age professional man to see how easily his
place can be filled. [Biddeford journal.
Not necessarily. The ''averago professional
man is probably aware that the world will
continue to move on when he steps down and
ont. But what is the matter with this Bidde-
ford man: Does he think the editors who
went to Bar IEarbor should have suspended
publication of their Irrespective sheets:" or
does he think they ought NOT to take few days
vacations or is it envy because he was not one
of the pleasant party at Bar Harbor last week?
If the latter is the true reason. the remedy is
easy. Join the association and become cone
of Us. The writer speaking for himself. can
say that he has found both the annual meetings
and the excursions of great benefit. and has
made many pleasant acquaintanees--w may
even say friends-since joining the association.
All the editors and publishers of Maine ought
to be enrolled in this organization and those
not now members may be assured Of Il hearty
welcome if they will present themselves at the
next annual meeting in January, 1857.

Offensive Partisans Rehuked.

The following executive order was issued by
the President July Il:
To THE HEADS OF DEPARTMENTS: | deem
this proper time to especially warn all subor-
climates in the several departments, and all office
holders under the general government, against
the use of their official positions in attempts to
control political movements iii their localities.
Office holders are the agents of the people, and
not their masters. a Just discrimination in this
regard between things which citizens may prop
rrly do and purposes for which public offices
should not be used is easy in the light of a cor
rect appreciation of the relation between the
people and those intruSted with official place.
and Il consideration of the necessity under our
form Of government of political action free from
official coercion. on are requested to com
municate the substance of these views to those
for whose guidance they are intended.
tSigned). GROVER CLEVELAND.
That such an order was called for there can
be 10 question. The Democratic Cincinnati
Enquirer said recently that at the first Demo-
cratic Congressional Convention held in Ohio
this year there We're present ''twenty flour fed
cral otlicc-holdcrs, conducting themselves as if
they and their offices were the personal prop
crty Of a Congressman seeking denominations"
There are numerous other illustrations of Of
fen>iye part>anship on the part of those hold
ing office under an Administration pledged to
civil service reform. Assistant Commissioner
of the General Land Office Stocksager was re-
effort to secure a nomination to Congress in
Indiana. United States District Attorney John
f.. Lamb is another Democratic official who
has not found his public duties an impeachment
to seeking IA Congressional nomination., and he
has gained the coveted prize. Mr.. Lamb and
Mr.. Stockslagcr have been, presumably, simply
indul ging ''thc quiet and unobtrusive exercise
Of individual political rights" In the convcn-
ton which nominated Mr.. Holman for Con-
grcSS Internal Revenue Collector w. ID. H.
Hunter sat on front seat and made the mo-
tons, and Indian Inspector +. d. Bannister
was his efficient lieutenant. This convention
was half made up of Federal otlice-holders and
there were five postmasters present rs dele
gates from single county: and at the Iowa
Democratic State Convention there We're pres
cnt every Revenue Collector i'll the State and
nearly all the deputies. the United States Mar
shall the United States District Attorney and
innHmcrable Po>tma>ters and other Federal
officers. The Presidents order is presumably

and III the other States where alleged offensive
parti>ans of the Republican faith have been
removed from Office to make room for the very
hungry and thirsty partisanS who voted for
Cleveland and reform.

A DEVICE OF LIQUOR nEAEkNe pEttArEn.

Congressman Dn@ley of Maine, a few DAYS
ago, called the attention Of Postmaster General
Villas to the abuse likely to arise-n fact al
ready panped by the liquor dealers-under the
new regulation admitting properly packed
liquids in the United States mails. Mr.. Ding
ley explained to Mr.. Villas that as the federal
laws protect mail matter against any nterfcr-
cnce under State laws, liquor dealers could
send packages of liquor by mail into prohibit
tory States, like Maine, and carry on the traffic
to any extent in spite Of State laws; result
which the Postmaster General did not contem-
plate. lie asked, therefore that the regulation
might be amended 50 a. to exclude into Xicating
liquors or mixtures from the mails. The post
