Form Partnership.
A. B. Lawson, the well-znown de-
tective, and J. E. Bennett, an equally
well-known newspaper man, for several
years connected with the reportorial
staff of the city press, have formed a
partnership in the detective and claim

located in Los Angeles. Mr.. Lawson
will very shor tly devote his attention to
the San Francisco Office, at 16 Mont

Mr.. Lawson will, however, divide his
time between the two cities, coming to
Los Angeles whenever detective work
requires his attention here. Mr.. Ben
nett, in addition to his experience in
newspaper work, is a member of the
Los Angeles bar.
Mr.. Lawson is one of the ablest de-
tectives in the country, and has q most
enviable reputation for integrity and re-

hereabouts, whose best wishes will be
with him in his new venture.

Col. CARROLL D. WRIGHT, Chief of the
National Bureau Of Labor Statistics, has
rendered an important service by reducing
to absolute figures the money difference in
the situation of English and American
workingmen. He finds that, taking the
whole body Of workingmen, the British
laborer receives 81, where his fellow-work-
man in Massachusetts gets $1.70, but that
the latter expends SLIT for food, house
rent, clothing etc, where the British work.
man expends 81. This makes an average
difference of 53 cents in favor of the Ameri-
can. There is no doubt that Col. Wright's
figures are conservative, aud that the differ
ence in favor of the American is actually
much greater.

A ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS BOOK.
Mr.. Marshall Cushing, the accomplished
Private Secretary of Postmaster General
Wanamaker, has written an unusually in
teresting book. entitled "The Story of Our
Postofice, (which is published by A. M.
Thayer & Co., Boston, Mass.
The book relates to the great Postoffce
Department of the United States Govern
ment. 1t is far from being mass Of dry
descriptions and statistics, however, but is a
bright, notwithstanding talk about the
institution in which everybody is interested
and the men and women who run it. Mr..
Cushing is master of a CHEEKY, captivating,
style, which makes everything that he writes
delightful to read.
The book contains 1000 pages, and is
embellished with 500 fine half tone pictures,
made from original photographs taken in
Washington under the personal supervision
of the author, and reproduced in New York
with similar care by the most artistic and
efficient processes.
The different branches Of the Department
are described and illustrated in detail. But
many of the chapters such as those about
the Louisiana Lottery and the green
goods" swindles and the general frauds
perpetrated upon the public through the
mail, to say nothing of the chapters relating
to robberies and smuggling and obscene lit
erature, form not only topics of SURPRISING
interest, but also safeguards for all the
people. Here, again, does the special per-
sonal interest appeal to every man, woman
and child in America.
The book is bound to have very large
sale

States No pains or expense are spared to
secure the very best and most practical in
formation on every subject of importance to
the farmer
Being published at the National Capita

zion and knowledge not possessed by papers

This fact is of much more than usual i'm
poitance 10 the farmers at this time, when
there is so much going on in Congress that
bears directly upon the prosperity Of every
man engaged in tilling the soil. The session
Just opened has already begun the discussion
of measures of the greatest interest to all
farmers, and this will be continued through
out The Winter THE AMERICAN FARMER

every farmer should take the paper to keep
himself properly informed.

NAME THEM.
The Philadelphia Times says:


Tens Of thousands of pension thieves by perjury
and fraud, under the lead of professional shazps
have robbed the deserving veterans and country
Of scores Of millions.
If this be anything like true, why doesn't
the Times show up some Of these rascals ?
Why does it not make its assertions good
and startle the country by publishing lists
of them, and exposing the frauds by which
they gained their places on the roll? The
Times dearly loves sensation, and if it be-
lieved for minute in this stuff, it would not
hesitate to set an army of reporters to work
to unearth the robbers and describe their
criminal methods.
1t need not 60 out of its own city to dis
cover the character of the pensioners and
the justice of their claims The Pension
Agency ut Philadelphia pays out about
$7,500,000 year, and the character of the
men and women who receive this amount is
the same as that at every other Pension
Agency in the country. In place of pub
fishing such startling lies, let the Times send
its reporters to the Pension Agency next
pension day, and thoroughly investigate the
cases of the first 100 or the first 1000 PEN
sioners in the line. We challenge it to do
this. 1t dares not publish the truths that
such an investigation would bring out, fol-
these would give such a contradiction to the
Iimes's lies that 1t would never again have
tho hardihood 70 repeat them.

