Preaident Cleveland shows his sim
ccvftv in favor Of civil service reform
nv declaring himself the friend OF it,
and uuon the heel of Ids declaration
enpoints Daniel Manning and Will
liam G. Whitney, both thorough ma
chine politicians to places In his Cabi-
net. The necessity of reform in the
administration is Of course dwelt upon
as emphatically as ever, but 1t has now
assumed the simple and Ineligible
shape of reforming out or place the
present office holders, and substituting
Tor them men of an entirely different
stripe. A speaker at Democratic
club dinner at Boston few nights
since said Upon the giving OF
Office we stand upon the principle. that
every man who can get an appointment
is fit to fill it." and it cannot be denied
that he spoke the sentiments OF great
majority of his party. In TACT the
Mugwumps' idea of civil service Ia
scouted at, publicly and passlonately,
wherever opportunity offers by the men
whom the gentle reformers hoped to in
struct and guide in all matters poliu-
cal. This indeed was anticipated by
everyoue outside of the Mugwumps
themselves, There will he bat little
regret felt over their disappointment
nv their betrayed friends or victorious
allies. Their day of usefulness has
passed by never TO return. ln.the SHAT
terinR of their hopes and the contemp
tuous reiet ton OF their advice, they
NAV learn to realize how little OF solid
satisfaction or of sincere respect can bt
purchased by the gratifi cation OF petty
preiudices. The army of Office seeker
now swarming around Washington
vill speedily stamp into the grount
averv yestige of those civil servic'
cherries which were held up as tn
panacea for all the ills OF he people un

endorse them most ardently to thro'

A Good Exhibition of Bad Kind

BRAIDwooD, ILL, Aug. IA prize fight
took place five miles east of here at daylight
this morning, between Adam Palmerson, e
saloon keeper, and George Mulvey, miner,
both from Brackville, a small town near
here, for purse of $500, in which Mulvey
knocked Palmerson out after 1873 rounds.
AT 2 o'clock this morning sports began to
leave for the scene of battle. Every availa-
BILE convey ance was put to use on the occa.
sion. The men fought London prize ring
rules with five-ounce hard gloves, Both
men weighed about 1s5 pounds. Palmerson
was slightly fatter than his opponent. Al
the commencement odds were given in favor
of Palmerson, but after the fifth round Null
vey was the favorite. Although he got some
very hard knocks he punished his opponent
severely, and when the 139th round was
called Palmerson was so exhausted that he

Rumored Rupture Between Bosses

NEW YORK, Aug. 22.-State politics are
getting decidedly interesting and are bring
ing National politics into the scene. Yes
terday's Brooklyn Eagle, the strong and
only Democratic organ In Kings county, de-
clares that Cleveland Is sick of Secretary
Manning, who, the Eagle says, was forced
on the President as q cabinet officer against
his will. Manning, as the story goes, was
made aware If this soon after the appoint
ment, and wrote his resignation immedI ate
ly. BY the advice Of friends It was with
held, but he then announced that he would
not be cabinet officer six months. The
Eagle says the relations between Cleve land
and Manning are now very much strained.
Yesterdays Mail and cypress reports on
what II regards as the best Democratic au-
thority, that the relations between the Presi.
dent and Tilden are absolutely ruptured.
Cleveland. on his way to the Adirondacks,
stopped at Yonkers, but was told that Til
den could not see him, and he therefore pro.
ceeded TO Albany. Manning was sent to
Tilden to see what was the matter, and he
too was snubued.

THE HIGH RAILROAD RATES.

The railroads are carrying passengers TO
N. now issues tickets from Butte out on its
line and return, Sundays, for half fare. II
has even sold excursion tickets a. less than
two cents per mile. This half fare rate Is
about four cents per mile. The regular rate
is eight cents per mile. In Colorado the
regular rate on valley roads-snd all our
roads are "valley roads"--is limited by law
TO ~ cents per mile, aud oil the "mountain
roads"-wbere the grades run up to 200 or
800 feet per nile-to 7 cents. Here the
"vslley" rates are more than the "moun-
tain" rates In Colorado. The cost of opera
ting roads here Is but q trife more than In
Colorado. There the State regulates the.
rates, and here the railroad companies fix
them. They should not take this advantage
OF an opportunity to exercise extortion.
They doubtless make money at "excusion"
rates, although the object Of giving them is
TO increase travel. Round trip tickets from
St. Paul to the National Park are sold on
the Northern Pacific a. considerably less
than angle fare rates one way. This, too,
10 done 10 encourage travel. Now, why not
encourage local travel by the same process.
Our people do not wish to 70 TO Congress
and ask II 10 exercise the Same supervision
over the rates Of railroads In the Territories
that States do over the rates on roads within
their Jurisdiction. The railroad companies
should make reasonable rates without legis-
iative interference. We hope TO sec both
the Northern Pacific and Union Pacific com
panles put the local rates In Montana ct free

companies better in the end, but they are
better judges OF that than are We. We
