Dur- ing the past two years my sufferings at times wore dreadful, and I had the most indescribable pains in the regions about the kidneys, the paroxysms of which ‘Were eo severe as to render itimpossible for me tosleep. While in this deplorable and discouraged condition I ‘was persuaded to try Hunts Remedy, and aftor using Jess than half a bottle my great sufferings and parox- yeme of pain were entirely relieved, and I could sleep better and longer than 1 nad in two years before, and although Iam now on my third bottle only, my im- Provementis very temarkable, and I recret that I did not know of the wonderful curative powers of Hunt's Remedy before, an it would have saved me years of suf- fering.

A Sram reporter to-day called upon Commis. stoner West for hts views on the question or policy of mixed schools. The Commissioner answered: “In the interest of both races I deprecate raising the question of mixed schools. The prejudice of face exists now; It 1s palpable—undenlabie, It may be dissipated by time and circumstances; but At ts not wise to ignore tts existence in all its force to-day, and by precipitate and Ill-advised meas- Ures, contrary to that prejudice, to Jeopardize the education of the weaker race and deprive them of the only advantage by which they can ever ex- pect to cope with thestronger. When you put the educational facilities of the Wack man in danger, you shackle bis lmbs again’ in the race of lire. Education 1s not only a necessity tor him in his strife for position with the white man, but it helps him to a soctal standing potnt that he will never attain without it. The muscles and capacity of a racer if tried toc soon will break him down in his course. Don’t force the black child’s running by putting him in the field with white children uotil the latter shall have been educated to think him their equal in all respects. Practical statesman- sbip secures what 1t can towards an end without premature striving for the momentary impractl- cable.” UPON THE SUFFRAGE QUESTION. ‘The reporter next asked Gen. West for his views upon District suffrage. He replied that if he could be guaranteed five years existence for the Present government he would say let us take it and be satisfied. “But,” he added, “unless public sentiment here crystalizes we are going to be hurt. The recent interviews in THE SraR show the dissatisfaction of the people. The democrats in Congress are going to win control of the gov- ernment by any means if they can, and they will not hesitate to injure the District tf they can gain anything by it. The civil service bill divorces government clerks from their allegiance to Con- gressmen and their former homes, We can make them vot-rs with ourselves, and thus overcome the bad element in politica I have suggested a board of five Commiasioners, three to be elected by the people and two apppotnted by the President. I would confer upon that board muntelpal legisla- tive power. I mean power over the health, police and other municipal departments; power to re- move a nu/sence when it exists without waiting for authority from Con; I would define the duties of each member w, giving one super- ‘vViston of the police, another of health depart- ment, another of ‘public institutions and so on, and authorize the board to enact ordinances for tho muntetpal regulation of the city. | The dent I would have elected by the people.” In suggesting this change Gen. West said he had no axe to grind, no personal obj ‘to gain, He believed it would subserve public interests. He said he would form this government so as not to interfere with existing financial regulations or Jeopardize the eae of half the public ex- penses by the United States, Crvit SeRviog at THE Crry Post OFFI0.—No ap- plications have yet been filed for the examina- tions to be held next Thursday for filling vacan- cles that may occur in the city post Office. Appll- cante. whos, papers have been filed ‘heretofore under the old system have been notified to make Rew applications complying with the civil ser- vice regulations. It will be two or three days be- fore these are heard from. The local examiners ‘think they will have 20 or 2% app! ine.

It was noticeable that there were none of them gathered about the telegraph offices.

It was the tmpression among some of the opera- tors that there would be a compromise that would end the strike by Monday. NOT GOING TO SHUT UP. ‘The W. U. branch telegraph office at the Post OMce department was in full blast to-day, and the operator, Mr. Saffell, sald that he was getting messages from all parts of the country. “I recelved a broker's message just now,” he continued, ‘and that is a pretty sign that they are able to work thitigs. e New York oftiee would never have taken it if there was no ce Of getting tt through.” “How is the stsike ressing?” asked Tus Star man. ible “Idon’t know.

Early yesterday morning the executive com. mittee of the Brotherhood of Telegraphers sent a letter to Gen. Eckert, in which they stated that they knew the compary was thoroughly ac- quainted with the grievances of the operators before the petition was received, and they, there- fore. expecte1 an early reply. No reply was te ceived to tols letter, and Une strike was ordered. The movement among the men was very gen- eral througuout the country. tai Western Union oMiciais state that 156 remained at BFPECT ON BUSINESS. ‘The effect of the strike upon the business of the Public was during the afternoon very perceptible, the general remark at the telegraph offices being “We will take your message, but you must risk delay.” Gen. Eckert sent the following order to general superintendents in the afternoon: RC. Clacry, G. W. Tratue, C. A. Tinker, Gene eral Superintendents: Please mstruct all offices by telegraph us follows: Until otherwise instructed, ail offices will be careful in receiving messages for transmission, to notify senders that the same can be taken oniy subject to delay, and to matling en route 1f necessary to complete the transmission fo point of address.” AN such messages taken for frapsinissicn shall have written or stamped on the face of the same, over the signature of the sender, ne moe “Accepted subject to Malling or ouner lay.” Superintendents will cause to de printed and posted tn the principal oMces of their respective districts, a plicard bearing the following Inscrip- Uon: “Notice.—Messages taken to-day ane subs Ject to delay and to mailing en route it nec ” Tuomas T. Eckert, Acting President. THE PROSPECT FOR THE STRIKEKS. Mr. John Campbell, a member of the executive committee of the brotherhood, stated last even. {og that they number 7,000 men and 1,000 women. He says that the strikers are plentifully supplied vith Tunds, as the brotherhood has a large strike ing Tund, and fs also an assembly of the Knights of Labor, and application was made several ago to the central committee of that organization for aid, which was promised them. Communica- “ons had also been recelved from several of the largest labor unions in the country, Including the Amalgamated Order of Iron and Steel Workers of Pennsylvania, offering substantial assistance in case it should be needed. Mr. Campbell thought many of the operators would succeed in getting situations. In Tegard to the prospect of the com- panies securing hands, he stated their only re- course would be in emplo; @ few third-rate operators from the country. ‘The tors had sent word none of them wi as reported.
