FRIDAY JUNK 12, 1885
Ex-Secretary Boutwell visited the
customs division of his old depart
ment lately and found a familiar face
at the desk of the acting cnief of this
division. "I hope," said the ex-See-
retary, "that you Vilf he promoted
to fill the position permanently. Your
record is very good Indeed.1' "You
ought to know," replied Mr. McGreg
or, "for you once dismissed me from
the Treasury on the charge of being
a Democrat."
When asked receutly if he would
accept the Democratic nomination for
Governor of Ohio, Alian O. Thurman
aaid : "I always consider it an Inde
cent thing to decline an office before
it is tendered, or before any with au
thority has conferred it, but on this
occasion I have no hesitancy In say
ing that I wil Inot be a candidate,
and I will not accept this nomination.
I can not afford, at my time of life,
to do it."
A tew days ago a man by the name
of Simlor walked into the pension ofiioe
and asked to see commissioner Black.
He said ho wanted bis pension cancell
ed. The clerk examined the record and
found the man was drawing $72 per
month. The clerk asked the man if he
had duly considered the matter and
Snyder a.ud he had. The reflection
farces itself upon our mind that the
man must be very lonesome in this
country.

The gross earning of the Union
Pacific railway for the first four months
of 1885 were $7,201,607, an increase
over the same period last year of $47,

decrease of $213,018. The surplus
earnings were $2,242,113, an increase
of $268,158.

A lady pensioner has notified Pen

old adage that birds of a feather flock to

opinion that the art of making artificial
stone is ore-historic, and that the pyra

TBI IT MO I t:,
It' it were not an insult to a reading,
discriminating public, it would be amus
ing to seo the extravagant manner iu
ahich the Orrjonian deals with facts
when treating of appointments made by
President Cleveland. A few days ago
the president saw fit to appoint Herbert
F. Beecher, son cf Henry Ward He
oher. collector of customs at Port
Townsand in Washington Terri'ory.
The dispatch containing this announce-
ment also stated that it was understood
that his lather persistently refused to
speak in behalf of his son's appointment
or to allow any of his family to do so.
The Ortgonian editor of the sama issue
containing the dispatch, goes out of his
way in a characteristic way to say that
his appointment was procured and ac
cepted by the celebrated divine on be
half of his son. That paper gave no
authority for such a statement, and of
course had none. Cleveland's oouras is
denounced as a violation of ciil service
reform, when every one knows, or
should know, that the civil service rubs
do not apply in making appointments
of collectors of customs. But it is in-
. . . a
timsted that this appoiatmeut wan
made to compensate the elder Beecher
for services rendered in the campaign.
So far as the Ortgonian' article is con
oarned there seems to be neither truth
nor sense in the statement. But if the
standard of the Oregonian should be
observed iu making appointments, then
the president would be precluded from
appointing any man who supported him
for president, lor if he should appoint
his supporters, he would subject himself
to the charge which that paper now
makes against him, that of compensat
ing those with otlice wbo supported
him. The Otegoninn misrepresent the
president when he attempts to leave
any other impression on the minds of
his readers thau that Cleveland waa
pledge.l to appoiut any other than his
political friends to office. Admit that
the president apjointed young Beecher
out of pure gratitude of bis father, is
there anything in all tnis that would
justify the statement of the Oregonian ?
We trow not. Cleveland has a long
line of republican pn cedents to justify
him in making such appointments.
The time has been too short for people
to forget that Grant gave Ackerman,
Longatrtet, Moeehv, and other rebels
good fat effete tor political services
reodered, that Hayes, the old fraud,
did the same thicg when he appoiuled
Key as postmaster general. The hauds
of these men were reeking with tie
blood of a violated constitution when
they were appointed to compensate
toeta for political services rendeied.
Then there is Mahone with whom the
republican party, through its recognized
and authorized leaders baa been con
sorting for five years, who has hundreds
of his fiiends, (and the moat disreputa
ble and corrupt citizens of Virginia,
withal,) appointed to office in payment
tor hb services rendered to the republi
can party. This aon tract with Mahone
was entered into by Garfield, faithfully
carried out by Arthur, and would have
found its culmination bad h3 been
elected. The Oregonian would do well to
keep io mind the history of iu own
party when condensing democrats.
BTABVISC.
For some time we have bad scraps
of news about a famine in West Vir
ginia. The situation iu Jackson county is
is said to be serious. A hundred families
are en the verge of starvation and unless
aid is speedUy extended by the remsin
der of the state or the outside world,
the most disastrous results may be ex
pected. Some of the more fortunate
and influential people of the county, and
others who believe the condition of the
inhabitants exaggerated, have hereto
fore denied reports that have from time
to time been published, ststiog that
things could be tided over until the
new crop could lie raised, but now
much alarm prevails and public meet
ings are being held iu all villages and
local papers are printing appeals for
sid. Last week meetings were held at
White Pine and New Kentuck, at
which scores of citizens, representing
their respective neighborhoods, testified
as to the extent of the famine. Many
pitiful stories are being told. Hiram
Cobb, owner of a mill, said the people
would come at the rate of a dozen a day
after walking a iong distance, begging
for a pint or quart of meal, and some
times bring half a peck of grain or a
few ears of corn to be ground. He
knew men wbo had gone for five days
without food, and ho himself would
soon be a sufferer. J. H. Garrett said
bis neighbors were actually starving.
John South, county assessor, said that
to his knowledge thirty-five families
were in danger of starving at New
ww t A I a
jventucK- appeal ior aia was
signed by representatives of 100 fam
ilies. These are but specimen stories.
One family is said to haye su baited
for five days on lettuce and when found
were nearly dead.
The most accomodating postmaster
in the United States lives io Illinois.
His name is Peterson, and his office
is located in one of the small towns of
Sangamon county. A le ter was re
ceived at the department on Thurs
day signed by a score of Peterson's
townspeople.wbo accused him ofoffen
enslve partisanship and dem anded that
he be removed at once. At the bot
tom of the communication was this
indorsement from Peterson : "I
heartily concur in the above. I think
I ought to he bounced at once."

