A HEALING SPIRIT

Amid her deep sorrow and afiiction
Mrs Grant still retains the composure and
earnestness Of purpose which made her so
worthy partner of the illustrious hus>
band of whom she is bereft. Nothing
could be more thoughtful, delicate and
timely than her request that President
Cleveland should name some of the con-
federate as well as of the Union generals
to oficiate as pallbearers at the funeral.
The president has promptly complied,
and Joseph E. Johnston and Simon B.
Buckner will march beside William T.
Sherman and Philip H. Sheridan in the
sad procession. The selection is well
made, for Grant admired both Johnston
and Buckner When financial disaster be-
fell the ex,president one of the first mes
sages of sympathy be received was from
the man who had; surrendered to him at
Fort Donelson, and it contained check
for SIC. 900 to be accepted as loan.
During the war and subsequently to
the last day of his life Grants dominant
aim and ambition was to restore the Tn
ion. He sincerely desired to obliterste
sectional lines and sectional feeling. That
aspiration shines luminously out in the
eloquent and pathetic message published
after his death, and now the journey of
his mortal remains TO their last resting
place will help to crown the paramount
mission of his life by knitting new bonds
of friendship between the victors and the
vsnquished of twenty years ago. Senti-
meat is something lmpalpable and subtle,
but it is strong as ocean tides. The press
and people of all the southern states sin
cerely mourn the death of this man who
smote them as with the hammer of Thor
Nowhere else in the world has any such
spectacle ever been presented. 1t is now
to be hoped that the more rancorou:
newspapers of the north will endeavor 10
emulate the msgpanimous spirit showr
by Grant and by the ex-confederates who
lament his death
The Rock Island Argus., 1885-08-07

on the silliest conceivable pretext. Other
governments did the same thing and
France herself was SO wrathful at the re>
suit that she smashed and bsnished the
dynasty which had brought such calimi-
ties upon her. Basing their criticism up
on the splenetic diatribes of Hugo's AN.
nee Terrible" the Partisan papers aver
that Grant ignored the friendship due to
sister republic. There was no sister
republic at the time and there might not
have been one yet but for the Prussian
cannon and needle guns.
These flippant French phllippies won't
harm anybody and they won't arouse any
lasting indignation here. They are born
of petulance and sublime self esteem
Hence they won't blind us to the many
good qualities which adorn the citizens Of
our sister republic across the water.

Jones Comes Up Smiling Official
and Political News Items

WASHINGTON CITY, Aug. THE report
Of the committee consisting of MsssrS Thorn.
Garrison and Huntington upon their investi
cation of the coast survey has been submit
t ed to the secretary If the treasury. 1t
states that they took possession of the bureau
on July "a, and conducted an investigation,
leaving no ground for doubt that the
actual condition of the survey was one Of
decentralization and its working inefficient,
unjust and disreputabie. The regulations
are partially to blame, but the superintend.
emit is chargeatle with willingness to avail
himself OF opportunities tor continuance of
such abuses as weakness and procrastination,
favoritism and arrogance, disregard
Of regulations and notorious use
of intoxicantS. This combination seams TO
have been demoralizing TO the subordinates.
The investigation showed large number
of irregularities, which are set forth at
great length, and which involve reckless ex-
| travagance and gross mismanagement The
committee find that Professor Hilgard's
habits and methods, bis failure Of faculty or
| perversion of moral sense, unfit him for a
position Of responsibility.
Evidence was given Indicating Mr.. W. B,
Morgan's neglect to call attention TO unu-
sual or apparently unnecessary changes
while disbursing agent of the bureau and the
report alleges that ne has become addicted
to the use of intoxicants His restoration to
duty is not recommended An early change
is recommended in the interests of morals
and discipline in the position of clerk in
charge of the drawing division now held by
Mr. w. T Bright.

Figures on tho Wheat Crop.

MINNEAPOLIS, MINI. Ang THE fol-
lewing is from the best authorities on the
wheat crop of Minnesota, Iowa and Dakota !:
In northern Minnesota and Dakota the best
promise at present is along the Northern Pa
cifc road from Fargo wet The conditions
have been more favorable in that sec
ton than in any other. The crop
Of Minnesota will hardly be an average
one, say 50,000.0OJ bushels. In Dakota
the increased acreage will make up for
much Of the damage, and the total yield
will be fully as large aS last year, about
% OO0, 900 bushels. Iowa has suffered from
the hot weather, and the yield Of 81, 600, 900
bushels for that state, according to the
official estimate, will probably be reduced
from 3,0o0, 900 TO 1000, 900.

statement publ ned IN the Globe Democrat

pEMoCRATs AND TIE SENATE.

