After the war Mr. M Kinney studied for the ministry, g ro New “York in 1870.

Thomas L. Thompson was born at Charles- ton, West Virginia, May 31, 1838, went to Cali- fornia in 1855, and started the Petaluma Journal, the first paper established in Sonoma county. In 1860 he purchased the Sonoma Democrat at Santa Rosa, now the | center of a great fruit and wine producing sec- tion, and has been identified with it as editor and’ publisher over thirty years. In 1862 “Mr. Thompson was elected secre- tary of tate on the ticket with Gov.

A SIGNIFICAN The President's Policy in Kegard to Army Appointments. The first of the three vacancies that have existed in the army since the change of admin- ration was filled today by the appointment of Lieut. Frederick Von Schrader, twelfth in- fantry, as an assisiant quarcermaster in the army with the rank of captain, ‘This appointment is significant as indicating | that the President has virtually decided to ad- here to his former policy of selecting army officers who show special qualifications for aj ointments in tho sia fl in preference to civil ns. Inthe case of Licut, Yon Schrader it is said the President was governed by the oft- cer's efliciency record aud the good service ren- dered by him while acting quartermaster at Fort Leavenworth. Licut. Von Schrader had become entitled to promotion to the grade of captain in the line, and although he has not yet been commissioned he would becomeacuptain on the first vacaney in the grade above him. It was held that this fact preciuded his transicr to the staff, but that the President did not think so is shown by his action. Army officers are congratulating themselves on this appointment, as it was feared that the staff vacancies might possibly be filled from civil lite as rewards for political services, ‘The belief is now general, however, that such vacancies will hereafter ‘be filled ex- clusively from the line. There is good reason to believe that this rule will apply to the va~ cant paymastership, which, like today’s ap- pointment, is open to civilians, This office is the one to which Lieut. Dapray was nominated, but not coufirmed.

SIESE ENG SEIS, THE’ BOARD REORGANIZED. Changes in the Magazine Gun Board by Sceretary Lamont. ‘The Secretary of War has issued orders re- | lieving Lieut. Col. Joseph P. Farley, ordnance department, and Capt. George 8. Anderson, sixth cavalry, from duty on the army board j reconvened to test magazine rifies, and detail- ing Col. J. C. Bates, second infantry, and Maj. Francis Moore, fitth cavairy, in their places. While the changes are undoubtedly due to com- plaints that the old board was biased in favor sires it understood that no reflection is cast on Col. Farley and Capt. Anderson, who were re- Kieved “because of the necessity for their per- sonal presence at their own commands,” and also in order to remove all possible cause of complaint on the part of inventors desiring to enter the competition. ——<—<— ee Changes in Immigration Instructions. - Col. Stump, superintendent of immigration of the Treasury Department, says in reply to the criticisms made by Senator Chandler that the immigration law approved March 3 last went into effect upon its passage. It became necessary in carrying it out to issue from the ‘Treasury Department instructions to put the law into force, During the press of business ineident to the coming in of anew administra- tion errors crept into these instructions. Re- | cently a subcommnitee of the Senate commit- | tee on immigration, consisting of Senators Faulkner and Chandler, waited upon Secretary Carlisle in reference to the instractions, and as & result of the conference the errors in the first instructions were corrected and the following substituted in their stead: and abrogated. The “Article 18 is withdraw ticket to be delitered to each immigrant or | head of a family, according to section 2 of the (immigration act, and article 14 of said reguia- tions, may be given io the immigrant prior to or at the time of embarkation, or at some time | | Sensational York, Mra.

Dr. Everett is hardly more acceptable to a large number of democrats in the district than Barrett ig to a certain republi- Jean contingent. It is « question of getting out the vote rather than @ test | of the political complexion of the district. Last fall Lodge had over 17.000 votes and Everett over 15,000.
