,rhe Assistant Postmnster.

An Office that is attracting some
talk now, particularly because an APP
pointment is expected in the near flu
ture. is that of assistant TO Postmaster
Barratt. The fact that Mr. Barratt was
kept out of his office for a long time
under the ruling Of the department
and that the present assistant has
served much longer than ne would
have done if the Republicans had only
been given the four years of office in
stead of nearly six, and the further
fact that Mr.. Barratt's long term as
postmaster has made him familiar
with The conduct of the office and not
in need of technical training, makes it
extremely probable that the change
will come very soon. There is an en-
deavor to bring civil service rules to
bear in the case, but this is not an
office within the civil service, and as
the Republicans have regarded it as
one of the spells of victory and have
used il as such, the argument does
not find the most enthusiastic support
among those interested, particularly
as the party is on the eve of a very
important election. There are a num-
Der of candidates already in the field
and before it is decided it looks as
though the contest would be very
warm.

we'll known for his hungry tones and
fearful speeches in the convention.
His ambition is also well known and
now politicians are beginning to Won

Trfune Gets Wild.

In a leading editorial in yesterday
mornings Tribune, it gravely calls
"The Political Arena" to account for
neglecting to set before a waiting pub
lie the "clear facts" regarding alleged
circulars being sent out, calling upon
Democrats to urge the voting of
women this fall in separate ballot
boxes and regarding an alleged list
of polygamists. as well as an alleged
intention of the Democrats ''to carry
this election or defeat statehood" If
there is any word of truth in these in
situations the Tribune has missed
the chance of its lifetime Here was
an opportunity for the Charles Carroll
Goodwin literary bureau and cam
paign liar to have distinguished itself
and himself by publishing a piece of
political news that had not previously
appeared in The Herald. AS the Sri
bune pretends to be newspaper it
should not have neglected so plain an
opportunity to do what it has not
done for 10! these many months and
secured a scoop" The fact that it
could not work up a sensation on the
subject shows there is absolutely moth
ing on which it can hinge a story.

WALTERS CASE.

AT PRESENT.
Figaro Says the Case Is Unfr,port-
ant, as Waller Was Mighty
Poor Consul Anyway.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2S.-It is prob
able that no further action will be taken
in the case of ex-Consul Wallet until
his statement taken by Newton B. Eus-
It's and Mr.. Alexander is received and ex-
amined. 1t is stated that the case will
then be a purely legal one, and that the
action of the department will depend on
the lawfulness of the French military
court and its actions and the legal status
of Mr. Walters contentious. The state
ment of Mr.. Waller is also to be COM
pared with the statements of ConskI Wet
ter at Tamatave, who had made q report
to the department of the facts gathered
by him in Madagascar. There is yet
wanting copy of the record of arrest
and the conviction of Waller. which rec
ord the French government has prom
ised. If it is not Forthcoming, the case
will be that much stronger against the
French government. If it has not ar
rived by the time the department is pre-
pared to act on the case as promised by
Consul Wetter and Mr.. Waller, the prob
abilities are that the FrencA government
will be asked to release the ex-consul at
once and to indemnify hin for the
wrongs he has suffered

cussed in a review by DR.. A. c. True,
the director of the experiment stations.
He says: ''The low prices prevailing
during the past year or two, combined
with the drouth and other causes that
have reduced the yield, have led farm
ers in most Of the region for the first
time to appreciate the necessity of
more diversified agriculture, instead Of
depending almost exclusively on the
great staple crops, like wheat
Throughout the west and north
west, irrigation problems are attract
ing increased attention among farm
ers. and the government stations are
making extended irrigation inquiries.
There are many questions relating to
the effect of irrigation on the soil and
crops that remain to be solved, and
some do not secure as much considera-
ton as they deserve Among these is
the matter of using. large quantities of
water containing alkali salts. where
continued practice is very likely to seri-
ously injure the vegetation"

retrieve the lost honor, while Waleott
was just as determined that he him
self would retain what he had won.
O'Brien weighed in this afternoon at

PARIS, Aug. 2S.-The Figaro this morn
ing declares that the Waller affair Is I'M
important, that Waller was only an
American consul through accident, that
he never did well, and that his consulate
stunned him. The Figaro adds: Moth
ing serious can result from the negotia-
tons regarding his condemnation, for he
is not worth the trouble. The Gastine
incident is more serious, but any formal
complaints should come from France and
not from America which is entirely in
the wrong. Moreover, the American news
paper campaign in this connection is
fare, without Importance to us, and
aimed much more against President
Cleveland and Mr.. EuStiS."
