What the Record : Show.

The extra session OF the Senate at the
beginning of President Harrison's term
was Of exactly the same length as that
at the beginning of the term Of Presi-
dent Cleveland. The object for which
the extra session was called was in both
cases the confirmation of ofappointments.
President Cleveland upon entering Of
flee found every department of the gov
ernment in the hands of the Republi-
cans. A Democrat in any position,
even the most obscure, was as rare as a
white bIackbird. 1t was to have been
expected that a wholesale slaughter Of
Republican office holders would imme-
diately follow the Inauguration of the
first Democratic President since the
birth of men who have become heads
of families.
When President Harrison took his
seat at the expiration Of President Cleve-
lands term he found Republicans in
great numbers still holding office
Some changes were of course necessary
at once, that the heads of departments
might be in political harmony with the
new administration, but the excuse for
wholesale removals which might justly
have been pleaded in 1885 did not eXist
in 1889, yet what do the records show?
In one months extra session of the
Senate in 1885 President Cleveland sent
in III nominations and withdrew 2. In
the corresponding period Of 1889 Presi-
dent Harrison sent in 374 nominations
and withdrew 3. The Senate rejected
one of President CIeveland's nomina.
tions and two of President Harrison's
Thus it will be seen that with far les:
excuse for speedy and extensive remov'
ais President Harrison in the first
month changed more than double the
number of officials appointed by his
predecessor in the same time and ye
the ravenous crowd of Republican of
flee seekers are not satisfied.
They are yelping and bowling like

The Einel Tower.

At the grand entrance to the Paris
Exposition stands the wonderful Eiffel
tower. 1t has now reached its intended
height, 1000 feet. 1t Is triumph OF
modern engineering skill. 1t will be
furnished with fonr elevators Of Ameri-
can manufacture, and 1t Is expected
they will make the entire ascension in
from seven to ten minutes.
At the first grand landing, at the
height of $50 feet, there will bea variety
of little shops, a cafe and restaurant.
The charge to go to this landing will be
five frances-one dollar. There are al
so four staircases leading to this landing
for those who are courageous enough to
climb them.
From this landing visitors can make
the ascent to the top ofthe tower in one
of the four elevators. The carges will be
one Louis-four dollars-for each per-
son. From the summit of the tower
the view will be grand, wonderful
panorama stretched as far as the eye
can reach, magnificent beyond all that
has ever been seen except from a bal
loon.
Considerable speculation has been in
dulged in regarding the solidity of the
tower, its resistance to wind storms,
lightning, etc. The peculiar and practi'
cal construction and form of its Oase in
sures its solidity. The foundation oi
each of the four divisions of the base
are built four stories underground, ano
are of solid masonry.
The tower is calculated to resist winC
to the extent of600 pounds to the square
yard, whereas the most violent tempes
ever known in or about Paris has no
produced half that pressure.
1t will be almost an impossibility TO
it to be struck by lightning, as precau
tions have been taken in its cOnstruc
ton to make the tower its own protec
tor, so that visitors are positively as
sured against any accident by light
ming.
The French government has given
large amount of money towards tn
building of the tower. The protector
and inventors will reap their harves
during the Exposition, after whicl
time the tower will become the proper
ty of the French government.

An exchange has the following: Dur

ment in seven manufacturing towns
The failures numbered 22l, against 16s
for the corresponding days last year,
and the Tribune in summarizing the
situation, said: "Not for years were SO
many iron workers out of employ
ment." Republicans may say that
their victory last November did not
cause this. But it certainly did not
