Senator Sherman says it will be the
policy of the republican majority ip the
senate not to consider the nominations
of the president in spirit of partisan
ship. There will be, MIR. Sherman says,
no question raised as to the right Of the
president to fill vacancies with members
OF his own party, nor is there disposi-
tion to quarrel with him for removals
made for purely political reasons, as he
Is responsible for the administration of
the government. 1t is conceded that he
may have the right to surround himself
with those who share his own views; ];
neither party has ever denied this
right. But where men have been re-
moved for alleged causes, where charges
have been made which affect their
reputation, where their integrity or
competency has been questioned, SEN
ators believe that they should
have an opportunity of vindicating
themselves, and will give them the PRIV
ilege of meeting the charges. If their
answers are deemed sufficient, and it
shall appear on inquiry that they have
been uriustly assalled, the senate will
act accordingly, whether the officials in
volved are republicans or democrats.
The senators will also exercise the right
OF inquiry into the fitness of men. MIR.
Sherman says he is personally cogniz.
ant of several appointments of motor
ious untitness which the senate will
doubtless reject, but there is no disposi.
tion to be unfair or hypocritical.

policy and Judge Edgerton the avowed

choosing between these two the legisla-
ture practically adopts platform of
principles for future government. In
the election of Judge Edgerton 1t an
nounces that it will go no further
in the pursuit of statehood
than to request congress to give south
Dakota place in the union. It aban-
dons Its rights in the premises and
transforms south Dakota into creature
OF the good will or the ill will OF an or
ganization of its political enemies.
We have little faith in the efficacy of
further efforts in behalf of division and
statehood. The whole project has gone
up in puff of smoke.

DR.. Jim Little while at work
ON his farm last Saturday, had
thu misfortune te be poisoned
while pulling up weeds.-[Dav-
export in Logan Gazette.
We are sorry. for the Doctor, If
the above is true; but as We see
his genial countenance on our
streets every day, we are forced
to doubt. We stand up to in
quire whether the local Of the
Gazette ever heard of a work
called ::'English Grammar :" We

he was, why was he fooling away

The Shawnee Journal was late
IN getting in snake stories, but il
catches up with the following:
Thomas Davis, who resides
near this place, informs US thai
he last week killed a snake hav-
ing two perfect shaped heads, one
on each end of the body; when
it retreated from him it moved
in the form of a half hoop. 1t
was about four feet in length,
and was of the garter snake spe.
cies.
Sandy Griswold, of the Lam
caster Gazette, thought the re-
turns coming in slow, and he gets
this:
While hunting sqirrels in the
woods of Perry county, one day
last week, Ben Strigle killed a
snake that measured Z inches in
circumference and 104 feet in
length. and with a head like q
goose. Snake stories have come
in slow this year, but they'll be
along in good time.
We have several in reserve,
which we have sent to the Rep
Gazette, the only paper that is
stinted on truth, and has a sur
plus of exaggeration on snakes
and politics.

According to the July estimates
the outlook for the wheat crop is
not as bad rs at first reported
The Oregon crep is the largest
ever known. The Kansas crop
will be half as large as it was last
year and one hundred per cent,
better than the June estimate
The Michigan yield will be as
large az last years. There is al
SO better news from Minnesota,
where the latest estimates put
the prospective yield at -, 2,e95, 600
bushels, or eighty: five per cent.
oflast years production. In Da-
kota the wheat looks finely and
the prospect is excellent. Sena-
tor Plumb says that while the
wheat crop in Kansas is not SO
poor as expected, those farmers
who plowed up their wheat fields
are getting fine returns of other
crops. We have yet in hand a
visible supply of %, 600, 900 bush
els of old wheat. London re-
ports show that there is more
wheat on the way to that market
than there was last year, not
withstanding the falling off in
American shipments. As a whole
the situation is a reassurlng one.
There will not be q scarcity of
wheat and prices will not, If they
advance at all, be much higher
than they were last year.

Obituary.

