OBE'S OBSERVATIONS.
Yl'lmt He Bees nnd Hears During lilt
Travels.
Tho decision of tho Common Fleas Court
of Delaware county, under which tho city of
Chester rccovored llccnso money for tele
graph poles erected thero and operatotl
there by the Western Union Telegraph Com
pany, lias been affirmed by tho Supreme
Court, Tho amount paid was $l ft year for
oach pole. .Tho Supremo Court's opinion
says: "It Is the duty of the citr to see that
the poles are safely and properly maintained,
nnd should a citizen be injurod in person or
property by reason of a neglect of such duty,
mi action might lio against tho city for tho
consequences of such neglect. It is a mis
take, therefore, to moasuro such rosponil
bllitlos of a charge by tho amount actually
expended by tho city for a particular year, to
tho particular purposo iu tho affidavit."
Tho above subiect has. been discussed at
somo length sinco the rendering of tho do-
clsion nnd n majority seem to loan toward
tho opinion that thero is danger of tho tele
graph company Increasing iU tolls to make
up for tho llccnco fees. If tho license should
bo ccnerallv enforced it would amount to
millions of dollars annually, aud tho tolo
graph companies will not nllow their treas
urles to suffer to that oxtont if thoy can
help It.
I am informed that tho Kehloy Gold' Cure
Company is contemplating tho establishment
f an Institution in this town for tho accom
modation of Schuylkill county. Tho Har-
rlsburg and other institutions now liavo ah
most as rnanv natients as thoy can handle
and tho company has concluded that it can
afford to establish a branch horo to tako in
patients whoso moans aro limited. If tho
plan is carried out tcoplo in Shenandoah and
tho neighboring towns will bo ablo to securo
tho treatment at its actual cost and will bo
saved the additional expenses for board, &c,
which aio incurred by seeking tho treatment
at distant points.
Tho spring poets who wero tempted to

They aro a class of peoplo that excitomy
sympathy. Tho great majority of them
want to bo appointed to office, for tho reason
that they havo been unsuccessful in their
privato affairs and aro pinched for the nee
essarv money to allow them to llvo in tho
comfort that every man wants to have,
They havo a rignt to tho offices if thoy can
get them. These positions belong to the
whole peoplo and not to any particular class.
At least that is how it should be, but it is not
rho civil servico business Axes tho great ma
jority of them in tho control of a class or ot
several classes. Tho peoplo as a wholo get
littlo chance to enjoy them. This explains
why I havo a sympathy for tlioso crowds of
anxious but hopeful men 1 see crowding the
hot id corridors waiting for a decision each in
hits respective, application.
I know from my experience, leading
through six administrations, what is going to
be tho result in tho .great majority of their
Cii sea. Keen disappointment cxprossea it,
You can make nono of tliom believe it,
howevor. There seems to bo somo peculiar
idea that gets possession of a man's thinking
powers when he starts in to obtain public
office, that causes it to bo utterly impossible
for him to bo rnado to feel that thero i3a
possibility of somo other person being
proferred to him. It may bo classed as a
freak of nature.
In the languago of tho politician, this now
Prosidont of ours is a "daiBy." Somo of tho
politicians go so far as to say that he is a
"Lu Lu." I do not know what a "Lu Lu'
Is, but from the way in which tho expression
is applied to the caso of Mr. Cloveland
must mean something very extraordinary,
Tho manner in which he is surprising the
old professionals is the talk of tho hour.
This last step ho has taken is tho biggest oyo
opener of them all. I mean tho official an
nouncement that, with a few exceptions, he
intends iu making appointments to 'have none
of his selections from persons who served in
office when ho was President before. What a
crusher this is, when we remember that at
least nine-tenths of these very peoplo aro
now applicants for reappointment to their old
places or to ones that are better. Clevelant
