Never before in the history of the
United States has the South been so
prominent, in American politics, as l£
la to-day.
To begin with, President Cleveland
has three Southern men in his Cabinet
—more than has been known in a
quarter of a century, and certainly
more than any one expected. Besides
these, Mr. Cleveland has seen fit to
honor the South by other appoint
ments that are equal in Importance to
those of a Cabinet position.
This Is significant for many reasons,
paramount of which Is the fact that
Southern men of brains and ability
are claiming and receiving the recog
nition that is, Justly, theirs. No posi
tion to which any of them is con
signed can measure their ability, for,
without a single exception, they have
always discharged their duties in i
manner that has stamped them as be'
ing, not only nu honor to their suction,
but to the great country ill which live
as free American citizens.

Hany Prefer a Dirty Note to -A New One,
Especially In the West.
The raid that won made on the
treasury department for new notes
and coins by the visitors in Wash
ington during the Grand Army en
campment and the 1,000,000 and
move old torn bills which they left
behind indicates what a rarity a
crisp, new note is in the west. In
Washington people have got to be
quite fastidious about their money.
That which is fresh and clean is
right at their hand, and when a note
begins to get a littlo soiled they do
not care to handle it. Notes such as
are regarded as in good condition in
Chicago and other western cities
would not circulate for a day in
Washington. Pockotboolts are sel
dom used there except for small
change, the correct thing being for
those who have money to carry the
new bills in an envelope without
folding them, so as to preserve their
newness.
A Washington man going west can
mark the Btngcs of his progress by
tho changing condition of the money.
In tho cities of tho far west it is bod
enough, but in the country places
and umoug the farmers generally
after passing the Ohio a now note of
small denomination is a tiling almost
unknown. Even in Minneapolis men
from Wu:;liington who earned crisp
SI notes in tho “original packages,”
just us they came from tho treasury,
found occasionally pluses whore they,
could not puss tho money because it
looked “too now to he goo.l." A
good many of tho street car conduc
tors refused to take tho new notes,
but a dirty hill, all patched and al
most free from design, was taken
without question us tho proper thing.
It is said ut tho treasury department
that comparatively littlo money
comes in from the west for redomp
tiou.
Grout, quantities of tlmso notes
don’t come hack for redemption, and
in tho (hull run of years tho govern
ment is npich tho gainer by it. The
trouble is that, while the treasury is
always ready to destroy tho old notes
nnd give uow ones in their place,
there is no provision for transporta
tion of the notCB, und tho amount of
express charges from a distance pre
vents their being sent in for redemp
tion. In 1882 congress made an ap
propriation for the payment of such
express charges, and for once tho en
tire country got a new set of green
backs. Since then there hns boon no
appropriation for that purpose, nnd
tho natioual currency is sadly in need
of repairs.- Cor. Philadelphia Tele
