Simply Awful

werst Case of Scrofula the

Completely Cured by HOOD’S
SARSAPARILLA.

“ When I was 4 or 5‘ years old I had a semi.
ulous sore on the middle finger of my left hand.
which at so bad that the doctors cut the
finger o and later took of! more than half my
hand. Then the sore broke out on my arm,
came out on my neck and face on both sides,
nearly destroying the sight of .one eye, also
on my right arm. Doctors said it was the

Worst Case of Scrofula
they ever saw. It was simply awful! Five
years ago I began to take Hours Sarsaparllla.
Gradually I found that the acres were begin-

Discipline.

An item appeared in the columns of
the GAZETTE on Tuesday, to the effect
that complaint had been made of the
. violation by a teacher in the Center
:School Of rule '7, which prohibits the
keeping of scholars after school for a
:longer period than half an hour.

In order that the rule referred to
may be understood we publish it in
full: .

“7.--Teachers may detain scholars
not to exceed half an hour, at the close
Of the afternoon session, but at no
other time, for discipline, or to make
up neglected lessons. (In the lower
grades or classes fifteen minutes will
be the limit,) and no additional pen-
alty shall be imposed to be enforced
out of school hours, or which shall in-
terfere with their studies during school
hours.”

Since the publication of the violation
of the above rule the GAZETTE has
been informed that the teachers pro-
pose to keep scholars after school just
as long' as they please, board or no
board Of school visitors, which suggests
the inquiry as to whether the teachers
are running the public schools or the
school visitors elected by the people.

”III e Mugwumps: the Ax.
It ap; ears, says the W: 'ngton Post,
that thc official action cf urth Assist-
ant Pc: Imaster Genere laxwell has

given the Mugwump a pain, and when
the Mugwutnp experiences a gripe he
never hesitates to groan and suffer for
the benefit of the entire universe. The
complaint against Mr. Maxwell is based
entirely upon the fact that he is doing
the very thing he was appointed to do
—cutting Off the heads of Republican
postmasters and appointing Democrats
to the vacancies he thus creates. Per-
Kaps one Of the most lucid indictments
against this feature Of the Cleveland
administration is contained in the fol-
lowing extract from the Springfield
Republican :

"It is with extreme regret that the
men who are urgentlfor the reform Of
the civil service read of the wholesale
removals of fourth-class postmasters
which are being made by the ready ax
Of Headsman Maxwell. The feeling is
just as strong against this vicious prac-
tice as it was against the same policy
under Clarkson. and prominent men
who supported Cleveland have no more
charity for the evil under a democratic
than undera republican administration.
In fact, the assurances which havebeen
given of the purpose to extend the civil
service rules and to follow the spirit
of the civil service law make such
doings as Maxwell’s all the f more ex-
asperating. One of the active Mug-
wumps cf the campaign of 1884, who
has supported Cleveland__ ever since,
speaking to-day of Maxwell’s policy,
said that ‘he ought to be snaked out Of
his Oiiice.’ It is already proposed to
enter a formal and vigorous public
protest against this policy of removal
for political reasons, and unless there
is a_change the administration will lose
rap1dly in the good will which it
evoked when it was said that the claims
Of ofiice hunters would not be suffered
to interfere with the public business.”

What right have "the Mugwumps to
complain, and where is the Mugwump
who has refused to accept Office under
the present administration ? The peo-
ple who went to the polls and voted
for a change in administration voted to
put Republican Ofiicials out and to put
Democratic Officials in. The rural vo-
ter who took a day 011' last November
and rode to the crossroads to vote for
Grover Cleveland dcsired a change of
administration and the particular in-
dividual he had in mind was the fourth-
class Republican postmaster at the cor-
ner grocery. He wanted a change in
that office and it was a desire to carry
. out the will of the people that induced

= Mr. Cleveland to place Mr. Maxwell

at the head of the department of re-
movals, and in doing this he carried
out a pledge every bit as sacred as the

- promise to revise the tariff.
But why do the Mugwump newspa-
pers, like the Springfield Republican,

 

