THEY WILL ALL STAY IN.

All republican officials who hold COM
missions for four years will be allowed
to remain undisturbed by PRESIDENT
CLEVELAND until their terms expire.
This is the determination to which the
president has come, and he has an
nounced it to his friends. In taking this
step he returns to the practice which he
followed eight years ago, but which was
really inaugurated previously by PREsI-
DENT HAYES. 1t was observed with con-
siderable fidelity by PRESIDENT HARRI-
SON and will now be put into strict
execution.
The rule will not apply, of course, to
foreign appointments nor to positions in
the departments. Its enforcement will
enable the president to consider the ques-
ton of appointments as vacancies occur,
and will relieve him Of the crush which
he would necessarily have to endure if he
undertook to make a complete change in
the first year of his administration.
The above from the Washington Post
shows two things:
First, that CLEVELAND proposes to be
| business from the shoulder, and keep the
spectacular from his work. 1t shows
that he expects to analyze the character
and fully understand the motive and
method of the patriot who calls upon him.
He does not propose to impulsively
and foolishly supplant a competent re-
ocratic politician. He wants to know,
acting as he is for the constituency of
all localities, whether or not petitions
were obtained in the general way" or
whether people had seriously considered
the propositions suggested to him
In the second place it brings forth a
bleeding of hearts and a universal Pant
on the part of thousands of applicants.
Take it here, for instance, in Durham /:
1t is universally conceded that COLONEL
ALBRIGHT is obliging, courteous and
competent, and it would indeed be a silly
ass who would attempt to prefer charges
against him. His commission does not
expire until next January, and if what
GROVER says goes" and of course it
will, the train of gentlemen who lie
awake at nights planning schemes to
step in his brogans had better secure, at
once, a bottle of DIR. PETE BRIGGs' cele-
brated cure for insomnia.
1t really seems that there are Turf
Times ahead, and the pitch is not as hot
as it should be.
Will the numerously signed petitions
grow musty will Patience lose it's vir-
tue, and will our dear yet devoted friend,
the Salter advertise our mutual UNCLE
GROVER as a low-grade scoundrel.

selves-they would let loose of the S if a
puff was in sight.
Among some ninety six subscribers
which we secured for a book which at
one time we proposed to write, each man
to pay not less than S. for his copy, a
note from one of the members reads, on
legislative paper:
Mr.. FARE Bros:
AS we was a speakin about that air
book, | have decided that l would ray
thur pay you ten dollars 1O extra and
have my pictur put in it than not to have
my pictur put in it as l want the folks
over the state to see that - county
dident send no dam fool down here to
Raleigh. -
Well, we concluded that there was a
place to call a halt. Another member
who had "swollen with pride" and who
gave US a $40 order, was accused by a
dying woman of seducing her-and we
rung off.
But as to the subject. SO long as men
run for the legislature and are elected
simply because they want a job for the
winter-because they see a little money
in it-well, there will be no legislature.
1t will cost any man who is capable of
making laws a cool thousand dollars to
be a member. His business must suffer
and if he has no business, it is five to
one that he cannot do business for others.

When you pledged me your love.
A brooklet, I remember now.
Was babbling almost at our feet,
think a pink and yellow COW
Was grazing just across the street.
There were some things 1 did not see,
At least that freckle On your nose,
Your wig it was unknown to me
AS were the corns upon your toes.
No defect could I see to mar
The lovely form l did admire
And yet twas cotton by the car
AdrOitly woven Upon wire
And yet you doubtless thought, alas:
1t was a man who called you dove,
You did not know he was an ass
When you pledged him your love!
And the judge granted her all the alimony
that she wanted.
We do not care to enter into personalities,
but we desire to state to Col. J. w. Down
that if he does not like our chin whiskers he
may have the pleasure of trying to pull them

1t is related that Col. C. A. JORDAN is about
to import several Red Polar Bears. We think
that the quarantine regulations should be APP

THE BALL.

And now all the papers are describing
the beautiful and wonderful maidens
and matrOns who attended the inaugural
ball.
1t appears that to attend such a dance
is more of an honor and distinction than
it was for Miss FoLLINsBEE to 60 down
the middle with the man that shot SANDY
MCGEE.
In fancy we can see GENERAL GEORGE
WASHINGTON, and his good wife MAR
TIA, dancing jigs and the devils horn.
pipe-waltzing to the enhancing strains
of cat-gut music-of how GEORGE in
his knee-breeches jumped up and cracked
his heels in the air-and in those days
this may have been a time.
But just why the inaugural ceremonies
of a president-the chief magistrate of
the United States should be made the oc,
casion for a great display of dresses and
finery, we cannot imagine.
The president is not for a few chosen
and fortunate ones-and why a few cho-
sen and fortunate ones should insist upon
turning such a solemn affair into sounds
of revelry by highland bringing all the
beauty and chivalry into the nations
capital-(at so much per ticket we do
not know.
And we write this assuring all con-
cerned that we had our claw-hammer
and spike,tailed coat with us.

Changing ChIrograplly.

The changes in fashionable hand
writing during the past ten years have
been marked. Young girls of to-day
write in large and usually firm char
acters, while surprising number of
young men, not trained to clerlsliness
and struggling between several recog-
nized standards of u good masculine
handwriting, produce letters of singu-
larly childish style ofpenmanship. But
leaving out these conditions of youth
and transition with their more or less
fascinating suggestions of equal
change in the intellectual fashions of
young men and maidens, there is an
inexhaustible interest In the study
of mature handwriting, from the
point of view of the subtle
clairvoyant interviewer of other
peoples minds and methods, For
example, most literary men nova
days write small hand. The phrase
literary men is very sweeping in this
connection and is by no means limited
to the producers of pure literature in
this country, In that case there
would be next to nothing to say, es-
pecially if the literature produced was
restricted to that genuinely imbued
with style. Literary men in this
sense means also all men who have
the power and also most surprising
knack in returning to others of the
era 1t their own ambitious productions,

THE mopIFIED MICROBES.

