ACTUAL CIVA SEKVICE. The civil service commission, a trio of office holders heretofore supposed to be more ornamental than useful, gave an actual demonstration last week at Indianapolis that there is something actually in earnest about its proceedings. The commission got after post master Wallace, his deputies and some of his ways of running the office and before leaving made hlin feel decidedly uncomfortable. Four of the deputies were promptly bounced by order of the commission. They had been appointed, it seems, simply on account of their services to the republican party and not for any fitness for the positions given them in the postal service. One or two of them had been in disgraceful acts and had been fined for their crimes, and were the last persons to whom responsible positions should be given. They had no characters, yet in spite of this the post master rewards them with an important trust. The commission seems to have given them a severe turning over, and created a decided sensation by its prompt manner of acting. Wallace knows a great deal more now about the civil service business than he did two weeks ago, will understand better what, is expected of him, will know that better material than mere vote-buyers and ward bummers are needed in the postal service. If the commission should extend its work all over the country, and weed out the incompetent and see that there is more business and less politics it would indicate without a doubt that it was created for some purp ise of usefulness.
NEW BLOOD NEEDED.
Assigning as a reason why the commencment proceedings of Wabash college were such tame affairs and created so little interest, and that the college had such a slim attendance of students, considering its age and standing compared to other institutions, a graduate of it said one day last week: "They need new blood and vim in the institution. There are three or four members ef the faculty who have outlived their usefulness and should retire for younger and more active men. It is the same hum-drum life with them year in and year out, Their salary is paid whether there Is a large or small attendance of students. If a class have two members or twenty-two it matters not, they receive about the same pay from year to year, and are indifferent as to whether 'school keeps' or not. The fact is the college is too well fixed financially. It Bhould be cramped some, and then professors could earn their bread by hustling around and bringing In an increased number of students and the board of trustees would be something more than mere figure heads. This college should have a yearly attendance of 500 students, but the year is away off in the dim future that will have a record of that many so long as the present abominable, old fogy way of management of it, as at present, prevails. They have allowed Purdue, DePauw, Bloomington, all to lead them in attendance of students, and unless some more able and energetic men take hold the usefulness of the college to the people, State and city in which it is located will continue to grow less."
"CORPORAL" TANNER, as he delights to be termed, would seem as reckless in the use of government funds in the payment of ex-sol-diers' pensions as anew fool spendthrift would be who had unexpectedly come into possession of a fortune by a deceased relative. The justice or the proper amount of a claim sedms to matter not to him so long as the man may have been a soldier. The merit of a claim he cares not for, so long as the applicant wore the blueHe may have been mustered into the service and gone out of it within ten days, and done no fighting nor Buffered any hardships, still he must be paid a big pension whether he earned it or not. He may have been an enrolling officer, stationed in some city, where his leisure hours would be spent in saloons, or have been a camp follower, but all the same he must be paid a big pension. The question of what shall be done with the surplus would not long remain unanswered if this man could have full sway. It makes no odds to him, apparently where this money comes from, who pays it into the treasury, or what other interests are to be looked after. "The Corporal" Is probably a first-class demagogue, is making a bid for the candidacy for president from his party in '92, but when it comes to a comparison of him with a le»«l headed soldier and efficient pension commissioner like Gen. Charles Black, there is really no comparison to be made.
AGAIN has prohibition received a defeat, and this time from Pennsylvania. Last week in that State upon a popular vote the proposed amendment favoring the adoption of prohibition into the constitution was defeated by over 100,000 majority. From the never failing ma jorify against It in almost every State in the Union Wliere brought before the people for decision it would seem that the prohibitionists stand a poor chance of ever being successful in this country in getting a majority of the people to think and act with them. What inducement they have to organize as a party they alone can explain, but that they will ever succeed in get. ting the people with them is we consider ex' tremely doubtful.
IN gifted and enlightened New England they understand how to use money for corrupt purposes fully as well as they do in the uncivil ized West. Recently Chandler was elected U. S. Senator from New Hampshire. It has since than been stated that he offered $550 for one vote and $1,200 for two votes. The worst feature about it seems to be that Chandler bad not sufficient sense to keep this feature of his corrupt course from the public. It would have been all right probably with his constituents if the thing had not been discovered. As it IB they pretend to feel very indignant over the rumors of his corrupt practices.
AT the June election in Indiana Jfor County Superintendent the democrats made a gain o' nine. In the elections held two years ago the democrats elected forty-two, the republicans fifty. This year the democrats elected fortynine, the republicans forty-two and the Independents one, making a net gain of nine.»
THE CRAWFOKJDriVILLK vViiERLY REVIEW7
SPECIMENS OF "GOOD TIMES." We are all aware with what eloquence and tine figures republican orators during the Isat campaign aimed to show to the people the result of business matters if they would vote for Harrison and the protection theory he advocated. Business would be good, workmen would be paid good wages, aud general prosperity would be seen on every hand. Below is seen the effect of "good Harrison times" in the month of May in various parts of the United States, six mouths after his election:
Carpenters, joiners, stone masonB and hod carriers to the number of 5,000 strike at Pittsburgh, Pa., for increase of day and againstnonunion labor.
