Senator Miller's Statement That the Re
publicans Favor Civil Service Reform
Contrary to History.
Mr.. Warren Miller is the senior
United States Senator from New York,
and, although it would be a somewhat
exaggerated statement to allege that
he is the leader of the Republicans OF
that State, it is not going beyond bounds
to say that he is certainly as influential
as any of his brethren. In taking the
chair at Saratoga as the temporary pre-
siding officer of the Republican State
Convention, he made a few remarks
suitable to the occasion, in the course
IF which he uttered the following senti-
ment: when we turned over to the OPP
positiop,the civil service of the Govern,
ment, 2 better civil service existed

The New York Republicans, and, for
that matter, all Republicans, now that
they are out OF power, find no difficulty
in resolving in State conventions in
favor of Civil-Seryice reform. To this
cause they have not the slightest obiec-
ton to pledging their lives their fort
tunes and their sacred honor. The
resolutions look well on paper, sound
well when voiced by experienced read
ing secretaries, and do no HARM because
they mean nothing so long as the Dem
ocrats have the reins of government.
But if any one has any curiosity to
know just the sort of civil service Re-
publicans approve, precisely the kind
they would set in motion had tney the
responsibility, all that is necessary to
do is to grasp to the full extent Of its
meaning the quoted utterances Of SEN
ator Miller.
He speaks not alone for himself not
only for the Republicans of New York,
but for the party throughout the coun-
try. When Mr.. Cleveland was inaugu-
rated mo better civil service existed
under the sun" according to this emil
nent authority. What that civil service
was we all know. The Federal office
holders were organized into vast po-
litical machine which sought first to
control the Republican party and then
| the country. Under the prevailing
abuses it was as much a political Of
Tense to be Republican, if opposed tc
the ruling clique, as it was to be
Democrat, no one of either stripe being
allowed to hold Office if it were possible
to prevent il.
These o1iceholders also were re-
quired to pay to party committees fixed
percentages apportioned according to
their salaries, to defray the expenses of
political campaigns, and were com
PEELED always to vote as the bosses OF
the ruling faction dictated, and to make
political speeches, if they could, and do
such other work as was demanded, under
pain of dismissal. Their enforced votes
and contributions turned the scale in
1880, when their aid was so valuable
that even General Garfield asked how
the departments were doing, and made
the contest so close in 1876 as to invite
the fraud:which was pcrpetrated. The
civil service which the Republicans con-
Quoted, which was in existence, accord.
ing to Senator Miller, when we turned
it over to the opposition, and than
which mo better civil service existed
under the sun, was the spoils system,
pure, simple and unadulterated, under
} which the country revolted and from
which it is to be hoped we are now free
for good and all.
: There is considerable difference Of
opinion among Democrats as to the
, efficacy of the present Civil-Seryice
: statutes and the ability of the men who
are charged with their execution, but
, there is none rs to the merits of the
; civil service as it existed prior to March
4, 1885. Democrats are rs much OPP
= posed to the whole system as Warner
5 Miller and his Republican friends favor
. it. There is no trouble about drawing
the line and framing an issue right here

Suffering" Negroes.

An interesting incident, illustrative
of the feeling of the whites for their
former slaves, is furnished in Atlanta
The Constitution of that city says "On
the premises of Senator Brown Ives an
invalid female servant whose health
failed while she was in the service Of
his family. She requires the daily treat
ment of physician, who is paid by the
Senator to attend her. 1t is necessary
for her to 60 to the DOCTOR office every
day. Regularly every morning Senator
Browns carriage drives to the door of
the cottage which is allotted to the in
valid negro woman. She is assisted
into it by the Senator's coachman and is
driven to see the doctor. In front of his
Office the carriage waits until the daily
consultation is concluded, and then the
woman is carried home. The suffering
of the negroes in the South has never
yet been adequately portrayed.

Why Not Go West!

Mr. Editor BY chance my eyes fell upon
an article in your paper, written by gem
tleman from the town of Mortified, giving
some very glowing accounts of Vermont,
which l will admit are true to some extent;
but fear the gentleman (as he stated that
he had tried the Western country was one
of the fant-hearted, and did not give this part
of the country fair trial. tits all true that
where the country is new, the people do
not indulge in the luXuries of life, as they
do in Vermont; but wait until the country
has been settled as long as Vermont has,
and i will say that here in the state of
Illinois there are just as good barns and
houses as ever were built in Vermont and
as for teams Vermont never had better
warehouses; than are owned by farmers in
this part of the country. Your correspond
ent speaks of the cheapnesS of farms in Ver-
mont. That may be very true, but there is
land here in this state that can be bought
just as cheaply as any land in Vermont.
One can till eighty acres of land here with
less labor than two men can till the same
amount in Vermont, and realize more profit
from his crop here than can be realized in
Vermont. What il we should use the same
amount of fertilizer to the acre that the
farmers do in Vermont? You could not be-
gin to raise the amount to the acre that we
could do not wish to cast any reflection
on the state of Vermont, for that is my ma
tive place, and it is good place to live, If
you only have money. Why is IL that so
many of our young men with small means
come West? 1t is because they can invest
their mony better here than there. This
gentleman from Mortified must have been
pretty full of gas when he wrote that piece
for your paper, and did not know what he
was talking about. III my time was not
limited, | might extend this article so as to
prove to him that he was wrong in his
views. j. N A., Chebanse, Ill.

General Grants MementOs.

The swords, military and civil testi-
monials lately belonging to General
Grant, and which were recently con-
veyed to Mrs. Grant by Mr.. w. II.
Vanderbilt, whose property they had
become, have been by Mrs. Grant pre-
scented to the national government.
The president has notified congress of
the gift and asked that body to take
suitable action to accept the trust and
to provide for its secure custody. The
president says: appreciation of Gen
eral Grants achievements and recogni-
ton of his just fame have in part taken
the shape of numerous mementos and
gifts which, while dear to him, possess
for the nation an exceptional interest.
These relics, of great historical value,
have passed into the hands of another,
whose considerate action restored the
collection to Mrs. Grant as a life trust,
on the condition that at the death of
General Grant, or sooner, at Mrs.
Grants option, it shall become the
property of the government, as set forth
in the accompanying papers. In the
exercise of the option thus given her,
Mrs. Grant elects that the trusts shall
forthwith determine, and asks that the
government designate a suitable place
of deposit and responsible custodian
for the collection. The nature of the
gift and the value of the relics which
the generosity of private citizen,
joined with the high sense of public re-
gard which animates Mrs. Grant, have
thus placed at the disposal of the gov
eminent, demand full and signal recog-
milton on behalf of the nation at the
hands of its representatives. In
this connection l may pertinently
advise the pending legislation, in the
senate and house of representatives,
looking to national recognition of
General Grants eminent services by
providing the means for his restoration
to the army on the retired list. That
congress, by taking such action, will
give expression to the almost universal
desire of the people of this nation, is
evident, and l earnestly urge the pas
sage of an act similar to senate bill
number two thousand five hundred
thirty, which, while not interfering
with the constitutional prerogative of
appointment, will enable the president,
in his discretion, to nominate General
Grant as general on the retired list"
