The resignation of Joel R. Erhardt as
Collector of the Port of New York is a
notable event in the political history of
the country, and has a greater signiricanee
than appears at first glance. Though his
resignation has been in the hands of the
President for several weeks, Mr. Erhardt
has steadily refused to give the reason for
his resignation until Wednesday, when
the President accepted the resignation
and named his successor. According to
the telegraphic dispatches, Mr. Erhardt
gives the following reasons for his resig
nation :
I resigned because the Collector has been re
duceiltoa position where he is no longer an
independent officer, with authority conamen
•urate with his responsibility. I nave glvea
bonds for $2oo,eH>o. I have received for the
Government during the twenty months last
past $382,697,135, and :\ small time was per
soniilly responsible for enormous values in
money ana merchandise. My dnttes are
D6OI narlly performed UUKM-gb about 1,500
employes. lam not willing to continue to toe
responsible for their oonduct unless I can
have proper authority over them. The recoil
policy of the Treasury Department has been
to control the details of the customs adminis
tration at the portofNew York from Wash
ington ut the dictation of a private Individual,
having no official responsibility. The Col
lector Is practically deprived of power, while
he is left subject to all responsibility. The
office is no longer Independent, ami I am
therefore obliged to lake this action.
There is food for rolloetion in this brief
statement of tho ex-Collector. There are
many Feeleral and State oilicers who are
placed in tho same position, anel who
tamely submit to being overridden by
political bosses rather than give up their
hold on tho office. The position taken by
Mr. Erhardt is highly creditable to him,
and his independence will be applauded
by all honest and self-respecting nun.
The office of Collector of the Port of New
York is ono of tho most important within
tho gift of the President, and there are
plenty of men who are willing to fill it
even if they are allowed very little to say
in the disposal of its enormous patron
age. A self-respecting man might be per
fectly willing to hold the oiliee and con
duct it entirely according to the wishes
of the President, oven to the appointment
of sub-officials and clerks, but it is not
the President who forces upon tho Col
lector all sorts of incompetent people,
and practically runs tho aflaiis of the
office. It is the political boss who is be
hind tho throne, anel who is permitted by
the President to name the men who shall
fill the places In the customs offices.
Every Collector of the Port of San Fran
cisco has haei the same experience to a
greater or less extent. There have been
men in the Custom-house in San Fran
cisco during every administration who
e-ould not be reached by tho Collector
because they have had a political "pull"
stronger than that of the Collector him
self.
The same rule has applied in certain
State offices in California. Every body
knows that during the last aelministra
tion certain Stato officials had practically
no control over the poople supposed to
be in their employ. Every position was
filled by the pe>!itie_d boss who had i
"pull." "Whilo the evil is not so great
under the present administration, there
is still enough of the old system left to
cause comment. It is all wrong. The
person appointed by the Executive to a
position as the head of a department
ought to havo the appointment of his
subordinates anel absolute control over
them, without interference by tho ap
pointing power or any of his friends. It
Wfca mainly because of this abuso that
the people of the State demanded that the
Printer -feould bo elected by the
people instead of being appointed by the
Governor, anei the demand was co load
and strong that the Legislature was com
pelle'dtoniakothechango. It wasacliange
that ought to have been made long ago,
and will be (bond to be in tho interest of
good government.
J. Sloat l'assett of Elmira, New York,
who has been appointed by tho President
to succeed Mr. Erhardt, is well known in
Sacramento. He is the son-in-law of
Mrs. E. IJ. Crocker. Mr. 1-assett repre
sents his district in the Senate of New
York, and is the loader of the Republi
cans in that body. He has l>een very act
ive in reform movements, and will no
doubt make a creditable record as Col
lector of the Port of New York, provided
he is permitted to havo anything to say
about the management of it.
At tho lato unveiling of Valentine's
bronze statue of General Stonewall Ja« k
son at Chaneellorsville, it was tlenion
stratetl that bis was a character that has
not lost in tho respect paiel to it at tho
South, now that a quarter of a century
b&a elapsed since tho fortunate overthrow
of the cause to which he devoted his life.
In the affectionate admiration of the peo
ple of the South he occupies a place next j
to that of Robert E. Lee, and the unveil
ing was made the occasion for enthusi
astic tributes to his memory. Like Sheri
elan on the Union side in the great strug- j
glo he was intrusted with duties that j
gave ample scope to all his remarkable j
enterprise and energy. His sobriety of
demeanor and profound and simple piety ]
furnished for many observers a curious
offset to tho extraordinary rapielity and
daali of his military methods, so that the
two lent each other all the more effect by
their surface contrast. In reality both
were tho perfectly congruous manifesta
tions or expressions of the same serious,
fervent nature, prompting him to do with
his whole heart whatever he conceived to
be his duty.
_»
The hopelessly conflicting accounts
which the telegraphic dispatches from
China give of the riots now prevailing in
the Empire seem to reflect the ignorance
and uncertainly in which even the best
informed foreign residents aro left. Vari- j
ous hypothetical explanations are given,
such as the machinations of the Koloo
llin, a secret society originally a military
benevolent organization, but now politi
e-al and revolutionary; hatred of for
eigners in general; hatred of missiona
ries; hatred of the Pekin Government,
aud hatred of the Viceroy of Nanking.
As far as obtaining information from
native sources is concerned, the elifliculty
is to break through tho mask of official
falsehood, and to discriminate between
ignorant or obsequious anel intelligent
anel honest informants.
_»
The Republicans of Ohio are much
more pleased with the silver plank in the
Democratic platform than the Democrats
are, and with very good reason. Tho Demo
crats have made a grand mistake, and it
will probably result in a victory for the
Republican party in the coining State
election. There is too mue-h peril in
volved in schemes of inflation and de
preciation of the currency to make it safe
for any party to countenance anything
that threatens it, and the Democratic party
in Ohio will learn tliis fact on election
day.

