important business enterprises of thi'
company, which gives employ to 80 much
labor and sustains so honorable business
reputation. But Mr.. Blaine is not now
and never has been, the owner of stock il
the Bodwell Granite Company. nor inter
ested in any of its contracts. 1t is proper
also to add, that Mr.. Bodwell never had
occasion to solicit the assistance of Mr.
Blaine or any other senator or representa-
tive from Maine IN securing a contrac
from the Government. Mr.. Bodwel
never secured contract from the Gov
eminent. except in competition with othel
bidders in answer to public proposals, te
which every man had chance to bid.
As to the reflection, stated or implied
on the personal or business reputation OF
Jos. R. Bodwell, Esq. it needs no refuta-
ton in the extensive business circles where
he has been long we'll known. A hard
working and very able business man
alive to all the best interests of the com
munity in which he lives, he is equally
esteemed by those in his employ and those
to whom he sells the products of the Bod
well Granite Company. Whether doing
work for the gov eminent or for private in
dividuals and associations, his integrity
and commercial fidelity stand equally high
Had the Chicago newspapers cared to
know the truth, it would have learned
that Maine granite does not go only into
government buildings of the East, but
that the finest building in Chicago, and
one of the best IN The country, owned by
private association, is largely built OF
Hallowell granite and furnished by the
Bodwell Company. If the Argus has the
least desire to be the medium of truth and
Justice, and make amends for the publica-
ton Of an entirely baseless story prejudi-
cial to the business interests of the State,
it has good opportunity to do SO.

Practice vs.. Profession.

President Clevelands practice in regard
to appointments to Office has been so
VIGOROUSLY at variance with his profess
sions that the whole country has come to
understand it. His notable declarations Of
principle aid promises are regarded no
more than if he had never uttered them.
He is as completely subservient to the de-
mands of party as the most obstinate
Bourbon in the democratic ranks. The
mugwumps shout his praises but close
their ewes to the facts.
If the President had desired to improve
an excellent opportunity to show his adj
herence to the principles OF civil service
reform which he has declared should be
the rule by which his administration would
be guided. he had it in the case of General
Selden Common. who has just been super
seeded by Mr.. Anderson as pension agent
in this city. General Common was one of
the bravest of the brave in the army; was
terribly wounded in battle so that he long
laid at deaths door in consequence of his
injuries and was severely crippled for life
is a gentleman of unblemshed reputation
has been Governor of the State four years,
q position which he filled with high honor
to himself and the State; and was model
officer in the pension office which he lately
occupied. What more fitting thing could
President Cleveland have done than to re-
appoint such a man as pension agent
Even thorough going outspoken partisan
President would have hesitated before send
ing such an accomplished and deserving Of
fetal into retirement in order that one of his
own party should have the position But
our reform President does not hesitate
though the act stamps him rs false to his
professions in regard to appointments in
the civil service.
General Common did not ask to be reap.
pointed, nor does he complain becaus,
another person has been appointed pension
agent. We only call attention to the cas-,
that the public may rate President Ceve
lands professions as a reformer at thei
true value. Against Mr.. Anderson wht
has been appointed we have not one WORD
to say. He is a soldier and worthy mar
as far as we know anything OF him. Blu

Cleveland has in the way of civil service

The First Keen Twinge.

As the season advances, the pains and
aches BY which rheumatism makes itself
known, are experienced after every exposure.
1t is not claimed that Hoods Sarsaparilla is q
specific for rheumatism-we doubt if there is,
or can be, such a remedy. But the thousands
benefited by Hoods Sarsaparilla, warrant us
in urging others who suffer from rheumatism
to take it before the first keen twinge.

buildings. 1t would have been easy for

MAGNANIMITY IN man is one Of
those qualities which commands uni
versal respect and esteem, which
gives him power and influence, and
opens his way into public COZ fidence
anu place, and 1t may be remarked
1t IS no more true Of man than OF
party. In taking it's bearings for
future action this should be had in
view by the democracy OF Pope coun-
ty. Let her voice 10 the people be
pitched in unison with such policy.
The time fer the cussing out process,
if it ever had place here, is now
passed and gone, and the party that
controls and shapes public affairs
ought to be imbued with spirit that
would carry good will and kindly
feeling among the people. No party
can hope to succeed which discounts
any and oil opposition as rascally
aud corrupt, and all opponents as
rascals and liars. Brow beating and
denanciation is not the thing to win
from one to another. Ii you would
show your superiority let it be in
the excellence Of your positions and
not SC much in yehemenee. The
democratic party wants its gospel
clothed with the power which comes
in the bonds Of peace and good will
toward men. Unity in the ranks
and broad liberality 10 all party mat
tiers, will make the way easy to what
ever success we may come IN public
confidence and control. Nothing
else will.
The Russellville Democrat., 1886-04-01

The knights of Labor have many
lessons in prudence and discretion
yet to learn from their very sensible
and discreet general master work
man, Il. V. Powderly. The latest
edicrs from Mr.. Powderly are the
very essence of good sense, and in
striking contrast with the silly talk
and hasty acts of the knights. Mr..
Powderly gives the members II the
organization some excellent advice,
the most OF which is that they should
remember that the principles o. the
order arc not TO acquire power to be
used solely tor the purpose of strik
ing and endeavoring to force employ
ers 10 accsde to all their demands.
All Knights who imagine that con
centration OF power and bull doing
policy are the remedies for all wrongs
will do well to heed Mr.. Powderly's
words OF advice.
The Russellville Democrat., 1886-04-01

Nation has obtained certified copy
OF the decision of the United ST. .ss
Supreme Court in the litigation Be-
tween the Eastern and Western
Cherokees. The opinion is by Jus.
tice Field, aud is quite elaborate,
passing upon many points OF vital
interest to the Cherokees. Briefly
stated. this declaration from the
highest authority contirms the posi-.
tIon Of these Indians in all they have
claimed respecting their lands and
their rights. 1t declares that the
lands belong to them in fee simple,
and that the Nation has full control
over questions OF citizenship. Mat.
tiers in which this government has
hitherto interfered, such as theN-
cue of permits to live in the Nation,
are declared to come within the In
dependent direction Of the Indian
Council. Chief Bushyhead is much
eIated over the decision. He has
filed copy it with tue Commits
sioner Of Indian Affairs for the in
formation of the Interior Department,
and he has made arrangements to
call special session of the Council.
The date OF the meeting will prob
ably be about April 10. As the
chief construes the decision, the Ma
ton can now settle for itself all ques
tions of citizenship and resldstce
within its borders.
