at is clear that there will be many changes
in the service in the South, because there ought
to bemany. In the customs, internal revenue
and Attorney Generals branches of the ser

poses ~. Y. Times.
That is it exactly-because" there ought
to be many" President Cleveland is, we
believe, sincere in his determination to
carry out civil service reform, and to do
this conscientiously, he will have to break
hundreds of those who have simply used
their offices for party purposes, and indeed
owe their appointment to those Offices to
the fact that they gave them better field
for party work. Civil Service demands
the heads of these active partizans and it
is these that the executive of civil service
is after.

REAPING THE CROP,

REAPING THE CROP.
The most important single factor in the
overthrow of Gen. Malone IN 1888 was
the way in which he had managed his
party. That way had been so autocratlc,
so impregnated with bossism, that the
voters of his own party would not stand
it. They didn't propose to have their po-
litical conventions managed, and the
fruits of victory disbursed by the caprice
Of one man rather than by the will of the
party, so they helped to overthrow it. In
1884 this spirit Of independence Was mani
tested again in the Fourth congressiona al
district, and while Malone beat it down.
he by no means subdued it. Its leader III
that district then was Gov. VIM. =.

THE STA UNION GRAIN
RKET1

It is quite evident by this time that til e
severe winter has been very trying, and
the nightly freezing and daily thawing
of this month very damaging to the wheat
The current prices all over the world are
too low to encourage liberal spring sowing
and the acreage in the West will be less
than usual. These considerations com
bine to influence farmers who can do SO,
to hold their wheat, and tn result is that
the movement in the article is restric-
ted by limited offerings, and it is likely to
be so until May.
The special feature in our local market
is the advance in hay. Prime timothy
will now bring $14.0O. Glover seed is still
declining the best of it now selling at $4 rs.
Oats suitable for seed are higher, say 40c
By the way, we notice large quantities Of
oats from Ohio, are being bought by our
county farmers for seed.

THEY DESER V.E SYMPATHY,
NOT ANA TIL EMAS

~ " Z1Lf II L LII IL
There is some outspoken antagonism in
Virginia to the plan of having all the
Federal appointments to office In this
State, at the absolute disposal of the Con-
gresham in whose district they lie and
where the applicants live. There is most
opposition to it among those applicants
who, for one reason or another, think
their Congressman prefers somebody else.
One of our Democratic contemporaries op-
poses the plan because it will enable a
Congressman TO build up support to re-
turn him in future. Possibly that may
be true, but as far as we can view the
field in Virginia just now, the absolute
ownership by Congressman of the Federal
appointments will cost more of them their
seats, than it will aid to re-eect. The
low murmur of indignation over the I'M
expected delay of the Administration in
making changes, is lost in the deep NUT
tered curses on the Congressman who has
already ''commltted" himself to some
man, or who does not take personal and
active interest in forwarding the applica-
tions of six OF his constituents for one and
the same place. Many Democratic seat
in the next congress will show new Dem
ocratlc face in 1t, and all because the
Democrats carried the Federal patronage
at the last election. We say what we do
know, when we say that there are no men
in the Commonwealth of Virginia who
more deserve our sympathy. our pity and
our prayers than the Democratic Con-
gressmen; or who are now receiving more
literally, instead of that sympathy, the
fierce anathemas not only of the privates
but of the ''inf1uential' men who are ap-
plicants, or who have friends that are.
Compared with the happy time when there
was an adverse administration, when thew
were not expected to get an Office for any
body. and when they had only to draw
So, COO and fiercely damn the powers that
be, their present situation is as Hades to
Paradise. In the good old times prior to
last November, a Democratic opgressman
mad hardly an enemy outside of the
I opposite party. In the evil times upon
which he has now fallen, large body of
his own party are more anxious to knife
him than his political opponents are. We
doubt if even the Hon. John T. Harris,
who knows more about the working of the
popular mind and how to address himself
to 1t than any Virginlan we ever knew,
would be equal to the present emergency.
In behalf of our Congressman we would
invoke the old Spanish proverb, which
doubtless originated in the time of the
lnqulsltion, Abuse is wasted on the man
whose bed is a gridiron"