In the Pittsburgh, Pa., district 800 railroad miners strike against anew scale of wages. Four hundred workmen employed by the White manufacturing company, of Rockville, Conn,, are locked out for assisting 150 striking weavers.
One hundred and twenty-five moulders at Perry's stove works at Albany, N. Y., laid off indefinitely.
At Brazil, Ind., 2,000 miners strike against an extraordinary reduction of from 90 to 70 cents for mining.
Strike of street car men at St. Paul, Minn., declared off and the men return to work at reduced wages.
At Joliet, 111., 700 quarrymen strike for an advance of 25 cents per day. Shut down mining operations at Evansville because men refused to accept a reduction of wages to 65 cents a ton for mining. Three hundred miners out.
Scranton, Pa., miners reduced to verge of starvation. Men with families do not average $10 a month.
At Marblehead, Mass., 60 men employed on the water works strike for an advance from $1.35 to $1.50 a day.
Strike at Alleghany Bessemer Works, Duquesne, Pa., ends in a failure. Lockout of silk ribbon weavers in several shops New York for demanding an advance in wages.
Six thousand men employed by the National Tube Works Company, at McKeesport, Pa.( strike for a 10 per cent raise.
Three hundred longshoremen employed in Brooklyn, N. Y., warehouse, strike for advance from 20 cents an hour.
Boston & Albany R'y freight handlers, at East Boston, Mass., strike against a reduction in wages.
Fifty Lochiel rolling mills employes at Harrisburg, Pa„ who went on a strike against a re. duction in their wages were paid off and discharged.
Reported from Sharon, Pa., that a general reduction of 10 per cent in wages of furnace employes has been made throughout the Shenango valley.
Strike of all the ore handlers at Marquette, Mich., for an increase of wages. About 800 men out.
A company of militia ordered from Joliet to Braidwook, 111., to put down the striking miners.
Strike of puddlers' helpers of Potts town, Pa., Iron Co. against Hungarian labor.
THE Crawfordsville Journal, of recent date, speaking of the trouble among the miners at Brazil and Knightsville, said: "It is only a political scheme gotten up by Yorhees, Gray & Co.
MRS. COOK, of Knightsville, and wife of a coal operator of that place, who has been visiting at Mrs. J. W. William's, at New Market, in conversation with them, said: "I have never seen such distress and suffering as there is at Brazil and Knightsville, among the coal miners. The future looks very dark. She also says these poor men have been terribly misrepresented by some of the Republican Journals of the State." Mrs. Cook spoke of the past three years as being prosperous times for the miners in that section.
A SLOP-OVER performance at commencement exercises last week was the interruption of the program by the President of the college to introduce Gov. Hovey to the audience. The people did not assemble there to see him, a majority of them think and care as much about him as they do for the passing wind, and the performance was far fetched. Hovey may be some body by the almost accidental election of himself to the position of Governor of Indiana, but he Is a thundering poor Governor, an officious fool, a ninny, and will pass into obscurity much quicker than he has come into prominence.
THE application of Gov. Hovey to have a rehearing in the cases of Riley and Carson, two democrats appointed by the last legislature to the charge of the benevolent institutions, has been overruled by the Supreme Court and he is compelled to issue to them their commissions. With men of good common sense this would be a sufficient hint to at once let up in his petty partizanism but to a man of the boundless egotism of the present occupant of the gubernatorial chair it will probably have little effect, and like a dumb animal he will have to be forced into doing what he should do in every instance.
Two men, Miller and Williams, of "Marion county, who allowed a number of inmates from the poor farm of that county to vote, were, on a plea of guilty, heavily fined by the U. S. court one $250 and the other $50. This is correct, regardless of which party they may vote for. It has been the custom for the workers and bummers in almost every county of the State to run in a lot of idiots from the poor asylum and vote them. It should cease, and this Marlon county transaction should be a warning hereafter to keep the paupers at home upon election day,
POLITICS has exhibited some strange features in this country within the past few years. When the Know Nothing party was in existanco its members had been Whigs and afterwards became Republicans when that party was organized. The Know Nothing organization was bitterly opposed and fought against by all foreigners, and especially by the Irish people, as it opposed everything at all favorable to them. Now the secret organization known as the Clan-na-Gael is composed, it is stated altogether of Irishmen and all of them repub. licans.
N. J. CLODFELTER, who pays little attention to politics, has been tendered a $5,000 position in South America, but will not aceept. Poor Mike White who has been a faithful worker in the republican party from its organization cannot even get a'proraise of the Crawfordsville post office by the Harrison administration, Politics don't always play fair with

THE public should not lie paralyzed at the supposed efforts of Micheal Price, county commissioner, to reduce taxation. He is simply playing the demagogue, aud is making a bid for re-electlou, or figuring for some cheap office freafter. He played very similarly when a member of the city council, but his party soon fund him out and he ran for couucilinan no more. If he is so anxious to cut down expenditures let him have tho board make an order appropriating $2.00 per diem out of the $3.50 per diem of the salary allowed him as commissioner toward a reduction of the debt of the )uuty. This would leave him $1.50 per day his precious time devoted to cutting down aims against the county, and which would be ample compensation. Come now Michael if you are not play lug the demagogue here 1* where you can get in some honest work In your own behalf as well as for the people.
