The Chic.ago Journal is agitating a sleeping car reform. Tbe reform most grateful to the traveling public of tbie country would be extermination ot persons who habitually indulge in protracted conversations behind the curUics of their berths.

It is uot astonishing that life becomes unendurable to men and women who have seen their cherished plans miscajry, faithful and conscientious work eod in failure, and have lost their faith iu humanity, Bat there must be something seriously amis?, when children recklessly end their existtnee by self-murder. The pressure of modern life without doubt, weigh3 to3 heaviiv upon both young acd „old. Grown people are overworked, hurried and harrassed and the burdens imposed nptn children are equally unendurable. There are too much education, :OJ much ni cipHning in same directions and not enough to othere. Those wbo are not cultivated to death, are indulged and humored until they have no cotaprehen&icn of self-de-nial and self-control Suicide among

BrazilRegister: "The removal from office of tho man who refused to haul down the American da* at Fort Sumpter was probably to maSe room for the Democrat who fired the first shot on .that memorable fort. The world moves!"

Greencastle Times: "The president thinks there ii a marked difference beween a Democratic official who makes speeches in support of the administration and a Republican official who makes Bpeaches against it. The one is 'pernicious' but the other is perniciouser."

Attica Ledger: "The door to respectable independence is as wide open to-day as ever in the history of the race. The troublq is that so many want to go through it with the band playing and a flag flying forty feetjabove their heads. The door to success is not that high, and that is the reason BO many fail to see it. It is there, however."

South Bend Tribune: "In every branch of trade styles a constantly changing and improvements making, and the craftsman who is not prepared to meet and study them as they arise will very speedily find himself in the rear—'left.' What is termed 'learning a trade' is merely a course of study that teaches one how to learn, just as a knowledge of t^ie alphabet is a key to all knowledge."

Warren Republican: "The Montgomery county board of commissioners have decided that Goben, the auditor elect of that county, is ineligible, upon the ground that before aud at the time of his election he was a defaulter in the sum of several thousand dollars as the retiring treasurer of that county. Brown, the Republican who received the next highest vote, and the contestant, will be tbe auditor.

New Albany Ledger: "'There is no denying the fact that the turning question of the hour in national Democratic politics is the distribution of the office?.' So says the Washington correspondent of the Indianapolis Sentinel. Shades of Jefferson, ana Jackson, and Tilden! Has it come to.this? Is there nothing left of the Demooratic party but spoils?

Mrs. Wa'iknp emphatically denies the scanda lous stories regarding herself and exSenator William Pitt Kellogg, and states that while Kellogg did accompany her in a Pullman, so, also, did her sister, who was her companion in the sleeping berth. Her guardian, William Jay, is very indignant over tbe outrageous lies, as he calls them, of the Fort Worth specill correspondent. Mrs. Walkup left here^this -afternoon OD her way south, where fhe proposes to wind up her affairs and move to Chicago, and there make hrr home with her mother.

The president purchased Oak View, and thus brought about another controversy with the newspaper ir^en. They have hinted that too many explanations have been made about what ought to be merely an ordinary purchase which any private citizen might make. The chief executive snd his henchmen retaliate by calling the .Washington correspondents a set of blackmailers, whereupon they have prepaied a statement showing tnat twenty-five of them pay taxes on real estate in the district of Columbia, nearly all of them over one -hundred dollars a year, and ethers much more than that. Combfpcd they pay more taxes into the district treasury than the president, the district commissioners and the police officers. Some pay twice as much as the president. This ie an encouragement to newspaper people everywhere. It is well known that the president is a prosperous person financially, and increases his prosperity by a gaod deal of what the Yankees call ''nearness." jiepresentatives of the press, editors, correspondents and special writers are popularly supposed to be needy, poverty-stricken wretches, down at the heel, out at the elbow, clad in frowzy, baggy coats and tfowser?, topped off by a shcrckinsbad hat. But the times have changed. Nowadays a particularly well-dressed, happy and attractive person, wherever he may be met, in the gilded halls of wealth, or in the marts of commerce, may be set down as a newspaper man. Duns no longer dog his footsteps he pays cash, and plenty of it. He subsists upon delicacies and surrounds himself with luxury, and lives a life of ease and pleasure. Were not all this true it would not be possible for him to pay more tax than the president of the United btates.