A sU(i(;i:sTie>N is made by tho Sau
Francisco Wasp that pugilists cease bat
tering each other, and test their powers
of endurance by capacity to resist the
electrical current. Thus the fellow who
can stand the greatest number of volts
without being "knocked out" should be
declare el tho best man. . Thero is sense in
that idea. It would at least be less de
moralizing to the public than bruising
matches, and if in every contest the cur
rent killed one of the men it would be no
loss.

The Bureau of Statistics of the Treas
ury Department has issueel a review of
the foreign commerce and immigration
of the United States during the fiscal
year ending June .'.O, 1891, which shows
an excess of £31,436,100 in our exports for
the nine months since tho aeloption of
the reciprocity clause in tho tariff bill
over the previous nine months. This is
a gooel showing and indicates what may
bo accomplished by the extension of the
reciprocity principle to all countries.

IJlll'erent Species.
The buffalo ol Italy and other parts of
Southern Europe is of an entirely dii.eront
species from tlie bison—usually but erron
eously called buffalo —of North America.
Smaller than that animal, it is yet larger
and mote powerful than our domestic
ox, with large horns, wddch it lays back
upon the shoulders when walkingor run
ning, owing to a habit of carrying
the bead w-ith the muzzle pro
jecting forward, lt is a native of tbe
East Indies, and was introduceel into
Italy in the sixth century. As it is very
hardy in warm climates and marshy
lands, and adapted to carrying loads, it is
a useful be*ast of burden, though the Ilesh
is not as gexxl as that of the ox. The fe
male gives a largo quantity of milk of a
\, iv good quality. There is also a
buliaio In Southern Africa which is
usually called a distinct species, and is
known as the Cape bullalo. This has
never been domesticated, but doubtless
might be tamed and used if taken young.
It la very large, standing ">Affe lt hi .h anel
measuring Bfeet8feet from horns to root of
tail. The horns are large aud long, anel
carried ill th. same mauner as those of
the species spoken of.

Thrower of America, and holder of the

In lhe early spring when starting in to
