THE POLITICAL LAW.

When CLEVELAND was inaugurated he
found one KNowLToN, an active and radi-
cal Republican, was postmaster at Bridge
port, Conn. The President waited nearly
two years, until the four years term of
the man had expired, before appointing a
successor. Within a month after HAKRI-
SONS Inauguration CLEyELAND'S appointee
at Bridgeport was summarily removed and
KNowLToN re-instated. KNowLTON found
in the Office bright and capable Demo
cratic clerk, and the other day sent for him,
and upon the young man appearing, the
postmaster made the following Republican
reform speech: Young man, ! have
noticed your work, and l can say you do
your work admirably But as
you were not with US last fall, the papers
are made out and signed for your sue
cessOr."
This was politics, and in that sense, was
right. The young man, we hope, did not
complain. His party was beaten at the
polls, and he was beaten with it, What
ever the theory may be, practice has made
this a partisan government. 1t may all be

in every way better if there were no
changes in the working force of the nation,
the only changes being in the heads of the
departments and bureaus. But different

victors belong the spoils'' is more than
an Idle sentiment. II means very nearl Y
all that it says, and Democrats and Repub-
hcans 10th recognize IL as part OF their
creeds if not Of their platforms.
Therefore, we say no partisan should
complain when he is bounced by the oppo-
sition. Good Democrats do not find fault
when they are turned out; they expect TO
go, and have considered that they have held
Office by suferance since March 4, when
the Republicans were entitled to the places
under party usage if not under strict
construction of the law. The only thing
the Democrats complain Of is that the
offices to which they were entitled on
March 4, 1885, were not conferred but were
held by the enemy.
The more incidents like that in,cthe
Bridgeport postofice which are recorded,
the better for the Democrats. They will
serve as valuable instruction to the next
Democratic President, teaching him that
there is an unwritten law in party politics
party, no matter how offensive that law
may be TO him, or how contrary to his
sense Of right. That law reads "to the
victors belong the spoils," and we are glad
the Republican administration is teaching
future Democratic Presidents how to en-

CHARLESTON, W. Va, Feb. THE situation
seems but little changed from yesterday.

gentlemen who oppose him give no indication
Of an intention to modify their course. The
candidacy of Carr for United States Senator is
not pleasing to either party, but il is especially
unpropitious to the republicans, as, in case he
should be elected by dicker with the demo-
Gratis and the gubernatorial contest be sent to
the senate, it would give STANDARDIZATION
Woods the governorship.
Yesterday. after the vote for governor of one
county was read. a resolution was introduced
that the governors vote in the remaining coun-
ties be not read. The republicans immedi-
ately objected. and the hottest debate Of the
whole session followed. Finally the democrats
carried the resolution by a strict party vote
AZ TO IL. The vote on governor, so far as it
had been read, shows a majority for Fleming,
democrat.
This rather puts the republicans in a hole,
for If they insist, as they have done, that the
reading establishes any claim to the seat. it will
be in Fleming's favor. The reading of the
vote on the other state officers will be COM
pleted, and the committee appointed to hear
the contest will Immediately begin its sittings

ANOTHER BILL TO REGULATE AND LICENSE
PAwNBRoKERs.
Senator Teller, by request, this afternoon in
troduced in the Senate bill to regulate and
license pawnbrokers in the District of Colum-
bia. In many respects the bill is identical
with the House bill similarly entitled. After
empowering the District Commissioners to
issue licenses, and defining the occupations of
those persons who are to be known as pawn
brokers, the bill goes on to fix the price Of the
annual license at 800. Every person so
licensed is to enter with two sufficient sureties.

months is not to exceed 2 per cent, and / per
cent for each succeeding month. No pawn
broker is to sell any pawn or pledge until the

ton, conducted by licensed auctioneer of the

the loan, the interest then due on the same,
and the expenses of the advertisement and sale,

person who would be entitled to redeem the
pledge in case no such sale had taken place.
Section IL of the bill provides that no pawn
broker shall under any pretense whatever, pur-
chase or buy any secondhand furniture, metals,
or clothes, or any other article or thing what

ESTIMATES OF APPROPRIATIONS REQUIRED.
The following estimates of appropriations
were laid before the House to-day: For an ap-
preparation of S2l1.75, to pay the expenses of
the special messenger sent to Florida for the
electoral vote of that state; for an appropria-
ton of $4,000 to supply deficiency existing
in the printing fund of the Department of Ag-
riculture; for an appropriation of 81. 500 in ad-
dition to the $1,000 already asked for expenses
of transferring the coast and geodetic steamer
Gedney from New York to San Francisco; also
for an appropriation Of $3.50 for repairs of
vessels in the coast survey.
THE OKLAHOMA BILL.
The action of the Creek Indians in agreeing
to cede their lands in the proposed Oklahoma
Territory, it is thought, will tend to simplify
matters when the Oklahoma bill is considered.
The Seminole Indians, it is understood. are
ment. These tribes are said to be in need of
the money that will be received from the sale
of their lands. There is objection among SEN
ators to the bull as it passed the House. because
the civilized tribes are excluded from the ter
ritory; it is thought they should come in with
the rest.

LONDON, Feb. Tt has been ascertained be-
yond doubt that the steamer which was sunk
in collision with the British bark Largo Bay,
of Beachy Head on Monday night, was the
Glencoe, belonging to the Glen line. of Glas-
gov. The Glencoe was bound from Liverpool
for London. She carried a crew numbering
81 men, all of whom were presumably drowned
She had no passengers. She was last reported
as having passed Prawle Point on Monday
The Glencoe was three-masted iron screw
steamer of 1,901 tons. She was built at Glas-
cow in 1878, was owned by McGregor, Cow Il
Co., and was rated 100 Al at the British Lloyds
THE FORCE OF THE COLLISION
was so great that the foremast of the Largo
Bay was jerked out and fell across her deck
house, crushing it. A wild tempest was raging
at the time of the accident and snow was fall
ing so thickly that il was impossible for the
lookout on either vessel to see the lights of the
other until the collision was inevitable. The
Glencoe forged ahead, trying to cross the
Largo Bays bow, but failed to do so, and ran
at full speed into the bark, demolishing 10 feet
Of her bow. The Largo Bay would also have
sunk had she not been provided with water
tight sections. The suddenness of the shock
dazed the crew of the bark. They
SAW NOTHING FURTHER OF THE STEAMER,
but could make out her croy struggling in the
water. 1t was impossible, however, to render
them any assistance, all Of the Largo BAYS
boats being smashed. The wind blew with
such force that the sails of the bark were torn
to shreds and a boy was carried overheard.
The bark weathered the storm until rescued
and towed into Cowes. It is now learned that