THE two bummers aud bruisers, Sullivan aud Kilraiu, are matched for a fight near New Orleans, on the 8th of next month for a stake amounting to $10,000. It's a grand civilization of ours when such contests are allowed everywhere in the United States. If both of these thugs were arrested and sentenced to an imprisonment of about ten years each In the penitentiary it would boa better indication of respect for laws, decency and refinement than anything else we know of.
THKT appear to have one man, Burke by name, "dead to rights" as guilty of the murder of Dr. Cronin, of Chicago, He was arrested at Winnepeg, Manitoba, which country is under the control of England. He will have to be extradited, but that government which is always on the hunt of any of its alleged enemies, will undoubtedly turn him over to the Chicago authorities. The evidence against him is very strong, everything going to show him guilty with other parties of the cowardly crime.
SIMON CAMERON, the well-known Pennsylvania politician, is neariug death's door. He is an instance of the height and depth to which politics can lead, and have led, men. In his day he appears to have controlled the political destiny of his State as a king would his subjects. He has asked for no official favors for himself and friends that lie has not been able to secure, yet he did this through corrupt and disreputable means, and the people of his State have no particular reason to keep green his memory.
UNDER the new laws township trustees now in office hold only for the term for which they were elected. A trustee will be elected in ev. ery township in the State next April who will hold in his office for four years, and be ineligible for re-election until a full term of four years has intervened. At the election next spring trustees who have served but two years will be eligible for re-election those who have held office for two consecutive terms will not be eligible.
THE fly-fishing club has finally caught and convicted one man guilty of violating the fish law, Kernoodle by name. He used a net for catching fish and has paid $5 for the privilege. Let the club continue in the good work and have every man so mean as to use a sein or dynamite to secure fish arrested and fined. There are doubtless dozens of other men needing the same treatment as Kernoodle and we trust they will get it
THE wife of Hon. Rutherford B. Hays, a noble woman, was stricken with paralysis at her home at Fremont, Ohio, last week, and ber life now hangs upon a very slender thread.
Reports of Viewers.
The various viewers appointed by the Board of County commissioners to go over and examine the different toll roads in this township and set a price on the same made their reports as follows:
There are 4.2 miles of the CrawfordsTilleand Waynetown turnpikes in Union township and the viewers valued it at $3,885. The 6.85 miles of the same road in Wayne township were appraised at $2,857.50. This valuation includes the righf of way, cuts, fills, gravel, culverts of every kind and bridges and all superstructures.
Crawfordsville and Northwestern turnpike. Ten aud eight-tenths miles. It consists of two branches, Terre Haute and Greencastle valued at $8,640.
Crawfordsville and Northeastern. Main and Poor Farm branches. Seven and seven-tenths miles, $1,952.
Crawfordsville and Northwestern. Three and nine-tenths miles, $1,560. Crawfordsville and Southeastern. Four and three-quarters nnles in Union, $3,300. Sixtysix one hundredths of a mile in Walnut,
200.
Crawfordsville and Yountsville. Six and seventeeu-tenths miles in Union. $6,895. Eighty-four one-hundredths of a mile In Ripley, $1,200.
Crawfordsville, Smartsburg and Eastern. Three and fifty-five one-hundredths miles in Union, $2,200. Three and ninety-five one-hun-dredths miies in Franklin, $500.
From the above it will be seen that there are 41.07 miles of toll roads in this township and that they are valued at $28,412. If the turnpike companies agree to accept this valuation the commissioners can order an election.
"One Foot In The Grave." How often do we hear the above said of some poor pilgrim o'er life's thorny path, whose tottering step, pallid face, unnatural glitter of the eye and hacking cough, and its accompanying involuntary pressure of the hand over the lungs, the seat of the dreadful disease—consumption—that causes the remark? Too frequently, alas! and in the interests of sucb unfortunates this is penned, to assure them that their steps need tend no longer toward that narrow receptacle that awaits all—that is until life's alloted space is covered—from any such cause, for the scientific researches of Dr. R. V. Pierce, resulting in the Golden Medical Discovery, have wrested from Nature a remedy which never fails to cure this scourge of our race (which is really nothing more nor less than Scrofula of the lungs), if taken in time. Druggists sell it.

The Makers of a Well Known Churn write:
"We have been often asked by dairymen: 'What is the very best soap to use to properly cleanse dairy utensils We have invariably replied, the 'Ivory,' but as for giving specific directions for washing dairy utensils, it is rcaliy summed up in making them thoroughly clean. Boiling water must be used, and that, in connection with IVORY SOAP, will thoroughly cleanse and deodorize the wood, leaving it clean and sweet for further use. Any dairy utensils half cleaned will spoil the delicate aroma of gilt edge butter,' which may be perfect in other respects."
A WORD OF WARNING.
There are many white soaps, each represented to be' just as good as the'Ivory' they ARE NOT. but like all counterfeits, lack the peculiar and remarkable qualities _of_the genuine, Ask for "Ivory" Soap and insist upon getting it.
