A Slow Coach.

Turn the rascalS out, was tho
potent battle cry which led the Dom
ocratic hosts TO victory in November
ana the assertion by President
Cleveland that he would turn ont
every Office holder who had taken
partisan interest III the canvas filed
every of gondAsSysrnmont
with hopo.E The people were willing
to give the Pres 3ent ample time for
mature deiiU,lat Il ~ to his np-
pointmets; but the moment when
forbearancc ceases to be n y-rtue is
rapidly approaching, owing to the
Oily dallying policy pursued up TO
the present time by the Chief Exec
u'ive.
Making allowances for rca-
sonablc time in which TO give due
consideration, in order that injustice
be done to no one, and to cover all
appearances Of seeming undue haste,
the period at which President
Cleveland should arouse from his
lethargy and act energetically has
long since arrived. 1t is doubtful
whether the people are in n temper
that viii brook further delay.
Take, for example, the post Office
and mail service in this section Of
the country. While many of the
present incumbents are, III all re
spects, acceptable to the people in
their several localities, there are
thousands who are objectionable for
every reasonable and valid account
and who should be replaced without
flu tier procrastination. Many Of
these appointees Were not citizens Of
the parishes or counties, nor even OF
the States, in which they hold their
Offices. Many-we should say al
most every one with republican pre-
delictions have taken active and on
thusiastic part in parry politics,
while q large number have been m
been found wanting" by, an admin
istra,ion OF their own political bed
fellows. Notably among the latter
class are the post masters nj New
Orleans and Nicksburg, Undar the
first o. second class are ranged near
ly every republican post master in
every county and parish throughout
the South. And yet these officials
remain. Indeed it is high time for
the President to act and to act deci-
sively. Let there be n clean sweep
