Hat Fight Over a Postmaster 'ship. Other Notes. From ()ur lleguiar Correspondent Washington, May 3, 1837. Mr. WcKiuley has fully made (Up his mind to curtail some of the extensions of the civil ser vice rules made by Mr. Cleve land, but he lacks the nerve to do so unlil public opinion has been worked-up a little on the- subject. That is why members of his cabinet and other promi nent officials are making public their opinions against those rules. Ol course every body understands that the rules do not keep the preseiit,deaio;rr nrnnnHnrR ftf thrt rloUsaoiT'Tritc "3F-" . keep those republicans who are not already in the government service out of office. And that is the milk in the cocoanut. Promises have been made that h?9wgofc- to be kept, and the Jonly way to keep him is to withdraw thecivirservlce'Ttrrto from some of these places. Had Mr. McKinley been a man of backbone he would simply have lescinded Mr. Cleveland's orders extending the rules and said no more about it, and that would have been a much more manly uav than this beating the devil arouud the bush in order "to make it appear that the public demands their ab rogation; when every body knows that the public doesn't care a continental who fills the minor offices under the govern ment. TbeDingley tariff bill should now be known. as the Allison Aldrich-Platt bill, since those three Senators have added more than a thousand amendment& to the bill, which was today laid befoie the full finance committee of the Seuate. The amendments have not made the bill any less objectionable as a whole to democrats, but some of them have started man7 re publicans to kicking at a lively rate, but there is no likelihood that any of them will kick out of the party traces. There hasn't been a determin ed fight made in the Senate against any appointment yet made by Mh McKinley, but if he persists in trying to make J. V. Lyons, the negro member of the Republican - National Committee from Georgia, post- master at Augu-ta Ga., there will be a fight and a very bittef one, too. The-entire Georgia Congressional delegation made a respectful protest against ap pointing this nesro nostmaster at AugUSta, taking the grohnd I t. . .i - - 1 e 1 that there were plenty of places f : t . 11 .1. .. in paying iusl as wen li at coma r J " - b' glve" "lm where the per- f6rmance of his official duties j would not necessitate constant frritation of the entire business interests of a city and the -reat part of its dodii . fon probab,y nin telUha of i ., . . its mail receiviiiir population- - r. ?3K. ti-. , i "T-ifrcafS -ujt ar rrtrr r --'fKtMTr"''v -. understand that lie wns oppos ed to making this negro post master at Augusta, but it seems that the negro, who was a Mc Kinley whooper np previous to tlie St. Louis convention, had boss Raima's positive promise of the postoffice, if McKinley was nominated and elected, and that he has refused all offers of other places, although some of them carry more salary and in sisted upon being nominated postmaster at Augusta. The Georgia Senators believe they can defeat his nomination mi the Senate, and it is certain that the will fight it to the last ditch, and hang it up if theyj can't defeat it. "Oh, its just the regular igapdulurn swing," is the sub- tance of what members of the ation siy when their altntioificailed to tlie large r ' 'ir . amount of 2old-?aHKiin 87,000,000-lengagttd 1 in New York for shipment to Europe, "and it will all come back again in the fall to pay for our crops." t They may be right; but those with goodVmera ones have not forgotten that Secrelaiy Carlisle and his as sistants talked the same way in 1S94, when nearly 102,000,000 in gold went lo Europe, and in 1895, when the value exported almost reached 105,000,000, and again in 1S9G, when it went close to $57,000,000, and they know that this gold was only brought back by issuing 8201,000.000 in TJ. S. bonds McKinley has said that he would not issue bonds, but ht has also said that Mr. Cleve land did right in issuing them when the continued demand lor gold caused-the gold reserve in the U. S. Treasury to fall be low the arbitrary limit set without any legal authority by John Sherm'an when he was? Secretary of the Treasury. Every body hopes that this r;oid raid is not made by h New York and London iiioney changers to force another issue of bonds, but that doesn't keep people from wondering what Mr McKinley would do; should it tarn out that way. Democratic employees of the Treasury Department who aie uot so unsophisticated as to ex pect to be protected by the civil service commission are prepar- iug to "get it in the neck " A committee has been appointed to investigate all the bureaus of the Tieasury Department, and to report a plan of reorgan isation that will enable the most efficient employes, to gel the largest salaries. That sounds ail right, doesn't it? But every wide awake demo crats hnows that tlie plan re ported will give the biggest salaries to the republicans, and is preparing to take his dose I of reduction with aacooderacet its he can, if he isn't." in a posi lion to show his disgust hv re signing when the reorganisa-.! tion is maue. v TURKISH S'iiORY OF .
