THE car of RUSSIA gives it out as his
opinion that all Europe is now on a per-
manent peace footing. The fact that he
has just ordered 100000 new rifles
seems, therefore, to warrant the graft
flying supposition that he is going to
celebrate the Fourth of July this year
in a manner befitting that glorious day.

TIE administration has queer way
of showing its respect of our foreign
born citizens. 1t accepts the resigna-
ton of eX-Congressman Grosvenor, who
insulted every foraign born citizen of
the United States. as chairman of the
immigration commission: which was
to Europe, as special Won Ids fair CON-
missioner, which was eminfntly i'm
proper. 1t isn't probable in view of the
circumstances, that Grosvenor' visit to
Europe will be of the slightest benefit to
the Worlds fair. 1t is much more like
ly to prove to be an injury.

THE CITY POST OFFICE.

The Officials Having Hard Time Trying
TO Get Temporary Quarters for 1t.
The question of locating the temporary
quarters of the City Post Office during the CON
struction of the new building at Eleventh street
and Pennsylvania avenue is worrying Post
master General Wanamaker and Postmaster
Sherwood considerably. Bids were opened last
week for the place, the principal ones being the
Cyclorama building, temporary structure ad-
joining the market building, Fifth and X streets,
and another one on G street, between Sixth and
Seventh streets. Postmaster General Wana-
maker and Capt. Sherwood inspected the vari-
GUS places last week, but it is believed that
none of the sites pleased them. Capt. Sher-
wood on Friday waited on the District Com
missoners to see about erecting a temporary
frame structure on the reservation in front of
the Centre Market The present structure is
totally unfit for occupation, and the wonder is
that the employees have held up so long in the
old rockery. When the post office first took
possession the rent was $4,000 per annum, then
it was raised to $4,000, and now it said the
owners want S12 900, which is regarded as far
above its real value. A temporary building
could be erected, in the opinion of the officials,
at cost of $4,000 that would be adequate for
all purposes and in the end would be big
saving to the Government. The city office
people are of the opinion that they will remain
where they are for some time yet.

His views were broad and sound; his arguments

other things he said: ''Nothing has changed

1t if it should shove the freecoinage issue
to the front and make the reform of the
tariff secondary consideration. The more the
question is considered in all its bearings in the
quiet Of the Congressional vacation, when the
silver lobby is no longer able to influence or
befuddle the minds OF statesmen, the more clear
Ii seems to become to Democrats who at first
believed Mr.. Cleveland had made fatal mis-
take in writing his silver letter that in reality
he performed one of the wisest acts of his
career. Very significant, for instance, as show
ing the new feeling abroad on the subject of
Cleveland and his silver letter, is a communi-
cation sent by Representative "Buck" Kilgore
to the Galveston Ne,cs. In this, after declar-
ing that he finds few Hill men among Texas
Democrats, Mr.. Kilgore asserts that Cleve-
land is the strongest man for the race in 1892
and that the issue of tariff reform must be kept
steadily to the front. In conclusion he says:
"The party has plenty of material from which
to select its candidates, but Mr.. Cleveland has
been tried He has been found to be true, able,
pure, and brave-in perfect harmony with the
Democracy upon the great and fundamental
issues upon which the party has fought thou

Those Democrats from the South and West
who did not give way to violent expressions of
hostile opinion when Mr. Cleveland sent out
his anti-free coinage letter have daily more
and more reason to congratulate themselves
that they chose the gold of silence on that occa-
sion. The cry for free coinage which kept the
echoes of the Capitol throbbing all through the
session has died down almost to silence. Faint
murmurs of it only are heard here and there
