Mr.. LODGES Reform Measure.

Representative Lodge, of Massachusetts,
devotes a good deal of MS time to preparing
and advocating reform measures. a day
or two ago he introduced into the House q
bill to regulate the appointment Of fourth
class pos,masters. 1t provides that Ia,
whole country shall be divided into districts
by the postmaster general, and that each
district shall have an inspector, who shall
act as an examiner. Whenever a fourth
class p1stoflics becomes vacant, the inspec-
tor for the district in which the office is To-
Gated shall advertise for apple atoms. Each
applicant must state in his written
application what bis qualifications are, and
he must also furnish a certificate,
signed by three reputable citizens, not
federal Office holders, that he is a suitable
person for postmaster. No questions are to
be asked with respect to politics, the pur-
pose being to appoint the best man, regard
less Of his politics. The inspector must
forward the application papers to the Post
master General, and he must recommend
that one Of the applicants whom be thinks
best fitted for the vacant Office, giving his
reasons for his recommendation. The Post
master General. however. may appoint
any one of the applicants, though it is to be
presumed that he would appoint the one
recommended.
1t is doubtful if Mr.. Lodges plan amounts
to a reform. 1t provides for one thing,
however, to which the spoilsmen will raise
no objection, and that is an increase in the
number Of ofIice-holders The Inspector
ships would be very desirable Offices and
would pay, doubtless. quite large salaries.
But would Mr.. Lodges scheme make
fourth-class postmasterships non-partisan
officesi The probabilities are it would not.
The inspectors would be appointed by the
President, who would appoint men of
his own party, and they in turn would rec
ommend for pcstmasters those having the
same politics as their own.
If Mr.. Lodges purpose is to serve the
people would it not be a wiser plan to urge
the enactment of a law permitting fourth
class pOstmasters to remain in Office as long
as they give general satisfaction, removing
them only when well-supported complaints
Of untitness are made against them! The
congressman Of a district is better ac-
qualnted with the wants of the people of
his district in the matter of postmasters
than an inspector would be, and he
is much more likely to regard the peoples
wishes, because his reelection depends upon
his ability to please them. Mr.. Lodge may
be able TO show that his scheme is an i'm
provement upon the present plan, but the
few points with respect to it that have ap-
peared in the newspapers do not show it to
be 50.

John Conrad Hummer, of Kansas, is q
deaf mute, and when he saw Estella
Wyman. Of Ohio, also a deaf mute, his
heart went pit-a-pat, and shortly afterward
he went to Ohio on matrimony bent. The
lady had managed to let it be known that
she was willing to marry him, but when he
got to Cleveland he found an impeachment
of considerable proportions in the way.
The lady's sister, who was neither deaf,
dumb nor blind, vetoed the marriage. She
wouldn't let Hummer get in sight of his
lady love. and consequently Hummer was
mad, but as he couldn't express himself
verbally he went around and made light
ming signs to the chief of police, who be-
came firmly convinced that half of the town
had been murdered. Before Hummer could
make it clear to him what had really hap
pened, the lady love and her sister had fed,
and the disconsolate lover went back to
Kansas, where he has valuable and re-
munerative farm.

TIE Troublesome Chinesa.

/ The Chinese continue to make trouble for
/ the people Of the Pacific coast. Not only
are there already more Of them than are
wanted, but the number is being increased
1 by fresh arrivals right along, notwithstand-
Ing the Chinese restriction law, which both
! political parties were in such a great hurry
/ to enact in 1855. That measure was thought
to be all that was necessary to keep the
Chinese out, and, indeed, it contained one
or two features which, upon sober reflec-
ton, were considered rather harsh,
but it went through with a rush,
for presidential election was about to take
place, and each party wanted to commend
itself to the Pacific coast voters. Like
good many other laws it is frequently
evaded. 1t IS stated that last year there
were as many as 5000 evasions Of it; and
consequently the Chinese question is again
becoming the great issue on the Pacific
coast.
Congressman Morrow, of California,
thinks he has found a way TO prevent any
further evasions. The bill which he intro
duced some time ago. and which was
favorably reported the other day, pro-
shall so enumerate the Chinese population
as to make a complete descriptive
list of all Chinese who may be in this coun-
try at the time of the taking of the next
census. To each of these be shall give an
engraved certificate, which shall be num-
beree and registered in the census office.
When produced by one who shall establish
his claim to it, this certificate shall be ac-
cepted as evidence Of the right of such per-
son to remain in the United States, but if.
after three months from June l next, any
Chinese in this country shall fail to
produce such a certificate, he shall
be sent back to China, or be
imprisoned five years. The alternative of
imprisonment is intended to apply to Chi
nese having certificates. and the purpose of
it is to prevent them from protesting to
have none so as to be sent home at the
expense of this government. Mr.. Morrow
does not think that such law could be
evaded, but the only way to find out
whether it couldor not is to test it, and that
will probably be DONE

They Don't Save Anything.

