The Mormons like that part of it which de-

The last batch of nominations sent to the
Senate seems to contain, with the exception
of Prof. Anderson, no name of more than
average merit, some of much less, and some
which ought never to have been sent. Magee,
for instance, who is to succeed Minister
Thomas, was violent Copperhead during the
war, and published sheet SO disloyal in its
sentiments that it had to be suppressed by
the authorities. The sole reason for his ap-
pointment seems to be that If was asked by
Senator Mcdonald. Honor.ng men who
stabbed their country in the back simply to
accommodate an influential Indiana Demo
crat, is unworthy of an administration of
such high profession as Clevelands.

The Presidents reaDpointment of Post
master Pearson is surprise, for the indica-
tions for some time past have been that
either no appointment would be made for
some time to come, or Democrat would be
selected. Pearson's re-appointment was de-
manded by the New York Mugwumps, who
were inclined to make it test of the Presi-
DENTS loyalty to the civil service reform prin-
ciple. They will undou btedly be exceeding
ly jubilant over their success, and we may
look for such deluge of gushing compli-
ments to the President from their newspa-
pers as has not yet been witnessed. How
the Democracy will view this surrender Ia
the Mugwumps remains to be seen. As
Cleveland has in his keeping all the fodder
there is likely to be little outspoken express
sion of dissatisfaction, but an abundance of
suppressed growls.

According to dispatch to the Boston

Deering were in Washington Saturday.
Their names did not appear on any hotel
registry, as they desired to keep their arri.

riged back here Monday morning. The
Tabulstor is understood to have filed his
claims for the internal revenue collectorship.
Whether the Mayor put in his for the post

The Portland Law and Order League is

1t will not find its confidence misplaced.
But the record of the present marshal is not
snch as to inspire the fullest confidence that
the law will be vigorously, and at the same
time impartially, enforced. 1t was Mr.. An
drews that during two months preceding an
election in city which he says at that time
contained 300 rum shops, who only made
two seizures, and those from widow women.
1t was Mr.. Andrews, too, who for several

shutting up two rum shops, leaving 298 ap-

do better now, but it is big job for the

ISOLATION" and Many Inebriated In
divIduals Baum Believed
to BE Alive--Runaway.
Serious Runaway.

A serious runaway occurred on Main
street yesterday afternoon about 6
o'clock. Capt. James Leeper was driv-
ing rather pnruly horse, and as he
turned from Garwood street into Main
paper blew up in front of tho horse,
and frightening him, he made a sudden
dash and quick turn to one side. The
wheels Of the buggy striking the rail of
the street railway, upset ii and threw
Capt. Leeper out. His head struck the
rail heavily, tearing his left
ear about half off, sklnning
his forehead badly and
bruisng and skinning his nose. He was
taken up and carried into DR.. Aliens
residence, when the doctor washed his
wounds, sewed up his car and dressed
his other wounds. After Capt. Leeper
fell from the buggy, the horse rushed
down Main street ~ fearful rate of
speed, and when he reached nearly to
Martin street, MIR. Royal Ferris, cashier
of the Exchange bank, and Mr. h, S.
Castles, who were riding in buggy, saw
him coming, and to get out Of his way,
turned quickly into Martin street, but
just then some one ran in trout Of the
fleeing horse to try and stop him, and
Mr.. Ferris reined his animal to one side
to let him pass he dashed into his buggy,
turning 1t bottom upward and throwing
MIR. Ferris and Mr.. Castles both out and
then running over them. 1t was a fear
full sight to see these gem
tlemen go spinning through the
air and 10 hear the crash OF the
collision. The hearts Of hundred peo-
pie who saw il stood still in alright.
Fortunately, by miracle, it seems,
almost, neither Mr.. Ferris nor Mr.. Cas-
ties were hurt in the slightest Mr..
Ferris buggy looks as though it might
have gone through cyclone, and both
gentlemen were pretty well covered
with dust, but otherwise no damage
was done. The frightened horse was
caught before he got further and taken
to a stable. Capt. Leeper will be pretty
sore for time, but il not dangerously
injured.