A railroad man well acquainted with President Garrett, of the Baltimore & Ohio road, says that Mr. Garrett balieves in competition that so long as it is condiftted on a healthy basis he believes that it helps the transporter, the producer and the consumer. For this reason he took little stock in the rumored dealt, between tbe Pennsylvania snd the Baltimore & Ohio.

Says the Indianapolis Journal (and very sensibly): "Loanine tickets to mem bers of theatrical troupes to check baggage on, that |hey may save charges on excess baggage, is becoming entirely teo oommon. The rates that theatric il troupes are carried at, and the extra accommodations given them, should suffice without the local passenger aiding them in under handed schemes to g?t their baggage carried free."

Messrs W. R, McKeen, D. J. Mackey and Jo8?phus Collett have filed their bond of $1,200,000 in guarantee that they will file a bid for the Illinois Midland railroad to the extent of the entire indebtedness, §962,000. This was done iu accordance with Judge Gresham's decision -and nothing further has been done. Considerable curiosity is rife as to what Justice Gresham propos^ to do in the premises.

The Salem & Centralis.

Special Correspondence of the Globe Democrat. SALEM, 111., December 1.—A delega tion of citizens from Louisville, Clay county, 111., was hero to-day for the purpose of conferring with Mr. Gillette, president of the Salem, Centraiia and 8te. Genevieve railroad company, with the object of offering sufficient induce menta_ necessary to continue the road from this place to and through Louisville. III., thence to Newton and Terre Haute, Ind., instead of from here on to Altamont, there to connect with the Wabash which runs to Chicago. The delegation consisted^)! William H. Huddleson, W. H. Barbee, Ed H. Hawkins, J. M. Boyles, H. E. Watson, P. S. Haner, J. L. Black, E. D. Viokrey, Robert McCollum, John Barnes, Thad Lanchner, Theron Gould and John Murvin. President Gillette was accompanied from Centraiia to-day by Superintendent H. W Schmidt, from whom it was learned that the road had been graded southwestward from Centraiia, a distance of thirty-six miles, and that the contract for the rails had been perfected. He further stated that the object was to proceed at once to survey and grade from Centraiia here, and after the completion from hero to Nashville, the:i finish on to Ste. Genevieve. The officials of the road are desirous of continuing active work on the line until its completion, and, with that object in view, about $6,000 has been sub scribed here. •The right of way will be secured at an early day, and it will prob ably b- but a few months at most when Centralis will be directly connected by rail,

Tbe C. &E. I. Extension.

Indianapolis Journal. A party who has given the Chicago Eastern Illinois extension problem some investigation sas the article which ap peared in the Journal on December 1 is in some respects erroneous. He writes: "It is much nearer the facts to assume that the proposed extension to the I., B. it W. and the C. & E. I., so as to form a through line between Illinois and St. Louis and between Chicago & St. Louis is a two pronged affair at one end and three at the other, Sidel! being at the head of all. Here terminates the Grape division of theC. & E. I., extending twentytwo miles northeast to.Danville. Here also is a point on-the Air-line prolonged by it through an extensive coal field to a connection with the I., B. W. eight miles west of Danville, which, if built from Sidell, would also be northern extension of the^old D., 0. &0 now the Chicago & Ohio'river railroad, to the I, B. & W., under whose-pr .tection it well understood to be.

Genuine Reform.

Milwaukee Sentinel. The'Wisconsin Central Riilroad company has lesolved upon a reform which shonld be imitated by all the roads in the country. It has decided to increase the par of the porters and waiters employed on its sleeping and dining cars to an amount which will give them ample compensation for their work, and prohibits them from receiving "tips" from passengers. Orders are issued to them to receive no money from any passenger except for blacking shoes, "when reqqeated" to do so. For that service they are permitted to accept 10 cents. The passengers on the Wisconsin Centra), after this, will not be annoyed br the unAmerican sy^em ef gra uitiw to employes of the road.

THUD-CLASS POSTOFFICES.

