Suggestion to the RefOrmers.
Philadelphia Press.

The civil service reformers Of Indianapo-
lis are I'm a state of extreme indignation
over the threatened removal of Postmaster
Thompson, of that city. and the appoint
ment of some Democratic henchman to the
office. There are no charges of incompe-
tency or of any nature against Mr.. Thomp-
son. He has been in the postofice in one
capacity or another since 1865, except the
time the late Aquilla Jones was allowed by
Mr.. Cleveland to run his fantastic career.
The Civil Service Commission has reported
Thompson is one of the best conducted in
the country, and that in it's management
the civil service rules are rigidly observed.
But Notwithstanding all these facts Sena-
tors Voorhees, and Turpie and Representa-
tive Bynum want the patronage of the
they will get it, particularly if Mr.. Cleve-
land desires to purchase support for any
bill he wants Congress to pass. The civil
service reformers might as well make a
note on this point and quiet their heaving

What the Senate Committee Knows.
Washington Special.

The committee is in possession Of facts
showing that the Canadian government is
making a strong effort to enter into close
commercial relations with the provisional
government of the Hawaiian Islands. The
Canadian authorities seem to think that
because President Cleveland has insulted
the provisional government and made a
ridiculous attempt to restore the Queen
that the Hawaiian government will now
be ready to enter into a commercial treaty
with Canada and seek the protection OF
Great britain. A Canadian line OF steam
ships already runs from Vancouver to
Honolulu, and a project is on foot now for
a cable from the same points. 1t will not
be surprising if the Canadian government
accomplishes its purpose. If so, IL will
probably pass n vote of thanks to President
Cleveland and Secretary Gresham.

A large meeting of business men was
held in Cincinnati on Wednesday TO protest
against the passage OF the Wilson bill. The
following resolution was adopted:
Resolved. That as representatives OF the
leading Industrial and commercial interests
OF Cincinnati and the tributary region we
enter our earnest protests against the adop-
ton OF 50 radical a measure at this critical
time. We believe that such legislation would
not enlarge American markets and increase
revenues. as claimed. but. on the contrary.
that IL would seriously reduce the revenues
OF the government and cripple nearly every
branch OF manufacturing in the great cen
trail West. We are certain that IL would
alter the manner and life OF American
workingmen and endanger their earnings.
We believe that the sentiment OF wage
earners. manufacturers and merchants,
without regard TO party lines. Is now prac-
tically unanimous against the passage OF
this extreme bill, and We therefore urge the
adoption OF such measures as will give
prompt and fun expression OF this senti-
ment TO the Senators and Representatives
In Congress from Ohio and adjacent States.
A committee was appointed representing
different branches OF trade TO circulate pc
titions for the signatures OF wage earners
protesting against the passage Of the bill.

to be in such a delicate state of heath
that he has been ordered to the south OF
Russia to undergo cure in the genial
