WASHINGTON, August l5.-0Wing to the
rumors Of injury by ~grasshoppers in parts
of Montana, the signal bureau has ct Prot.
Riley's request instructed its agents in the
Northwest to telegraph at once observations
OF injury or movements instead of sending
them monthly as heretofore. Prot. Riley
also sent an agent to the field whose re
ports confirm previous statements. Not
only are there large members Of this dis
tinctive Rocky Mountain species at work,
but the common native and migratory spe-
cies are also much more Numerous than
usual. At Fort Buford and Poplar Pine
Agency the locusts are very abundant and
are damaging the crops. On July "a, dur
ing the middle of the day, a large proper
ton of the Rocky Mountain species left
toward the East or Southeast.
Commissioners Miller Cuts the Time.
Mr.. Miller, Commissioner of Internal
Revenue, yesterday telegraphed to all Col
lectors who have been receiving transportar
ton bonds in which the time specified for
delivering the spirits at the port Of exporta-
ton exceeds 80 days, that they are not to
receive such bonds, after the 18th inst.
today, thus virtually repeating the seven
months clause contained in the circular OF
January Sd, 1885, extending the bonded
period. The Collectors were further in
structed that they are not to approve trans
portation bonds after the expiration of the
period OF three years mentioned in the ware
housing bond, thereby shortening the time
by one month allowed under circular 2S3 Of
January 18th, 1885.
The Cattlemen Must Certainly Go.

Postmaster Pearson, Of New York, re-
marks that all his subordinates have
been appointed according 10 merit aud
efficiency, which tho new administration
il trying to establish in all the depart
ments."
Tho new administration is not trying
to establish merit and efficiency" in all
or in any Of the departments, for the new
administration found no necessity for
doing any such thing.
IL found merit and efficiency thor
oughly we'll established in all the depart
ments; it found so much merit in the
officials and employees. found their work
so efficiently performed, found all the de-
partmental mechanism so carefully Ad-
justed and working so smoothly, so sue
cessfully, that the cabinet officials frankly
confessed their happy disappointment,
and as frankly conceded that there were
no "rascals" TO turn out"
Tho administration is not so hypoorti-
cal as 10 claim that tho removals which
have been made have been IN the interest
of ''merit and efficiency" And even the
New York postmaster must be aware OF
til, notorious fact that tho sole object oil
oyals in tho departments thus far has
b, l to make places for Democrats.
In obedience to the demands Of tho
party, tho President has removed "meriI
and efficiency" aud put ineIperienco-

Don't Turns Back.

Although we have tho word of our
morning contemporary that it "is not an
organ by any manner OF means nor in
any sense of the word, yet one canuot
help noticing that it possesses the two
great indispensable characteristics of an
organ-it pcnetrates tho executive mind
and it usually make, its music accord
Herewith.
Onc of the evident intentions of Presi-
dent Cleveland Is to impress the colored
citizens favorabiy, and thero is not the
least objection to his loing SO, but he will
utterly fail il he persists in calling their
attention to tho mast lin fact he cannot
afford to go back further than to tho date
Of his own inauguration.
Our morning contemporary signif-
cantly gives peculiar prominence to an
incident which occurred at the white
house on Saturday last. A delegation of
colored citizens had called on the execu-
tive to invite him to review their pro-
ce'slOn on emancipation day and to be
present ut their exercises in the evening.
An address was presented to the Presi-
dent, welcoming him to tho national cap.
ital in tho namo of 10000 colored citi-
zens, and asking equal rights throughout
the Unitcd States. TO this. tho Post ays,
the President listened attentively and
promised to review their procession and,
il possible, to attend their entertainment
in the evening. All Of which was very
gracious. But the Post adds:
Just rs the delegation was leaving, the Pres.
idcnt Cullcd their attention TO an article pub
lishCd IN the Be just after the election which
stated that II would cost millions Of lives to
iuadgurato President Cleveland, aud was gen.
crally incendiary in It's tone. ~ hope" said
he, "the colored citizens of the District will
not allow themselves TO be Influenced by the
editors of such sheets as this. Good day, gen
tlemen"
Now, us THE REPUBLICANS business is
with the living present, not with the
dead and buried past, we have neither
time space, nor inclination to overhaul
the muck heaps Of oblivion in search of
shreds aud patches of Democratic history.
But we desire to say to the President
that, If he will candidly consider the
course of the Democratic party toward
tho black men of the United States for
the past sixty years, and especially its
course on the questions of emancipation
aud enfranchisement, he will not be sur
prised that tho election Of James Blu
chanan's first Democratic successor ore-
ated in some minds, the feeling that was
voiced in the paper to which he re-
! ferrod.
The REPUBLICAN, sincerely hopes that
President Cleveland will ihauGurate an
era of good feeling, in which hatred OF the
colored people will die out but If he is to
do this be must let the past alone, for ho
cannot turn to page of our history from
1920 to 1855 that does not convict his
party of cruel injustice to the negroes.

The Eastern War cloud.

That the beginning Of bloody and
deplorablc conflict between England aud
Russia is imminent Is plain to the most
careless observer Affairs have taken
such a turn that nothing but a retreat
OH the part Of Russia can prevent war.
Tho position taken by England is such
that 1t is wholly loft to Russia to say
VIII ether peace shall prevail or struggle
be forthwith procipitated, the end Of
which no ono can foretell. If, at the
supreme moment, tho Car shrinks from
the nrbitrament Of arms aud disavows
responsibility for tho attack upon
pcnidoh, coupled with an evidence Of
good faith in the shape Of Nh order for
tho withdrawal of his troops from the de-
batable territory, peace may be preserved.
But IL is apparent that England's GU
gagemonts with the Ameur of Afghanh-
tan, and the necessity Of maintaining her
prestige in India, have put her under the
necessity Of leaving the decision between
peace and war to bo made ut st. Peters
burg.
But q short time ago tho burden Of
opinion on tho continent WIS to tho effect
that tho differences between the two ma
tions would be adjusted without a resort
TO arms. But 1t Ia noticeable that the
foreign dispatches all show that radical
change of Judgment has been caused by
the Russian attack upon Peuideh, and
from no point is u confident hope Of peace
advanced. England suspects that Rus
sian professions of peaceful intentions
have been made merely to gain time TO
mass her troops in position for au nd.
banCe upon Herat, aud continental com.
ment is now to tho same oii'oct. If this
view is strictly true war may bo set down
as certainty.
In view Of the threatening aspect OF
affairs 1t is incumbent upon tho admins.
tration TO exercise great vigilance in the
way of precautionary measures against
tho commission Of acts within tho juris.
dction of the United States that may
hereafter cost us heavily. Rumors are
prevalent that efiJrts are being made to
buy and ut out American vessels to prey
upon tho commerce Of the prospective
contestants. With the memory of the
Geneva award still frosh there Is every
incentive to induce prompt action to pre-
vent violation of our neutrality laws.
Americans have no concern in the threat
oned war except as onlookerS, and no eS-
cuso would be made By the people for a
carelessnes' that would permit vessels to
sail from our ports TO enact the role of an
English or Russian Alabama" with the
result that the United States might even.
tually be called upon to pay a heavy bill
of damages

have no patience with the Mugwump
cant which tries to clothe the old ways of

To satisfy the Mugwumps the President
departed from his rule Of conduct so far

become Pearson and his backers to accept
the situation as it is, instead of weaving
