The story comes from Madison that
the big pulp mill (which was built by
several embers of Glevelands last adj
ministration, and to which Mr.. Cleveland
contributed $4,000 is not blooming
success. The Hon. William G. Whitney
was President and he selected for gen
eral manager Capt. Goodrich of the navy.
Goodrich knew nothing about pulp or
pulp making, but he went ahead and
built mill according TO his own notion
of what a pulp mill should be. The
buildings proved to be very badly adapt
ed to the purpose for which they were
intended, and in consequence the bust
ness of pulp making in them proved any
thing but profitable. Indeed the concern
ran SO far astern that Whitney was
obliged to put mortgage of $4,000 on
the plant. This act opened the ewes of
the stockholders and MIR. Morgan, the
well known banker of New York, who
was one of them demanded 1.-THE resigna-
ton of Mr.. Whitney and installed Mr..
R. S. Hayes, the railroad magnate, as
President. An attempt will now be
made to put the mill on paying basis,
but with whatEsuccess the future alone
can determine. The stockholders are
believed to have lost about all the money
they put into it. Consequently Mr..
Cleveland is about $4,000 poorer and
Mr.. Whitney is good deal out of pocket
This story teaches that politics and
pplp-making are somewhat incompati-

Commissioner Roosevelt has been in
vestigating the Terre Haute postofice
row. His conclusions agree pretty
closely with the general understanding
of the case, The Democratic postmaster
tried to get possession of the postofice
before the civil service examining board
met, in order that he might turn out all
the clerks and appoint all their success
sors without interference. The Republi-
can postmaster tried to keep possession
of the Office long enough to prevent this.
The charge made by Senator Voorhees,,
that the local examining board was par
tial to Republicans, and would not give
Democratic applicants fair chance, Mr..
Roosevelt finds utterly without founda-
ton. The commissioner recommends
that the removal of the Republican clerks
be sustained, but that the postmaster be
compelled to appoint their successors
from men who have passed the civil ser
vice eKamination, Like all of Mr.. Roose-
yelt's reports, this ione is strictly impair
tial, sparing neither Democrats nor Re-
puhlicans when he thinks they have vio-
lated Or eyaded the provisions Of the
civil service law.