. . fret and fume over the fourth-class post-
masters, when they might go in for re:
‘ formation ous-large-scale ?- It has not

been ‘sovvery; longfsincei‘the high office
of‘CivilSeryice Commissioner was dis-
graced by tithe worst element of ‘the

. spoils system. There are .spOilsmen
._ and spoilsmen, but the spoilsmen who
" wear the garb of reform in order to ply

their trade ’ are dishonest and dan-
gerous to the public service. An inves-
tigation by a Congressional committee
proved the present president of the
Civil Service Commission, Charles Ly-
man, to be that sort of a spoilsman, yet
not a single Mugwump. newspaper de-
nounced him or called for his removal.
Why do they swallow the offenders in
high places and strain at the fourth-
class postmasters? ' '

President Cleveland has been rather
busy since the 4 of March. Consider-
able of his time has been occupied in
the dispensation of patronage. He has
been compelled to listen to the appeals
of many Mugwumps who want Office,
but the Post is confident that just as
soon as he has time to look into the case
of Reformer Lyman he will at once
reach for his ex and proceed to purify
the Civil Service Commission. We can-
not hope for purity in the civil service
when the watershed of the the system
“is infested with individuaiswho incline
to the Lyman style Of'reform.

Remorse with a Saving Clause.

Perhaps the United States Senate
chamber will never again be the scene
of such a touching and pathetic specta-
cle as occurred there on Thursday last,
says the Washington Post. As the
dramatic critic would say, the situa-

. tions were startling, the dialogue vivid,

and the impressions created of the
most lasting nature. The occasion for
this bit of pathos was the passage of
the resolution providing for the trans-
fer of the Senate spoils from the hands
of the Republican vanquished to the
hands of the Democratic victors, and
instead of the victors making merry,
they organized a meeting that verged
closely on the lines of a funeral ervice,
and the praises of the Republican Of-
fice-holders who were about to lose
their heads were,,sounded in pseudo-
romantic platitudes.

From the orations delivered on this
highly interesting occasion we are able
to infer that the gentlemen who com-
pose the majority of the Senate are in
no manner responsible for this sad Of-
ficial transfer. It appears to have been
one of those unexplainable visitations’
of Providence, and there was nothing
left for the Democratic Senators but to
bow to it and this they did with a display
of funeral fireworks that would bring
out all the latent jealousy in apunk
burner at a Chinese burial service. In
fact it is doubtful if the gloom-ridden
Democratic Senators could have been
induced to enter heartily into last year”5
campaign could they have foreseen the
result they deplored in such a doleful
manner on Thursday afternoon.

Doubtless there were some stony-
hearted Senators on the Democratic
side like Hon. David B. Hill who didn’t
enter heartily into Thursday’s memor-
ial services, but on the whole they were
a decided'success. There is a suspicion
that the distinguished ex-axman who
presided over the Obsequies derived
much pleasure from the passage of the
resolution of decapitation which was
so harmoniously supported by the
mourners, but aside from these excep-
tions there is no doubt that the grief
was deep seated and genuine. While
the Senate’s tearful farewell to its em?
ployes was touching and pathetic, it is
Sincerely hoped that the ceremony will
not be generally adopted by Officials
who are called upon to make political
decapitations.

Suppose, for instance, Mr, Maxwell,
of the Post-Oflice Department, should
undertake to throw in a funeral oration
with each scalp. It will be readily
seen that such a policy would at once
clog up the guillotine and delay the re-
formation of the fourth-class post-
oflices, and probably the very first to
complain of this delay would be the ,1
Democratic United States Senators.
A limited amount Of the oratorical
style of cfiicial bouncing will supply
the demand. In fact, the visible sup-
ply is sufficient.

Suspend Judgment.
_ A special legislative committee hav-
ing been appomted “to investigate the
management of the Connecticut State
prison as to certain abuses alleged to
exist therein at the hands of the warden
and his subordinate ' officers under his
authority and to report,” and said com-

gation, the directors of the prison take
this opportunity to ask for a suspension
of public judgment in the matter until
both sides have been heard.
