REFORM IN PHILADELPHIA.

The Philadelphia postofice under the man
agement of Postmaster Harrity furnishes a
good sample of the kind of reform the coun-
try is getting under this reform administra-
ton. Harrity entered the office with loud
proclamation of his intention to reconstruct
the service in all its ramifcations. and make
it model which Mugwumps could contem-
plate with deep satisfaction. Recently a
board OF examiners have been investigating
the office, and their report, though evidently
withdrawing one, contains enough criticism
to show that Harrity has fallen far short of
his lofty aspirations. But former clerk who
is thoroughly familiar with the Office as it is
run by Harrity and as it was run by the Re-
publican postmaster whom Harrity SUPPRESSED
ed, in letter to the Philadelphia North
American, gives the public glimpse of the
interior workings of the institution. and sup
plies great many facts which the board of
examiners either failed to discover or ne
elected to state. Under the former post
master the assistant postmaster performed
not only the duties of his own posi-
ton, but also acted as cash err at
salary of $500 per annup. Under
Harrity it takes three men do the

PROHIBITION IN RHODE ISLAND.

The Providence Journal has completed
careful examination of the workings and re-
suits of the prohibitory law for the first three
months of its enforcement in Rhode Island.
Returns have been received from the cities,
villages and towns, and from these returns
the Journal concludes:
Among the good effects are to be reckoned the
closing of the open doors OF the saloons with theft
temptations to the young and thoughtless, the
diminution of offence and danger in the number
of intoxicated persons in the streets. Further
more it is the almost unanimous report that the
tin bucket brigade" the wretched spectacle of
little children bringing home supplies from beer
shops has been banished, and this alone would
be most gratifying reform. 10 these are TO pc
added the reduced number of arrests and punish
ments in the courts for drunkenness and cognate
offences.
With these good results there have been
created also large number of secret resorts
for drinking, both of fashionable '"clubs"
and low bar-rooms. In these places the
Journal thinks that the drinking is undOubt-
eddy worse than formerly in the open sa-
looms, for the reason mot only that it adds
the Generalization of conscious violation of
law, but that it is also apt to be prolonged
and intensified ty various influences. But
the reports tend to show that there is less
drinking than before the law went into eff
feet, because temptation and the ready means
of indulgence are removed On the other
hand there is room for belief that what
drinking is done is more injurious
Of course three months is a very short time
for a trial of such an important measure as
prohibitory law. The consumptiye might
as well hope to know in three days how a
certain regime prescribed by his physi-
clan would result, as the people of Rhode
Island to predict from these three months
the final result of the new law But if the
consumptive observes at the end of three
days certain symptoms which in other cases
have heralded better health he has good rea-
son for encouragement. 1t cannot be ex-
pected that any great reform will be effected
in the habits of people in three months by
any law But the reports from Rhode Island
show that the great advantage which the
friends of prohibition claim for their method
is resulting. The community is relieved of
the nuisances of the dram shop, its open
tippling and perpetual enticements. The
HARM which is alleged to exist in Sc
cret and deeper drinking, is visited on the
drunkard himself who frequents the low re-
sorts which. as yet, the officers of the law
are unable to suppress.

aggregate salary of $7,100, or $4,000 more
than was paid for the same work under the
Republican postmaster. In the registry de-
partment practically the same kind of reform
has been introduced. The superintendent
who formerly supervised all the work has
been reduced to assistant superintendent, an
office never before known, and Democrat
appointed superintendent. The Republican
does all the work as of yore, but the Demo-
crat draws large part of the salary I'm
der the Republican postmaster clerks when
they first entered the office were paid small
salary, and as they gained proficiency their
salary was increased. Harrity has changed
all this Now the greenhorn gets as much
as the experienced hand, though the actual
value of his work is not half as much. Har-
rity has introduced so many new men with
out knowledge of the business into the office
that the work is greatly impeded, and blum
dering is the order of the day. The
office used to be a model, but under
the reform postmaster it has degenerated in
to one of the worst managed offices in the
country.

do so when difficult theological questions
arise. What constitutes difficult case is
left entirely for the committee to decide, and

The negotiations between Tammany and

for mayor have so far come to naught, though
they are not yet ended. The County Democ-
racy are inclined to insist on either Edward
Cooper or Mayor Grace, but Tammany will
consent to neither Of them without pledges
that are not forthcoming. Tammany has
submitted six names, but they are all objec-
tionable to the County Democracy. Mean
while Col. Lamont, Secretary Manning, Sec
Rotary Whitney and Gov. Hill are working
like beavers to bring about union, in spite
of the fine words of the President about Off
cial influence in politics, and the country

The news that the Anchoria is safe at st.
Johns, Newfoundland, will be welcome
news to many people in this country who
had friends or relatives among the four hun
dred belated passengers That the steamer,
bound over the ocean highway frequented
by so many vessels. should have been out
twenty-five days and yet be seen by none of
the steamers constantly passing between
Europe and America, is remarkable and JUS
titled all the alarm that was felt. Saturday,
no less than six transatlantic steamers ar
rived at New York, but none of them
brought word of the missing Anchoria.
For two weeks before Observation-Disclosures
had told the same story. But such delays
though unusual, have happened several
times. In 1877 the City of Brussels was out
twenty-nine days without being spoken once.
Others have disappeared as mysteriously to
be heard from at places far out of their
course When the machinery is working
well the passenger ON one of these large
steamers is almost certain of a swift and
comfortable journey but when sails alone
are to be depended upon the floating palace
becomes little better than drifting palace.
