Airy Non Commissioned Officers.
To the Editor OF THE LEADE
Fort LARAMIE, Jan. 17.-Non com
missioned officers of cavalry and artillery
are more decent in their ways than those
of the infantry. Cook Sergeant Watson.
Of Co. F, It'll infantry, has not yet ceased
his bad habits. He continues tyranizing
and ~wrangling with the privates like the
iackdaws in the rookery. He lets some
men Of said company go inside the dining
room for their meals in their brown suits
if they choose. Whether it is out of spite
or i'll feeling he has against others of same
company, he chases them out when they
go in in like dress. He himself takes his
meals in the same room in his shirt
sleeves. | suggest there might be more
harmony amongst the soldiers of the It'll
infantry, if its officers would only adopt
a special regulation, to have every man in
a company take a turn at wearing the
stripes, and no one hold them more than
a month at a time. In these days there
is no trust in non CONS. after they are
wearing them for six months.

Various Live Matters Reported BY Three
Dinerent Correspondence

To the Editor OF THE LEADER.
Fort LARAMIE, Jan. 16.-I would
wish you would insert in the columns of
your paper an incident which happened
on the night Of the 18th inst, which /
think is worthy of note. Atrain Of about
eighteen wagons started from here on the
morning of the 18th to complete the tele-
graph line to Fort Robinson. After
ploughing through the drifting snow all
day we arrived at Rawhide about 8 p. m.
Next day we started for ~Runningwater.
We got there about dark and commenced
loading u wagons. We got four of
them loaded that night We all under
stood hat We would lay over next day and
load the remainder of our wagons, but in
stead, the next morning the sergeant took
our mess wagons along and four of the
wagons which were loaded on the night
previous. We got the remainder of our
train moving about 10 M. and started for
Rawhide, a distance of thirty miles. We
travelled on until midnight, when the
mules began to give out. Each teamster
unstrung his mules and let them loose. 1t
was blowing a hurricane at the time.
After unhitching every man took to the
prairie and all got lost. We remained
wandering through the hills for several
hours, not knowing where to go. One or
two Of the men got badly frozen. We all
got in a group TO keep each other warm,
with the few remaining mules on the out
side as a protection against the storm.
We remained in this manner until about
3 a. M, when we heard somebody give a
shout. We answered it several times,
thinking it was a guide from camp, but it
turned out to be one Of our men, called
Maloney, who was missing during the
night. He directed us to where we got
some dry wood, close to a cattle roundup.
There we made a fire after great difficulty.
Only for that / do firmly believe we would
all have frozen to death before morning,
as several Of the men were insensible.
Here we remained until daybreak when
we got into camp more dead than alive.
As you sec, by bad management and want
Of thought, twelve mems lives were put in
great danger. In the first place we had
no right to start SO late in the day, and
secondly the mess wagons had no right to
leave the train.

the possession of the Offices Only six months
have elapsed since they got possession of the
national administration and yet we hnu one
of their prominent leaders appealing 70 tiiciii
to bury the past and try and unite Tue par
ty. A half year of limited patronage mas
broken them all up. What would have been
fine result had President Cleveland made the
clean sweep which they have been clamor-
ing for we can only infer from what has re-
suited from the comparatively slight taste of
the offices that he has permitted them to in
dulge in. But Judging from what has hap
pened there can be little doubt that had the
President handed over to them all the pat
ronage the Democracy of Maine would have
been converted into a band of Ishmaelites.
The truth is, and it is beginning to dawn
upon the Democrats now, that the offices are
quite as fruitful a source of weakness as of
strength There are, to be sure, a considera-
BILE number of voters who, having no politi-
cal convictions always ally themselves with
the party of the ms. We do not intend to
dispute the truth of the Scriptural asser-
ton that where the carcass is there will the
eagles be gathered together. If the
size OF Cne CARCASS were Ill propoi-
ton to the number of eagles, if
there were offices enough to go round, then
the possession of government patronage
would no doubt be very important factor
in determining the strength of party. But
the political eagles who gather about new
administration are always vastly out of pro-
portion to the size of the carcass. Only a
few of them can be fed and the great ma
jority must of necessity go away hungry.
The number of the dissatisfied will always
largely exceed the number of the satisfied,
and dissatisfied office seeker soon turns up
in the other party.

Judge sCleaves's friends have issued a
statement which is published elsewhere for
the purpose of disproving the assertion of
the Bangor Commercial that all the traders
and dickerers in politics supported him for
the .collectorship. How it disproyes the
Commercials assertion we fail to see. It
does show undoubtedly that he had some
support outside of the TRADERS and
dickerers'' but it fails to show that the
''traders and dickerers" were not supporting
him also. 1t is little curious that in this
list the name of the Hon. Simon S. Brown
does not appear. Certainly Mr.. Brown is
too conspicuous a person to be forgotten.
Was his name left out because he has the
reputation of being dickerer? How does
it happen too that the name of the Hon.
Daniel H. Thing of Mt. Vernon, dis
tinguished supporter of Judge Cleaves. who
was a candidate for Congress last year, is
left out? Is it because of certain rumors
that have been afloat that would imply that
he is a dickerer? Where is the name of Mr..
Trueman Harmon, eX-collector of Belfast,
who was supposed to be booked for deputy
relationship? Where are the names of the
three distinguished citizens of Cape Eliza
beth who had their gripsacks all packed
ready to advance upon the custom house the
moment the telegraph flashed the appoint
ment of Judge Cleaves? Was this list made
up with a view to leaving out all the
dickerers? However it isn't our funeral.

TIE WEAKNESS OF PATRONAGE

For the last quarter of a century the Demo-
Gratis have dinned it into the ears of the pub
lie that the offices are a source Of political
strength. Republican victories they have
been in the habit of attributing in large
measure to the possession of government
patronage. Give US the offices, they
have said, 'and we will win victories"
Well, they have now got the offices, not SO
many as they want but enough to enable
them to accomplish something if there were
any virtue in offices, and what have they
done? They have suffered defeat in Ohio
by larger plurality than year ago, when
they held none of the offices, they are in
mortal fear of losing the legislature in Vir-
ginia, and in New York they are in a state
bordering ON panic. If the offices have had
any effect on their canvasses it has been
bad one.
The Maine Democracy have. never been ex-
actly band Of brothers, there have always
been chickering's among them, but we doubt

nearly so, as the time given must not exceed three

and the balance in equal payments, running
over two or three months, excepting when the

given, but having marked the goods at this low
figure we wish it understood that the sale shall be
