defeated ones moved that the nomination
OF the successful man should be made
unanimous. This was carried, and the
name OF the successful nominee received
the appointment from the department
here.
GOVERNMENT CLERKS DEMoRA-
LIKED.
While talking to the postmaster general
the other day the subject OF government
clerks came up, and asked him whether
ne would advise young men TO try to get
Places under the government. He replied
that ne would not, and said that the short
hours and the work seemed 10 demoralize
the employees Said he.

work here are Injurious TO character The

Al this point the conversation turned to
president Cleveland and the postmaster
general chatted Interestingly OF his early
association with him. 1t Ia now nearly
twenty years since the two began their
practice in the law together at Buffalo,
IN connection with Mr.. Lyman X Bass
who had been a member of congress. Mr..
Bass left the firm In 1875, and from that
time on it went under the name OF Cleve-
land & Bissell. In speaking OF Il said:

as to the other months of this fall. The
result rs that the appropriations VIII not
equal the expenses, and the postmaster
general Ia having his hands fun in trying
to make the ends meet.
UNCLE SANS ECONOMY.
II is interesting TO note how the post
master general is eoouomlzing In big
business like that OF the postoftioe II Is the
little things that count and $4,000 has
Just been saved by cutting on an order for
1000 900. 900 Of the big Columbian stamps.
There rs little difference between the ordi-
nary 2-cent stamp and the Columbian
stamp In size, but the difference Is big
enough TO make the Columbian stamp cost
Just about one hundredth OF q cent more
than the red stamp. The Columbian
stamps cost Just about II cents thous-
and, while the red stamps cost only ~
cents thousand
The change means q saving OF 10 cents
on every thousand stamps, and 500. 900
on million stamps The last adminis-
tration made contract for 5000, 0Qo, 900 OF
these stamps at n cents per 1000. II was
thought that there would DO a great de-
mand for them. but they did not sell The
people did not want them and II was 20
the interest OF the department to be re-
leased from their contract. After consld-
cradle negotiation tho American Bank
Note company agreed TO let the poftmas-
ter general on from the last billion he

THE HARD TIMES AFFECT THE POST
OFFICES.
The postmaster general finds Il impera-
tive to reduce our postal expenses The
hard times have considerably lessened the
postal revenue There Is no business bar
ometer more sensitive than the postorfioe.
The mail Increases or decreases In proper
ton to the amount Of business done, and "a
rs safe 20 say that there has not for years
been such radical falling OF in postal re-
cclpts For the past thirty or forty years
there has been an average increase OF
nbout per cent a year In the postal rev.
enuc over that Of the year preceding This
Increase has been so regular that when
congress has made It's appropriations ~
has allowed for IT, n did that last year.
Wen, the revenue went along all right
up TO the list OF June, and during the first
three months of Mr.. nlssell's term the per.
centage OF increase was moro than per
cent over the receipts OF the corresponding
months OF last year, In July the hard
times began and the percentage OF increase
dropped during that month from 3 per
cent 10 Q per cent At the close OF August
Il waA found that the receipts We're I per
cent less than they We're during the Au-
gust Of 1872 This was a decrease OF n

THE NEW POSTAL CARDS.
Another economy has just been lnaugu-
rated in the making OF the postal cards.
During the past few years we have been
using three different styles OF cards. There
was little white card for cent for the
ladies', yellow barn door at the same
price for the big business man, and mid
dle-siged card for general use, II has cost
considerably more TO make the three diff
ferent styles than enc, and the postmaster
general has decided to use but one card,
and the one :xed upon Is OF the same size
usey by the International Postal Union,
and postal cards will now be the same all
the world over. We use such an immense
quantity OF these cards that the saving
in the new contract amounts to $4,000 a
year. The contract Is made for four years
and the total saving win thus be $3.50 900.
Il is l-cent business, but the saving
means a fortune,

orders have been issued and paid for. but
the money has not been called for az the
other end. Either the orders have been
lost or stolen. or the parties receiving
them have failed to collect them. These

