Tine disappointment of Mr


 Pearson as postmaster of New York may be, and will he, looked at in two quite dis tinct lights, and judged accordingly. The people will like 1t, and will applaud tiiel president for making 1t. Their under- standing of the matter Is that the New York post office nniler MT. Pearson Is s model business establishment, and that he has earned another term by conspicuo,,sly deserving it.. Of course all the crt dit for what has been accomplished in the New York post office does not helong to Mr. Pearson. Of course, too, there are dozens of men in New York city, democrats and in ability and in integrity That is not to the point. Mir. Pearson is in postmaster, he has experience which any new man would lack, he is administering the office to tue complete satisfaction of the people, they wanted him retained, and they will think the better of the president for rs- tainiug him. On the other hand, our ex- pectation is that the practical politicians of both parties, looking at- the appoint ment simply as & move OH the political che ssboard, will condemn 1t, in their own thoughts if not openly, as a mistake. The New York Sun warned the president be- democrats of the politician class, the 'work- p They will see in it only weak yiel ling to l mugwump pressure, and it will not tend to increase their fondness for the mugwumps or their confidence in the administration. Mr. Hendricks would never have done such a thing-never
 Hartford Times: President Cleveland sent to the senate to-day the nomination of Postmaster Pearson of New York city, for re- appointment. Mr. Pearson has tue credit of being good official, managing his great trust honestly and efficiently; and the president has been urged by many democratic business men of New York to reappoiut him. He has compiled with their wishes, and has deferred to the ur- gent request of the independent republi- cans, who maed a special point on Mir.
 Pearson's re-appointment. Yet MT. Pear son is not d democrat. But he was reg ! ular Blaine republican, and gave his vote for Blaine. It is evident that the presi-
 dent in th,s case has deferred to the wishes of the Independents, who have asked for nntbin2 iu the way of appointments for members of their own organization but who are aesirous of promoting civil ser cice reform and they look upon MT. Pear son as a leader iu carrying ont official re- forms. But this appointment wilt not be pleasing to most of the democrats. They assume that they have many good men, in every way equal to MT. PeaIson--as. capa- ble, honest, and AS earnest in carrying out
 reforms. New York city gave MT. Cleve-
 Iaud majority of 43, ,OOO, we think, and it } was quite reasonable for democrats to an- ticipate the appointment of regular dem- 2. ocrat to 8 position which controls 1 700 subordinates.
 Seth Green says My opinion is that cells hatch in salt or brackish water, and go up the streams when they are small They can go mp any dam or fall when they are young. They crawl mp the dams and falls, clinging to the rocks under the sheet
 of water, the same as an angle worm would. They would go up any fall, no matter how
 high, if they got there before they were
