A NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. CORRECTED.

From the Pittsburgh CommercialGazette.
Ii General Henderson, of Missouri, pro-
perly expresses the views of the President
in relation to Congressional recommends
tions for appointment to Office, serious
misapprehension will at once be removed.
1t was early given out that the President
would hold Senators and Representatives
to accountability for their recommends
tions, and that in cases of dispute among
themselves resulting from rivalry among
candidates he would expect them to get
together and agree upon a common re-
commendatiOn. ItwaS inferred from this
that when the Senators and Representa-
tives reached an agreement, or when there
was no contest, the person recommended
would be appointed.
This, according to General Henderson's
statement, is not what the President in
tended. In advising consultation and the
harmOniZing of differences, he did not in
tend to give them authority to control the
offices. He wanted them to be thorough
ly informed as to all the facts, that they
might promote harmony among the fac
tions, and give them the full benefit of
their advice, but did not mean to make
them arbiters of contests between candi-
dates. If appointment followed recon-
mendation, then he intended to hold Con-
gressmen responsible for the fitness of the
person appointed. In a word, the admin
istration is the proper tribunal for pass
ing upon candidates, while the Congress
men are the most important witnesses in
enabling the court to arrive at wise deci-
sions. This is very important interpre-
tatiOn of the rule laid down Immediately
after the Inauguration, and by paying at
tention to it Congressman and candidates
will save themselves no little worry and
disappointment.

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
Greek, Mich. ,inventedandbegan
to develop an entirely new and
novel style of Grain Thresher and
Separator, which theyveryappro-
priately named the "Vibrator."
1t was revolution in Thresh-
ing Machines, and from a small
beginning of five machines in
1858 they soon reached a 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 & 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
seeds, as superior to all existing
machines as their former was to

FOOD FOR REFLECTION

From the New York Sun Dem.)
Mr.. Joseph J. WINS, editor and propri-
etOr of the Athens Post, one of the oldest
and most prominent of the Democratic
newspapers of Tennessee, has abandoned
the Democratic party, and will hereafter
act with the Republicans and give them
the support of his journal. From the tel
egraphed summary of his reasons for the
change, it seems that she argues from the
"recOrd that the development of manu-
"factures in the South depends largely
upon the success of Republican princi-
"ples."
The course of Mr.. Wins is to be regret
ted, but every man is the keeper of his
political conscience. If he believes that
protection is necessary to the prosperity
of the South, his belief is shared by mil
lions of his countrymen, Democrats and
Republicans. If he believes that the
Democratic party is careless about pro-
lection or unfriendly to it. and that the
safety of the protective policy can be best
insured in Republican hands. he errs in
taking the proscriptive fanaticism of a
handful of zealots for the deliberate pur-
pose of great party.
He is not to be blamed, however much
his detection may be deplored. The per-
sons are to be blamed whose rashness and
vociferatiOn have frightened him out of
a party which is still faithful to protec
ton, and which got last year bitter les
son IN the necessity of stunning even the
suspicion of being unfaithful to it.
There was no good reason why Mr.. WINS
should not have remained in the Demo
cratic party and worked with the gyeat
company of resolute protectiOnists whom
it contains for the assertion of its essen
tai principles and the checking of mis-
chievous theories and the suppression of
the doctrinaires. But he has done what
seemed to him his duty. In connection
with protection demonstrations at Bir-
mingham and Chattanooga, the WINS in
cident may give the Republicans some
encouragement of their hopes from the
South; and it should give the free-trade
dervishes sackclOth and ashes and a re-
pentant spirit.

additional Editorial on first page.

UNDER the caption Public Opinion"
will be found an article from the Pitts
Juryh Chronicle-Telegraph about immi-
grafton, which deserves careful reading.
We are not prepared 10 say that we
are ready to go SO far as to shut the
doors upon all immigrants, but the stu
alton of working people in this country,
especially of unskilled labOrers, is such
as to demand an instant aud powerful
check upon the food of people pouring
into the country from abroad daily. All
the people, and all interests, are alike
concerned in having a well-paid and
contented working people. 1t is as
much to the interest of employers as of
employees. They make markets for the
wares of manufacturers, and they fur
nish traffic for railroads. The money
they earn is expended at home. If they
are employed, and are earning good
wages, all other classes of people are di-
rectly benefited by their prosperity.
There is another feature of this mat
ter, not spoken of by our our Pittsburgh
contemporary. A large proportion of
the foreigners who come to these shores
settle in the cities, and very many of
them become anything but desirable
citizens. This makes it necessary to
maintain regiments of armed police,
and in other ways adds greatly to the
burdens of government.
This question should receive enlight-
ened treatment at the hands of the next
Congress.

THE extension of schoolmaSters' ex-
aminations to the employees of the rail
road mail service is the height of alb
surdity. Long ago examinations were
instituted in that branch of the civil
service which are practical, but the real
test of mans fitness, after all, is to be
found in his work. Many men who
know very little of geometry or astron-
omy make superior postal clerks, while
many who are well up in those and 9TH
er branches needful in a school room
would succeed poorly in wrestle with
the mails on an express train.

THE SIOUX RESERVATION

Pittsburgh Commercial Gazette
The appointment of Gen. Crook, ex-
Governor Foster and Hon. VIM. War
ner as Commissioners to negotiate with
the Sioux Indians for the purchase of
their reservation in Dakota is likely to
be followed by results which will event
ually lead to to the addition of an i'm
mense area to the National domain and
its subsequent settlement under the
homestead laws. The commission is
authorized to negotiate for the purchase
of a part of what is known as the
"great Sioux Reservation" in the mid
die of South Dakota, the remainder to
be divided into separate reservations.
This is the largest reservation in the
country, and contains q, ,593,l ,l2S acres
equal almost to the total area of Penn
sylvania. There are about $4,000 Indi-
ans living on these lands, and under an
act OF Congress passed about year ago
the Secretary of the Interior was in
structed to negotiate with these Indians
for the ceSSion of these lands to the Uni
ted States. The redskins were shrewd
enough to drive hard bargain, de-
manding 81 25 an acre, probably fixing
as a standard the sum at which the Gov
ernment sells its land to actual settlers.
The Commissioners offered 80 cents an
acre, but as two-thirds of the Indians
refused to give their assent to sell at
that price the negotiation fell through.
Now new effort is to be made by the
commission just appointed, and only
such portions of the reservation as are
not needed for the use and occupancy
of the Indians will be negotiated for.
This will enable them to select such
part of their domain as will best suit
their purposes and inclinations, and
realize enough of the remainder to make
them very comfortable for the rest of
their lives.
