An Obedient Child.

a special dispatch from Washington
to The Milwaukee Sentinel, of Nav %.
says; The Democrats of this city were
very much gratitied, to-day, over the
report given by Senator DanVoorhees of
an interview that he had with the pres-
dent. Senator Voorhees, says that Mr..
Cleveland told him that he intended to
remove every Republican ofliceholder of
any prominence at the very earliest pos
sible moment. All this is confirmatory
OF what has been previously printed in
these dispatches upon this subject.
There is to be a general change. and the
bulk of these changes is to come very
soon after the beginning of the fiscal
year"
Under the heading "Curled Up" the
Dubuque FINES says: "Well, Cleveland
has telescoped himself. Backbone.
sand, pluck and resolution, the only
virtues ever positively claimed for him,
even by his warm admirers, are found
TO be totally lacking. In the matter of
the marshalshIp of the Southern Iowa
district. he shuts up like a jsck-knife,
aud al the bidding of the bosses revokes
the commission of Williams, and APP
points Ed Campbell. the tool of the
railroad corporations. 1t is an act dis
graceful 10 the Administration and
Illuminating to the whole country.
When we recall the emphatic pledges
given by the President from time to
time, that he would make no appoint
ments upon mere partisan grounds,
and that he would be steadfastly indie
pendent Of party dictation, we are
amazed that his own pride and self-re-
spect have not asserted themselves in
this matter, and saved him from this
pitiful exhibition of serviity to the
bosses BY this act more than by any
OF the other, questionable, and often
disgraceful appointments he has made.
the President advertises the insincerity
Va "ii us pbot plOtOSSi)uN, Anu his utter
helplessness in the hands of his party
managers.
The deduction from all this is. that
Mr.. Cleveland has thus early been
taught his place; that his party-which
IS spoiIS party has brought him into
subsection To ITS will. And how could
it have been otherwise? Every expert
ment at being personal president has
failed. No experienced statesman of
either party would attempt such thing,
aud the only progress made in civil SER
vice reform by President Arthur was by
and with the aid and assistance of the
majority of his party. How, then,
could this mushroom, Cleveland, who is
not on record as a statesman of any
kind or experience whatever. be ex-
pected to fulfill the promises made in
his letter Of acceptance, in the face of
his party. which is opposed almost
unanimously to any form of civil-ser-
vice reform whatever? II was the height
of simplicity in one tn pxnert II

Elizabeth Cleveland, sister of the presi-

be designated as a ''scorcher" With
the clearest of logic and an array of
facts and SMILES that are past caption
she shows, first, the utter aseessness of
alcohol rs beverage, and, second, its
harmful effects. The unerring and in
fallible judgment of mother, as to
what is good or bad for her child, is Miss
Cleveland's strongest point, and this
she puts in the best and most forcible
words. 1t is source OF congratulation

able and efficient enemy of rum, from

from the excellent Mrs. Hayes.
The June Dorcas opens with an ex-

We acknowledge the receipt of a
pamphlet, by the state board OF health,
warning the public against the cholera
The board, however. must excuse Il,
from employing II gang of men and
carrying out its wise and wholesome
suggestions. Because, were we to exc.
cute our portion of the sanitary work
with all possible neatness and despatch,
probably somebody else would neglect
theirs, and thus the cholera would
strike us at one fell swoop AMI all our
labor would be in vain. And yet what
would we do without n well paid board
of health to make suggestions?

CENTER TOWNSHIP AFFAIRS.

The more Trustee Kitzs management of
township affairs is exam ined the more truly
remarkable it appears. In the time of Smith
King the question of the SOS, 900 Indiana g.
Illinois Central railroad tax was carried to the
Supreme Court, and a decision favorable to
Center township secured. Then an agree
ment was made with the County Commission
ers whereby the interest Oh this sum was to
be paid to the township, and, at times when
needed, portion Of the principal These
payments amounted, possibly, to over
$4,000. When Trustee Kitz came
into Office, and obtained the very
valuable services Of that phenomenal
lawyer who has been conducting the trustee
throughout the Pollard affair, he concluded to
make demand upon the Commissioners for
the whole amount supposed to be due the
township at once. It would be nice plum.
He could put it into his bankers hands, and
probably draw little interest on it, which
would exc out his frugal per diem, and enable
him the better to pay his brilliant legal ad-
wiser the $4,000 year which, it is reported,
he has received, for taking care of the trustee
His lawyer made the demand and went into
court to enforce it, where he was met
with an opinion from Judge Howe that the
township had no valid judgment, and that
proceedings would have to be commenced de
novo. Then the trustees Websterian attor-
ney began the suit, just terminated by
Supreme Court judgment adverse to the
township which will compel the township not
only to lose the balance presumed to be due,
but will force it to refund the amount already
advanced-say $4,000. Had Mr.. Kitz
and his lawyer been content to let we'll
enough alone, the township would
have received, in time, the full $685. 900, and,
until paid, the interest On the unpaid balance
Neither the county nor the railroad was NOV
ing in the matter; they each accepted the first
Supreme Court opinion as final, and thus it
would have remained but for the cupidity Of
the township trustee and the marvellous wis
dom of his legal adviser. As it is, the tax
payers of Center township lose the whole $685.
900, and will have to be taxed to refund the
$23, 900 already received and expended by the
trustee. This is one of the items to go into
the account against "Kitzism.' Then the tax
payers will not fail to notice the number
of pets which Mr.. Kitz keeps on his payroll.

PROF. E. E. WHITE we'll known in Indi-
ana, concludes lengthy historical review of
the development Of the anti-slavery crusade
with this pert brushing away of the foolish
fallacy INDUCED in by certain Prohibition"
cranks, that they are following in the foot
steps of the old-time Liberty party
cit is seen that our brief survey reveals no
important analoges, either between slavery
and the liquor traffic, as evils, or in the his
tory of the related political parties, that justi-
fly the existence or policy of the Prohibition
party; and it takes no prophetic ken to see
that there is to be no historic parallel in the
outcome. The suppression Of the evils of in
temperance will require the practical wisdom
and the united action of the good men of all
parties, and the freer the cause is kept from
the antagonisms and conflicts of political
parties, the sooner will effective legislation be
secured"

THE Cincinnati saloons are in condition
of mind over an enemy in the camp in the
shape Of saloons that have begun selling beer
of these three-cent saloons, and the number
is growing. The worst feature of the innova-
tion-to the fve-cent saloons-is the fact that
the threecent men throw in "lunch" with
their sales. A Detroit company is said to be
at the bottom of it, and the Cincinnati men
are talking of reyiving the Boss Brewers AS
ISOLATION for protection. How would 'boy-
cotting" works It is the favorite weapon of
the liquor lords and those who make their
living by hanging about saloons.

FOR CITY CLERK.

We have scarcely felt it necessary to call
attention to the conspicuous merits Of Mr..
George T. Breunig, the candidate for city
clerk His administration of the duties of
that Office has been so eminently efficient, so
courteous, so perfectly satisfactory, that we
anticipate his re- election by a majority that
will make him blush with self-conceit Mr.
Breunig has proved himself one of the most
competent and obliging officials that ever
served the public. If there is any merit in
high efficiency and fidelity Mr.. Breunig is en-
titled to the vote of everybody tomorrow.
