10 McDILL'S MUSINGS.
Dreadful Feeling.

The situation in the Republican camp of
ofice-holders and office-seekers may be likened
to an Irish "bull' published in the Youths
Companion. A candidate in speech, declared
that his opponent was "lke FISH out of water,
riding rough hod over the feelings of his con-
stituents."
Burton is fish out of water, and to say that
he is riding roug shod over the feelings of the
Baker crowd is putting it mild. 1t is not that
Burton seems to be revengeiul that has thrown
the Baker people into panic but because "to
the victor belongs the spoils." All Republican
politicians spoilsmen. 1t is spoils that
make the party powerful and patriotic"
Burton enlisted the support OF all Republicans
who did not get Office through Bakers inAu-
ence, and, therefore, the Burton crowd was
much bigger than the Baker crowd Burton
will have to turn the Baker crowd adrft or be
murdered. AS Burton seems to be very much
attached to Sc atorial life, the Baker crowd will
have to go, and, in anticipation, are suffering
all the horrors of the dreary existence of life
without an office.
There are two manias that thank the Lord
l never had: snakes in the boots and craving
for Office. l am pretty we'll satisfied that of the
two, would prefer snakes. Craving for Office
is incurable this side of the grave yard, and if
there is any disease a man will carry cover the
river" it is the Office disease.
Now, the of1ice-seeking crowd in the Repub-
lican party, if the mania continues to spread,
will, in the near future, exceed the voting
strength of that party When that time comes,
look for catastrophe but not till then.
am satisfied from the symptoms, that every
man who gets an Office has dreadful feeling
lest he lose the Office, and every man who does
not get an Office mas dreadful feeling because
he got no Office.
AS Baker could not give all his friends Office,
his friends were bound to be in the minority.
Next time, Burtons friends will be in the mi
nority, and some other man who has time to
get around aud see everybody and promise them
offices will ride in rough-shod over Burton's
Office holders, and, like Burton he will be just
as much out of place as a fish out of water.
The dreadful feeling exists in other states.
Senator Chandler, of New Hampshire, has
