DEMOCRATS.

PRESIDENT CLEvELAND's declaration
that none of his former offceholders need
apply carried CONSERVATION to thousands of
gentlemen who were anxious to resume
their employment under the Government,
which had been interrupted four years ago.
There were many thousands others to whom
it brought gladness of heart, for it relieved
them Of the depressing fear that the old fell
lows had the inside track on them. The
country, generally, approves of the policy.
There are several million men in the coun-
try who are quite capable of holding almost
any Office under the Government, and it il
only fair that the places should 20 around
as far as they will Rotation in Office" is
good old Democratic doctrine little as the
disappointed ones may be inclined to think
it.

| Reelected to the present Congress and the
| majority, if not all of them, are candidates
for appointment by President Cleveland.
| One-Hei bert, Of Alabama-has already
been appointed to a place in the Cabinet.
AS to some of the others the veterans have
| a personal interest, as they were Union sol
diers Of good records.
First Is Gen. Walter G.. Newberry, who
| represented one Of the Chicago districts.
He entered the Union army as q private
in the S1st N. Y, became Captain in that
regiment, then Major in the Oath n Z.
Cav, and was mustered out as Colonel OF
the regiment, with hrevet as Brigadier-
General, for gallant conduct at Dinwiddie
Courthouse. He was for short time Post
master at Chicago, under Cleveland. He is
millionaire, and does not need Office, but
his friends think that he would make an
excellent representative for as at Brussels.
Second is Gen. Samuel T. Busey, who
represented in the last Congress the District
so long represented by Hon. j. G. Cannon
He entered the army in 1862 as Second
Lieutenant in the 10Th ILL., He rose to be
Colonel of the regiment, and was brevetted
Brigadier-General for gallantry in leading
the successful assault upon Fort Blakely
He is also very wealthy man, and his
name has been mentioned for several promi-
nent oflices-the strongest pressure, perhaps,
being for Commissioner of Pensions.
The third is L. F. Mckinney, who was a
Representative in the 50th Congress from
the First Districr of New Hampshire, but
was defeated for reelection. He was more
successful the next time he ran, but was
again defeated for the SD Congress He
enlisted in August, 1861, in the LIST Ohio
Cav, and served in it until discharged for
disability in February, 1863. He is min
lister of The gospel, and is strong candidate
for Commissioner OF Pensions. In default
of that he would take the mission to the
United States of Colombia, now held by a
New Hampshire man.
F. E. White, of Iowa, served three years
in the 18th Iowa, is farmer and stock
raiser, and would take any good, pleasant
job in the Presidents gift
Capt. H. II. Wheeler, who defeated Gen.
Byron NJ. Cuteheon in the Ninth District Of
Michigan, and was himself defeated last
Fall, is q strong candidate for Commissioner
of Pensions. He had been working on q
farm and teaching when the war broke ont.
and enlisted in Co. c, 10th Mich, In June,
1862. He was promoted to Second Lieuten-
ant, and finally to Captain. He was severely
wounded in the assault on Buzzard's Roost
Gap In the Atlanta campaign.
A. E. Bushnell, who represented the Third
District of Wisconsin, is a general candidate,
without any defnitely-ontlined place. He
entered the army In August, 1861, as First
Lieutenant in the 7th Wis, and resigned
March 8, 1863. as Captain.

THE makeup Of the Senate Committee
OF Finance lie felt to be the FIRST round in
the inevitable struggle between President
Cleveland and Congress. 1t was CleFelands
wish, and that of the Gold-standardn fac

should be put at the head of this committee.
BE has stood at the head Of the Democratic
minority of the committee for some years.
But he has been put of the committee
entirely, and the Craftsmanship given to Sena-

champion of free silver, but a very luke

FIRST. The payment Of pensions only to those who,
by wounds disability. have been actually disabled
In the service Of their country and to the widows
and orphan children Of such pensioners when in
need.
Second. cutting OF from tho pension roll of
