The AIger Scheme.

The participation of certain Michi-

Gently held in Indiana to oppose Har-

purpose. Alger is for Blaine. His
active agents are for Blaine. But he
knows that Blaine is physically in
capable Of undergoing the ordeal If
it were not matter of general con-
viction among the Republicans that
the Maine man is not in it, there
would be no occasion to plot in secret
to give him the nomination. An
authentic and clear intimation from
him that he has physical vigor, and
will take the nomination, would prob
ably leave him a clear field for the
nomination, iii spite of any efforts Of
Harrison or others to get into the
ring. There is no reason to believe
that Blaine has abandoned all hopes
in that direction, being persuaded
ludG Iuc eACiJSlltut anu ueiudiluo vi
the candidacy upon SO intense a ma
ture would break him down, and pro
ably end his life. He would rather
be a living citizen than a dead candi
date. But it is quite possible fol
Blaine to do most potent suggesting
as to the selection. His special friends
are largely opposed to Harrison Then
il Alger expects to be in the field
himself, his present policy may be to
work the Blaine racket. Still, the in

THE reports which have been going
the rounds like wheat straw in Kan
sas whirlwind that the State board
had reduced railroad assessments for
the year 1891 333 per cent from the
assessment of last year are now denl-
ed and are declared to be without
any foundation whatever. The denial
was long time coming but it brings
satisfaction to the poor taxpayers
who were complaining that they we're
being taxed to the uttermost farthing
while railroads we're favored with re-
auctions. 1t is further stated that
railroad assessments are now to be
made by county assessors instead of
the State board and that the State
board sits only as board of equaliza-
ton, and this may be So as the laws
of the State are only known to a fav-

Teoabls Expeetsd n Narnn.

According to private advices received
in San Francisco, the people of Mexico
have been only waiting to hear OF tbs sue
cess of the Chilean insurgents to start q
revolution OF their own.
The indictment these Mexican maloon-
tents bring against President Diaz Is
enough, if it is true, to justify an armed
revolt 1t is charged that Diaz is the
Balmacsds Of Mexico, and is guilty of
many offences against human liber-y. He
has suppressed free speech and free
pIess. be has collected taxes and used
public money unlswfuily. He has put to
death Independent journalists, and i'm
prisoned others In point Of fact, he has
made himself dictator, and has amassed
great wealth BY accepting brides from
foreign corporations for valuable oonoes
sions.
The masses are Catholics and members
OF the clerical party, while Diaz heads the
liberal party and is married to an Areri-
lean Protestant. The president and his
followers, including the soldiers, are in a
hopeless minority, but they believe that
by suppressing the first outbreak Of the
revolutionists with great slaughter, they
will terrorize the people and remain in
power. All sorts of rumors are In circula-
tion, and If there is any truth in them, the
elericals are getting ready for general
instruction at an early day.
There are many reasons why a revoIu-
ton in Mexico should be of peculiar in
terest TO us at the present time. Tboun-
ands OF Americans are settled or engaged
in business across the Rio Grande. They
are running the railroads there, and much
Of their capital is invested in various en-
terprises in toat country. A civil war
would endanger American life and proD-
erty, and our government would perhans
be forced to interfere in behalf of its citi-
zens. Thirty or forty years ago the stu
alton was altogether different, Our
Mexican neighboFs then lived apart from
us and our relations with them were by
no means so Intimate as they are now.
Their periodical revOlutiOns--their throat
emitting and -lOOting-bothersd us
no more than their bull fights and fam
dangOes. But that sort Of thing win NOT
do now. We have big interests down
there, and Mexico is, so to speak, our
backyard, right under our noses. Coca
sionally We can stand small disturbance
an orderly change of government over
the border, but we cannot afford to per-
NIT the revival of the old conditions Of
strife and barbarism.
1t is TO be hoped that the San Francisco
story will turn out TO DO greatly exagger-
ated. In the meantime, our government
should be ready to protect its citizens. =.

THE POSTAL SERVICE.
JOHN wASAMAKER WRITES A PERSONAL
LETTER TO CAPT. ALEXANDER.

JOHN wASAMAKER WRITES A PERSONAL
LETTER TO CAPT. ALEXANDER.
Postmaster Alexander received yester-
day circular letter from Postmaster
General John Wanamaker.
This letter is addressed to the postmas-
tiers at the county seats throughout the
country, and its object is to enlist the
postmasters in plan to improve the
postal service.
Each postmaster at the county seats is
asked to visit each postoffice within the
county in which he lives, to gather infor-
nation regarding the condition of those
pOstOfices.
The department, says Mr.. Wanamaker.
has no means at hand to meet any ex-
pense, and the postmasters are asked TO-
do the work as voluntary off ring for
the good of the postal service. 1t is the
only means by which the department can
make general examination of the bust
ness of the offices, because the inspection
division is fully occupied with cases of
depredatiOns, frauds on the government
and the public, insufficient sureties, miss
ing mail matter and lottery cases.
1t is proposed to give to each postofice
a standing ON the records of the depart
ment according to the marking put on
the paper by the inspecting postmaster
There will be five grades of offices.
Perfect, excellent, good, falr and poor,
and at the end of each fiscal year the
postmaster general win report to the
president those who rate the highest for
such honorable mention as he may see fit
to make.
Concluding, the postmaster general
says; "If we can all become better off.
cials the country viii quickly feel the
effect OF the improved service, however,
much we have done. There are none
who cannot do still better. 1t is my pur-
pose to find ont and help each man who
wants his town or neighborhood to have
better postal facilities"
