Two farmers were not long since
discussing their local paper. One said
he thought it had too many advertise

"What right has the administration to APP

Cleveland's title rests upon the votes Of

trampled upon, and partisan organization
set up a despotism which nullifed the

GENERAL LoGAN's purpose to oppose
the confirmation of officials appointed in
place of veterans who have been removed
without cause is to be commended. If
what he has to say on this subject should
be said in open session SO much the bet :
ter. The country does not desire any
factious opposition on the part Of the
senate to the presidents nominations, but
it does expect that body to uphold civil
service reform principles and to protest
against the violation of the spirit or the
letter of the statute which declares that
Union veterans shall be preferred in the
civil service -NeU York Tribune.

ualiy, even The presence Of civilization
will not drive them from their haunts
To-day beaver are returning to streams in
Michigan long ago abandoned by .heir
race, simply be2ause they find themselves
unmolested, the demand for beaver peltrv
being slight and the prices paid ont of all
proportion to The labor entailed in trap
ping. It has been said that if dam or
house be once injured by the hand OF man,
the colony at once disappears But that
this is failacious is proved by The follow

began the erection of d new dam. Though
the emhankment Of railway ran nearly
parallel with the stream. and trains passed
backward and forward daily, they seemed
IN no way disturbed, and worked steadily
on until the water had ri-ea a foot or
more. The trackmaster, observing that
this endangered the line-for the embank-
ment had been utilized as a wing Of the
dam-ordercd the water drawn off. But
the following day the beavers had repaired
the dam cut through, and the watcr va.
at It's former hight. Again and again and
again was the dam cat through. and is
often would it be repaired. All in all, it
was cut and repaired some fifteen or
twenty times ere the beavers were sutfi-
GENTLY discouraged to abandon their at