The chances of securing democratic
control of the fiftieth congress are con-
sidered possible though not probable. If
republican is elected or appointed in
Oregon to fiji the vacancy now existing,
the senate Of the forty ninth congress
viii contain foFty,two republicans and
thirtyNfour democrats, the former hav-
ing majority of eight. To overcome
this majority the democrats will have to
hold all their present force and secure
four additional seats. Those, with the
vice presidents casting vote, will enable
them to carry through party measures.
With the forty>ninth congress will ex-
pire the terms of nine democratic senators
from the states of Delaware, Flsrida,
Maryland, Mississippi, Missouri, Nevada,
Tennessee, Texas and West Virginia
There is no doubt about any of these
states returning democrats except Neva.
da, and Senator Fairs personal popularity
is almost sufficient TO count upon his re-
election.
Thus may reasonably be anticipated nc
loss from the states already held At the
tame time the terms of sixteen republican
senators from the following states will
expire: California, Connecticut, Indiana
Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Mime
sofa, Nebraska, New Jersey, New York
Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vir-
ginia and Wisconsin. The democrat:
ought to secure senators from Virginia
Ohio and New York. Not counting New
York and Ohio they would have to gain
three other seats TO make tie in the sen,
ate or four to secure majority. In In
diana there is every probability that {
democrat will succeed Senator Harrison
and in New Jersey, Connecticut anC
Wisconsin there are fighting chances,
With the control of the senate by thu
democrats both branches of congress will
be fully In accord. with the administIa
tion, and the work of purifying ever,
branch Uf the general government can b.
prosecuted without further opposition

TIE PARIS PRESS ON GRANT.

Nothing could more sptly illustrate the
volatility, caprice and narrowness of the
Partisan mind than do the comments of
the Partisan press upon the character,
career and death of General Grant. With
the exception Of lie Temps all of them
guage his life and reputation by single
incident-to wit, the fact that as Presi.
dent Of the United States be sent FORM
al message of congratulation to Kaiser
William over the result Of the Franco.
Prussian war. Everything else sinks out

fence. The United States may be forgis.
en- and may even get a Bartholdi statue
rs a pledge of friendship, but Grants Of
tending cannot be atoned for or forgot-
ten.
This Enthusiastically French mode of
thought is positively amusing rather than
irritating, despite its manifest injustice
and the solemn occasion upon which it is
obtruded. Coming from any other source
the invective would enkindle resentment,
but we do not expect a Partisan journal
to be logical, unbiased or well informed.
President Grant did congratulate the
Kaiser on having emerged victorious from
q war which had been forced upon him
without provocation or justification and

Of Gen. Grant Speaking Of the dead
soldier Mr. Hendricks said: Al heard of

sorrow, although l had been anticipating
his demise ever since the last session Of the
senate early last spring. ! always had
a high regard for Gen. Grant
as a man and great admiration for his abil-
ity as soldier and a statesman. He was
the greatest man Of his time. Always com
posed, firm and self-reliant, in battle, in
high places Of responsibility. and even up TO
the moment Of his death. He never made a
speech, even if but one or two lines in
length, that was not full of wisdom, and
whatever he said was effective and held the
attention Of the public"

The day Of miracles is past, but some
of the cures that have been effected by
that greatest of all modern remedies,
Mishler's Herb Bitters, are so remarkable
in their character that they seem almost

she couldn't live a week. A friend who
had heard of Mishler's Herb Bitters, in

THE pleasing fiction that Judah P.
Benjamin, the confederate secretary of
state, after his escape to Europe, accum-
nlated an immense fortune in the prac-
tice of law in the English courts, seems
destined 10 live perpetually-at least it is
being constantly revived and reasserted
until it has come to have pretty general
acceptance. There is very little basis Of
truth in it. Benjamin got retainers in a
few important cases in London, but he
got no such extraordinary fees as to suf-
icientlY account for the immense fortune
he left TO his family. The probability is
that Benjamine got the great bulk of the
several heavy shipments of gold which
the rebel leaders sent to England and
France within year Of the collapse Of
the rebellion. 1t is well known that vas
sums were sent, and the United States
attempted to recover some of this money
but fruitessly. Benjam unquestionabl!
got bis full share Of his fund, which tht
rebel leader probably intended to solac'
themselves with in their rainy days" af