An exchange in speaking of the pre
valence of crime, ssys.we seem to he in
the midst of a lawless era. It ranges
through all conditions of Sooiety and
involves the highest and lowest condi
tions of ineo. The reason for all this
must be found in the lax execution of
the laws. It is impossible to believe
that wo are afflicted with an epidemic
of maduess, and that so much atrocity
is tie result of unsettled intellects.
There can be no doubt that society
itself has much to do with these evil
conditions. Public sentiment is the
chief influence in the proper adminis
tration of the law. Indeed, public sen
timent is the law's chief executive. It
is what compels courts and juries to do
their duty, and a h althy public senti
ment demands that no guilty man shall
escape. Neither can there be any doubt
that tho proper indignation of a com
munity at tho perpetration of a orime
and against its perpetrator grows leal
with the lapse of time. This faot should
inspire a speedy punishment for an act
of violence. Otherwise people forget
the faots, the details that go to show
the motive and intent inn of a crime
pass from the memory, and a mere im
pression, easily subdued or wiped away,
alone retrains in the popular mind.
The thing is a deed of tbu paat,and with
the American spit it of indifference to
the past and hurry for the present, the
trial of a loug-delayej case ceases to ex
cite that attention which woulu demand
its piojer adjudication. Another most
important feature in thin consideration
is the fact that very often tho criminal
has for months gone at large upon bail,
has mingled with the people, become a
part of the community, and t.y his be-
havior and intercourse with the world
has excited a false sympathy for himself
which goes far io oblitHtat the feeling
that he merits puniahmout t the hands
of the law. It seems a cruel thing for
justice to take a man who bs for
months been living familiarly with his
family and friends and punish him for
a crime of whieb it has iong been cog
nizant. If will not il.-i.it d that the
law is inuie strictlv adiniuiateted in

The following rather curious piece of
composition was recently placed upon
the blackboard at a teachers' institute,
and a prize of a Webster's Dictionary
offered to any person wbo could read it
and pronounce every word correctly.
Ibe book was not carried off, however,
as twelve waa the lowest number of
mistakes in pronunciation made :
"A sacrilegious son of Belial, wbo
suffered from bronchitis,having exhaus
ted bis finances, in order to make good
the deficit, resolved to ally himself to a
comely, lenient and docile young lady
of tte Malay or Caucasian race. He
accordingly purchased a calliope, and a
coral necklace of a chameleon hue, and
securing a suite of rooms at a principal
hotel, he engaged the head waitet as bis
coadjutor. He then dispatched a letter
of the most unexceptionable caligraphy
extant, inviting the young lady to a
matinee. She revolted at the idea, re
fused to consider herself saciificabe to
his desires, and sent s polite note of
refusal, on receiving which he procured
a carbine and bowie knife, said that be
would not forge fetters hymeneal wit h
the queen, went to an isolated spot,
severed bis jugular vein, and discharged
the contents of his carbine into his
body. The debr s was removed by the
coroner."
The mistakes in pronunciation were
made on the following words : Sacrile

greeting from the little girls, Miss
Emma WHUaras with a neat little
speech presented her in behalf of the
company the following gifts : Pair
of gold bracelets, fob watch chain and
locket, silver cup and silver fruit
knife. To say she was pleased only
