A Paderewski Incident.

A Baltimore schoolgirl, the daughter Of a

to make a call on the great pianist. They

that she would go up to his room and knock

Making a Raise of Salary.

There's certain business man in Chicago
who is as cranky as he can we'll be and is at
the same time very careless in his business
affairs, says the Detroit Free Press. But he
is very rich and has a big establishment and
not an employee likes him. About year ago
one of his clerks. getting 81 900 year APP
preached him on the subject of an increase of
salary. The old man got hot in a minute
How much are you getting now" he
asked.
The clerk was about to tell him when a
happy thought struck him.
Two thousand year he replied firmly.
"Umum,' he said, you are good clerk
and III see what can be done for you"
Then he dismissed the clerk and called in
the manager
Make Jones' salary 81 800 year" he said
The manager was about to offer an explain
alton.
DO as tell you" said the old man. I'm
teach the young upstart to come in here die
tating to me how much money to pay my
people,
BY this time the manager had compre-
hended the situation and he forthwith put
Jones on the 81, 800 list. and six months later,
when the old man found how he had been
worked, he called Jones in and told him he
would restore him to the 81 000 list, and Jones
was shrewd enough to take the twinkle in the
old mans eye in good faith and say nothing.

car1isle,s Clam Sweep.

The great majority of the chiefs OF
divisions in the treasury department are
republicans They are not in the classified
service and hence il is not a violation of
the civil service rules to remove them.
Some Of them are being removed by Sec
ra'aly Carlisle on the recommendation, it
is sail, Of Logan Carlisle, the chief clerk
o the department These chiefs Of divis-
ions lrcNmcu Of considerable influence in
the Republican party, and the removal of
any one Of them causes commotion in
the republican camp.
The removal of two or three of them
has caused The republican papers TO cry
on, thar the secretary is violating the
spirit OF ,hc civil service law, and that
he is influenced in the course he is pursu-
ins by Io1an Carlisle. They insist that
The President shall take notice of what
Secretary Carlisle is doing in this mat
ter, and call a halt.
No doubt LOran Carlisle is only o hey
ing Instructions in pointing out to the
secretary the chiefs Of divisions who are
inefficient, or who neglected their duties
during the campaign last fall to engage
in partisan politics. Why should a lot of
republican politicians who are hostile to
the administration, and who take every
favorable opportunity to bring it into dis
repute, be permitted to continue in the
enjoyment of some of the best Offices in
the treasury or any other department.
Some of these chiefs say they have not
been given a reasonable notice that their
services are not desired. Logan Carlisle
is quoted as saying that notice was given
last November loud enough for the whole
country to hear. He is right. Notice
was given at that time that the people
want republican officials dismissed. They
want to get rid of the Republican party
and its belongings.
There are from all accounts hundreds
of men on the pay roll of the treasury de-
partment who do comparatively little
work. Many of them have grown old in
the governments service and no Logger
earn the salary paid them. There is no
good reason why the government work
should be neglected in order that these
men may live at the governments ex-
pense
Secretary Carlisle is a kind-hearted
man and just one, but he is not going to
permit his kindheartedness to stand in
the way of his duty to the public 1t is
his business to see that efficient men oc-
cupy places in his department, and moth
ing the republican papers may say
will deter him from doing what he knows
to be right.
The attack on Logan Carlisle is nothing
more than an attack on Secretary Carlisle
and the President. If the removals go on
Logan Carlisle will be forgotten and the
attacks will be directed at the President.
The spirit of the civil service law will
not be violated but good men will be put
in all the principal Offices, and they will
be democrats.

whatever is said about taking a rest, but
the character of the prescription justiics
the conclusion that the party viii have a
good long rest before il is called again to
take control Of the government.
In his address opening the convention
of the league, Gen. Clarkson said the
party needs new blood new ideas, new
songs, new managers and a good
many other new things. He might
as well have said that the old party
was played out" and that what was
left Of it ought to be utilized in making
what in effect, would be a new party
There is so much that is bad in the party
as it is now that there is not much pros
pect of making anything out of it by doc
toring it with new ideas and providing it
with new blood and new managers.
The Republican party has had it's day
The people no longer have confidence in
its doctrines, nor have they any use for
its leaders. They will let it have a good
long rest-a rest that will not restore its
vigor nor fit it for again taking charge
of the government. It's principles will
cease to arouse enthusiasm and its men,
bers will gradually drop away from it.
Such prescriptions as that given it at
Louisville will do it no good. The declara-
ton in favor of woman's suffrage may
bring few such women as Mrs. Lease to
its assistance, but they cannot help it.
The disease with which it is afflicted will
insure it a very long rest.

