IL would appear that the Jews of Damnat, city
and province of Morocco, are having pretty hard
time. Until recently it had been their custom to
nav backsheesh to one or more Of the wandering
tribes of the vicinity who in return furnished them
with fairly good police protection. But the Gov
ernor of Damnat, being a state of chronic hard
ap-ness smote his beard when no heard of this
arrangement the part Of the Jews. and declared
that it was a shame to waste good backsheesh on
q lot of wandering tribes. He therefore issued q
decree that hereafter he would protect the lives and
property of the Jews himself, and ordered them to
nay him for this service. The Jews obasrA this

The people of Suffolk County unhappy be-
cause Kings County has purchased large farm
there on which to erect branch lunatc asylums.
There seems to be no good reason for this opposi-
tion. The asyums are not a source of danger in
Kings County, and there is reason to suppose
that thcy will be any more dangerous in
suffolk County. The advantage of housing the
insane in separate buildings a large farm is now
generally recognized by insanity experts. An ep-
preparation was made two wears ago for the pur-
chase of such n farm for New FORK; bat there has
been an unaccouniable delay in making tho pur-
chase.

FROM BAD TO WORSE.

The long looked-for transfer at
Delta turns out to be a mere scheme
of highway robbery. worse than
the old Ferry outrage. The trans
fer from Delta to Kleinston costs
each passenger fifty cents, and from
Kleinston to the V. & NJ. Depot,
ten cents more, making $1.35 from
Tallulah to Vicksburg. The old way
was cheaper, by twenty-five cents,
as the Ferry charged twenty-five
cents and the steam cars ten cents
up to town. There should be no adj
ditional charge to passengers, Tor
the transfer or on the other eide. 4
is outrageous, utterly uncalled-for'
and, if persisted in, the parish Of
Madison should demand large bo'
nus for the Ferry privilege from the

HE DOES CHANGE.

1t was announced some six or
seven months ago, that Mr.. Cleve.
land would fill the Offices in the
Territories with residents of the
Territories. 1t has also been the
boast of the admirers of Mr.. Cleve-
land, that he was man of wonder
full firmness, that having once taken
a position, he was as unalterable
as the laws of the Modes and Per.
slams, which means in plain Ian
guage that he was extremely bull
headed. To show how consistent
the great Reform President is, the
list of appointments announced on
Oct. %, included . New York man
for Justice of the Supreme Court
of Dakota, a California man for
similar position in Arizona, which
was not 30 bad, an Illinois man
also Justice for Arizona, a Michigan
man for the same, and an Indiana
man for Chief Justice in New Mex.

Then to support the statement
that he never changes, comes Mr..
Bacon, his brother-in-law, who
says that Cleveland will not change
his policy, except to be more strict,
and adds Democrats who look
forward to a moro liberal policy
towards them may as well get over
the notion, for the people have got
to be more honest with the Presi.
dent" ct might improve things
if the President were more honest
with the people.) A Washington
dispatch to the N. Y. Post says :
The President stated to gentle.
man whom he called into consulta.
ton yesterday that he "will rigidly
adhere to his civil service reform
policy, whatever may happen in OF
out of his party" which translated
means that rather than give up his
own notions, the democratic party
may go to pieces. as far as he il
concerned. Mr.. Eustis was by M
means too previous.