Has Dr. Dibble gone to Cincinnstia We find in the Times-Star of that city an in- terview with physician, who says: Every thing is full of germs or crusted with them, but every germ is not harmful. Every dis ease germ on the body does not produce a disease. If 1t did there would not be 8 person on the face of the earth to morrow. People lived before disease germs were known and were as healthy as they are to- day. They lived as carefully as we dc perhaps more so. We cannot avoid con- tact with disease germs, but We can do what Is better, strengthen the body so that it resists them as easily as lion can flea. Some scientists pretend to deplore the lack of precsution people take against germs. It is simply because the people see, despite theories, that every germ doesn't produce sickness any more than every man Is a mur- derer. Every man may possibly be one, but we would not be justified in going armed on that account.
 This isn't as "scary" as come of the utterances of the germ discoverers, but 1t lb COuelstcAt Wltu COuhOu bcuco huu COul- mon experience. The fact eeems to be that ss long as the body is kept in certain condition 1t Is proof against almost any disease germ that may be going around seeking whom it may devour. This fact explains, we suppose, why people can go where the cholera, the smallpox or the yellow fever Is and escape harmless. Others who are not in the right condition fall an easy prey to the microbes. Many people have a curious kind of knowledge that they are able to resist any disease that may be lying in wait for them. Such people feel no fear of disease and they do not need to- Myriads of microbes might attack them and they wouldn't even know 1t.
 When the microbes were first made plain and it was seen that there were biI- lions of them where none had been seen or even suspected before 1t seemed won derful that the human race had not been swept from the earth long ago. It is be- coming evident that they are not as deadly as the scientists thought they were or ought to be. It may yet be discovered that they are really blessings in disguise, and that instead of being foes to life, life would not go on without them.

VICTIM AND VILLAIN.

There are laws to punish the betrayal of trusting maidens by heartless and villain ous men. Such laws are necessary and useful, for there are trusting msidens, and there are heartless and villainous men. But the frequenters of criminal courts hear many tales of woe in which the trusting maidens make 1t more or less plain that they were more trusting than the law allows, and that the heartless and villainous men were almost as much be- guiled as bsguiling. Still, the presump- ton is in favor of the trusting msidens and against the heartless and villsinous men, and so the latter usually get their just deserts.
 It Is well known that the average voter nowadays is like the trusting maiden, and that, like her, he is surrounded by many dangers. The legislature of Indiana four years ago recognized this fact and ponder ing made law to protect the voters virtue and to punish anybody who by seduction and guile might succeed in depriving him of 1t. This law said that any body in In- diana who might bribs voter could be sued for damages and costs by the voter who might be weak enough to yield to the wiles of the bribsr. One voter fell and took ten dollars for his vote. After coming to a realizing sense of his condition he brought suit against the vil- lainous man who was responsible for his downfall for three hundred dollars dam ages. The lower courts held that the man did not come into court with clean hands and could not be allowed to profit by his own wrong doing. But the supreme court upheld the constitutionslity of the law and gave the seduced voter what he asked for.
 This makes the situation in Indiana in- teresting. It is said that there are maid ems who make business of being trusting. It Is possible that some of the voters of Indiana may be too willing to be seduced into receiving money for their vote. The decision will alarm those who have made a business of seducin2 voters in Indiana, and may thus lead to an improvement in the political virtue of the voters of that state. It has sometimes seemed as if there were room for 1t.

Misery and Co.

Misery loves Company. Misery Is 6 briDdled cat and Company is big New foundland dog.
 They were raised and lived very happily for some years In 6 shanty high up on the rocks of @ vacant block in Harlem; bu, times have changed with them now, and they are in fair wsy to become tramps in the wide world of unclaimed cats and dogs.
 Some days ago the people of the shAniy were forced to move away. and black smiths shop was built upon the rocks then a wsgon-load of large steAm-drllls was hoisted up and piled alongside of it; and in a few months & row of tall modern houses will stand In the little thAnty's place.
 When the owners moved avay, they left Misery and Company all alone to take care of thsmselves as bss. they could; and their trial would have begun before now if ii were not for the children In the reighbor hood, who have 60 far kept them supplied with bones and pieces of meat and bread for Company is one of those great, big good nhIureQ uOBe tuaE Npul1 GCL 0Atll "a IOuee, and he has made many friends among the little boys and girls near by, whom he Is always ready to play tsg with, or even to ride around upon his back.
 Daring school hours Misery and Comps. ny pass their time very quietly together, wondering what has become of their own- CTS and wandering about over the rocks in search of them.
 At night they crawl under the shEnty and Misery curls herself up elose against Company and goes to sleep, ss kitten does with its mother.
 Company is always first to wake up in the morning, but he Is careful not 10 dis turb Misery until she begins to stretch her self and is ready to rise; then she walks around him, rubbing herself against hiu and purring, as If to say "Coms, let's take a walk"; and they start of together, side by side, for s rsmble before breakfast.
 As Company's legs are very long, Misery ands 1t hard work to keep step, and 1t fl very funny, as they are trotting along to- gether to see Company looking down side ways at Misery with & great deal of admir- ation but still in q rsproaohful sort of way, ss If he were saying, "Wby don't you keep stepI"
 Although Company never minds however roughly the children msy play with him, he is very jealous and uneasy If any one of them tries to catch Ai.ery; he will then give e gruff kind of bark, which the boys and girls all understand very clearly to mean, ''Thst's my cat and you must be very careful of her"
