ored clcrsymen recently appointed Re
corder Of the General Land Office. will
reach the city tomorrow. AS Recorder
Mr.. Townsend will be chief Of division
where there are a score or more ot Ia
dies employed There is considerable
anxiety TO see Mr.. Townsend and ilnd
out what sort OF man he is. Some or
the employees bave expressed tire opin-
ion, in a quiet way, that Il colorcd man
ought not to hold that position, bat the
majority are waiting to see the man be-
fore they make up their minds on this
point. There are twenty-five lady clerks
employed in that division and they are
brought by the nature of their employ
mcnt into constant ara direct communl-
cation with the Recorder.
Mr.. Townsend is said to be an cstIma-
BE gentleman. He is Secretary of a
National Missionary Society, has been
twice member of the Indiana LcSlSla-
ture, owns fine farm and came very
near being elected Bishop Of his church
recently. But all these things are for
gotten by the ladies in that division,
who only remember that Rev. j. Town
send is a colored man. Since his ap-
pointment nearly half Of the ladies in
his division have applied for transfer
to some other division. They all want
to be kept on the government payroll,
and for that reason are aycrSc 10 taking
much about the matter, bat the app!ica-
tions for transfer speak for them

His First Effort to Recognize Them

His First Effort to Recognize Them
Liable to Be a Failure.
WASHINGTON, May 13.-The President,
it is reported, has tripped up in his first
recognition of the colored brother. The
man appointed Is the Rev. J. NJ. Town
send of Richmond, Ind, and the Office
is the Recordership of the General LanG
Office, worth 1000 year. Mr.. Town
send is a prominent clergyman in the
African Methodist Episcopal Church,
and at the last General Conference came
within few votes Of being elected a
bishop. Another bishop is to be elected
next fall, and Mr.. Townsend, as matters
now stand, seems to be sure OF the
place. But his friends say if he should
90 into politics his chances for the bish
opric would be blighted. He is now
struggling with the proposition, and his
friends think the outcome will be his
Geclination of the political Office.
The relations in general between the
colored brother and the administration
are still strained. Colored leaders from
the South have been calling at the White
House every few days for two menthss
but beyond few assurances OF frie &
sfp they have secured nothing T
PreSiSent has said to them that II thy
will only wsst everything will work out
to their satisfaction.
s'But how kin We wait, said a Elr-
ginia darkey in Illuminating on the
Presidents assurance, "wraanllSs anllSs Wit. We -slJ

longer on wind. I'm bound TO say dat

THE EFARMERs WILL BE FREE.
& Declaration of Independence at Biz
mingham, Ala.

BIRMINGHAM, May 16.-The National
Convention Of Alliances and Wheels to
consider the bagSing question continued
in secret session to-day. \ proposition
was lla4A-.eS- lla4-.S-hy-1iS -hy- LIZ renEes2:aEativas OF the
Iutc baeging manufacturers PNe>nt as
follows:
;.To sell for present de!irery jute bag
ging at these prices: 1i-pound baSsing
at 81 cents per yard, 4-pouud bagging
at 81, 2-pound bagging at %, 2}-pound
bagging at 10s, or at less than five cents
per pound; also, that if farmers were
not prepared 70 take and pay tor bagging
now that they would hold the baggins
for them until 1t was needed, adding !
of cent per yard for each month.
The iutc basging men claim that at
the price asked for bagsing made OF
cotton, 12l cents for cloth weighing
three-fourths of pound OF 1GS cents
per pound, that jute bagging at present
prices, ) cents per pound, Is less than
one third OF the price OF bagglng made
of cotton, and It's use will save the
planter at least dollar per bale. This
estimate of the amount saved per bale
is based on the suppositiou that cotton
exchanges will not reduce the existing
tarc reduction foSf>y y.e aa s,s52..
The convention declined this proT5os---
ton. The following IS the full text Of
the resolutions reported by the commit
tee and adopted On this subject:
''Resoiced, That we, from all the light
before Us. recommend to this body the
permanent use of cotton bagging as
covering for cotton. We also recommend
the appointment of a committee, whose
actual expense shall be paid proportion
ately by the various State Alliances,
Wheels and Unions, whose duty it shall
be to secure from purchasers and man
ufacrlrers of cotton covered in cotton
bagging an allowance of at least eight
pounds on each bale at the market price
of cotton when sold We still further
recommend that in the event of any cot
ton buyer refusing to grant the allow
ance above asked, for then We advise
members of the Alliances, Wheels and
Unions not to sell until such concessions
are allowed"
It was developed that there was some
opposition to the above resolution, but
it went through with practical unanl-
nifty. The delegates contend that there
is no such saving in the use OF jute bag
ging as the manufacturers allege, and
they further have no guarantee that the
price will not be put ap again at will in
future years. The price offered by lne
cotton bagging manufacturers is 125
Iec7erff1ts cents per yard weighing three-quarters

