rs TT MORE REFORm4


Some inquisitive people are now trying to
find out how much of lift civil service re-
form gets by the change in the New York
custom house. Some who are, or ought to
be, well informed declare that the new col
lector, Daniel Magone, is not likely to be
great reformer. One of these says: Daniel
Magone is said to be a politician of the Ar
thur German and Eugene Higgins stripe.
whose selection means that the President has
determined to work the New York custom
house for all it is worth to him politically;
and, when it is remembered what tremen-
dous influence this machinery can exert, the
appointment has great significance. Collect
or Hedden was removed for alleged incom-
potency and violation of the civil service
law; but it is very singular fact that the
administration never took notice of Mr..
Hedden's shortcomings until after the death
of Boss Hubert o. Thompson, at whose in
stance Hedden was appointed. Thompson's
death removed one of the dependencies in
New York for a delegation to the next ma
tional convention and made the retention of
Hedden simply waste of influence and pa
tronage, and his head was therefore quickly
Topped OH TO make loom LOT cOllecCOr VINO
would be of some account.
Mr.. Magone was chairman of the New
York State Democratic committee some ten
years ago and had opportunity to learn
the arts of the Tilden school of politics.
Whether or not he will use any of those arts
now remains to be seen. A Tammany poll
tician says: There don't seem to me to be
any politics in giving this Office to Magone,
except it is that Cleveland intends to fight
Hill in the stronghold of the governor in the
upper part of the State. If this is SO then
Cleveland is taking care of Cleveland for
1888, and the mugwumps will be justified in
saying that the President has merely ex-
changed Thompsons man Hedden for Cleve-
lands man Magone, and that the custom
house will continue as a political headquar-
ters. If this is as 1 think it is, then Cleve-
land has woke up to the fact that Hill is very
strong for 1888, and that if Cleveland is to
take care of himself he must begin at once
to do it. think Cleveland has woke up tco

From the Bridgeport Standard
From the hysterical manner in which the
Democratic press of this State is denouncing
and insulting every man who has been
thought of in connection with the nomination
for governor on the Republican ticket, who
has been able to pay his board and keep out
OF the poorhouse. we may judge of the man
ner of man whom they will pick up for the
place themselves. If tramp poor enough
can be found, who will accept the nomina-
tion at their hands, and will fiaunt his rags
and his impecuniosity from the platform
for their benefit, he will be their man;
at least we draw that inference from their
talk which is@not only insulting to the COM
mon sense of their intelligent readers, but is
frenzied in its anxiety and alarm. The par
ty which is owned and controlled in this
State by the great political money boss, the
man who when he wants anything IN poll
tics buys it," the man who dictates the char
acter of their nominations and is in the field
now to manage and control their canvass and
campaign in his own well known style and
to his own ends, this party looks well de-
nounclng every man whose energy or indus
try has lifted him above the majority of his
fellows and whose success is the sufficient
guarantee of his merit. They, forsooth,
will go down and pick up beggar, and nom
mate him in order that they may retain the
votes of those whom they have been accus-
toned to boast that they Fown," but who
are now growing too intelligent and indie
pendent for that ownership. Perhaps they
will, but until they have done SO they will do
well to have less to say about the possession
of Hbank account" When their political
boss debauched politics in this State by in
Producing the methods which they now indi
rectly and causelessly ascribe to the Republi-
cans, he brought about such a state of af-
fairs that he himself subsequently said che
was compelled to buy his own voters" This
is the party which is bowling about "Repub-
lican money" and which insults the voters
of its own party with the aspersion that the
Republican nominee will buy their votes,
and that, conversely their votes are for
sale. Next to the self-satisfed assurance
with which these people assume to own the |
labor vote there is nothing more groundless |
and preposterous than their affectation of |
purity and poverty" and their "holier than |
thou" air with respect to the possible NOM
inees of the Republican party. This cry of |
@ stop thief" " from Democratic pickpockets |
is played out

NEW HAVEN, CONN, THURSDAY MORNING. AUGUST 1886
have been at his busiest The servants party
in the best dining room furnished another
thrilling scene

The San Francisco Bulletin calls attention
to the cheap lands of southern California
and invites half million more people to en-
ter and occupy. During the last ten years
immigration to that part of the State has en-
riohed it to the extent of more than twenty
millions of dollars, while the immigrants
have done we'll for themselves, acquiring
lands, planting orchards and vineyards, Sc
curing desirable homes, building up hand
some towns and villages and making south
ern California noted for it's citrus fruits.
Fruit husbandry has taken the place of cat
tie ranching, and intelligent farming has
reaped its reward out of the soil. Now that
the southern portion of the State is
doing SO we'll, the Bulletin calls attention to
the great advantages of the country lying
north of the Bay of San Francisco, where
are the great fruit districts. 1t expects that
large and fourishing towns will spring up
throughout the coast countries in that direc-
tion, that railroads will extend their lines
thither, and that an area of now undeveloped
country larger than the largest New En-
gland State will soon be settled. The pro-
duction of beef cattle, wool, butter and
cheese is already profitable in the northern
counties. but orchards and vineyards are

THE PRESIDENTS OF THE UNION.
Nearly All of Them Have Enjoyed
Their Country Homes.


President Cleveland has attracted good
deal of attention and comment in the last
few weeks by his sudden development of bu-
collie tastes, but in this he is only following
in the footsteps of nearly every occupant of
the presidential chair. Almost every Presi-
dent that this country has had, has passed
part of his career in the delights of coun-
try home. Washington, as everybody knows,
owned large estate at Mount Vernon, whore
he retired after his two terms in the presi-
deucy His death, it will be remembered,
was caused flom exposure incident to his du-
ties on the plantation, which he delighted to
manage in person. John Adams, his success
sor, retired after his term in the presidency
had expired to country seat, ''Quincy, y
near Boston, and engaged in agricultural
