The Railway Mail Service,

The railway mail service went under the civil
service rules today. There are about 500 men In
the service and they are probably not far from
equally divided between the two parties. Under
Villas and Dickinson thrce-fourths of the repub-
lean clerks were dismissed. The first thing
Mcssrs. Wanamaker and GARRISON did after
taking hold of the postoilice department was to
begin the work of rcinstating the old clerks who
were competent. At the request of the civil
service commission President Harrison post
poned the time from which the civil rules should
apply to May lst In the interim not far from
| 800 appointments were matchmaking like the
clean sweep that was charged. A few more old
employees will be reinstated without undergoing
examination, because this is permissible under
| rule 10 OF the civil service regulations, which
| provides far such reinstatements within year
after dismissal. There are still good many in
competent democrats filling places in the railway
mail service. Tbs tenure of these Will be length.
| cned some time because of the time it will take
| to fill their places with civil service candidates,
but in the end they will have to co. General
Superintendent Bell will not tolerate inefficient
subordinates All the employees of the service
come within the civil service rules with the ex-
ception Of the superintendent and the assistant
| superintendent. II has been the custom To fp.
point men living near the line OF road over which
they would travel In attending to their duties.
In this way long trips while off duty to reach
their homes are avoided. IL is supposed that
when q requisition Is made upon the commission
/ for a clerk TO ill vacancy upona certain route
names will be selected OF persons residing In the
vicinity. The usual rule In regard to quotas fni
dlffefsnt states viii probably have to be changed
In reference TO railway mail appointments, as
the same route may extend through several
states. The fact that a man lives in certain
state, unless he happens to live near the railroad
line, win not make the appointment a satisfac,
tory one. With this exception II Is thought that
the service win get along as well under the civil
service rules as before. The examinations will
be just the same, only conducted under different
auspices Washington Special, My Isl.

THE people and the press of soutl

THE people and the press of south
western Iowa will almost unanimously
support Senator Young, of Cass, for
the gubernatOrial nomination, while in
all other parts of the state where they
are not exercising local pride in sup
porting home candidate, he would al,
so be well supported, as he is well
known by his faithful and fearless ser,
vice in the senate and by his newspa

matter are known consideration of hi:

the Threshing Machines then
in use were almost wholly Of
the class known as the Endless
Apron" style. Then it was that
Nichols & Shepard, of Battle
Creek, Mich. ,inventedandbegan
to develop an entirely new and
novel style of Grain Thresher and
Separator, which they very appro-
priately named the vibrator"
1t was a revolution in Thresh-
ing Machines, and from a small
beginning of FIVE machines in
1858 they soon reached pro-
duct of 1000 yearly.
Their Vibrator drove the End
less Apron machine out of mar
ket, and all other makers copied
it as closely as they dared. To-
day all Threshing Machines OF
any reputation or merit use the
principles Of the old Vibrator.
Nichols G Shepard have con-
tinued in the business without
change Of name, location, or
management; and during the
past three years have brought
out and developed another new
Threshing Machine for grain and

machines as their former was to

THE railroad commission has ordered
the Rock Island to rebuild six-mile
branch, upon which it recently discon-
tinued service and took up the track
1t is difficult to ascertain all the facts
necessary to an opinion in this case
but upon the face it appears that it is
an assumption of power on the part OF
the commission more difficult Of exc,
cution than conception. The commits,
sion has authority doubtless to pres
cribe service on established roads, but
we apprehend that the company will
protest against the right to compel
the rebuilding and operation OF
abandoned road. The end of the case

AN outbreak of anarchists is antici-
pated in Chicago on the occasion of the
unwilling of the statue erected to the
memory of their martyr" brothers, on
May Both. The government of Chicago
has been unreasonably lenient with
this very troublesome element of its
society and has encouraged imposi-
ton upon local laws, so that In their
blind unreasoning the anarchists pro
coed in defiance of law until the crisis
is fraught in blood. The climax of
this utter disregard for consequences
is found in generally signed petition
for the pardon of the outlaws serving
life penalties in Joliet. The just and
fearless decision that cost Gov. Oglesby
30 much travail of mind should be sus
tanned by the people.

PRIVATE SECRETARY HALFORD, who

veracity denies the report that Presi'
dent Harrison Is failing under the pres,
sure of his duties. He states that the
president is enjoying his customary
good health and discharging the ar,
duous duties Of his position with very
little worriment. 1t is highly imprOb'
able that the man who withstood the
hardship and anxieties of military life
and leadership will be overweight by
the petty annoyances in these pacific
DAYS.

AN extraordinary endorsement of the
administration of President Harrison
is given in the New York Press of last
Sunday. The manager addressed in
quiries to a large number of prominent
people and the replies, from all parts
of the country and from all classes OF
people speak in almost unanimous &C,
cord in commendatory vein of the work
and undertakings during two months
of the administration. They show a
striking confidence in the integrity
patriotic purpose and ability of the
president and his advisors. 1t is {
grand endorsement and must prove al
inspiration to those in power.

SELF-sTYLEp reformerS, in whole

frequently heard arguing in favor OF
postal telegraph in the United States
but the experience of such dabbling by
the public in the legitimate field of pri
yAte enterprise by the English govern,
ment has proven an unsatisfactory eX.
pertinent. The system is operated
there at an annual loss of $1,5OO.O0O
We could not hope for that proportion
of success in this country for the rea,
son that much more capital would be
required to establish or purchase the
lines, which would be operated through
a more sparsely settled country. Pri,
vate enterprise has furnished us with
lines reaching to all parts of the coun-
try, which have been made good pay,
ing property, and the doubtful policy
of depriving private enterprise of the
legitimate fruits of its labor is made
more questionable by the probability
that government could not make it sell

greater benefits to patrons than are
now enjoyed. We believe the public Ii
satisfied with the present telegraph
service so long as it is prompt and &C

The DeSerters.

Here is speech of sound philosophy
from the Davenport Gazette: Not lesl
than thousand well to do Iowa farm
ers have sold out their homes within
the past five years and gone to Califor,
nia-to southern California chiefly
They all took money with them, from
$1,000 to So, 900 each. They had grown
dissatisfied with Iowa farming, with
Iowa soil, with Iowa prospects. Not
that they had not done fairly well in
Iowa, not that they were below the
average in ways of prosperity, not that
the climate was dangerous, or the soil
was stingy, but they wanted to do better
BY doing better they meant to work
less and gain more profit. They dis
liked the drudgery of raising corn and
making pork; they would seek. land
where corn might not be raised, where
making pork was unknown. In Iowa
they had to p!ow and SOW; in Califor,
mia they might only plant and pick,
plant out some orange groves or pur-
chase one: plant olive trees, grow figs
and raising, almonds, pears and prunes
Nothing hard to do. The trees and
vines would Outlive several lives, the
picking came but once year, a royal
harvest, with ready market, clean
cash flowing in, no winters, constant
summer, full success.
The deserters of Iowa farms and sol
made great mistake. The easy life
they sought was not in California. The
better soil they craved was not there
the better climate, possibly, but who
can live on climate? These farmer,
couldn't, and so they struggled back IL
penitence, or struggle where they are
| for mere sustenance. Such has beer
the rule. 1t is the rule of unrest, o
foolish fever-a phantom that lures
men on to poverty. Better learn
men can learn-that the bird in tn
hand is the best OF birds. that q goo,