How It Gave EN- Away.

Private Secretary Pearson, OF Coy
ernor Beavers Office, Harrisburg, Pa,
had a curious and somewhat startling
experience with the graphophone. He
began to turn the crank, and supposed
that he was about to cause the machine
to give out to the young lady typewriter
a message which the Governor had
talked into it the evening previous.
The young lady was all attention, and
the private secretary began to solemnly
turn the crank, which works by Il
tread!e. To BIZ horror and the intense
embarrassment of the young lady, the
following amorous jumble WAS given out
with decided emphasis
''Now, don't George. $ There;
somebody will come. Of course, l love
YOU. There; somebody is really coming
and you have mussed my hair all up.
< A < Please, love, I'm so afraid some
one will come IN; besides, can't work
this crank If you insist upon kissing me
all the time" :
The stars represent sounds too ia
miliar to be mistaken They were the
smacking of lips and other sounds
which accompany the interchange of
caresses between lovers.
1t was some little while before it could
be satisfactorily explained, either by the
young lady or by Mr.. Pearson, who at
first we're disposed to imagine that some
body had been playing a practical joke
upon them. The matter was finally
Strengthened out, however, when the ex-
ecutive clerk came around, and, upon
hearing of the incident, laughed heart
ily. He had the evening before been
showing a bride and groom about the
executive department, and, being called
away few minutes, had left them IN
the private secretary's room to amuSe
themselves with the graphophone while
he attended to the business which had
called him away.

NO REMOVALS EXCEPT FOR CAUSE.
Presidential Pcstmasters May Serve
Their Fcur-Year Terms from Date ct
Confirmation.

WASHINGTON. Nav IS. S.-Pre>i;ie9tlai
pos1masters will be allowed to Scrva on
their fGur-year terms from the date OF
confirmation by the Senate. Postmaster
General Wanamaker made this plain to-
day bv stating that the President Is
not making removals except for cause.
lie added that to diSplace 4 postmaster
before his term expired would be 4 re-
moval. This is the first authoritative
declaration that has been made on this
subject. 1t means that there will be no
more postmasters appointed at Presl-
dental offices until January. except to
fill vacancies caused by death Or re-
sisnation or removal for fragrant
cause.
The Postmaster General says that he
will promtly make removals where q
postmaster is shown tG be Inefficient,
but he will not remove man merely to
make a place for a Republican. This is
he position of the President, and he has
sent back to the department to 90 or
file the papers in several cases where he
has been asked to remove postmastcrs
whose commissions do not expire until
neyt spring.
If the position of the President and
the Postmaster General can be made
plain to the Office seekers, it Oi.ght to
diminish somewhat the pressure which
still keeps them from giving needed at
tcntion to. other matters. Tie Demo
Gratis who were appointed to rrcSid"n-
tial post offices during the summer of
1885 were not confirmed by the Senate
until January or later, some not until
July, so that their four-ycars' terms run
we'll into 1890, and under the rule es-
tablished by the President their sue
cessors will not be nominated until near
the expiration of their terms.
