NONEMHER-'SS.

NOvEMBER-'SS.
IIark! that glad rejoicing
Sounds DER and DER again,
From every plain and hillside,
From Oregon to Maine.
1t comes from rushing river;
From teening town and mart;
From ocean unto ocean;
From our great Country's heart.
1t is the voice of FREEDOM
Uplifted into song,
Ringing aloud her pecan,
In measures glad and long;
For Victory has guided
Her onWard-pressi ranks;
ProtectiOn's cause has triumphcd;
She gives the PEOPLE thanks.
VICTORY,
Though dashing free trade breakers
Beat high upon the shore,
And Democratic ledge rock
Made channel waters roar,
The staunch old ship Republican
Has grandly ridden through
And brought unto the White House
Our brave young T1ppecanoe."
No more of pension vetoes,
Free trade, or basely planned
JnquaH1led surrender
To Canadian demand.
Give cheers for gallant Harrison,
And cheers for stalwart Blaine,
Grand champions of protection
Great leaders in her train.
And thank them for this victory
Ger traitOr0us foes Of Old
Whose weapons In this conflict
Were fraud and use of gold.

Reform the Mail Service.

When Postmaster General Villas assumed the
ton. under date of March 81, 1885, that he
would not impair the efficiency of the railway
mail service by making political removals so
long as the clerks attended faithfully to their
duties and did not NEEDLE with politics. Be-
fore the ink with which this notice was writ
ten was fairly dry the reform Postmaster Cen
eral began to make removals by wholesale, to
the great detriment of the mail service estab-
lished for the benefit of the whole people.
These removals continued until most Of the
experienced employees in the railway mail SER
vice had been removed and their places filled
by new men. The result has been to impair
the efficiency of the service ali over the coun-
try. to the detrment of business men and the
Inconvenience of everybody. This is not
political matter, and if there is any branch of
the government in which civil service rules
should be observed it is the mail service. It
should therefore he the first duty of the in
coming Administration to restore the railway
mail service to its former efficiency by rein
stating the expert clerks dismissed by Z. NJ.
q. ilas. in their former positions, or by pro-
noting them to such positions as they are
qualified to ill. Where new men are required

MIR. Oates Gathers Some Ideas
From the Recent Congressional
investigation.

Mr.. Oates Gathers Some Ideas
From the Recent Congressional
Investigation.
Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 4.-Representa-
tive Oates, of Alabama, member of the
committee investigating Italian immi-
grafton, has returned to Washington
during the recess of the committee.
From the facts already eliclted Mr..
Oates has drawn some conclusions. He
says that he favOrS legislation to restrict
immigration by imposing tax of $500
on every immigrant, whether he comes
from Italy or any other country. He
would also place more safeguards
around American citizenship. While
he would not 90 so far as Mayor Hewitt
in demanding twenty-one years
residence in this country. he
would certainly Giake it much lsuger
than five years; he would make
it an absolute necessity that the appli-
cant should be able to read and write
the English language, and he would put
tn clause about the good moral charac-
ter in practical operation. He is also
of the opinion that it will be necessary
to make it entirely federal institution,
governed by such laws as will make it
possible to hold the officials to strict
Responsibility.

FORGERIEs DISCOVERED.
Crooked Work Pcrpetrated by a
Young Detroit Swell.


DETROIT, Mich, Aug. An attorney
of this city, while looking up records in
the register of deeds office, noticed a
mortgage of $4,000, given by Edmund
f. KearSley, formerly of this city, but
now of Bucyrus, o., to Mrs. Nellie
Avery, Of Chicago. Knowing that Mr..
kearsley is wealthy-he is said to lie
worth about half millon-he reported
the matter to Hon. ID. Bethune Duffield,
who has charge of Mr.. KearSley'S inter-
ests in this city. Investigation re-
Vealed that more mortgages were
recorded, purporting to have been
given by Mr.. Kearsley, one of
$4,000 to the Wayne County Savings
bank, and one Of $4,000 to the Detroit
Savings bank, the latter marked as dis
charged. Mr.. Duffield at once tele-
graphed to Mr.. Kearsley, who wired
back that his signature to those mort
cages were forgeries. Further investl-
CATION showed that Howard w. Sterling.
a nephew of Mr.. Kearsley, had obtained
the money on those mortgages. 1t was
also found that Sterling had obtained
$3.50 from the Detroit Savings bank
and $1,000 from. the Wayne County
Savings bank on notes which pur-
port to have been signed by Mr.. Kears-
ley. Both banks will commence GRIM
lnal proceedings against Sterling at
once. The latter is at present at his
summer residence on Crosse Isle, in De-
troit river. He is about twenty-five
years old and married only eighteen
months. Formerly he was in the insur-
ance business i'll partnership with Mr..
Smalley. under the firm name of SmalIey
& Sterling, which firm has been dis
solved, Sterling remaining in the busi-
ness. He is known to have extravagant
habits and is considered quite swell.
Howard w. Sterling has not been seen
since Thursday, and it is stated that he
has skipped.