Mr.. George Lortz, oldest son of
Mr.. Adam Lortz and his wife Su-
sannah, was born April Z, 1S49,
at Cincinnati. In early infancy
he was given to the Lord through
holy baptism, and when about Is
years of age, after Icing duly in
structed in the saving tsuths of
Christianity, he was confirmed
by Rev. John Her. in the Ev.
Luth. Church at Ewing, thus
"making a good confession before
many witnesses" Of his faith in
Christ. To this VOW of con6rma-
ton he remained faithful.
June 18th, 1878, the deceased
was joined in matrimony to Miss
Caroline Lehman. Ibis union
was happy one. and the Lord
blessed it with four children, all
of whom with their widowed
mother survive their dear father.
In general MIR. Lorlz enjoyed
good health and made good use
of the rare gift by following qui-
city and industrlously his calling.
Until about the LIST Of January,
this year. from the effects of a
severe cold he had contracted
while at work heart and kidney
troubles made their encreach-
ment upon him, which soon re-
sulted in BIight's disease. In
spite of medicine and the tender
care Of his dear ones, this malady
grew daily worse. During his
sickness he put his trust entirely
in the Lord. To be strengthened
in his faith in Christ, while sut-
fe:lng. he partook of the true
body and blood of Christ in the
holy supper. He fell asleep. as
we have good reason to hope, in
Jesus, 10 enjey the rest and bliss
of heaven. This occurred Mon
day morning July 9Th, at the age
of 36 years. 2 months. % days.
His funeral took place Tuesday
, afternoon and was largely at
tended by friends and relatives,
Rev. l.. F. Mittler officiating.
After religious services at the
house and the Church. the earth
ly remains were lald to rest in
the new cemetery to await the
resurrection morn. The aged
parents, the bereaved widow, the
fatherless children, the brothers
a. ID sisters, and host of friends
of the departed. mourn their
great loss May God abundantly
console and bless them. ~

some Noise.

President Cleveland is evidently
disposed to raise a NOISE, among
Ohio Democrats. He has
recently appointed, as a member Of
the Pacific Railroad Commission.
OF Governor Eoyes of Ohio. If he
had raked hell and the Republican
party of Ohio with . fine tooth
comb, he could have got no man more
objectionable as an appointee Of a
Democratic Administration than
this mao Noyes. He is scari6ed
with official corruption. He is bills
tered with the Presidential steal Of
1876. He is bowling fraud. and
distasteful even to the Republicans
Why Cleveland should have
chosen this creature. If a Republl-
can necessarily had::to appointed. is
one of the things the Ohio Demo
crats can not understand.
On the protest of an insignificant,
contemptible, Italian robber king,
he withdraws the appointment OF a
gentleman named for the Italian
mission.
He listens and attends to a public
protest from Copiah.
Will he give attention to the Ohio
Democracy? There is not = Dem
ecrat in Ohio who does not regard
the appointment of the infamous
Noyes ~ an insult.
There is a good deal of sweating
under the collar in Ohio. The sweat
from the work of November is not
yet dried. The President don't
want TO gall us too much.
Let him withdraw Noyes, and
,end him, if needs be he must be
recognized, to soma place where
Ealse indsxing is q rule, and where
helping to steal q Presidency is q
.rowning glory.

Cane Presentation.
A PROPER Fourth OF JULY Pro
CEEDING.

When Sheriff Mccarthy re-
tur Led from the Inauguration, he
brought with him from Dick
Harden, the well-known horse
buver of Baltimore, a huge Hick-
ory cane, a present to Parson
Gould, of the Sentinel. The cane
was cut from grove of Hickor-
/! les at the tomb of Washington,
and has been carried by its re
spective possessors to the Inau-
guration of every Democratic
President since Jefferson. The
cane is a huge stick, too heavy
for man of the Parsons physi-
cal weakness to carry. When he
went into conventions and at
tended ratifications, he was com
PEELED to call on the ''devil" to
assist him in carrying it. The
happy thought occurred to him
to donate the cane as a legacy
for all Democratic time to our
candidate for Sheriff, a man of
Democracy and bone and sinew
strong enough to run we'll on a
ticket and carry a heavy cane.
On the last Fourth, Mr.. John
Gallagher was invited to the
Sentinel Office, where the Hick-
ory has been hanging as one of
the established emblems, and
presented with it by the chief OF
staff, in the name of the victorious
and q stout Democracy.
The cane was presented to John
to keep in trust, and to turn it
over to his Democratic successor,
when nominated. with the condi-
ton that it shall be kept by the
Democratic Sheriffs as a Mace of
Office and an emblem of his poll
tics. Should it ever happen that
the line of Democratic sferiffs be
broken, the cane comes back to
the Sentinel office.
Sheriff Gallagher received the
cane with thanks, pledging him.
self to adorn it by his exemplary
and faithful fidelity to
duty and Democracy, promising
also that he or his successor
would carry it TO the next Inau-|
guratlon of a Democratic Presi-
dent.
