ADMINISTRATIVE METHODS EXPLAINED BY
A DEMOCRATIC ORGAN.
Calais Times (Dem.)
The anonymous spy and charge system
worked badly in practice, and caused the
Administration many embarrassments, and
open warfare against offensive partisans,
has been gradually substituted. The, Post
master and Attorney Generals, and the Sec
rotary of the Interior no longer make the
smirching of Republican office holders
character the prerequisite to getting him out.
They do not cast about for some apology for
exercising power of removal and appoint
ment: Charges are required as usual where
that is necessary to put off disagreeable or
unworthy Democrats 1t forms very clev-
er bnlwark against indiscriminate and sud
den assaults of office seekers, but whenever
a removal is really desired nothing of such
nature is longer suggested.

The Indiana Independents are not salts
fed with the report of the Civil Service Com
mission in the case of Postmaster Jones
and will still continue to urge the President
tolremove him. They will contend, first that
it is his duty to remove him, so that the spir-
it and effectiveness of the civil service law
may be sustained, in spite of the report of
the commission, and second, that Mr.. Jones
has been guilty Of offensive partisanship in
removing competent employees for none 9TH
er than political reasons. 1t will also be
urged against Mr.. Jones that after he be-
came postmaster the work of cashier and as
sistant postmaster which had previously
been done by one person was divided, an adj
ditional office being thus created, and that
the money to pay the new officer was OBJ
tanned by discharging two distributors who
had been appointed by recommendation of
two postoffice inspectors after thorough
examination of the needs of the Office

The boast of the admirers of the chairman
of the Democratic State committee has been
that he secured the appointment of forty
fourth class postmasters in one day. 1t now
appears that Mr.. Brown could have covered
himself with altogether more glory and done
much more substantial service to the Dem
Ocratic party and to the administration by
preventing the appointment of one. The
Centre Lincolnville incident illustrates the
danger of the rapid cleaning out of fourth
class post offices which the first assistant post
master has been INDUCING in of late, spurred
on by Democratic politicians

of General U. S. Grant, has suitably called forth a
universal expression of sorrow throughout the
civilized world. am aware that the heart of the

In consideration of the death of so illustrious a

The Hon. S. S. Brown says that the only
Dunton he recommended was Mr. Fred Dun
ton, who has been appointed postmaster at
Montville Centre. This relieves Mr.. Brown
and throws the whole responsibility for the
appointment of an embezzler to a public posi-
ton on the people of Centre Lincolnvile who
failed to notify the department that the man
they had commended had confessed himself

Ii it be true as reported that Mr.. Kelley
has decided to resign he has come to a very
sensible conclusion, though he has been very
slow in making up his mind. And if it be
fact that the administration will not try to
find another place for him it too has come to
very sensible decision The tenacity
with which the administration has chung to
Kelley would have been praiseworthy if he
had been conspicuously fit for the diplomatic
service. But he was not. Indeed his Rich
mond speech showed that he was conspic-
uouslY unfit.

The rapid spread of the cholera in Spain
and France is causing alarm all over Europe
and quarantine regulations both on land and
sea are being made more strict. 1t is very
doubtful if we fully know the extent to
which cholera prevails. In the maritime
cities especially there is a disposition to con-
ceal its existence in order to prevent restric-
tions on their commerce. The disease had
undoubtedly existed considerable time in
Marseilles before its presence was officially
admitted. 1t will be prudent, therefore, for
American ports to quarantine against all YES
sells coming from Mediterranean towns, not
withstanding the denial of the existence of
cholera in them.

Mr.. Hendricks ann ounces that he does not
consider civil service reform an established
fact yet. Without doubt Mr.. Hendricks is
right; and the reflection is very consoling to
him. But the reform is making progress.
even in Indiana, where politics are pretty
stiff. Mr. Hendricks friend, Aquilla Jones,
has been good deal scared since his investi-
CATION by the civil service commission and
we doubt if in the future he will SO openly
proclaim his contempt for it as he has done
in the past.

