Tho Democratic Stato Convention
nomtnnlcd J. Robs Thompson of Erlo
for Supremo Judge, ami B. J. Mo-
Qrann of Lauoastor for Stato Troaiur
cr. This nows Is rocoivod as wo go to
press.
Tho I'rosidont last week appointed
Alexander juoutic or now xork pres
ent Solioltor of tho Treasury, t"bo
Commissioner of Fish and Fishorics,
to suocood tho lato Professor Baird.
When uov. Jorakor ot Ohio is so
ashamed of tho action of his political
mends that ho attempts to apologize
for, and explain away tho insult offer
. od tho President at Wheeling, as an
accident, and ono of those "unfortunate
occurrences" for which no ouo is to
blame, tbo public may feel suro that
something pretty bad has boon done.
If Democratic members of tho G. A.
R. had refused to march under tho
portrait of a republican President, and
bad trailed tho American Has in tho
dust, as did tho republican G. A. R.
men at Wheoliug, Va. last week, tho
columns of their party organs would
havo teemed with denunciation of tho
act as disloyal and treasonable. If tho
organization permits an opon insult to
bo ottered tho (Jhiol JSxecutivo ot tuo
nation becauso ho is a Democrat, the
sooner it disbands, the better, for it has
then becumo a mcro political orsaniza
tion to bo run iu the interest of tbo re
publican party. If suob things are
permitted tho democratic veterans
should organizo a loyal G. A. R. which
will respect tuo 1 resident of tho United
states without regard to political par
tics.
The difference betweeu the soldier
and tho brawler who is steadily bring
ing disgrace upon tbo veterans of the
country, was sharply defined at tho re
union of the Army of West Virginia
in "Wheeling on Friday last. Among
the street decorations for tbo occasion
was a larce portrait of President Glovo
land suspended across tho street from
tho Register offioe, on which wero tho
words "God Uloss our Prosident-Uom-
mander-in-Chief of our Army and
Navy." When the front of the column
of soldiers reached the flair, they turn
ed from tho street to tho pavement and
drooped their flag.- exhibiting their
pnrposo to display the utmost contempt
for the President as advised by lirawl
er Tuttle. Fortunately for tho credit
of the veterans, the column of Encamp
ment No. 1, of tho Union Veteran Lo
gion, of Pittsburg, came up and march
ed squarely under the banner with up
right flag-staffs and showed their self-
respect as soldiers by saluting tho
Cleveland banner.
Tho fact that a lot of brawlers were
responsible for this disgraceful conduct
of a fow soldiers, is evinced by the
crowd of fellows who met tho march
ing column in the Btreet and violently
importuned them to refuse any semb
lanco of respect to tho president, and
it is not surprising that many soldiers
in tho procession tore off their badges
and loft the ranks. No self-respecting
soldier would have either oommitted
such a breach of decency or advised
others to do it. And the occasion very
distinctly drew the lino between the
soldiers and the brawlers of the veter
an organizations, Mr. Hart, editor of
tho Jntelliaencer, tho ltepublican or
gan of Wheeling, delivorcd an address,
expressing regret for tho dispute and
said that tho Democrats of Wheeling
had contributed liberally of their time
and money to give a generous welcome
to tho soldier guests. Times.
WASHINGTON LETTEB
From our Regular Correspondent.)
Washington. D. 0., August 29, 1887.
It seems to mo that the public land
policy of this administration oommonds
it to the favor of the people far more
than any other measure it has adopted.
