: Mr.. Dorman B. Eaton is back in
the civil service frying pan again
as favor to President Cleveland.
His reappointment as the republican
member of the commission was made
upon the request of the new demo-
cratic members, who want the benefit
of his experience while they are
learning the ropes. Thus far, GER
tainly, the civil service commission
without Mr.. Eaton would be like the
play of Hamlet with Hamlet left out.
We trust he will be able to get along
with his new associates; and that
the commission will yet do some
good service. ~ A

THE RUM PoWER IN POLITICS.

The New York Mail argues with
some plausibility that the most po-
tent cause for the recent defeat of
the republican ticket in the Empire
State is that the rum and beer inter
ests were allied and welded against
it with great sag acity. In 1883 this
organized New York Liquor Dealers
Protective association was strong
enough to slaughter the ablest and
cleanest man on the democratic tick
ct, Judge Maynard, the candidate for
secretary of state; it was the hostili-
ty of this Liquor League to Maynard.
a strong temperance man, that elect
ed Carr, not alone Carr's military
record or his Irish lineage. This
league has 5000 active members on
its roll and in a close election can
hold the political balance in the state.
The election of Hill was openly adj
vocated 10y the leading organ of this
league.

Senator Rlddleberger took the

some sensation in his preliminary ro.
marks by retlecting upon temporary

with representing one faction in the
convention and with ruling in to-day's
session unfairly and In prejudiced
manner.
Chairman Lamb rose and said he
represented no one side, but that he
represented all the delegates in tho
convention and that any charge that

TO give to the public the
only portion of the memorable
interview which, In his opinion, is OF
interest to the country at large. He
handled the little slips Of paper ON
which General Grant had writton al
most as though they were sacred. Gem
eral Buckner said:

more reassuring news was received
late yesterday faom Colonel Rldgeway,
Chief of the British-Afghan Boundary
Commission, the news from other
sources regarding Russian move

only redeeming feature of the intelli-
