The loyalty of the democracy to re
form" in general, and TO civil service
reform in particular, is well illustrated
by the action of the democratic ma
jority in the House of Representatives,
which has refused to appropriate any
thing for the salaries or any of the
other expenses of the Civil Service
commission unless the rules shall be
so amended that democrats shall re-
ceive appointments in all cases. All
these things are being added to the
enormous score against the party in the
minds of the people. Aside from self
ish ofllce-seekers, every intelligent
man in the land, irrespective of polf
tics, is in favor of civil service reform.
IL the democrats will not carry it out,
the people will see that its nlanage-
nent is placed in the hands of the re-
publican party, which first put the law
in operation. Blade.

There has been considerable rejoic.
ing in the democratic camp over the
Oregon election, which latter returns
show 10 have been rather "previous. -
We are glad our Bourbon brethren
had their laugh promptly, for had
they waited few days they would
have found no occasion for hilarity.
The latest returns show that, of the
seven candidates before the people, the
republicans elected at least four, in
GLIDING their candidate for Congress.
They would also have elected their
citsditate for governor had it not been
for the third-party, prohibtionists
who made the fight upon the head of
the ticket, and as usual elected de-
term:ned opponent of prohibition in

The Louisville Courier-Journal
boasts that the south voted as solidly
on the tariff bill as it ever did on any
measure and says: THE traitors by
whose votes the Morrison bill was
beaten are from New York, Pennsyl-
vania, New Jersey and Ohio, with a
few scattering ones elsewhere. In
this era of reconciliation those who
fought against the union must not be
called traitors, because they went with
their states and it is termed Haunting
the bloody shirt; but those democrats

and containing very nearly as much
nutriment as oats. 1t has an unde-
served reputation as productive OF

pecially being considered injurious to
pigs which are Uttered with it. We
have never noticed anything of this
kind in many years use of it, but on
the contrary have found this grain a
very useful one, aud one of the east
est to grow. 1t is sown at a convent
ent time, will produce large yield if
it has good ground, and it is easily
thrashed. When mixed with corn and
rye in equal parts it is one of the best
foods for horses, cows and pigs, and
for the popular cakes for the table in
winter it is unsurpassed by any other
grain. For these reas ons every farm
err should grow an acre or two, and
provide q good piece of land for it.
We have grown seventy bushels &c

UNJUsTIFIABLY SHOT.

A Pinkerton Detective Who is Too
Quick Tempered for His Position.
CHICAGO, July t3.-A serious affair oc-
Cured last evening at the Forty-third
street crossing OF the Lake Shore road. AS
several OF the Pinkerton men were about
leaving for the city LOUIS SchOove passed
by. "That gun looks as il IL came IRON
pawn shop" said SchOove. The gun re-
ferred 10 was standing against a shanty
and az SchOOye spoke the m an who ham
died it seized IL and started after him.
SchoOve took refuge in an ice house. As he
disappeared the deputy fired at him. The
bullet took effect in the back Of SchOOve's
head and ranging upward inflicted a Sc
riOus wound. The wounded man then
took refuge beneath another build
ing. The deputy attempted 70
strike him with the end OF his
rife and succeeded In breaking the gun
stock. Schoove then jumDed through a
window and escaped. The Pinkerton
men refused 10 tell the name Of the man
lice, who failed TO connect anybody with
the affair. The present disturbances along
the Lake Shore road, 1t Is believed, are
the work OF Idle men and the rough ele-
ment around the stock yards. The strik-
ing switchmen have nearly all been en-
Joined in the courts from making any in
reference and they Themselves disclaim
all knowledge Of the troubles. Many Of
them, 1t is said, have gone TO work else
where.
