THE President has at last found
man to suit him for pension commits
sioner, and has sent to the Senate
for confirmation the name OF Judge
Thomas Lockren, Of Minnesota.
Judge Lockreu has been a circuit
judge for twelve years. This is in his
favor, for he has in that time doubt
less acquired an experience that will
be OF great benefit to him in his new
position. He was recommended for
the place by the Minnesota Legisla-
ture, a Republican body. This is
against him, for the Republican rec
ord on pensions is so notorious that
the people want to see ali sxset re-
versal OF their policy and desire no
recommendation from that party.
Judge Locbren was a brave Union
soldier himself. We hope he has
plenty OF backbone, knows humbug
when he sees it, and will do his duty.

TIE Secretary of Agriculture seems
u be an excellent business man, what
ever his ability as farmer. He is
getting his department down to a
business basis by dispensing with
hundreds of useless employees. Last
week he abolished an entire division,
the chief OF which was Robert Blaine,
brother OF the late James Or. Blaine.
AMONG the nominations this week
by President Cleveland are the follow
ing: Thomas Lochren, of Minnesota,
commissioner Of pensions; Edward
II. Strobel, OF New York, third as
Sistant Secretary of State; Daniel n.
Morgan, treasurer Of the United
States; Conrad n. Jordan, assistant

THE work of uncovering crooked
practices Of government officials in
Washington goes bravely on. The
gentlemen who have been running
the weather bureau have a record al
most equal to that of the forty
thieves. They have stolen furniture
and put it in their own homes. They
have purloined pens, pencils, paper,
books, type, machinery, carpets, rugs,
etc, in large quantities, sold the stuff
and put the money in their pockets.
The captain OF the night watch even
stole the granite steps of the building
and sold them. lisa pretty bad mess,
but it will soon be cleared out.

Chin Kow Toy, nice, smooth-looking
little hignbinder, who was arrested by
Officer Wilson on Wednesday night as
he was preparing to take a shot at Wong
Chuey, is still in the City Jail, where he
is unhappy. Last night he was calling
loudly from his cell for attention, and
when trusty went to him he passed out
a letter addressed to Sun Kim Gee. pa
street, and offered to pay for its delivery
The letter, written in pencil on brown
paper, was turned over to Jailer Naghel
and was Interpreted later by one of the
Bing Kong longs, rival faction. The
writer, Chin kow Toy, asked his COM
pany, the Chez Kong longs, to come and
bail him out, and-according to the inter-
preter-said he was the man who shot
Hoey Yen Sing, and that he would have
shot Wong Chuey but the officer got him.
Ong zee, another Chinaman who was
arrested with big revolver on his per-
son, is also in the City Jail, and, together
with Chin Kow Toy, is held for examina-
ton for murder.
According to the Interpreter, both these
men are from San Francisco, belong to
The Chez Kong Tong, and have just re-
turned to Sacramento, having run away
after the riot last July.
Fong Duoy Fook, Fong Shun, Chin
kow Toy, Ong Yee and another man,
whose name the interpreter did not know,
were delegation of five sent to Sacra-
mento to shoot Bing Kong Tong men.
'"Thos' IL men all d velly bad high

the letter. ''They come fiom San Flan-
