Young Octopus Caught.

Mobile. being located on the sea coast, it is quite natural that curiosiues Tn tne way of fish and shells should nnd tneir way here. Yesterday morning the nsn, ing smack Pol Ros of the Mobile Flsn anu ovst.r Company fleet, arrived up with catch of fish from off Chameleon Island. in the Gulf. In the cargo was a decided curio. in the shape of a young Octopus, measuring five feet from the body to the sxtremity of either of the eight arms or tentacles. Many here had seen pictures of this sea monster. commonly caiieo 2 devil fish. but no idea can be concelVeo of the uglness of the fish until II IS seen in the flesh. The tentacles are suppneu .r,,h Irnumerable suckers. whereby the ,,,otir, Ia held and 1t Is known that the fnll grown octopus is a deadly enemy on the briny deep. The fishermen Wno landed this specimen had quite a ume with 1t, though a small one.

know Of, they may take this as a
notice and present their biz and
get their money. We have little
money to loan, il any of the dirty
gang are hard up and will give
security. We don't want the
patronage Of the low, hell-bound
bleeders and we serve notice on
them to that effect. We are
against them and for the people,
and as long as we have strength to
slide lead-pencil, they will find
us horning them from start to fin
ish, and their low Doodle and bar
ter can not hush us. The Demo-
cratic party in Hooking County
will find us chopping away as long
as we live, to crush out the in
famous pirates that have presum-
ed to usurp the throne Of good
citizenship in the management of
our public affairs.
How do the republican officers
of this county like the way they
are offered for sale by the blote
Bank-robber that says he owns
them, and they dare net swerve
from his will and dictation, and
he can sell their good patronage to
further his own personal ambit-
ions.
Now q word to Mr.. Green. He
has been in the newspaper busi-
ness in Logan for 25 years. He
has been up against all such low
schemes Of the enemy, and why he,
above all others should bite at
their bate, is mystery to us. We
are not advising, but we took
Pursell'S advice and are not near
so easy as we were in our youth.
Perhaps We will get easy again
when we are old and childish.
We believe honesty is the best
policy, and if Bank Receiver
Sands and his henchmen boodlers,
have any favors to bestow, let
them pass us to the next fellow.
We want to serve notice on them
that we are after them and their
dirty policies as long as we live,
and they live, and very little good
we will say of them after they are
dead.
The Ohio Democrat. (Logan, O. [Ohio]) 1886-1906, 1902-01-16

the letter and had to explain that
when he denied its authenticity he
did not know that the President
had decided to send it. Mr..
Roosevelt also explained that he
had instructed Secretary Root to
make it public and had forgotten
to advise Mr.. Long.
Another instance of the Presi-
dents pecularities is the case of
Secretary Gage who has denied
his resignation continuously. The
President when asked on Monday
about the Secretary's resignation
said that he had never seen it and
yet it is known that Governor
Crane was offered the position by
the President, personally, early last
Friday. The President might as
well have said that he has offered
Mr.. Cages position to another with
out asking for his resignation.
What prevents Gage from sending
in his resignation now and at the
same time making it public SO, in
as far as possible, to save his dig
nifty, it is difficult to understand.
Governor Crane declined the
honor although he was pressed to
accept by Senator Lodge. The
President then rendered the port
folio to Governor Shaw of Iowa,
who has accepted and will prob
ably assume the duties some time
in January. The position wss a
difficult one to fill as a man who
has the ability to administer the
office with credit to the admins
tration usually has far greater op-
portunities elsewhere and only
motives Of patriotism or personal
regard for the President will in
duce man of great ability to ac-
cept.

Civil Service Examinations.

The u. S. Civil Service Com
mission will hold examinations at
several places in each state during
March and April, to secure young
men and women for the govern
ment service. $3.50 persons Sc
cured positions last year through
these examinations. Pro b a b | y
10000 appointments will be made
this year. All appointments are
for life and for most positions only
a common school education is re-
quired. Salaries at appointment
vary from $3.50 to $1,000 a year
with liberal promotions afterward.
Politics is not considered. This
affords a good opportunity for
people between 16 and 45 years of
age. Those desiring places Of
this kind can get full information
about them, free, by writing to
the Columbian Correspondence
College, Washington, D. c., and
