BosToN, Jan. 3l.-The Herald'
Washington correspondent quotes the
President as saying: 81 have tried t.
be true to my pledges and the pledges Of
my party. We both promised to divorce
the Office of the G, untry from being used
for party service. I have held to my
promise. and mean to- hold to it. did
not propose to hold party service in the
past in the Democratic ranks, as against
the man. On the contrary. it gave him
a strong equitable claim to Office, lie
had been excluded for twenty-four years,
because he was a Democrat. He should
be remembered for the same reason when
the Demo cratic administration came into
power, provided he was competent man
for the position he filed. What l un-
derstand by civil service reform, as am
carrying it out, is that Office holders
shall be divorced from politics while they
gil their positions under this government.
That rule l have meant to stand by 10
my removals from Office. Such as are
made are made for cause. II would be
abcure for me to undertake to give the
country my reasons in all cases, because
it would be impracticable. When have
removed Republican FIR political rea-
sons | would apply the same rnle to my
own party. l think Republican Senators
should be just enough to believe this of
me. They ought to appreciate that l
am trying to do my duty. Why they
should continue to distrust me do not
see. They do not come to me either
personally or by communication to get
an understanding of my attitude, or OBJ
tain explanations on points of action to
which they object. They stand oil and
question the sincerity Of my purpose.

JUDoE DEADY ON PUBLIC
SCHOOLS,
PORTLAND, Feb. 8, 1886.

~ AnU 1DAAVn Vt AAL onEuoNlAN'
The Standard Of last evening, in ,
criticism paragraph in my library re
port concerning library dues, goes out Of
its way to say that: "For the same rea
con, as We understand, Judge Deadly i.
opposed to free public schools"
The editor Of the Standard has Q
singular faculty Of being mistaken when.
sver he honors me, as he does sometimes
with notice Of my opinion or conduct
don't want to think his errors are will.
full; but it seems strange that anyone
should make such an unqualified state
nent in this community, where my
opinions on the subject of education are
% well known.
In 1882 l had the honor to deliver
the address to the graduating class of the
High school for that year, a copy Of
which may be found in the report of the
superintendent.
cannot better refute the statement of
the Standard than quoting few para
graphs from pages % and "A.
ut Is the undoubted right and duty
of the state to make provision SO that
every child in the community, and par
ticularly the poor and helpless, shall re.
ceive sufficient education to enable it to
become useful member Of society. In.
been, it may probably go farther and
take means to prevent its receiving such
an education as manifestly will have the
effect to make it bad, dangerous or USE
less member Of society. But it is need
len to add that this power should be
exercised with great caution.
To supplement the action or want Of
action on the part Of the parent or in
dividual, it seems only necessary that
the state should provide schools where
svery child who will, or is required to
attend, may, between the ages Of six
and sixtees, obtain without charge or
condition, . good English education.
Beyond this | do not think the obliga.
ton Of the state as to shook learning,
extends. Thereafter, in the great ma.
iority Of instances, the most urgent need
Of the youth is that he may have the op-
portunity to acquire some craft or calling
By which he may make an honest living.
And whatever differences Of opinion
may exist on this point, ii seem clear that
Il the state undertakes to furnish an edu-
'sation beyond what is necessary for all,
nd which may generally be acquired by
the sixteenth year, it ought to be so with
some reference to the law of supply and
demand. 1t is certainly unwise to edu.
cate At the public expence majority, or
any considerable number of a genera
ton, for few intellectual, unproduc,ive
pursuits.
But, whatever is done by the state for
education, ought to be well done. The
superintendent, teachers, houses, books
aud methods, in all essentials, ought to
be second to none. A parsimonious or {
policy in any ofthcse respects
q worse than q nistak i, il n crime
Tho previous years of youth, devoted to I
'chool going, ought not to be lost or
vasted tor want Of efficient means in the q
chool-room to make them as profitable '

Died at the Hospital.

Yesterday morning an old lady by
the name of Mary Gruin died at the
city hospital. She has been an inmate
of this institution for several months
Prior to her going there she was cared
for by several charitable people of the
city. She has lived in the city several
years, but who were her earlier-day
friends no one seems to know. The
day before her death she walked from
the hospital to the end of the Main
street car line to deliver letter for a
friend to another party. Wednesday
night she was taken with a congestive
chill and died Thursday morning and
was buried in the evening. The ladies
who had formerly cared for her took
up collection and paid the expenses
Of the funeral.

The Domestic Doctor.

Honey and -four made into a salve
is an excellent remedy for boils.
A little soda water will relieve
sick headache caused by Indigestion.
A hot, strong lemonade taken at
bedtime will break up bad cold.
A pinch of snuff large enough to
produce good sneeze will cure hic-
cough.
Consumptive night sweats may be
prevented by sponging the body
nightly in salt water.
A poultice of salt and the white
of an egg is powerful resolvent,
and, if applied in time, will dispense
felon.
1t may be news to some persons
that persistent rubbing with oil night
and morning will remove scars.
Olive oil will answer, but neatsfoot
oil is rather more rapid in its effects.
In the case of burns, when the ten
dons are stiff and contracted, rubbing
with oil will render the part affect
ed almost as supple as before the
Injury.
A graduated glass to measure
fluids can be purchased for about
twenty-five cents, and one should al
ways be used, as exactness is OF
great Importance. The size ofspoons
differs so greatly that the teaspoon
in use in one household will hold as
much as the dessertspoon in another
and it is not safe to trust to auch n
varying quantity in measurement.
When medicine is to be giveni in drops
dropper will be useful to secure
uniformity in the doses. 1t is some
times difficult to get the drops to
fall regularly over the edge Of the
bottle, too much Of the contents
comes out at once, and has to be
wasted if it is being dropped into
water. This can be avoided by first
moistening the edge, or by holding
the cork SO that the drops will run
over it. When person is very ill,
the covered spoons sold for the pur
pose are very convenient for giving
medicine,--it can be put in the mouth
without raising the head from the
pillow. A few drops of ammonia
will effectually cleanse glass that
has.contained oil, and ALCOHOLICS equal
ly good for the purpose if it is at
hand. The utensils used in giving
medicine should be carefully washed
and dried after each dose.--ElizG-

Bold Robbers.

A few nights ago three would-be
robbers forced an entrance to Il Q
residence Of Mr.. John A. Hoover, in
Ringgold district, this county, by
breaking open a kitchen window.
Proceeding to Mr.. Hoover's bed
chamber, they found that gentleman
asleep on a lounge. He was awaken
ed BY the noise, and when about to
get up, was told to lie still or he
would be killed. He reached for his
revolver. which lay on a shelf above
him, and as he did this, the intrud-
ers shot at him, but fortunately the
ball went wide Of the mark. One Of
the robbers then said, "Let us go,
boys, or he will shoot us 1t is
said Mr.. Hoover recognized the voice
and knows the men. In their fight
they left all the doors OF the house
open and the four gates in the yard.
Mr.. Hoover had been paid some
money that day, and it is supposed
the men who made the attempt at
robbery were acquainted with this
fact.--Hdgersfoaon Globe bas3 So Z
