villas ana the civil service.


Washington, Dec. 15-It is charged
that in several cases Postmaster Gen
eral Villas has violated the instructions
and disregarded the wishes of the presi-
dent in making appointments, and has
caused the president to be accused of
treachery to his friends. In 1882 A. w.
Black was appointed postmaster at
Americus, Ga. In 1883 the republicans
asked his removal because he was not
an active republican. An inspector in
vestigated the office and reported that
Black was the best postmaster in
Georgia and that the people
of Americus wanted no change.
This request was repeated in
1884, the Office was again investi-
gated and again it was reported that his
removal was not warranted. After the
election of Cleveland the people of
Americus were so anxious TO have Black
retained that they almost unanimously
signed petition asking Cleveland not
to remove him, and in order to strength
Ell the case the business men persuaded
him to turn ont his republican deputy
and appoint w. r. Jackson, leading
democrat, in his place. On Oct. l. jack
son stole about $1,000 and fed. He was
arrested in California and is now in jail at
Macon, awaiting trial. Postmaster Black
has made up the loss to the government
by Jackson's defalcation, and the last
inspectors report commended him for
it, complimented the management of
the office, and said the people wanted
no change. In November gentleman
from Americus called upon the presi-
dent with a petition for Blacks reten-
ton. The president endorsed the docu-
ment, "Don't remove this man." and
sent it to Villas; but Villas did remove
him, and gave as his reason that Black
was an offensive partisan.

IN Georgia Tuesday evening, aged sew

state in the lower house of congress
through four terms and in the senate
through one term and portion of an
other. He was expelled from the senate
March 14th, 1861, and became soon after
ward secretary of war under the confed-
crate government, holding also the rank
OF brigadier general. Since the war he

the Watertown district of Dakota, is
permitted to announce through the met
ropolitan newspaper that he sis in favor
of the division and admission of the ter

has struck it. He is rather small pota-
toes in the democratic official hill, but
he publicly voices, in his innocence,
that which the large fellows mention
only to themselves in confidence. Evans
further remarks:
It would be very unwise on the part o!

vention which were extremely farcical

The Wisconsin Central people claim to
have perfected arrangements by which the
Chicago & Great Western, which is to give
them an entrance into the heart of Chicago,
can be sufficiently completed within three
months as to allow them to establish a
temporary depot at Polk street, on the east
side of the river. 1t is stated that the new
company has secured all the right of way
from the city limits to the river at Six
teenth street. 1t is further claimed that AL
arrangement has just been completed with
the Burlington, Alton and Fort Wayne
roads whereby the new company will be
allowed to cross the latters tracks near Six
teenth street. The new road is then run
along the west bank of the river, crossing
the latter just south of Twelfth street. Be-
tween the crossing and Twelfth street some
land is to be secured from the Rock Island,
but it is said that the latter has virtually
agreed to dispose of that property to the
new line. The road is then to run along the
east bank of the river to Polk street, hay-
ing already secured two blocks between
Twelfth and Polk streets. upon which land
it is the intention to erect temporary de-
pots. 1t is the intention to run the road up
to Harrison street, where permanent pas
senger depot is to be erected, but the land
between Polk and Harrison is not easy to
acquire, as some OF it is school land and
some belongs to the government. Conse-
quently it may take. some time before the
road will be able to get further north than
Polk street.

APPEALED.

The people of Minnesota will be gratifed
to read the announcement in this mornings
GLOBE that the notorious tax-title decision
is to be carried to the supreme court of the
United States. There is every reason to
believe that the supreme court of the
United States will decide that the present
iniquitous law as it has been interpreted by
the supreme court of this state is in con-
tiict with the plain provisions of the federal
constitution. 1t is long road to travel to
get the relief which might have been had BY
the short cut of an extra session of the
legislature, but as there is no other way to
secure the remedy the people of the state
will have to wait with patience until relief
comes. Our evening contemporary is re-
sponsible for the statement that the law for
the enforcement of the payment of delln-
quent taxes was drafted by the chief JUS
tice of the supreme court before he went on
the bench and for which he received fee
of $500.

kick, they will find mighty
firm man to kick against in the person of
Gen. JOHNSTON. He is a military man by
education and understands the value of dis
cipline and the necessity for enforcing it.
In his management of the Pacific roads he
is starting out just as he would if he was
taking command of a military department.
lie first informs himself of what is required
of him in his new position and then pro-
ceeds to accomplish it with all the precision
and systematic methods of a military COM
mander. When he issued his circular to
the railway companies prescribing rules for
the government of his department he did it
with the full knowledge of what
the law required of him and exacted
of them, and he meant every word of it. 1t
is general order from headquarters and as
such is to be obeyed without any questions
as to the expediency of the order. While
to some minds the restrictions may seem a
little harsh, it is fortunate for the country
that the Pacific railway commission is at
last under the guidance of a man with an
iron will and the nerve to perform his duty
regardless of consequences. Gen. JOHN
sToN is going to bring the railroads right
up to the scratch, kicking or no kicking,
and he is going to make them comply with
every requirement of the law.
