jietfarmeduhy conspicuous service in behalf
of the- temperance cause.
Tub Ohio Republican Committee is
aendinf? out an appeal to Republicans to
contribute to the work of the campaign so
much a* they may be willing and able to
give. The circular lias been sent to Ropublican
office-holders among others.
Upon this the Cincinnati Enquirer remarks:
"A Republican Committoe levying
contributions on men in the Government
service under a Democratic Administration
is a spectacle which invites consideration
from several stand-points."
Under the changed conditions the request
of tiie committee cannot b9 regarded as
iha tawing of a contribution.
The Republican committee has no way
to enforce its demands on Republicans
who hold ollico under a Democratic administration.
It is supposed, however, :
that those persons are still Hepablicanr,
notwithblamling their party's reverse, and
that they will not forget that they are under
soino obligation to that party. If
they are of the right metal they will contribute
as cheerfully as though overy- 1
thing had gone well with the liepublican
i'lrfyThk
Intklmokncku is unable to agree
with those DcmocraUi who regard the candidacy
of Mr. James B. Taney, of the
jidjuler, a*} presumptuous. Theso gentlemeinnust
admit that the RejuUr is the ;
foremost Democratic nowspaper in the
Stat?. There is no use of talking about
rivals. There is but ono Wheeling KegUtcr,
aud Mr. James B. Taney is General
Manager.
If a newspaper occupying this position
needs, or, let us say, desires, the postoilice
nranv oth?r oilS/?n rA Drofit it becomes a
serious question whether the party can |
atford to say it nay. And this is the real
isHtie. We do not understand that Mr. .
Taney demands tho office as a matter of
personal profit to himself, or that ho sup- 1
ports his demands with any reference to
his personal claims, however great they i
maybe. He and a majority of tho directors
ask tho postoilice for the newspaper,
that its loina may be girded for the fight .
and that the Democratic party may have
a clinmpion better furnished for the fray.
It is too early, and it is ungenerous, for
disappointed aspirants to insinuato that
tho proposed postoilice deal is in the interest
of this or that candidate for the <
United States Senate. Surely they can all
afford to wait and judgo the tree byita
fruit. I i
When this poatofflcfc fight was begun it
ought to have been understood that only
one man could draw the lucky number.
In the nature of things everybody else had
to l>o disappointed. As noon as it was
known that the party newspaper was a
candidate, it would have baen a gracious
thing if all other candidates had retired
and loft the newspaper the clear field
which at last it seems to have securcd for
itself.
We aro not discussing tho propriety of
a newspaper entering a contest for office
in'its ownlbehalf. The opinions of the
Intelligencer on this subject aro well
known. But our point ia that when) the
ne wspaper knocks the party ought to think
twice beforo it refuses to open tho door.

A DKJLIDKltATK HOMIER.
The Money Drawer* pf n liank KtnjgUaU by
a Jrtj??t?rlou? Stranger.
l) Washington, Sept. 2.?l>ateman & Co.,
banker?, of this city, were victimized ont
p of $1,100 to-day by a bank robber who
took bis tlmu and desperate chances, too,
to ro1) the drawer containing all the small
denomination bank notes. Business had
been quiet during the day, and between 2
and '.I o'clock this afternoon the clerks employed
in the batik were grouped about
kl the stock ticker in tho rear ollicd, which
t ia acparaUul from the bank proper bva
Y glats partition, watching the rise and fall i
, of the market. ,
Kx-Commipssoncr of Pensions Dudley,
0 who has a desk in the bank, aud is a ;
[> member of the flrui, entered the oflice
, while the clerks were thus engaged, just i
as a well dressed young man emerged ,
from the private rojtn usually occupied ,
B by tho senior member of tho firm, but
f who is now in New York. Nothing was '
1 thought strange bv General Dudley, and <
I rka inlrtMsv iudhpi! unmnlru'ml nut iinnn
the stroet after ho had carefully closed
f the F street floor. Probably fifteen
minutes after his departure General
Dud ley "had occasion to go to the bunk
counter from his desk, and found both
the change drawers open, and pulled out
from their proper poaition. Ho at once
called the clerks from the vicinity of the
ticker, and an investigation showed that
their interest in stocks had cost the firm
$1,100 in cash. No one seemed to be
awaro of tho prcscnco of the stranger, and
consequently no description could be
given of him (o the police, who were
quickly summoned.
General Dudley reluctantly admitted
that he could not identify him again. Balomhu's
bank occupies tho first tloor of a
" three-st?ry brick building on F street, between
Fourteenth ami Fifteenth streets,
, opposite Willard's Hotel, and the Corcoran
building, inwhlch the Main cilice of
the Western Union telegraph company is
\ situated,and adjoins the branch postofUce,
established several months ago for tirn
, convenience of tho bankers and lawyers
whose ollices line both sides of Fstreet at
I this point. Half a square away is the
, Treasury building.
A more daring robbery lias never occur
red here, and the cooluets of the operator
has probably never been equaled. Of
course, there aro all sorts of theories, but
1 nothing tangible can be obtained, the ?
most reasonable explanation being that a
the jobbers had studied the careless hab- {l
i its oi the bank clerks, ana governed luin- c
. self accordingly. No one cm n toll how v
, long the stranger was in tho bank alone; <
and tho only fmbjact of congratulation to t
" the firm is that tluve won not a larger 1
I amount in the cash drawers. Whoever ?
the robber was he has disappeared as myu- f
teriously as he camo; and as tho money i
1 was mostly in Treasury notes of the $5, 'J
?10, $20 and $o0 denominations, it ia not s
expected that it will bo recovered. An
, effort was made to kefp theatrair quint,
i and information was telegraphed bo Mr. 1
Ustenun, at New York, to the effect that
a bank sneak had victimised the lirrn out
, of the amount stated. t

1 east of here, about 9 o'clock to-night, four

' and wore about to board it. A number of t

amounts, while one man in his excite- fi
went pamed, his purao containing ?23. r
Tho robbers took whatever was offered without
scorching the passengers and v
made no attempt to rob them of a
jewelry. When tuo pair had reached tlie t
middle of car they bocarae suddenly

robbers apron# off when the tram slacken- a

The train passed on and Conductor Jus., r
Hoggs reported tho affair to tho ollicers of i
tho road from the next station. Tho train f
then proceeded on its way to this city. *
Passengers on tfje other cars knew
nothing of tho matter until it ves all ovor,

GRAVTON AND OliBBS'^BIEK ROAD.
I came up fr-;m Grafton this morning on
tho Grafton Si Grnnnbrtnr train. with a
number of the delegates, soveral of whom '
' were ladies. Oaptaiu Georgo M. Whites- ;
) carver, the superintendent of tho road ,
. was on tho train, and was politely atten- i
i tive to everybody, doing all lie could to
, make the trip a delightful one. By the
j way, allow me to say here, by wav of pa.
renlhesif, that since this road has been
, under tho managjinent of the gentleman
) above naraod it has toon ruuning very
successfully, and the /Act that the road can
b? made to pay is every day being demon- I
strated. The history he is making for i
the Grafton & Greenbrier is a strong ar- i
gument in favor of the completion oi the
narrow guage system in contemplation in

that he was elected in this Democratic