REVISION OF THE TARIFF.
Industrial Interests Improving Under
Democratic Rule.

lnoustr1al interests Improving Onoef
Democratic Rule
Reports from various manufacturing
centers of the country show how hypo-
critical was the cry raised during the
campaign of last fau, that an adoption
OF the democratic tariff idea meant a
virtual humiliation of our great indus
trial interests The Carnegies are ex-
pending some two million dollars in the
enlargement and improvement OF their
great plant at Homestead, and sig
nificant feature in the case is the fact
that a largely increased producing ca
pacity in several departments is among
the contemplated changes. All the
vast sum to be expended Is with view
to meeting greatly increased demand
Like faith in the business future is
manifest from other important locali-
ties. and all this despite the terrible
disasters that the people were tolC
would follow, upon a retirement of the
republican party from power. It is well
understood that in the coming revision
the iron and steel schedule of the tariff
| viii be changed throughout. 1t is the
expectation among the producers them
selves that iron ore Will be placed upon
the free list and that the duty upon pig
| iron Will be greatly reduced 1t is also
anticipated SnaC from the DUTY on the
finished products there will be taken
| considerable portion in addition to that
corresponding to the reduction upon
the raw material
The manufacturers understand, as
! they have understood all along. that
such revision of the tariff will not
render 1t impossible for them to do
business on profitable basis. On the
other hand. many of them are satisfied
that their business will be improved by
the increased demand for their products
They are convinced that all existing
difficulties will receive due considera-
ton, and that the revision viii be so
made by congress that they may adjust
themselves to the changing situation.
| They as well as the consumers Will be
benefited by the proposed changes, and
the engagements are being made only

which will result from the practical APP
plication of democratic principles as
affecting the tariff question--Detroit

Prominent among the big buildings
at the fair is the huge refrigerator or
cold storage pavilion, which is located
on the extreme western confines of the
grounds and just back of the Transpor-
tation building. In this building will
be kept all the perishable goods, such
as meats, vegeta bles, etc, for use in the
restaurants at the fair. It will be a very
complete building in every respect for
the purpose, and in addition to its other
features it will contain, upon the top
floor, skating rink eighty-fve by one
hundred and eighty feet in extent.
where, during the hot summer months,
visitors may indulge in the novel and
refreshing pastime of skating on the ice
while the thermometer is doing its best
to melt and boil the mercury on the
outside.
To the average citizen the process of
ice-malzing is profound mystery, and
through lack of opportunity he has been
unable to enlighten himself on this
most interesting industry. Here ne will
be afforded an excellent chance to
study the thing in detail, and the stu
dent of refrigeration will find in opera
ton every process for the preservation
of foods that has been approved by ex-
perts.
The capacity of the ice machines will
be one hundred and twenty tons day,
and the storage rooms viii accommo-
date over five hundred car loads of per-
ishable food. From this it will be seen
that there will be no necessity of drink
ing warm water or eating melted but
ter in the fair grounds.
One of the greatest conveniences at
jackson park is the elevated railroad,
which is rapidly approaching compile
ton. This road winds in and out
among the great buildings and reaches
every part of the grounds For aged
persons and those who are too frail or
feeble to travel about afoot this line
will be a great convenience. At a
trif1ing cost they can be quickly trans
ported from one point to another, or
ride about the entire grounds and OBJ
tain better views of the buildings than
can be obtained from the ground.

The repu bhcan organs ought to
deal very leniently with the rush of of

the latter they call it ''nepotism-"-

roomy and convenient spot for the
erection of the platform for the use of
President Cleveland and the other Off
Gals who are to take part in the open
ing exercises. This platform will be
connected with Machinery hall so that
from the speakers table the president
will have no difficulty in starting the
huge wheels in their revolutions. The
new plan affords many opportunities
for picturesque effects, as the position
commands the water front and many of
the finer pieces of statuary, and will en-
able thousands of spectators to get a
fine view of the exercises. AS far as
can be learned at this time this arrange
ment has been definitely settled upon