One of 3Ir. Vilas' lteeommendatlons Which Is Attracting Attention. WASHINGTON, December 3.—In his annual report Postmaster General Vilas calls attention to a matter which has caused a good deal of comment among congressmen, and which will undoubtedly receive legislative action veiy soon. It is the matter of classification of post offices and the allowances of those of the third iss. Mr. Vilas thinks that the system which has been iu practice for some time, by which third-class post, offices are graded, is very poor also, that those of this rank should receive more financial assistance at the hands of the government. He recommends that officers of the third class getting $3,500 a year or more should 1-e given buildings to be occupied solely for postoffice purposes, anil that there should be additional services. He recommends that such offices should be leased by the government and given allowances for fuel, li^ht and clerical force to ah amount not in excels of box rent and commission.

Por several years congress has been practicing a kind of by-play or burlesque in the matter of providing/buildings for third-slass postoffices. It has been making an appropriation for the leasing of buildings for these offices which has been equal to^about per cent, of the actual cost of buildings leased. The object in providing that buildings for third-class postoffices can be leased, and making an appropriation so inadequate to there quired amount, has been, and is now, for the purpose of encouraging rivalries in the small cities between localities and business, that thecitiz«ps, for the purpose of securing a location of the office, will contribute an amount sufficient to pay the rent. Tiie operation of this despicable practice has been the leasing of buildings at nominal figures and leeching the citizens for'the rent.

An officer at the postoffice department, who has much to do with leasing postoffice buildings, says that thegovernment does not pay more than 15 per cent, of the rent for buildings occupied by all postoffices of any other than the firstclasi, which are in the very largest cities. The consequence is that mercenary motives control the location of the postoffices of the* second and third-class, whereas convenience to the patrons and fair business Veasons generally, should be the controlling spirit. Knowing this as well as it doss, it is believed that congress will take the matter in har.d and afford a remedy.

THE FREE TRADERS.

Cail!*le hixl Morrison Arrive in Washington. WASHINGTON, December 3.—If there was any doubt that the free traders were still alive they would bo relieved by the statements of Carlisle and Morrison. Speaker Carlisle arrived yesterday at 8 o'clock. At 3 o'clock yesterday morning Mr. Morrison entered tKe rotunda of Willard's saying: "I have been left again, and this time it wa3 by a railroad train. We should have been here eight hours ago, but an accident delayed us. However, I am getting used to disappointment About 11 o'clock the speaker left his hotel, and soon after with Mr. Morrison disappeared. For two or three hours neither of these Democratic leaders could be found, and it-was presumed that they were enjoying a conference in some quiet place. Mr. Carlisle says that the tariff question will certainly be called up at thissession, and that it will be pushed io a vote. He also expressed the opinion that the votj in favor of freo trade would be larger than at the last session There is no change in the Democratic heart. There merely will not be as many Democratic members of the next congress as of the present one. With their reduced majority in the house theje is cot likely to be less activity cn ihe part of the free-trade Democrats than there has been. Mr. Carlisle, regardless of his greatly narrowed^ majority, will again be their candidats'forspeaker, and any protection Democrat will have poor show against him. What is more, the Kentucky free traders will get the votes of Randall and of 8owden and Ermentrout, and all tariff as wejl as free trade Democrats of Pennsylvania, and when Mr. Ctrlisle is thus re elected he will organize the ways and means committee in the interest of free trade a3 directly and unmistakably as he has done heretofore. That is a leading feature of the Democratic policy, and the overwhelming majority of the Dem ocrats in the house have uo more intention of departing from it than they have of holding a caucus in the moon. The Morrison bill is on the calendar and will naturally be reached in time. Mr. Randall is not among those who thins the free traders have been so much subdued as to make that measure less dangerous than it was last session. He is giving unusual attention to the situation, and is working hard on the appropriation bill?, in order to have them ready to antagonize the Morrison measure when it is reached.

The Agonies of I-usnbjgo. EAST RIVER NATIONAL BANK, I NEW YORK, Marc^i 10,1886. It gives me great pleasure to add my testimony in favor o' your very valuable Plasters. Last October I had a viry se vere attsck cf Lumbago and suffered untold agony could not turn in bed or get in any. position without assistance, and with pain almost unbearable the folks suggested AUcock's Porous Plasters. As soon as possible I had one applied to the small of my back, and to my great surorise I experienced almost instant relief I continued wearing it until entirely cured, and am happy to say that I have not had the slighest symptoms uf Lumbago since. They are a wonderful and valuable Plaster for Lnmbago, and I take much pleasure in recommending them. W. 8. PHILLIPS,
