OFFENSIVE PARTIsANsHIP,

The action of the President in the case of | District Attorney Benton, who was an '.of- fensive partisan" during the last campaign, and was forgiven for it, is puzzler to the oficeholders and the civil service reformers. In his letter of forgiveness the President says: did not intend to condemn the mak- ing of a political speech by federal official to his neighbors and friends at any time and place where it was merely incidental, if the speech itself was decent and fair. But do not think that such an official enter business political campaign, and, consent ing to 8 long list of engagements to address political meetings, widely separated and of daily recurrence, fill such engagements with out neglectins his duty if he holds an office worth having, nor without taking with him into the canvass his official power and inhu- ence. Therefore this course is condemned. The number of speeches that can be proper ly made cannot be specified, nor the time when, the place where, nor the circum- stances in which they are proper; nor can their character be prescribed. But correct line of conduct can be determined on with out difficulty, believe, in the light of de- sire to follow the spirit of tLe admonition
 
 given.
 We believe that most officeholders will not agree with the President that correct line of conduct in this matter can be determined on without difficulty. They will find a great deal of difficulty in deciding what to do and what not to do And some of them will very likely find themselves in the situation of the maSRho had to die to find out wheth- CT he had eaten mushrooms or toadstools. The civil service reformers are as much per plexed by this letter as the officeholders. They think that the oficeholders should not be allowed to be the judges concerning how much political work it is safe to do. To the reformers the action and words of the Presi- dent are a severe shock. Thus the New York Evening Post mourns: We supposed that positive and definite rule had been submitted for the interested notions of 100, 900 officeholders, each probably holding different view of his duty. We supposed also that check had been put on the practice by small officials of publicly de- nouncing that portion of the community from which they draw half their salaries, and of candidates who may at any election become their superior officers. But it seems as if we were just where we were last June, and as if the term Offensive partisanship" were again surrounded by the obscurity which for soma time after MT. Cleveland came into office deprived it of large part of it's value
 Probably Democratic Offensive partisan ship" will be surrounded by more and more obscurity as time goes on.

ened by the outrageous bray, summarily dis missed the claim

M. Pasteur's latest communication to the Academy of Science on his researches into
 the cause of hydrophobia is cheering. He states that since his experiments were first tried on human beings 2,490 persons have been inoculated at Paris; and that of these 80 were from England, 2 from British India, IS from the United States, and so on-the Iarg- est number, viz, 191, being from Russia Out of TOO French pc, sons who were treat ed ten died, but M, Pasteur proves, by sta
 tstics furnished by mayors and others, that
 very small minority of people who were
 bitten during the years 1SS5-6 in France
 did not come to him for treatment, and that
 of these seventeen died of hydrophoba. In
 the Paris hospitals the mortality from hydro
 phobia was eleven per annum for five years.
 Last year the number was twenty one, but since November, 1885, when the Pasteur sys-
 tenn was introduced, only two persons have died, and these had not been inoculated.
 One died after inoculation, but his treatment
 had been under the old system of mild in jec
 ton. Most of those who underwent the mild
 treatment were children who had been bitten severely in the face, and it was only after sad experience that the necessity for stronger injections was made evident. At present, in cases of severe bites in the head or face, inoculatfons of more intense kind-that is to say, composed of virus freshly extracted arc r1aa3
