President Cleveland has said tina
certain officials should not, in his opin-
ion, be removed during the continu-
ance OF the term for which they were
appointed, solely for the purpose Of
putting in their places those in polit
ical afiliation with the appointing
power, and every pledge which he
has made BY which he has placed q
limitation upon the exercise Of exec
utiye power has been faithfully re-
deemed, and while he does not put
forth the pretense that no mistakes
have been committed, not suspen-
sion has been made except it appear
ed to his satisfaction that the public
welfare would be improved thereby.
His pledges were made to the people,
and to them he is responsible for the
manner in which they have been re-
deemed. His message to the Senate
closes as follows: ssrhere are no
grounds for the allegation that fear
OF being found false to my professions
Influences me in declining to submit
to the demands Of the Senate. | have
constantly refused to suspend officials,
and thus incurred the displeasure of
political friends, nor yet willfully
broke faith with the people for the
sake OF being false to them. Neither
the discomfort of party friends, nor
the allurements constantly offered Of
the confirmation Of appointees, con-
ditioned upon the avowal that the
suspensions have been made on party
grounds alone, nor the threat propos-
ed in the resolutions now before the
Senate, that no combinations will be
made unless the demands Of that body
be complied with, are sufficient to dis
courage or deter me from following
in the way which | am convinced
leads to better government for the
people"

ing outlook for the present year on
Wood River is much better than ev.
er before, A larger number of mines
and prospects are working now than
during any previous winter, and the
reports from every section Of the
country are very fattering. The fear
that the ore is at or near the surface
Is no longer entertained. The Queen
OF the Hills, at Broadford, is larger
and richer at the depth of seven hun
dred and fifty feet than at any point
above, and at Bullion, Smoky and

successful in every instance, mine
owners have confidence, and the pres

camps passed through the same cri-

FOLLlEs PRESENT AND PAST.

To him who suffers himself to be
disheartened by occasional aberra-
tons of intellect among the men of
the present day, it is consolng to
look back at the past and to note the
decisions which mastered the minds
of our fathers. AT the close of the
revolutionary struggle the American
intellect was thoroughly roused War
is famous educator. A century ago
the United States contained statesmen
and philosophers equal in depth of
thought and clearness of mind to any
now living; yet when we read the
chronicles of that Cay we are amazed
that people which had produced
such men, which had just achieved its
independence and had created so
immortal work as the American
system of polity, should simulta-
-neously have cherished fallacies of
which our most ignorant communities
would be ashamed.
There was among our ancestors an
odd mixture of piety and brutality.
The man who counterfeited a bank
note had piece clipped out of his
ear and was branded on the forehead;
a necessary witness was jailed in a
dungeon, often without light, without
bed, without any means of washing,
with insufficient food, with no medi-
cal attendance and no separation of
the sexes, or of the utterly depraved
criminal from the unfortunate debtor
Yet the generation which saw nothing
wrong in this would not attend play
unless it was billed as 'moral lect-
ure in four acts" and wise men pre-
dicted that the glorious fabric the
men of America had reared would be
undermined by a set of British play
ers. They were SO intolerant, these
ancestors of ours, that they insisted
on the exile of all Tories that is,
persons who had not sympathized
with the revolution, and in many pla
ces this was done. An Act would
have passed the Legislature of New
York exiting them IN body but for
the discovery that its execution
would have depopulated certain villa
ges. At the South most of the Tories
were expelled, and few who return
ed to look after their property were
put to death. To the men Of 1888

Of the work are Messrs. James M.
Steward and James A. MCGEE. After
looking the sage brush lands over be-
tween BOISE and Snake rivers they hit
upon the Government Island two
miles below Boise City as the most
feasible place to take the water from
Boise river. This would cover all the
country lying between the two rivers,
a distance of thirty miles in length
and ten miles in width. 1t would

many States an ex-soldier who joined
it forfeited his citizenship. There
was SO little fellowship among the
people Of the various States that
Characterization in Wyoming, Pa,
we're driven out by The Pennsylvania
militia at the point Of the bayonet.
Financial theories were SO crude
that seven out of the thirteen States
passed Acts for issues Of irredeemable
paper money, which we're to tighten
taxation and make trade flourish. At
Charleston q Committee Of the people
sacked the houses Of merchants who
refused to sell except for gold and
silver. In other places hard money
men were mobbed and jailed. In
several States 1t was declared to be a
misdemeanor to demand premium
for coin. In Rhode Island an Act
was passed forbidding citizens to vote,
lawyers to practice, candidates to run
for office till they had sworn before a
magistrate that the new paper was as
good as gold. Of course these
measures produced general distress.
The people ascribed it to everything
but the true cause. Mobs paraded
the cities shouting; "More paper
money! Equal distribution Of prop
erty! Annihilate our debts!" They
attacked class after class as being the
authors Of their troubles. Now it
was the merchants who were mobbed
for exporting coin in payment OF their
goods; now it was lawyers who came
in for the wrath of the people.
When the National Convention met
ION May 20, 1881 to frame the Con-
stitution. a large portion of the people
were for monarchy. The second
son Of George III was to be King,
and he was to be surrounded bv a
court and titled nobility. This no.
ton was quite popular in Connecticut.
In the convention the great States
refused to confederate on All equality
with the smaller States. Pennsyl.
vania utterly refused to enter the
Union on an equality with New Jer-
sey. When Congress adopted the
Constitution nineteen members sece-
ded. The Constitution was reviled
as a "triple- headed MONSTER" "gild-
ed trap" "device against the liber-
ties of free people," At Albany it
was burned in a public square and per-
sons suspected Of being it's friends
were stoned. Two States, Rhode
Island and North Carolina, were only
induced to ratify after two years de-
lay. Even after Congress met, after
the ratification, public discomfort
was not soothed. The idea of men,
bers of Congress voting themselves
six shillings a day, in order that they
might drink fine wines, was denounc-
ed as Infamous, and as to the vote
giving the Speaker, who never sits on
committee, twelve shillings day,
it was monstrous.
1t does me good to read these rec
orls of bygone follies, and it teaches
