OF southeast China, where the peach and
pear have been brought to greater per-

from this, Floridians believe that when
the right varieties are obtained they, too,

equal to their oranges.

it proved. Last night Mr.. Bishop sut-

fourth class possmassers. In answer he
said that practically all o. the changes

administration were bad; considerable
number has been found to be delinquent
in their accounts, other changes had
been made 10 order TO secure better

LlNCOLN's APPOINTMENT.

Austria. To-day President Harrison

nois senators smiled. The appointment

desirable of ell diplomatic plums. In
fact it had BEEN generally conceded that
Ohauncey M. Depew was to get lt, and
even up TO the time that the senate met
Senator Evsrts. who has himself had q
bar kering after the position, confiden-
TALLY informed friend that both he
and Senator Hoar were practically ont
Of the race, and that the appointment OF
MIR. Depew was as good Hs settled.
Senators Farwell and Onllom overheard

for they alone of ell the senators had re
ceIved tip. Last night Just as they
| we're about to retire word came from the
| white house that the president wanted
| to sac them at 10 O'Clock this morning.
Totally ignorant OF the object OF the
| summons they called on the president at
the appointed time, and were told that
Mr. Lincoln had been selected. Both
were much astoniehed, for neither had
even suggested Mr.. Lincoln's name in
connection with the place. On the con-
trary, they had NO desire to bestow upon
him any political favor. But
as in most every othey case,
the president consulted the wishes
of no one. He decided for himself
whom to appoint and then simply asked
the senators what they thought about it..
Ii he had consulted them first they would
undoubtedly have never murmured Mr..
Lincoln's name but would have recon-
mended John N, Jewett as first choice
and Congressman Hit as second, but
the appointment having already been
practically settled there was nothing for
the senators to do but swallow their diz-
appointment and express qualification
that so great favor had been bestowed
upon their state In announcing his
decision the president said that he se-
lected MIR. Lincoln because he is an ex-
cellent lawyer and having been secretary
OF war in Garfield's cabinet be has O
reputation az statesman that is almost
world wide, independent OF the fact that
be is the SON OF an illustrious man.

0mciaiiy Reported.

Helena, Mont, March 28-The daily
journal, Russell Harrison's paper, last
night received the following special dis
patch from Washington:
president Harrison does not desire it
to be understood that any general rule
or general principle Will operate to keep
oil democrats In office till the expirations
of their present commissions. Each
case will be taken up separately and
upon it's distinctive merits. Circum.
stances which will operate to hold in
position one officer will not necessarily
have any influence upon another case.
The impression has gone abroad that it
will be the policy of the administration
to permit all democrats who are efticiens
in their positions to serve till the end OF
the time specified in their commissions.
aud that officers will not be removed on
the ground OF offensive partissnship.
This may hold good in specific cases,
but it cannot be applied as q general
rule.
There is to be no Official, or technical
term in this administration as there was
in the last. known as offensive partisan
ship, that is TO say, officers are not to
be charged with being extensively parti-
san and removed-for that cauHe. There
are other and better ways OF making
vacancies. There are sufficient num-
Der OF officers who are inefficient to
make an almost complete change in the
control OF the federal service throughout
the country. The postal service is IN o
terribly demorslized condition, and ii
all the inefficient democrats were re-
moved there would be few democrats
left. The same may be trnthfuliy ssid OF
majority OF federal officers who hold
commissions issued by President Oleve-
land"

The sage of the Dead wood Tin es has

The sage of the Dead wood Tim es has
reached conclusion o long distance
from the premises. but quite close for
the Times. Upon Ysnkton insane asy-
lum fairs it says:
1t was devoHtly hoped that the last
legislature would do something to
ssraig hten out affairs at Ysskton and
prevent recurrence. Nothing was so-
complished. however, save TO sggravste
the situation snd to perp. tnate an out
rageons scandal and disgrace of the en-
tire territory. Yankton by its default
in the pay ment OF bond interest, years
ago, prevented the admission of South
Dskots; and now by its utterly inexcus-
sble and nausesting asylum quarrel,
gives ground to the argument abroad
that Dakotaiaus are not competent for
statehood privileges.
This will hardly pass for logical de-
duction or "ietching" argument, though
it's brilliancy is uneclipsed By anything
that has appeared in the Deadwood
Times fox many years.