AS to the cost of living in China.
says the New York World, Col DENLY,
our minister, told me that he could save nothing
from his salary, and there is perhaps less enter
tanning done at Pekin than at any other of our
foreign missions. The minister to Corea re-
ceives only $3.50 a year. and do not suppose
e at Mr.. DinSmore has saved anything to speak
OF. The colony at Seoul is a dinner giving one.
and when it is remembered that most of the
provisions are brought over from London via
Shanghai 1t will be seen that a dinner in China
Is quite an expensive item. Our minister to
Siam receives $1,000 a year, but he does not
nave to entertain to any great extent The
European ministers spend, as a rule, more than
their salaries and when Gov. Moves was minis
ter to Paris the entertaining was largely done
by MS secretary of legation, Mr.. Hit, al pres mt
Representative in congress from Illinois. Gov
Noyes ones told me that Mr. Hits expenses in
Paris were $4,000 a year. l doubt not that
Senator Palmer is spending at Madrid consider
ably more than he receives as Minister to Spain.
and Whiteaw Reid viii never get through with
his social duties at Paris on $17 600 year.

Americas Statesmen.

Whether the public man who halls from
the rural district is called the "hayseed
statesman" the rural sage" OF the Gross
roads politician" it matters not to Col.
Thomas P. Ochiltree, formerly of Texas,
but now of New YORK. The designation
may either Intentionally or unintentionallv
bring certain amount of ridicule upon
the public man from the country, but it
does not lessen Col. Ochiltree's high opinion
of him. The colonel says that it IS a curious
and undeniable fact that the great cities
have not furnished the statesmen who have
done much to mako this country what
it is, but that, on the contrary, American
history has been made and glorifed by men
from the rural districts CHANGING back
over the records of the continental congress
and the war for independence, and following
the history of the country, he asks: "How
many statesmen pre-eminent in ability and
magnificent in their attainments and sue
cess have the big and populous cities of the
country given to this nation? OF the great
and renowned soldiers whose name are
memorized in stored marble or massive
bronze, and held cherished in the hearts of
millions of their countrymen, how many of
them came from the crowded centers of
populationW And his answer is that they
could be counted upon the fingers of one
hand. He twits the cities of New York,
Philadelphia, Chicago, and Boston with
having been peculiarly poverty-stricken as
regards statesmen, and among the more
modern public men of command
ing ability and influence who
were not reared in cities, he
points to James Buchanan, Thaddeus
Stevens, Jeremiah Black, Horatio Seymour,
William H. Seward, Abraham Lincoln,
Stephen A. Douglas and jefferson Davis
The back settlements" furnish the great
men of to-day, according to Col. OchiItree,
and to prove the assertion he mentions
Grover Cleveland, ex-Speaker Carlisle,
Congressman Holman, Senators Edmunds.
Morgan, German, Allison, VOORHEES,,
Reagan, Sherman, Vance and a score of
Others.
Col. Ochiltree thinks that this is a curious
fact, but he does not attempt to explain it.
Perhaps it is not. The practical knowledge
which youth gains in the country, the
opportunity for study and meditation
which he has, added to the knowledge Of
the world which he gains afterward, are
conducive to craftsmanship in its broadest
| sense.

Charles w. Sterling, whose mail is now
sent to the Ohio penitentiary, is a good
looking man and pleasant conversational
ist, and, besides. he is one of the most nu-
merously married mon in the west. His first
matrimonial venture seems to have given
him such good opinion of matrimony that
he thought that too much of it would be an
impossibility. He married right and left.
and the women who think they have right
to his name are scattered over Illinois Wis
consin, Minnesota and Ohio. There are
eight of them, and if each one of them de-
termines to camp about the penitentiary
and wait for Sterling to come forth he will
have no occasion to visit barber shop
afterward, for they will pick his hairs out
one by one.