Kolb Again in the Field.

1t is good while before the next
gubernatorial election in Alabama, but
Mr. Kolb, the boiling democratic candi-
thinks that it is none too soon to announce
that he will be a candidate.
Mr.. Kolb has staying qualities, if no
other. He evidently believes that if he
keeps on trying he will eventually succeed
in getting the governorship.
The record which he has made, how
ever, is very much against him. He has
incurred the bitter opposition of a very
large percentage of the most prominent
democrats of the state by his political
course and at this time it does not seem
probable that he can ever succeed in get
ting the nomination for governor from the
Democratic party If he should run as
an Independent he would be defeated
again, because the regular democracy is
stronger now than it has been in several
years. Many of those who supported Mr.
Kolb at the last election cannot be de-
pended upon to support him at
the next. The election of
Mr.. Cleveland has had the
effect of strengthening the desire among
the democrats for the continued ascend
cncy of the Democratic party in all the
southern states, and when Mr. Kolb gets
ready for another campaign for governor
he will not find nearly so many of the
stanch democrats of his state supporting
him as there was at the last state cleo
ton.
There seems to be good ground for say
ing that the Kolb faction is steadily losing
ground. Gov. Jones is giving the
state good government, and the
people are satisfied with him
Many OF those who have heretofore
been warm supporters of Mr. Kolb arc
now convinced, it is said, that his cleo
ton would have been a mistake. He
would have done things that would nos
have been approved by the people, and
he would have insisted upon a policy that
would have been hurtful to the best in
terests of the state
1t appears to give Mr.. Kelb a great zeal
of pleasure, however to be candidate
for governor, even if he does NOS have the
Endorsement OF The Democratic party.
Many OF his supporters, it is believed,
do not get as much satisfaction
out of the fight with the
regular democracy as they thought they
would, and, hence, they are all getting
back within the lines of the regular de
mocracy. Mr. Kolb viii lind that his
faction is an insignificant one by the time
another gubcnatorial election IS undcr-
taken. The wisest thing for him to do is
to abandon the fight on the lines he has
been conducting it and set back into his
party with all reasona bic haste If he does
that his party may forgive him in rea-
( sonable time, and even assist him to
| crafty his ambition. But the policy he
| is now pursuing is certain to bring him
/ only disappointment.

A Hot But Short Fight.

4 had dog that followed me all through
the war, and was of great service TO no.
said Capt. Fred Smith to ST. Louis Globe
Democrat man. He was just a common
'Ornery looking yaller dog, but he had the
heart Of a woman and the courage Of a lion.
I enlisted at Nation, and the dog followed
me there. l sent him back homo. but he
wouldn't stay. The captain took a liking to
Zip. and when we were ordered south he went
along. Zip participated in several OF the big
battles Of the war and in any numCer OF
skirmishes. He would take up his position
near our battery of field pieces and bark def
ance at the enemies OF his country. At Shiloh
a shell exploded within 10 feet OF Zip. cutting
on three inches of his bushy tail. That
angered him and he advanced on the
enemy barking furiOusly. The lines were
about 800 yards apart and shot and shell
were flying thick as hail. Zip ran forward
fully 300 yards and gave the JOhnnies to dis
tlnctly understand that he allowed no tamger-
ing with his tail. 2 he confederate battery
also had dog-a big. iank mastiff-and he
came out to see about it. They didn't waste
any time sparring for an opening nut took
mold IN dead earnest The Johnnifs stopped
sn0otlng ana PECAN TO cheer their dog. We
did the same. For fully ton minutes those
two batteries stood silent while the gunners
watched the contest of the canine knights,
who fought as though the fate of ma tions de
pended on them. Sick him, Tige; Give it to
the yankee sOn-Ofa-gun. yelled the cOnfed-
crate CannOneerS, advancing in front of
their guns Go it. Zip Rip him to ribbons
ZIP. we yelled also advancing well in front
OF our lines \ confederate sergeant threw y
rock at our dog and that brought on trouble.
Keep your hands off that dog yelled the
captain of our blAtery, as he hurried back
and trained gun on the confederate group.
That set both batteries to roaring again. and
beneath the flock Of iron those dogs fought
on; l am sorry to say that Zip got the worst
OF II. He was Out-classed, and, though he put
up as game a fight as ever dog did. he was
sent to his corner loser. How the confeds did
yell and boot and howl. But we had our re-
venSe. We threw xpound shell into
their dog and blew him into sausage meat"
