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

1893.
