The Federal Appointments in Washing
ton Territory.
| WASHINGTON, October 10Th. - Colonel
| Frank J. Parker, of the WalIa Walla States
man, had an extended interview with the
| President to-day in regard to the Federal
appointments in Washington Territory
| He explained to the President the exact
| position of political affairs in the Territory
and said all the Democrats desired was that
| good and faithful members of the party
| should be appointed. Many men had been
l recommended who would not be accepta-
BILE to the people, nor who would creditably
perform their duties, and it was to prevent
such unworthy appointments that Mr..
| Parker came here. The President listened
very attentively to all Colonel Parker
| had to say, asked him great
many questions about the men who had
been recommended for Office, and also
about the condition of the Territory. He
expressed desire to be fully informed
upon the subject, and requested Colonel
Parker to place his statements in writing.
| He assured the Colonel that no man who
was not fully competent, was not good
| Democrat, and was not an upright citizen,
should be appointed if he knew it. Colonel
Parker says that the people of the Pacific
| slope need have no fear of the Presidents
genuine Democracy. He spoke of his great
desire TO build up the party in every State
and Territory in the Union and said that
| he would leave nothing undone on his
part to accomplish that result. Delegate
Voorhees,, of Washington Territory, is also
here.
| "NO Mugwumps Need Apply"
WASHINGTON, October 18TH" No Mug
wumps need apply" was the legend which
startled Mr.. Eiiphalet Sanders, of Brook
| Ign, as he stepped into the White House
| lobby yesterday. The heroic face of old
| Tom Jefferson looked down from a large
| painting on the wall. The mouth of the
great statesman was pursed up in con-
scious power, and scroll of paper lay ex-
tended at his left hand. Some one had, a
| few moments before, with a crayon traced
the words which confronted Sanders, OF
New York. Well, | expected it ~ ex-
| claimed the Empire statesman-and, turn
| ing upon his heel, he started for the depot
| The knowing ones state, however, that the
wag had written better than he knew. and
| that hereafter the Administration will ex-
| tend no more courtesies to the Mugwumps,
who are believed to be hustling back into
| the Republican ranks, whence they came
| in the vain hope of spoils. "No Mug
wumps need apply" will be the shibboleth
of sturdy Democrats from now on.

Railroad Matters.
NEW YORK, October 15th.-Vice-Presi-
dent Croker of the Southern Pacific Com
| pany, SAID to your correspondent this
| morning: The story about the disrup-
| ton of the Transcontinental Pool is all
humbug, and probably gotten up by the
bears for stock-jobbing purposes. | have
had no advices from California about the
refusal of any drafts. My knowledge of
! the subject is CLEANED from Eastern news
| papers. Our company never goes back on
a contract. If the drafts of other roads
were presented and refused, it was because
they were improperly drawn or claimed
more than was due. Our representatives
in San Francisco are not likely to act
| hastily or unwisely.h
