It is now auiiouuced tliiit the Bartholdi Pedestal fund is completed. To the enterprise and public spirit of the New York World, is due the credit for the successful completion of the fund. \Vomen employed id various postoffices throughout the country are being rapidiy discharged and their places given to men. The hunger and thirst of the democratic party are such that politeness is out ofthe question.—lndianapolis Journal. Last winter’s Legislature passed a stringent law forbidding under severe penalties, all kinds of Skin games, like wheels of fortune and the like on Fair grounds. Men in the positions of fair officers are under strong obligations of duty to the community, to set an examof cheerful and strict obedience to salutory laws. A. J. Kitt, editor of the Goodland Herald, has been fippbitited Post-master at Goodland. We have a Warm place ih oiir heart for Brother Kitt, and fire very glad that he has got the office, but all the same we doh’t mind mentioning the fact that the Administration found -it necessary —to violate its civil service reform pledges in order to make a place for him by removing his prede-cessor-and a woman at that. The Austrian government has followed the example of Ital y and refused to receiveKeiley as American Minister to that nation. Keiley is the unreconstructed rebel who lately declared that the war for the union was “a gross and bloody outrage.” The story that the Administration has caused to be circulated, to the effeifj that Keiley Was refused by Austria because his- wife was a’ Jewess is not generally credited. President Cleveland has gone into the woods to have some fun for a few weeks,' and left the government to run itself. we have no fault to find with him for - indulging himself in a brief vacation from the cares of office and the importunities of the office seekers, but as our democratic exchanges were unsparing in their censure of the President’s republican predecessors for doing the same thing, an expression of opinion from them 1 upon the subject would-be very appropriate at this time

A number of prosecution's were begun in Indianapolis last week against physicians who had neglected to take out licenses under the provision of the new law, and the result was that, figuratively speaking, new doorways had to be made to accommodate the medi - •ine men who were rushing to .hr clerk’s office after licenses.' The method in which the prosecutions were conducted made the niattel' look as though it was done • more from a desire to make something; out of it than from any zeal for the public good. Ji he commission which, at the instance of the Indianapolis Mugexamined into the political methods of Aquilla .Jones, the postmaster, have givthe old gentleman a very su'ccesstul coating of white-wash. In slice of the fart that he bad*openly Jibd boldly removed efficient subm'dniates for no other reason than tbfiy were and old them so when he reiuoved ’’n-m'-the commission could not Sd that he had .violated the civil . they understood d- stid', ffidde a report that wak ; mw- «bm m pmlafory of Jones’ rnph?

How the Day was Observed.

The day of f Grant’s funeral Received proper observance in Rensselaer. The Court house, the G. A. R. hall and nearly all the business houses were heavily and tastefully draped with the usual black and white symbols of mourning. Among ;the busine-ss hquses which deserve especial mention on account of the profusion of their drapery may be mentioned The Citizens’ Bank, The Trade Palace, Hemphill & Honan’s storei Ludd Hopkins’ store, Hannahs drug store and The Republican office. The exercises of the day were udder the direction of the G. A. R. post, and the previously published programme was successfully carried out; in the presence of a very large and-sympa-thetic assemblage of people. Messrs. E. P. Hammond, S. P. Thompson; Tr~~W7 Babcock, 'J. W. Douthit and Rev. T. C. Webster were the speakers of the occasion. "Col. Hammond spoke of Grant as a commander of armies, Mr. Thompson as a civil r.uler, Mr. Babcock spoke of him 4n regard to his domestic relations, Mr. Douthit discoursed oLthe estimation in tvhich his contemporaries have held him, while Mr. Webster spoke of the noble fortitude in which the great departed bore his last sickness, and of his final heroic and triumphant death. The speakers rose to the magnitude of the occasion and the many sided Character of our ever-to-be-venerated leader were set forth in felicitous language.

An Interesting Souvenir.

By politeness of Mr. L. L. Daugherty, The Republican has long had in its possession a sac smile copy of the Vicksburg Daily Citizen of the date ol July 2nd, 1883 being the last issue of the paper before that great rebel stronghold was entered by the conquering troops oi General Grantlwo <l:iys later. A Union printer who entered the city with Grant had found the form the rebel paper and after inserting a brief notice of the surrender of the city printed a number of copies of the paper on wall paper for distribution among the soldiers. A few extracts will be found interesting : “On Dit.—That the great Ulysses—the Yankee Generalissimo, surnamed Grant—has expressed his intention of. dining in Vicksburg on Saturday next, and celebrating the 4th of July by a grand dinner and so fourth. When if ho would invite Gen. Jo. Johnstqn to join he said: ‘No! for fear there will be a row at the table’. Ulysses must get into the city before Jie dines in it. The way to took a rabit is ‘first catch the rabit’, 6'c,” The note by the Union printer, above referred to will follow here, very appropriately : —; - , t ?. - “Note —July, 4th, 1863—Two days bring about great changes. The banner of the Union Boats over Vicksburg. Gen . Grant has ‘caught the rabit:’he has dined in Vicksburg, and he did bring his dinner with him. The •Citizens’ lives to see it. For the last time it appears.on ‘Wall Taper.’ Ko more will it eulogize the luxury es mule-meat-and fricassed kitten —urge Southern warriors to such 1 diet never more," This is the last wall-paper edition, and is, excepting this not, from the types as we found them. I will be valuable hereafter as a curiosity.” The following contains a fine specimen of the abusive methods Which prevailed among the southern editors of that day, and derives a special interest from the incidental mention made of General Milroy, whom the editor evidently to bo a general of very high rank: Good News.—ln devoting a large portion of our space this morning to Federal intelligence, copied from the Memphis Bulletin of the 25th, it should be remembered that, the news, in the original truth, is whitewashed by the Federal Provost Marshal, who desires to hood wink the poor Northern white slaves. The. foormer editora of the Bulletin being rather pro .-southern men, were “arrested for speaking the truth when truth was unwelcome to Yankeedont, and placed in the chain-gang working at Warrenton, where they now are. This paper at present is in duiesg,' and edited by a pink-nosed, slab-sided, toad-eating Yankee, who is a lineal descendant of Judas Iscariot, aud a brother germain of the greatest Puritanical, sycophantic; howling sceundrel unhung—Parson Brownlow. Yet with such character, paper cannot cloak the fact that Gen. Rofit. E. Lee Tas given I lookdr, Milroy & Co cne of , the best and soundest whippings on 1 record, and the “glorious Union” is I now exceeding weak in the kness.

Chief Jus’ice Greene, ni Washington 1 Territory, in his last charge to the,grand jury, bears the following testimony to the goo-.l effect of women serving on juries: “Twelve terms of c mrt; ladies tut'l gentleman, I have n r,v held, in • 1 ' ■> 4 which women have s?ry.-d as 'grand : and petit-..jurors,- luid it is certainly a I tact ycyemd dispute " t,i.at no other twelve terms so salutary f«r restraint 'of crime ha.Ve ever !*een he!J in tin's terr’tory3 - , -