Thero has been no cessation in the
great work of overhauling the swin
dling manipulations of hungry land
sharks and the poweriui railway cor
porations havo also been made to dis-
gorgo much of a free people's birth
right, ruthlessly given away by Repub
lican Administrations. Under the
swamp land law, passed by Congress
in 1850, authority was granted certain
states, with pubho lands in their bor
ders, to drain and reclaim all swamp
and overflowed lauds, preparing them
for purposes of agriculture; later, acts
woro passed granting to tho States
with Biich lands an indemnity of $1,25
per aero for each aero pi swamp land
sold by the Government after the aot
of 1830 and up to tbo date of the in
demnity act of 1855. Then in 1857,
Congress passed a law securing to each
Stato the titles to such tracts as wero
condemned by the several States as
swamp lands. Now, so far as can be
ascertained Louisiana is the only State
that has m ado any attempt to reclaim
these lands, and that was soon abandon
ed. You cau at a thought eeo what i
vast field of fraud was invitingly open
ed by the Government, full advantage
of which was taken by thousands of
unscrupulous persons who falsely
sworo away millions of acres of tho
most fertile lands tho settlers and tho
United States land agents often making
a "combioo"' against the Government
in their nefarious work. As tbo swamp
law was passed thirty-seven years ago,
if tbo law had been carried out in good
faith, tho States would havo long sinco
reclaimed all such lands ; but, still,
"swamp land claims'' aro being almost
daily presented, rno malicious attack
made upon Commissioner Sparks aro
solely duo to his eitorts to check and
correct this gignntio swindlo for
which he is entitled to tho highest
pralso.
Civil Servioa reform seems to bo mak
ing protty fair progress undor tho now
regulations requiring clerks in ofiice to
be examined. A low days ago tuo
Civil Service Commission received
from tho Secretary of Navy a request
lor the certitioatos ot 212 eligibles all
males from which 53 selections may
bo made to till existing vacancies. To
supply this, the largest requisition ever
made on the Commission, at least four
ocrtilloates wero mado for each of tho
States and Territories. The Civil Ser-
viuo Commissioners aro divided in
opinion in regard to tho power of dis
missal, Mr. Edgcrton, holding that tho
appointing authority has absoluto pow
er of ilinninl, while his colleagues
contend that such power is restricted
by tliu Civil Service Law.
'Tho Inters'tato Commeroo Law seems
lo bo steadily growing in popular fav
or. Senator Butler of South Carolina
who opposed tho measure, lias bcoiM
won over by Ins recent oxponenco in
a railroad collision, and in oonseqiionoo
bo proposes to iutroduoo amendments
to tho law, regulating tho spcod of
trains and limiting tho timo of railrond
employees to twolvo hoars consccutivo
scrvlco in a day.
National Hank depositories now noiu
a larger sum of Government funds
than over beforo tho amount being
$20,257,201.
Ovor soven million and a halt trade
dollars havo been rodoomed to date,
moro than half of whioh havo been ro
coined into dimes.
Tho testimony in sovon oontosted
election oases has been reocived and
printed by tho clerk of tho Houso of
Representatives, which, I bcllove, Is a
muoh smaller numbor than usual.
At tho last Cabinot meeting, for tho
first timo during this Administration,
all tho raombors wero absont, oxocpt
Secretary Bavard tho other portfol
ion being represented by Assistant
Secretaries.
As it is regarded as praotioally set
tled that PrcBldont Clovoland will- be
renominated, somo interest is boing
manifested in tho nomination lor

"Poors Railway Manual" for 1887,
just issued, shows that during the past
year over u.uuu miles of new railway
was added to the already enormous
railway mileage of the country. Not
less than 5,500 miles havo beon added
since January 1, 1886, making 14,500
miles in about twenty months. If this
long line of new road absorbed capital
at the moderate rate of $20,000 per
mile the total investment would roaoh
tho sum of $290,000,000. The expen
diture of this vast sum has Bufliced to
make business brisk, but it has also
contributed to make money a little
scarce and iu good demand. In other
words, the capitalists cannot invest
thoir monoy and have it, too, and the
nearly three huudred millions that havo
been absorbed by tho now railway
building of tbo last twenty months is
just so muoh money drawD away from
the money contres and distributed to
the workers and thoso who supplied
the materials. It is of more uso to the
publio at large by being thus distribut
ed, but it makes the amount available
for call loans in the money oentres
just that muoh less. Ex.