Mr.. Squire, the New York commissioner
of public works, has had his feelings badly
hurt by an order from Mayor Grace to take
down some verses which have been adjoining
the front of the City Hall since Gen. Grants
death. The verses were the composition of
Mr. Squire and were intended to honor Gen.
Grant Mr.. Squire regarded them with great
affection and pointed to them as evidence
that poetry and politics are not Incompatible
The general public did not agree with Mr..
Squires estimate of them and pronounced
them doggerel, which undoubtedly they
were, and the popular clamor for their re-
moval became so strong that the Mayor was
compelled to heed it and sacrifice Mr..
Squires poetry and his feelings.

Death Of Vice-President Hendricks.

Thomas Andrews Hendricks, Vice
President of the United States, died
suddenly of paralysis of the brain,
at his home in Indianapolis, Indiana,
few minutes before s o'clock yes
terday afternoon. The country has
lost noble and great statesman, and
the Democratic party a true, able and
devoted leader. His truth, honesty,
purity of character, superior ability
and undertaking integrity were tow
ers of strength to his success. A
great and good man, an honored and
brilliant party leader is dead, and the
nation mourns its great loss.

America Ahead. Peculiar
characteristics OF Amera~
cans The Evils and H@w
Restored.
In this age Of hustle and hurry, an age
devoted to great projects and enterprises,
the American people are taking the lead
in the furtherance Of noble works, and in
the advancement Of the sciences and arts.
In these they deserve to take high rank,
and through the united works Of millions,
the American continent is fast being
transformed from its untamed state and
being placed on an equality with the older
continents beyond the ocean. The Amer
lean people are fast, under these influences,
developing into nervous, energetic race,
remarkable for its vim and business quail
fications; yet there is danger that in the
course Of years these very elements may
combine to the ruination of the physical
character of the people, and leave them
feeble and altogether different from their
forefathers. General debility is now much
more common than formerly, and seems
to be on the increase among the masses.
Many remedies have been extensively
advertised for this widespread complaint,
but none Of these have been so successful
or met with such general favor as the
remedy manufactured by DR.. S. B. Hart
man, and named by him PRRUNA.
Mr.. S S. Cloudy, Of Massillon, Stark
county, Ohio, writes: That he has been
troubled with general debility and dyspep-
STA for several years that he was induced
to try PERUNA for his complaints, and
that after using three bottles of the medi-
cine he was greatly relieved. 1t braced
him right up and gave him energy, and
restored him to his youthful vigor. He
ascribes his cure to PERUNA, and says it
is wonderful remedy.
Adolph Bakhaus & Co, Springfield, o.,
writes !: " We are having a good sale for
PERUNA. 1t sells as well as any medicine
we have, and gives the very best satisfac-
ton"
Mrs. G. w. Needham, Newtonville,
Clermont County, Ohio, says: i have
been a great sufferer for the last six or
seven years, with general debility and
change of life. / was very much reduced.
Ihave taken four bottles of PRRUNA, which
has restored me to perfect health and
strength. We think PERUNA a safe and
grand medicine"

Thanksgiving To-Day.

This is thanksgiving day. A day
generally observed throughout the
country as day of thanksgiving and
prayer.
In Bellevue this morning the SER
vices at our church by Rev. R. M.
Blocker were well attended by good
congregation. Bellevue Academy
was closed for an hour or two, and
Prof. A. J. Murff and his entire school
attended during thanksgiving SER
vices.
Thanksgiving day had it's origin in
New England about two hundred
and forty years ago, and was inaugu-
rated as religious festival with the
view of giving thanks for some
special apparent dispensation in be-
halfeof one or mere of the then
struggling colonies. It was not an
nual then, but increased in frequency
with the growth and prosperity of
the young States. It was first recon-
mended as q National holiday by
Washington after he became Presi-
pent, and with more or less frequency
by his successors until provision
was made for its annual observance
The last Thursday in November was
the day selected, and since that time
the same day has has been recon.
mended. Of late years it has taken
the form of q social event, and now
family reunions are quite frequent
on this day. In addition to the re-
hgious and social features, it should
be ever welcome as an additional
holiday for the overworked American
people.
