WASHINGTON, May 9.-The Attorney.
General to-day appointed Frank A. Brani'
gan, OF Steubenviiie, OHIO. to be discussing
and appointment clerk al the Department OF
Justice rice james w. Ewing, removed.
Mr.. Braulgan Is at present an $500 clerk In
the Sixth Auditors Office, and was recon-
mended rs a suitable man for his new duties
by misunderstanding Thompson, OF the
Treasury Department. The office Is in the
classified service, and could be filled only by
promotion from the next lower grade. The
salary Is @, 900 per annum.
The Secretary Of the Treasury, who has
jurisdiction In the matter. has fixed the bond
OF the new appointee at $4,000, or $4,000
more than that OF the late incumbent. Mr..
Branigan will assume the duties OF his new
Office rs soon a. his bond shall have been APP
proved. probabiy tomorrow.
The investigation intO Ewlng's accounts Is
closed 20 far rs the Department OF Justice Is
concerned. The examination OF his accounts
at the Treasury Department will occupy two
or three weeks more. and until that is finish
ed their precise condition cannot be stated.
From the best information 0btainable, how
ever, It is thought that his accounts are
80. 800 short. This amount Is amply secured
By his bond and no loss will be sustained by
the Government. Ewing says he can ex-
plain the seeming discrepancy and Will do so
IN the course Of time.

To the Blaineites.

The Bristol NelnS will be pleased to read
the following paragraph from the Cleveland
Plain Dealer;
mo matter what may be said one way or
the other about Blaine's health or Blaine's
defamation, the fact remains that he Is still
m the field, and there seems 20 be no doubt
thst he will receive the nomination OF his
party. To refuse 10 renominate Blaine
would show cowardiee on the part OF the
Republicans. Blaine Is the leading living
Republican to-day, standing beside his com.
pciitors In his own party for the leadership
like giant beside race Of dwaris. The
expression OF conventions la every State In
the Union favorable 10 Blaine. In spite Of
his Florentine letter, shows that he will be
nominated no matter whether such a course
will be wise or the contraiy."
IL Is an Ohio paper that thus points out to
the Virginia Blaineites the way 10 Kill of

allies OF the mslignants who encourage
SHERMAN TO hope that he can be nominated.

Shortly after the adjournment OF the Demo

steep bill along Scott street the steers got
detached from the wagon and ran at gallop
down the nil. The wagon followed rapidly

wards the mountains. The whiskey alone re-
manned with the United States officers. This
had been removed from the wagon before the

The southern filibusiers who defeated the
dircct.tax reiunding bill on the claim that 1t
depletes the Treasury didn't filibuster when
they came to the river and harhor bill, which
goes many millions deeper into the Treasury.

The "soutbern filibusters" acted very I'M
wisely and inconsistency, no doubt, in fill
clustering for the defeat OF the direct-tax
bill; but all the same they acted wisely in
voting for the river and harbor bill. The
importance attached to this bill by the people
Of the South was well illustrated by Hon.

FALSE APTOsIuOS.-lt would seem that
false apposi,ion Is q universal characteristic
Of the literary men OF this country. The
cOckney does not know when he drops his
obs" and even many a school'teacher in
The United States does not recognize false
opposition when he sees II. That the United
States Commissioner OF Education, the Hon.
y. II. r. DAWSON, should be chargeablc with
such an offence Is remarkable. But so 1t Is.
In an address recently delivered by him in
Washington city to the Department OF SUI
perlntendence OF the National Educational
Association be said
I" As the honored representatives, OF state
and city systems OF education, your dehee-
rations will attract, as they deserve, pubic
interest,""
Mr. Dawson meant TO say that his bearers
were the honored representatives OF State
and city systems. What he did say was
that their deliberations were the honorcd
representatives, &c. The word "yOu" IS
the only word that could properly have
followed the word education.'
