ton the Office was rendered to him,
and he accepted it. When the APP
pointment was made public 1T was
really amusing to see the members
of the combine chasing around try
ing to find somebody to introduce
them to the new Public Printer so
they could get IN their applications
the "fat" positions under him. 1t
is thought that one of these men,
Donath, nominally Of Pennsylvania,
really of the District of Columbia
may lose his mind, so great shock
has the disappointment been at not
being made Public Printer. He was
so certain that he was to get the APP
pointment that he lad already Civ
en- away several of the most import
ant places in the Government Print
ing office.
1t is evidently the purpose of the
republican politicians to make the
census bureau an asylum for their
political proteges. The Interior De
partment has decided that the ap
pointments in this bureau are not
under the civil service rules. The
bureau will have next year when it
gets regularly to work, over 1,50O
clerks, besides an army of special
agents, and the most of these win be
kept for two years or longer. 1t
will be great convenience to prom
inent republicans to use these posit-
ions to pay off their political debts,
and If the appointments were made
under civil service rules that would
be impossible
The first of the fifteen contested
election cases which are to come be-
fore the Fifty first Congress was
opened by the Clerk of the house this
week. 1t was Chalmers vs.. Morgan,
of the second Mississippi District
Harrison having provided snug
place for his brother is now, so it is
said, about to appoint Blaine's
brother to one Of the most lucrative
local offices in Washington, Register
of Wills.
The new Secretary of Agriculture
in order to prove his familiarity with
farming implements, and maybe to
get solid with the farmers of the
country, put in half an hour cutting
grass with a scythe in the grounds
surrounding his department, one
day this week. OF course he was en-
tlrely ignorant of the fact that sew
eral newspaper men had their eyes
on him during the entire perform
ance.
Republicans are already beginning
to compare Harrison with Hayes and
Arthur; they say that he is timid al
most to the extent of cowardice.
1t is said that the Post office De
partment is appointing clerks in the
Railway Mail Service and dating
their appointments in April in order
to avoid compliance with civil ser
vice rules under which all such ape
pointments should have been mad
since May.
Senator German thinks that Cal
vim S. Brlce will be elected chairman
of the National democratic committee
to succeed the late ex- Senator Bar
mum. This is taken here to mean
that Senator German will not accept
the position.
Theodore Roosevelt of New York,
who has just been appointed as one
of the republican Civil Service Com
missioners, is a pronounced free ira
der. Funny isn't it that man
elected President solely because he
was rigid protectionist should give
such prominent appointment to a
free trader,
The newspaper mans luck has not
yet deserted him. The new Public
Printer Is member of the fratern-
ity.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our Regular Correspondent
Washington, NAV IA. 1889.

ashlngton, May IA, 1889.
Harrison made the best appoint,
ment that he has yet made when he
selected Elk Gov Thompson, of South
Caroliua, as the democratic member
of the Civil Service Commission.
Gov. Thompson was Assistant Sec
rotary of the treasury under Cleye,
lands administration, and was dur
ing the last days OF Congress ap
pointed by Mr.. Cleveland to the
same position he has just received
from a Republican President, but
the Senate did not act on his nomin-
alton.
There is weeping and wailing, and
crashing Of teeth among the little
crowd Of late applicants for the pos
itlon of Public Printer, five of whom
are understood to have made com
bination, each promising to give the
other four appointments in the Of
flee if made Public Printer, over the
fact that the coveted prize has gone
to Elk Congressman Frank w. Palm
er, formerly postmaster at Chicago.
Whether Harrison suspected the
combine which these applicants had
entered into | cannot say, but it is
known that some days ago he told a
gentleman that he should not APP
point any Of the applicants up to that
time and asked him to name good
man for the office, Palmer was
named, and after further inyestIga.
