A GREAT many papers condemned Adj
miral Jouett's withdrawal of the United
States marines from Panama and have
intimated that he had made mistake.
The result shows that they were mistak-
EN- and that Jenett who was on the
ground, cempreheAded the situation
and did the right thing. When the full
truth was known, all credit him with
acting with great discretion and his ac-
ton in the premises has been fully en-
dorsed by Secretary Whitney. 1t is evil
dent that the withdrawal Of the marines
resulted in the settlement of the trouble
in the best manner possible for the in

TIE Democracy of Wisconsin are con-
siderably disgruntled over the appoint
ment of j. H. Gregory, of that state as
Indian Agent. Gregory, it is claimed is
a Republican and owes his appointment
to the influence of Postmaster General
Villas. A leading Wisconsin Democrat
says the whole story is this; Colonel
Villas is heavy stakeholder IN the Su-
perior Lumber Company. This John II.
Gregory has been boOk-keeper of the
lumber company until sometime ago.
j. Fl. Knight, who is stakeholder in
in the lumber company, and Colonel
Villas aEd another gentleman, whose
name l forget started bank. They
put Gregory in as cashier. So now he is
recommended here Tor this place as a
bank cashier. He is still In the employ
of Colonel Villas. However, the Chippe-
was are no longer supported by annui-
ties. but subsist from the products Of
their reservation. On their lands stand
the finest white pine in the Northwest,
or anywhere in the country. 1t is cut
and shipped down the lakes and the st,
Lawrence to Europe. 1t is clear as day
to me that the appointment of Gregory
will result in the purchase of this white
pine by the Superior Lumber Company
at a very low rate, and TO the exclusion
of competitors"

WASHINGTON kilograms to the daily
press would indicate that Senator Eus-
It's, of Louisiana, was not the only prom
lnent Democrat dissatisfied with the
Cleveland administration. 1t is init
mated that leading Senators and Con-
gressmsn are making calculations for
opening regular broadside upon the
present policy of the administration on
the convening of the next Congress. The
trouble is the appetite of the Democracy
for office is not receiving the relief the
emergency demands, and the appoint
rnent of Republicans, even though mug
wumps, to prominent positions, does not
tend to produce eentented feeling
among those in the Democratic ranks
looking for positions which they think
they ought to have.

The indications. from advices the lat
ter part of last week, would seem to show
that the prospects were favorable for an
amieable adjustment between England
and Russia, the former, manifesting the
willingness to accede to the demands of
Russia in regard to the boundary line in
dispute. Notwithstanding these indica-
tiOns. il would seem that both powers
are still making all necessary prepare
lions for conflict. BY some it is claim
ed that the Gladstone ministry only
adopts this policy for the purpose of gain
ing more time to make preparations for
the conflict and will, as soon as they are
prepared, accept the smallest pretence
for entering upon conflict. While war
between these powers is to be deprecated,
many in the United States are hoping
that the war may commence. as it would
create demand for supplies that would
greatly depend upon this country to fur
nish.

And Don't You Forget 1t,

&c. The live grocerymen of Che

Gown is at his new, reliable stand
selling goods cheaper than anyone
else dare to sell. Call and get prices
and quality that cam; be beat.
DEGOwIN has struck it quite right at last,
Down goes the prices and in comes the cash.
Some grocerymen CRY out 'it's fraud and a
cheat"
Because my low prices they never can beat.
But let them cry out and whmper and whine
My goods are all paid for, of course they are
mine.
I bought them quite right, and this you will
know,
Or never could sell them at prices so low.
Some say Pll be bankrupt, but that's not fact;
never wanted the benefit of any such act
Dollar for dollar 1 always have paid,
And never had dollar but honestly made.
Ipay no high rent nor drive fancy rigs;
Can make good living with profits not big.
Five years have labored right in this same
town,
thus paid for my store and goods now on hand.
For all these past favors 1 thank you kind
friends;
1 am net of the sort that only pretends,
But will sell you Groceries so cheap and 80

THE case of General Grant is very
singular one. A few weeks since his
death was almost momentarily expected
and his physicians said it was only
question of time when he would have to
suecumb to the inevitable, but shortly
his condition began to improve and has
continued to do so until he has got so
much better that last week he resumed
his work on his book. the history Of the
late war. Thursday of last week he die
tated what will make about twenty-five
pages of the book. 1t is to be hoped that
this improved condition may prove per-
manent, and Notwithstanding the pre-
dictiOns of the doctors that his disease
musts necessarily prove fatal, that he
will fully recover and be long spared to
the country.

$5,232.U75 and $S7,060,474 for the CORES
pOnding month and ten months Of the

presented for redemption during the

out being less than 100000. The avail
able cash balance is $l55,S16,044, an in

A STATEMENT prepared at the pension
office shows that the business of the Of

3,744 during the same month last year,
and that the total number of pension
certificates issued was $3.50, being 1866