The latest scheme of the pension haters is
to transfer the Pension Bureau to the War
Department, and it is understood that the
Subcommittee On Appropriations has pre-
pared a rider to the appropriation bill max
ing this change.
The precise effect of this move is indi-
Gated by the fact that it is so vigorously
pressed by soldier haters. No veteran or
friend of the veterans has asked for it or is
supporting it. It finds its suggestion and
advocacy wholly among those who are bitter
and persistent enemies of the veterans and
who would strip them of every manifesto
ton of the Nations justice. This alone is
sufficient reason for bitter hostility to the
measure. It is hardly worth while to out
line what would be the policy of the War
Department toward the pensioners. It is
only necessary to know that the bitterest
enemies the veterans have suggested the
transfer and are working hard to secure it,
If it did not mean an immense injury to the
pensioners these men would not be urging
it.
There can be no sound reason given for
the change. None is attempted to be given
except that the present management is fin
ishing up the work too rapidly, and clearing
off the docket faster than those wish who
hate pensions.

JOURNALISTIC INDECENCY.

The Nashville american claims to be the
leading paper in Tennessee. We give an
extract from its editorial on the death of
Gen. B. F. Butler:
Old Ben Butler Is dead Early yesterday morn
ing the angel Of death. acting under the devils
orders took him from earth and landed him In
bell. In all this southern country there no
tears, no signs and regrets. He lived only too
long. We glad he has at last been removed
from earth and pity the devil the posse ssion
he has secured.
If there is future Of peace I'm store for Ben
Butler after his entrance upon eternity, then there
Is heaven and the Bible is lie. If hell be only
black the good book describes ii, then there
not the degrees of punishment In which some
Christians so firmly believe. He has gone and
from the sentence which has already been passed
Hpon him there is appeal. He is already SO
deep down in the pit Of everlasting doom that he
couldn't get the most powerful ear-trumpet con-
ceivable to scientists and hear the echoes Of old
Gabriers trumpet, or fly a million kites and get q
message to St. Peter who stands guard at heavens
gate.
In our statute books many holidays decreed.
1t was an egregous oversight that one on the
sion of the death OF Ben Butler not fore
ordained The Beast" is dead. The cymbaIs
should beat aud the tin horn should get in it's
work.
This is as outrageous piece of bombast
as ever disgraced the columns of an Amer
lean newspaper. 1t is simply vile, without
redeeming feature; and it is burning
reproach upon the people of Tennessee that
II paper assuming to represent them should
be so loully indecent.

The death of ex-President r. B. Hayes
carries of one of the finest types of the
American volunteer soldier. He was 8
HAendid product Of our form of society and
civilization, man of the people, educated
as they were, thinking as they thought, liv-
Ing as they lived, and feeling as they felt.
BE was genuine American man of the fiber
and strength that our institutions pro-
duce. He went into the army in q
subordinate capacity at the first call
hr troops, and became soldier of the
Brightest merit-steady, reliable. always
ready for duty, always doing that duty with
eourage and intelligence that none could
Eurpsss. BE went into the army solely to
do all that lay in his power to maintain the
Union and suppress the rebellion, and he
bent every effort in that direction. He was
slways alert for any opportunity to advance
Dot sick it. He did his duty so well in
every grade that he was given the next
enc above 1t, and so came out of the war
after four years of splendid service with the
well-earned brevet of Major-General Elk
President Hayes was one Of the most earn
est comrades Of the Grand Army of the Re-
public. He was always, when possible
present with his Post He took the great
sst interest in every proceeding, and few
parades or demonstrations found him absen,
from its ranks, where he marched on foot
With his comrades. His death brings O
grief to every comrades heart.
