That "Undo Alviu" is as popular now as I10 was a score of years ago is attested every. where by crowded houses and screams of laughter. It seems destined to novor woar out. Fifteen years is a long time for a play to remain before the public and still continue to bo valuablo property, but this is true nevertheless of "Alvin Joslin."

S01110 ono writ ing about the United States says that its population is about 05,000,000, mostly office- seeker, and every change of administration gives additional weight to that assertion. Tills city now contains more office-seekers than it liasevorheld within its confines; more thn the gret numlierthat Hocked here eight years ago when the first Detnocratlo presi dent for a quarter of a century was inducted to ofllce, for now there are throe distinct classes of individuals who are deslrousof working for Uncle Sam. The first class contains those who were In ofllce underClevoland before and now want their old positions. They base their claim largely on the fact that thoy woro turned out by the licpuhlicau administration, and so their inforenco most naturally is that they are entitled a fecond tilal and with the ad vantage of having onco been through tho mill and the disadvantage of again asking such a favor, thoy plod iflong doing their utmost to succeed. In llio second class is the great body of tho Democracy who havo worked and voted Democrats all thoir livos and "nover sought olllce before," so now they really can't eoo how they can bo turned down. They aro continually on tho search for tholrScnator or Itepref-entative; havo greatllsts of endorse. montsand rocommcndations,and will take you into a corner and privately present thoir claims ina mjslerifms manner, winding up with the injunction tosay nothing about it just yet. Thoy chafo at tho delay, and can't see why It is that every clerk in the various depart ments is not turned out tho day following tho inauguration. The third class, is porliaps, the most troublesome, and probably tho most numerous. It contains all the voters Repub licans and Mugwumps who voted for Mr Clovcland at tho last election. A great number of thc-so como from tho Western states notably Illinois and Wisconsin which though hitherto in tho Iiepublican column were carried for Cloveland In 1802. They havo been encouraged by tho appointment of Judge Gretham to the Secretaryship of State and finding tiumselves in a position which to them seems exactly similar to that of the Judge, they aro sanguine that thoir services will bo similarly recognized. They do not como in tho usual humblo way begging for tho favor, hut demand berth, and a gocd ono too, as a just and well oiirned reward for their desertion from tho party with which they had so long been ntliliatcd. One need not stop to reflect that tho claims of these now converts to tho principles of Democracv meet with great opposition from tho old time and life long Democrats, and every position secured by tho former will cause much dissatisfaction among the lattei In theso young days of the now administra sion, tho applicants are all liappy and hopeful; of courso they must wait a few days until their little affair can bo taken up, hut it is sure to como. Hut as the days lengthen into weeks and tho weeks ihto months thoy go tho rounds of the mill with heavier footsteps, and with hopo almost dead. This is no place and the present no Umo for tho seeker after politi cal preference, so that if any of tho descrv Ing Democrats of Shenandoah are packing their grips with a view of coming to Washington to get a placo in Government employ, they had better take tho advice of tliellKitAl.Diuid come prepared to make a long stay.
