Proved Too Much.

The Republican papers are citing the fact
that but seventeen out of more than twenty
four hundred nominations by President Cleve-
land have been rejected by Republican
Senate, in order to prove that that body is
acting only for the public good and not in
any partisan spirit toward the new Admins
tration; and make note of the further fact that
MANY more of President Arthur S nominations
were rejected. This does not prove what is
intended to be shown; the rather, that Presl-
dent Cleveland's nominees were so good and
capable, no excuse could be found for their
rejection. A Republican Senate would not
embarrass Republican President, and the
fact that any of Mr.. Arthur's nominees were
turned down, is proof ofthe fact that those re-
iected must have been VIGOROUSLY unfit. The
The Senate has been ready at all times to
embarrass and throw obstacles in the way OF
the Democratic Administration, and because
it has done but little in that line is high
compliment to Mr.. Cleveland and his Cabinet.
The Republican journals have proved too
much.

On the New York Star proposition to unite
New York, Brooklyn, Long Island City, As
toria, New Lots, East New York, Yonkers,
and all the adjacent towns in Westchester,
Queens, and Richmond counties, into one
grand aggregation to be named Manhattan,
we vote nayl The city would have apopula-
ton of over three millions. and would be I'M
wieldy in its municipal affairs. Then think
of its possibilities in producing more Boss
Tweeds, Jay Goulds, Jim Fsks, Ferdinand
Wards, and Jake Sharps. Also of the pro-
liabilities of its again attempting to tamper
with Presidential election returns. No, no,
New York is bad enough as it is. Besides,
there is much truth in Mr.. Jefferson's opin-
ion, that ga great city is great sore." We
don't want to see so huge carbuncle on the
body polite as Manhattan would be.

In both the League and American Associa-
ton last season the pennants were taken by
Western clubs. This year Western clubs
have the lead, and there is no probability that
any Eastern club can catch up. St. Louis is
far ahead in the Association race, and another
Western club stands second. Detroits leads
in the League, with Chicago second. The
Eastern Association clubs have been in the
West for several weeks, and not one has won
more than two out of five games. On Tues
day and Wednesday of leach week every East
ern club was defeated. Barnie's Orioles still
hold on to the last place. and have no COM
petitors all the other clubs being far ahead.
Kilroy has had some of the phenomenal
knocked out of him on this Western tour.

Gov. LLOYD has appointed ex-Gov. VIM. L.

On Thursday afternoon James Williams and
Harmon Dohrman, two Baltimore and OHIO
track hands, were at work on the road near
Patterson's creek, Allegany county, Nd,
when thunderstorm came up. They took
refuge under clump of pines about fifty yards
distant, and in few moments both were
knocked senseless by lightning. The bolt
burned hole through Williams hat and
passed down his face, neck and body, burning
him badly His suspendef- buckles were
melted and part of his watch-case. He re-
covered from the shock in half an hour and
is considered out of danger. He lives at
North Branch, is fifty years old and has a
family. Dohrman, who lives near Patterson
creek, is aged forty-fve and has family.
He is the worse hurt and may die. He bears
no marks, but complains greatly of pain in the
arms and back and blood issued from the ear,
which afforded suspicion of skull fracture.
He was semi-unconscious for a long time after
the accident.
A severe wind and rain storm passed over
Baltimore, Nd, on Thursday night, unrooing
and damaging eighty houses in various parts
of the city.
A dispatch from Raleigh, North Carolina,
on Wednesday, says: Rains in nearly all parts
of North Carolina continue, as they have for
over a month past The damage is in many
cases irreparable. West of the Blue Ridge
rain has fallen for six weeks or more. The
news from Fender county is that for fort
night past constant rains have so swollen the
streams as to food great tracts of country.
1t is the greatest food since 1867. Farmers
on the Cape Fear river have lost oil their
crops, and many have been forced to leave
their homes on account of the flood. Many
turpentine distilleries are under water, and
stores and dwellings are deserted. All the
lowland crops in the State are injured, and
only in few sections on stiff uplands is there
much prospect of any sort Of crops. The
damage in many sections is well nigh total,
and in others from one-quarter TO one-half.

The Civil Service Law "must go.h No
measure so odious has encountered the statute
books for some years. 1t is undemocratic,
unconstitutional, unjust and oppressive. A
law that requires competitive examination for
appointment is the only one the people of this
government will stand. The present law
closes the door to men of a certain age, thus
Furnishing them, not for "growing old" as
Congressman Shaw expressed it, but for adj
vancing to middle age-the period OF the
best mental and physical activity-the age OF
discretion and judgment. 1t also is calculated
to cause the outcasts, flor men excluded from
public positions are nothing less) TO lose an
interest in public affairs and to become indif-
ferent as to the welfare of the government.

Hon. Frank T. shaw's Prospect,

The Washington correspondent of the
Baltimore Sun, wrote to that paper on Mon
day last as follows:
Representative Shaw has recovered from
his recent illness, and has resumed his con-
gressional duties. He received a cordial
welcome back to the House to-day, and cele-
brated his return by presenting several petit
tons from labor Organizations in Baltimore
county, including Mount Washington, and at
Belair. Referring to his prospects of being
renominated for Congress, Mr.. Shaw says the
outlook is encouraging, although he has
given the subject but little attention during
his illness. He is not the least disturbed by
the boasts of rival candidates, he said, and
when the proper time arrives he will lay his
claims for re election before his constituents,
and submit gracefully to their decision.
Persons who assume to be familiar with the
political situation in the second congressional
district predict Mr.. Shaw's reelection, not
withstanding the candidacy of others who
have been named. Mr.. Shaw has Carroll
and Hartford counties to start with, and Cecil
county is debatable territory, while Mr.. Tai
bolt probably has Baltimore county at his
back. Maryland politicians generally agree
that Talbot is making a strong fight, but
still they think he will not succeed in getting
the nomination away from Shaw"

The Maryland Legislature discussed the
proposition to reduce the4nhrriage license fee
for two sessions before the reduction was
made. 1t was contended that the former rate
of $3.50 was too high, an injustice and an
obstruction to married bliss. The law max
ing the reduction went into effect on June list,
and reports from various counties show that
there has been no rush for married licenses
in fact no more than usual have been issued
This indicates that the reduction is no in
ducement, and the former rate was no hind
rance, while the state will lose upwards of
$40, 900 revenue annually.

The Civil Service Commission last week
made report on the statement of Commissioner
LYMAN ON the conduct of 1. Parker Veazey
while postmaster of Baltimore, in which
ground is taken that Mr.. Veazey violated the
spirit and letter of the civilservice law in
making removals and appointments. If the
Commission have faith in their conclusions
they should prosecute Mr.. Veazey. This is
what he challenged them to do. Perhaps,
however, the report was made only for general
purposes, and is intended to brighten officers
of the government into retaining Republicans
in office

George l.. Wellington, of Cumberland, is
candidate for the Republican nomination for
Congress in the sixth district, now represent
ed by Mr.. McComas. He is making a per-
sonal canvass, and thinks he will carry his
own county, Allegany, has fair chance in
Montgomery, and is now looking up support
the district. Col. L. Victor Baughman, of
Frederick, would make a strong candidate,
and no doubt would be successful in defeat
ing any one the Republicans put up.

President Cleveland is vetoing every bill,
pension or otherwise, that seems to him makes
unwarranted drains on the public treasury.
His conscientious regard of his oath of Office
constrains him to withhold his sanction to acts

honored for sinking self and regarding his
position as public trust to be administered
