Daily Democrat From our regular correspondent 'VASHINUTON. Washington, April 39th, 1889. President Harrison has refused to extend the time for the Railway Mail Service la pass under the rules of the Civil Service Commission. Consequently n appoint ment can be made in that branch of the Government service after May 1st, except through the Civil Service Commission. This action was taken in opposition to the wishes of Postmaster General Vanamak!r, who had asked ta have the time extended. The most thoroughly disappointed man in the United States Billy Mahone.of Vir ginia had quite a long interview with the President on Saturday, and it is said that he made a most piteous appeal for recogni tion of some sort. lie is no longer choice about what he gets. He started out by de manding a Cabinet position, but now he humbly asks to be allowed to name a few of the smaller Federal officials in Virginia, and it is by no means certain that even that privilege is to be allowed him. President Harrison, as a lawyer,must be familiar with the eld English legal maxim which says, "the receiver of stolen goods is as bad as the thief," but his action in cut ting the acquaintance of his old friend, V W Dudley, who organized the doubtful voters of Indiana into "blocks of five," and stole the state, proves that he does not be lieve in the aforesaid maxim. It has been hinted around Washington for some time that President Harrison had refused to speak to Col Dudley since the latter was unfortunate enough to get shown up in the "blocks of five" business. Could it be be cause the President disapproves of such crookedness? Why, Dudley has been one of the crookedest and ablest lieutenants for 1o these many vears,and it was for just such work that he, by special request, had Dud ley made treasurer of the republican Na tional committee. Gen Harrison did not seem to object to the crookedness then, on the contrary he accepted all the benefit therefrom, Jtut when Col Dudley was stupid enough to be caught. Gen Harri son's virtue developed, and he resolved to have nothing more to do with such a very wicked man as Dudley. It is strange that everybody else should know all about Co 1 Dudley's dark ways all these years and that the President should have been entirely ignorant. Dudley, himself, has made the rumored snubbing a certainty by giving out a letter which he wrote to a gentleman in Indiana, who had asked his influence in getting an office for which he was an applicant. The following paragraph fromDudley's letter tells the whole story : "Perhaps there is no one in the whole country who has done as much for General Harrison during the last twenty years as I have, but because our democratic friends down in Indiana have started the hue and cry on me, brother Ben does not seem to feel that he can af ford to recognize me as an acquaintance, and consequently I don't take dinner at the White House as might be expected." If President Harrison believed his friend Dudley to have been such a rascal that he could not afford to recognize him as an ac quaintance, would he net have been more consistent to refuse the fruits of that ras cality the Presidency ? No sane man doubts that New York was carried by the same methods as Indiana. If Col Dudley is a thief, who is the receiver of the stolen goods ? Private Secretary Halford says that the President's health has not been better in twenty years than it is now. This story is gotten up for out-of-town consumption ; it will not pass here where people can see the President's chalky face and the watery looking puffs under his eyes. Senators Sherman and Quay who have been saying uncomplimentary things about each other, have shaken hands and out irardly made up,but they have both doubt less made up their minds to get even with each other at the first opportunity. The General Land Office will Investi gate the charges that Government officials took advantage of their official positions for taking possession f raudently of choice town lots and homesteads in Oklahoma before the bona fide settlers arrived. Dr C E Simmons, who is trying to se cure $143,350 from the executors for med ical advice to the late Samuel J Tilden, figures up the sum by charging $50 a v'.sit for 2200 visits and $50 a day far holding himself in readiness to devote his exclu sive attentian to Mr Tilden. It is a mag nificent bill of its kind. The leaders of the big sugar trust defi antly declare that their mammoth combine is here to stay. That depends altogether n which party the people put in power in 1893. If you have aoy job work to di call on O W. Smith who is prep su to do it with neatness and dispat 'h and as cheap as anyone.
