Mr.. cleyelsnd,s Broken Promises.

The Presidents record for Civil-Service
reform Is likely to be heard from good
many thimes before election. 1t Is such
conspicuous instance of broken promises
and unfulflled pledges that it is worthy OF
all the attention it has received. Not long
ago the Union League Club, of New York,
discussed this subject and arraigned the
Administration very sharply from tho
standpoint Of publicists and rcformers.
The report Of the committee of the league
that was especially to consider this record,
called attention to the fact that in 1884 the
mugwumps were allured by the impression
which Democratic candidates, including
Mr.. Cleveland, encouraged, that he was q
born reformer, raised up for the purpose Of
completing this great work Attention Is
called to the facts that most emphatically
discredit and disprove all the claims and
promises that were made for him then.
Oflcial figures show that when the last
count of Presidential Offices was made Mr.
Cleveland had changed nearly every one
save those in fcw instances which COM
manded 80 small q salary that the place was
not deemed worth the trouble of O change.
OF eighty-five collectors Of internal rev.
enue eighty-four have been changed, and Of
the one hundred and eleven collectors of
customs all but eleven are filled by new OFF,
GERS. In every instance tho removals have
been made and the change been brought
about for partisan purposes, under the pre-
text or subterfuge OF reform. Lately no
attempt has been made to disguise the ac-
tion of the Administration, but its removals
have notoriously been made in order to pro-
vide places for Democrats as rewards for
services past or rs inducements for services
yet to come. The report Of the committee
concludes with this resolution:
"That the course of the President has
been radically inconsistent with the pledges
which he gave before his election and in his
inaugural address in respect to this reform
and the disposition which he manifested in
the case Of Stone and Benton and in many
others gives color to the charge Of insincer'
ity, partisan bias and lack Of genuine gym,
pathy with the spirit Of reform"
Thus passes the glory of sham REFORM

date for the Presidency, and are boasting
of giving him 10000 votes in Ohio--which
would be In support of Democratic fraud

and they would wipe out township option,

try to account for the demoralization OF
Washington society, that no one who lives
in Washington or visits it can fail to hear
and can hardly, however charitably in

about most and chiefly by Democrats.
Yet with, at very low estimate, ten thou

most certain, to DO nominated BY acclama-

This is, says the Cincinnati CommercidtGa-

this article to crticise Cleveland or his Ad-
ministration but 1t Ia safe to say that II all

party, and give it strength and force, should
vote and act according to their honest con-
victions, Cleveland could not carry TWO

This being true-and it unqucstionaoly IS
true-it can safely bo said that the political
history OF the Uuited States fals TO present
such an exhibition Of cowardice as that
which Is now being made. Inero Is great
deal of boldness in private talk between
confidential friends, but when 1t comes 10
public expressions, mum is the word.
We asked prominent Democrat, who
agrees fully to the proposition we have pre-
sented, If he could account for it, He said !:
"Only in one way. Cleveland is the first
Democratic President since the war. He
has been satisfactory to the South, and tho
South we must have solid; therefore we
swallow our disgust and keep still" And
this is about the amount of it. Any thing
TO retain power, even Cleveland.
The price is a pretty heavy one. But even
with the solid South to start with, it may
prove losing bargain. 1t certainly will un-
less Republican managers make fools of
themselves. Republicans are liable to be

advantage, for they can moro easily over

BLACKED HIS EYES.
A Dispute Over a Position Causes
Fight.

A few weeks ago David Markstein,
representing a New York banking
house came to st. Paul and opened an
Office for the sale of European bonds.
He soon built up a good business and
was doing well. Two weeks ago Ludwig
Schonberger, claiming to represent the
same firm, arrived in st. Paul. What
he actually did is only known to himself,
but Markstein claimed that SchOnberger
was trying to get him out of his posi-
ton. A letter from the firm suggested
this idea to Mr.. Markstein and the fol-
lowing day the latter received teIe-
gram notifying him that his services
were no longer required. MaIkstein
blamed Schonberger for the result, and
Monday when the two met in the
Brunswick hotel words were inter-
changed on the subject. SchOnberger
called Markstein a lior and a fight en-
sued, during which Schollberger was
given a pair of black eyes. He sought
redress at laW,and yesterday Markstein
was arraigned in the municipal court.
After the court had heard the testimony
the case was dismissed.
