withstanding my new store is nearly one hundred feel long, it is tilled to
repletion with new goods of the very latest styles, and bought at the
lowest prices. It is with pleasure that I extend to the public a cordial
invitation to come at an early date and examine the goods advertised be
low with prices named:

Washington Letter.
Washington, May 9, 1885.
It is helived that the time has
nearly arrived for some sweeping
and cleaning in the Government of
fices here and elsewhere. Republi
| can office holders who have been
I bugging the delusive phantom of
hope, now wish they had something
I more substantial to anchor to.
i Things have occurred during the
j week that have shaken them up
considerably and made them re
member tlie many political crimes
of their depraved partisan lives,
j The Chicago postmaster was given
i his walking papers in a very per
emptory way. Chief clerk Ninuno,
the statistician of the Treasury De
j partment, who during the last eam
| paign was so skillful in making
figures lie, lias been dismissed.
Democrats have been appointed to
a large number of Post,Offices, and
as I remarked, it is believed that
the long prayed for reform in the
personcl of the civil service has be
gun, and it is to be hoped it will
not stop soon.
The smoldering Democratic im
patience lias broken out into fierce
flames in places. There was a con
ference held at Wizard’s hotel last
night which is much talked about
to-day. There were present Demo
cratic Senators, Reprsentatives,
and prominent citizens from Mich
igan, Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana,
Missouri, Kentucky, Virginia, and
elsewhere, including several mem
bers of the National Democratic
Committee. The discussions were
lengthy and earnest. It was urged
that President Cleveland and
nearly all his Cabinet had refused to
remove Republican office-holders,
even on the ground of offensive
partisanship, and that throughout
all the departments there were Re
publicans who had voluntarily con
tributed their time and money to
the Republican campaign, but yet
they were not only encouraged to
remain, but it was deemed an of
fense, to even suggest their remov
al.
The President has been informed
1 that the greatest source of discon
j tent was the postoffiees, which are
not being filled by Democrats, while
the Republicans are laughing _ defi-
I ance. They blamed the President
! for not demanding the resignation
j of First Assistant Postinastcr-Gen
j oral Hay and appointing an assis
tant who could aid the Postmaster-
General in filling the small postof
fices. They blamed the President
for not removing Republican office
holders in the states and giving the
offices to the victors.
After an interchange of views,
it was generally agreed that if-the
Adminietration continued to keep
Republicans in office, the President
should be gently informed that he
must look to the Republicans in
Congress for support#
The President has told us; said
one Senator today that we must be
conservative in these matters. I
did not understand that we
carried the last election on
a’ possum policy. We made a
straight out fight and won. Whose
was the victory? This thing of
keeping Republicans in office be
cause they might feel hurt if re
moved, maybe the sort of polities
they have up in heaven, but it won’t
do on earth.
The latest Democratic outrage is ;
found in the announcement that the
clerks in the Pension Office did
more work during April than in
any previous month in its history,
the increase amounting to an addi
tion of nearly one half, with the
same force as before. There has
never been any doubt among well
informed people that the average
amount of work turned off every
day by a 1 Government clerk fell far
below not only what he should ac
complish, but also what the em
ployee of any private establishment
would have to render on penalty of
dismissal for inefficiency : and this
change in the Pension Office de
monstrates the fact. The trouble
was, that under the spoils system
the political striker who forced his
patron to give him a place in
one of the Departments, knew that
he could keep it so long as his Sen
ator or Representative backed him,
even if he were lazy and negligent,
and so he had no incentive to do
lushest. Now on the other hand,
the clerk is well aware that he is
watched by a critical eye,, and tltat
incompetency will lead to his dis
charge, and so he goes to work iiy
the same way as a man who wnats
to keep his plaeo in a private busi
ness establishment. An incidental
element in producing this better
showing is the operation of the Ci
vil Service Law, which has been
the door through which a considera
ble percentage of the present em
ployees in the Pension Office reach
ed their desks, and. which has. thus
sensibly raised the level of abili.

Destroy tha Sign. AT
One may feel that he’s getting
I old, but he naturally dislikes that
! anything about his appearance
| should advise others of the fact. Yet
nothing does this so effectually as
thin and falling hair. No woman
wants to marry a man,andja business
firms hesitates to employ a man,
who shows this fatal sign. Parker’s
Ilair Balsam is worth to you, in this
regard, more than its weight in
diamonds. Use it, and have plenti
ful and glossy hair. Many have
had every trace of grayness remov
ed and bald spots covered by using
a single bottle.
