WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.-The president sent
the following letter Of instruction 10 the
heads Of the several executive departments
of the governments: Tin my message to the
irst session of the Fifty-frst congress, l
said, 4 have suggested to tho heads OF the
executive departments that they consider
whether a record might not be kept IN each
bureau of all those elements that are GOV
cred by the terms 'faithfulness' and 'ethci-
ENJOY and u rating made showing the rela-
tive merits of the clerks of each class, this
rating to be regarded as a test OF merit IN
making promotions 1t is intended to
make provision for carrying into effect the
stipulation of the OWL service law in lela-
ton to promotion in the classified service.
To tnat mi the rule requiring compulsory
examination has been r%escinded. In my
opinion, examination for the promotion OF
those who present themselves should be
chiefly, if not wholly, upon their knowledge
of the work of the bureau or department. to
which they belong, and their record Of eff
t~iciency made by them during their previous
think records of efficiency kept
from day to day, should be open to the in
spection of clerks.o

WASHINGTON. Dec. 6.-Secretary Noble
has decided the long contested case OF the
Las Vegas grant in New Mexico. The Sec
rotary decided that he grant was not an
absolute grant to the parties originally
named therein, but was for the benefit only
of those to whom lands were allotted there
under; that the grant was confirmed by con-
gress to the tow of Las Vegas, and that no
gu stion would be considered as to the ca
pacity of the own to take it under the con-
tirmatory act; that only such andsp passed
under the 8 ant as have been allotted and
were in possession of occupants at the time
the United States acquired New Mexico.
and that a survey shall be made of such
tracts and patent therefor issue to Las
Vegas for the benefit of those who may be
entitled to them. All lands that had not
passed in this manner at the time of the
acquisition of New Mexico thereby became
public lands. subject to entry and settle
ment under the general laws. His decision.
it is thought, will open to settlement $4,000
acres.

Is THIS FOR A SUGGESTION
The policy Of the republican party tc
steal what it cannot fairly win has long
been an unwritten plank in their plat
form and at times has beer carried on
with temporary success. They stole
the presidency in 1876; they looted our
own state of Montana by placing two
usurpers in senatorial chairs and now
they are looking about for other booty.
With the hopelessness OF future success
before them, the republican leaders have
dropped back on their majority in the
United States senate to carry out their
thefts. For instance, We find this re-
markable suggestion in tho Rochester
Democrat and Chronicle, one of the
ablest and most respectable republican
journals in the Empire state.
David B. HILL" says the Democrat,
SHOULD never be allowed to represent
the state Of New York, which he has
disgraced and defrauded. in the senate
of the United States. There should go
down to Washington such an indictment
of this man and such a protest against
the acceptance of his credentials as will
convince that body that he is unfit to
represent a free and law.abiding com
monwealth. The senate is judge Of the
qualifications Of it's members and Hill
should be shut out as a man dangerous to
republican institutions, as a nsurper of
the powers of the supreme court, as an
agent for the reversal of the will of the
people as declared at the ballot box, as
the oppressor of public officials to CON-
pei them to violate their oaths of Office"
Surely this is a remarkable editorial
utterance in an American newspaper.
Not one word rejecting on the legality
