they were
untouched. Through the tree tops, I'M
der The high bluff in front of all could be
discovered the tall masts of the naval
feet anchored under shelter of the shore.
Far away the light and shade played
upon the ripping waters, and the white
cottages along the distant shore lay like
snow banks in the sun.
HANCOCK's ARRIVAL.
At 11.05, Major-Geheral Hancock. his
white moustachc and goatee looking like
chalk marks on his sunburned face, ar
rived. His horse had given out on the
way, and he accomplished the remainder
of the trip frS,n hundred and fifth
street, in landau which was conviently at
hand. Immediately behind him came his
military staff, the detachment of regular
troops and a military band, with their
scarlet coats and glittcrng brass instrn

mcnts, and the corps of marines, in duck
trousers, blue blouses and white hats.
The oak AMI hrmlncks protected the
troops and the crowds that were gathered
catafalque to the tomb.
On the knoll above the temporary tomb
is a clnmp of trees, which afforded shade
to the Park Commissioners and a few
people who had passed the lines. The
driveway around the hill, under those
shadow the tomb neStleS, looked like
picture was one long to be remembered.
General Hancock, who had by an accl-
dent arrived earlier than he had been cx-
pected, sat on 4 camp chair chatting with
the authorities, Facing him was the
splendid line of the 18th Reg iment stretch
ing out almost an eight of mile, and
waiting at parade rest like statues. In
der the trees on another hill to their left
were gathered the members of the staff
and their horses, and on the Eastern side
of the concourse was the crowd. 1t was
a large crowd, an orderly gathering,
which packed three grand stands and
had so good view that it waited with
patience.
The space in front was well filled, and
fully go, 900 people waited anxiouSly for
the bugle sound to announce the ap.
proach of the column. In full view of
all was the tomb. host of policemen
found little difficulty in keeping their
line, and the troops shaded by the dark
leaves of the oaks seemed like statues.
1t was after three hours waiting when
the sullen drum beat was heard in the
distance, and it seemed to bring every
one to their feet, and the look of expec-
fancy was as apparent as if an electric
battery had touched each one. All
turned in the direction from which the
procession was to come. 1t was quickly
the centre was filled. The Carriages de-
posted their burden and rapidly drove
away and the casket was lifted from the
catafalque with all expedition possible
The crowd that gathered about the door
of the tomb was singularly democratic.
and efforts to keep any order of prece
dence were speedily abandoned.
None who looked 'own from the little
emincncc will ever forget the sea OF faces
that they saw. The gray heads were
uncovered and the bald ones rcckleSsly
exposed to the glare of the sun, for no
trees interposel their shade. Policemen
forgot their duty and crowded in upon
the cottin, OF course they did not lift
their hats, and they seemed far more in
tent upon seeing themselves than in pre-
venting others.

has come to Prescott from his ran
ches, and tells us that in two weeks
he will start for Kansas city several
car loads of horses, mules and cat
tie. lie is the first citizen of Nor
thern Arizona who tried the expert
ment of shipping cattle to Kansas
city. His first shipment was made
under difficulties and was not a fl
nancial success but he has learned
wisdom from experience and will
from now on make the business a
paving one. Mules raised by him
are not large, but are wanted for
street car lines in Kansas city and
for work in fields farther south. His
cattle are large; horses not large
but tough. This movement, which
was inaugurated by him will grow
to be of great benefit to this por-
tion of Arizona, stockmen of which
arc now compelled to ship their
surplus animals out of Arizona.

Hon. f., N, Sanford,

We cheerfully extract the follow
ing complimentary notice from the
Mohave County Miner: ''From ma
ny sources public and private, we
gather the pleasing intelligence
that our friend, E. NJ. Sanford, of
Prescott, is steadily and rapidly
rising toward the top of the legal
profession in this territory. And
why should he not? He has brains,
pluck, energy and is full of work
ing power and disposition. This
memorandum springs from the fact
that We have just gone over his
tracks in o case, the decision Of
which we knew would seriously ef-
feet the interests of the printers.
We refer to the case of Smith d Co.
VS.. the County of Mohave; and we
could not but admire the patient,
laborious and exhaustive research
he has made respecting the law
points involved and which labor
resulted in a victory for his clients.
We commend him to the people of
the territory as one of its best-read
attorneys, and as an honorable and
courteous gentleman.

Of Springer are in sympathy with

number of brave men have volun-

citement is intense, and much un-
easiness is felt for the approach OF

it may bring forth. The people OF
Springer appealed to the District
Commander for troops, and soldiers
at Fort Union were ordered to move
quickly to the scene of action in or

Methods that WouId Suit.

The position of the Mormon
press on the way that men guilty
of certain crimes should be tried,
and when convicted punished, is
not original. It was anticipated by
the Irishman who was sentenced to
be hanged. He admitted the crime
and did not object to the punish
ment, but insisted that as he had a
throat difficulty, the rope should be
placed under his arms. The Nor
mon press can easily show that ev-
erything done at present is illegal,
even up to the rulings of the Su-
preme Court of the United States,
but still insists that ali that is ask
ed for is that the trials sllail be
fair. 1t is clear enough that any
trial which will convict will be held
as unfair and Illegal by that press,
which has not the manhood or in
tegrity to advise the people to a
void trials or apprehensions OF
trials, by coming within the laws.

Insane Asylum, over 100000 to q

tionable projects. There were only
thirty-six members all told, yet an
appropriation bill passed to pay
the clerks over $4,000, also an ap-
preparation to pay the printing for
the session OF $20,S00, to be paid
by the Territory. The subsidy bills
were lavishly drawn, and are said
to show unmistakable jobbery.
County courts were created against
the strongest protests of the peo-
pie, which increases the taxes of
many counties over $4,000 a year.
The salaries of many officials were
doubled. Much feeling is express.
ed against the Governor for appro-
