Without a prsssa.n. in History.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 12.-on January lst
last the fourth class postoffice at Hol'
dredge, Nebraska, was placed on the list
Of Presidential offices. Although nine
months have elapsed since theh not a
single application for the position Of post
master at that place has been received at
the Postoilice Department, nor has any
recommendation been made looking to an
appointment. Consequently the post
master, although holding q fourth class
commission, is receiving the compensa-
ton OF a Presidential postmaster. This
state OF affairs is said to be without pre-.
cedent in the history OF the Department.

To he Editor Of The IatsEsigeaar.
CLEVELAND, o., Oct. 12.-My opinion is
that Hoadly will be elected by from 60OC
to 1000 majority. The Democrats will
have the Senate unless there are unex,
pected and almost improbable changes.
The lower House is in doubt, depending
materially on Hamilton and Cuyahoga
counties which elect the largest delega,
tion. The Sherman men have worked
the close counties untiripg1y and depend
on sherman's popularity with the Ger
mans to carry them. r4F
In this county there will be much
scratching and possible change OF elect
ing two Democrats endorsed by labor
unions, owing to the labor strike and
other LEGAL causes. The registration in
some ofthe Democratic wards is largely
below what It should have been. The
Prohibition vote in the State will be be.
tween 5000 and $4,000.

Jerry Murphy and Fred Madison, two
Racine roughs, came to Kenosha on Fri.
day last, for the purpose, they said Of
cleaning out the police force" They
assaulted James Filben and threatened
to kill him with bricks which they pick
ed up at Mr.. Calkins' new building.
Filben made complaint against them
and had them arrested. The Sheriff ar
rested Madison and gave him to Filben
to hold while he looked after Murphy.
Madison got away from Filben at the
bridge, and Filben fired two shots after
him. Murphy was brought before JUS
tice Gillett, and, no one appearing against
him, he was discharged on paying costs.
In the evening Madison was arrested near
the depot by Deputy Sheriff Shotliff.
Murphy attemptedtores him from the
officer, and Constable Vaughn was order
ed to arrest Murphy. While Murphy
was walking along with Vaughn he trip
ped him and ran. Vaughn followed
Murphy down Market street and fired
four shots after him. Murphy pulled a
board off a fence and dared Vaughn to
come near him, and Vaughn went for
assistance. Murphy was arrested later
in the evening by officer Harkins, but
no complaint was made against him and
he was allowed to go free. Madison was
brought before Justice Paddock and
fined 81 and costs or thirty days in Jail. |
He is serving his sentence out at the
cost of the county. Madison is one of
the fellows who broke into John Mona
ghan's store some time ago, and has just |
served out a term in Racine Jail. Muir
ply was also recently liberated from that
Institution. We do not understand why
he should be allowed to go free without /
! charge being preferred against him.

CHICAGO, May Goth, 1885.
What will be the current values for
wool the coming season is yet an open
question. We hear of what appear to be
high prices paid in some instances in
Texas, KY, &C., but these are mostly for
selections of very choice clips, always
cheap as bought in the country, Or posi-
bly, the momentary whim of some poor
ly informed speculative buyer, who has
yet to pay for his experience, and these
are not reliable data to be influenced by.
The. facts remain to all men of experience
and observation, and we hear this stated
lately by leading business houses, that
business in general I" is not satisfactory y
1t takes time to rally from the result of
OVERRIDING. That the condition of the
country is favorable for gradualimprove-
ment, and that there is now a better and
healthier tone to business than for some
time past, is uniformly admitted. That
we are living in a period of lon va1ues fo1
everything in this country seems equally
evident.
1t is generally admitted, however, that
wool values are at bottom, and that any
change must be for the better. There has
been lately a better demand for wooden
goods than for some time past. For
many reasons we believe that wool will
maintain its full relative values with
other articles of merchandise, more so
than for some years past, and be a profit
able article of husbandry.
The stock Of wool on our markets is
yet very light, and not enough to fairly
establish values, but we note an increas-
| ing enquiry for fine wool and for low anc
common stock. The outlook generally
indicates a good healthy trade for woods
the coming season. Coarse and low
grade woods, including such of New Mex
leo, &C., promise to be in large demand
Early receipts have sold promptly al
good prices.
We quote prices which we think ar,
reasonably safe to expect on our marke
for new woods:

MAMMOTH HORSE.

We publish below the statement of

q horse recently purchased for him in
Europe. We are not posted in the
matter of horses. but venture the opin-
ion that the horse described by Mr..

weight by any other in the county
or probably in the state. Mr.. Holt is
one Of the enterprising farmers of this

the raising of stock, ard especially
horses:

DEAR SIR Wool markets are yet
rather quiet, awaiting receipt of new
woods, the stock here now being very
light. We look for a good steady trade
this season, at fair prices. Combing
woods, of coarse and / blood grades, are,
and will be, in large demand.
From experience and observation the
past season, we are more than ever in
clined to advise wool raisers not to wash
their wool. There are feece-Washed
woods on all markets to-day which have
not been sold because they could not be
sold at what have in former times been
considered relative values with unwash-
ed, while unwashed woods of the same
grades have all been sold. This is the
fact. The reasons are too many to emu
merate here, other than that manufac-
turers have been coming more and more
to prefer llnwashed woods. This prefer.
ence promises to be more pronounced
the coming season, and that feece-wash.
ed woods will have to be sold at much
less relative prices with unwashed than
heretofore, or remain unsold. The idea
of fleece washing is very foolish at best
Very truly yours,
