BUT IN WASHINGTON TT DIFFERS.
Prom Otions Depend More on PoIit-
Zeal Pull Than on Merit in the
Various Departments.

WASHINGTON, June 19.-The senate
civil service committee resumed its
hearings today. A letter was read
from William B. Prescott, president OF
the International Typographical union,
in which he stated that the Topographic
cal union was not friendly to the ap-
plieation Of the civil service rules to
the government printing office, as had
been represented. 1.-THE union" he
said, latter ever a years experience
under civil service rules, is not of Opin-
ion that the peoples interests are be-
ing subserved by their application to
the government office. Therefore, it
will exercise its influence to secure
their abrogation, and have the office
placed upon the same basis as the
most successful private Offices Briefly
the union is of opinion better results
would be attained by making foremen
responsible fer the quantity and quail
ity Of the output Of their respective
departments, investing them with au-
thority to employ help at will and to
discharge employees, to decrease the
force for incompetency, neglect of duty,
violation of office rules, etc.

ment, viz, Messrs. Youngb1ood, Timme
and Andrews, urging an amendment to
the law permitting auditors to select
their own private secretary. Henry A
Castle, auditor Of the treasury. for the
postoffice, appeared in person. Mr..
Castle had been postmaster at st. Paul
under the Cleveland administration, al
though he was an active Republican.
He testified that the law had been
faithfully observed, with one excep-
ton. Mr. Castle thought there was
great injustice in promotions ard re-
auctions in the executive departments
at Washington. He saiJ he knew at
least $50 cases in his own bureau where
Republicans had been reduced or dis
missed and Democrats put in their
places. He had found that in Wash
ington the clerks rely mere upon poll
teal influence to secure promotion than
upon their efficiency.

''you don't blame the boys for getting

WILL TEST THE TAX Law.
Case VIII BE Pushed Through the
North Dakota Courts.

BISMARCK, N. D., June 19.-In the
district court on Monday, writ Of
mandamus will be asked for by parties
here tie compel the treasurer of Bur-
leigh county to accept the taxes of 1896
without penalty or interest. It is a
friendly suit and is brought to test the
very important question as to whether
the tax Of 1896 becomes delinquent, and
whether any penalty or interest can
be collected.
1t Is the intention to take an i'm
mediate appeal from the decision of the
district court, and a special session of
the supreme court will be called at
once to pass upon the question. This
suit Is rendered necessary by errors in
the revenue law passed by the last
legislature. 1T is the opinion of lead
ing lawyers here that there is no law
making the tax of 1896 delinquent or
providing for any penalty or interest,
but that the supreme court will prob
ably make such law as it did in the
case where the law providing for as
SCISSORS was repealed. In that case they
held that the old law was still in force,

In North Carolina, mysteriously dis
appeared from the Milwaukee house a
week ago, and for several days search
was made for his body. Today it de-
velops that the old man hid himself
for several days on the West side, and
on Tuesday last took a train for Cana
da. He is now in Winnipeg. In Log
ging Creek and Great Falls, Vance
leaves several thousand dollars of
debt. Since circulating the story a
month ago, he borrowed money right
and left, and those willing to ingratiate
themselves in the multi-million-
aires good graces were not wanting.
Several neighbors, who were to ac-
company the old man to Europe, re-
signed their positions on the Montana
Central railroad, and as these have
since been filed they are now out of
employment. One victim, beside rent
ing his ranch, loaned the old man $500
until his money should arrive. Vance
claimed to be a nephew Of ex-senator
