The appointment of a numbeér of civilians to licutenancies in the army has | raised the question as to the real propor- tion of the commissioned officors fur-. | mished by the Military Academy at West Point. The Afmy Register for 1883 furnishes the following information on | The total numberof officers on the active list is 2,126, and of these 011, or a inority, were appointed from West Point, and the remaining 1,215 from civil life and from the army. The | appointments from the ranks number 171, or about eight per cent., leaving 1,044 as the number taken from eivil life, or more than eloven per cent. in excess of those appointed from the Academ Tt will be noted that the vast majority of the officers appointed from civil life obtained their military training in the school of the bivouac and battle field or during the rebellion. called civilian appointees are some of the best soldiers in the army, two of them Generals Terry and Miles having risen to the high grade of brigadior generals. Among these so- In the stalf corps, civilian appointees greatly outnumber the graduates from West Point. The former aggregate 344 and the latter only 221, while eight appointees are from the ranks, The medical department and chaplains num- bering 216 together [easily acsount for this surplus of civilians on the staff, while a large counterweight appears in the engineers, 106 in number, who are exclusively from the academy. The judge advocates are all civilian appoin- tees, and the academy graduates have only secured five out of the fifty-five oftices in the pay department, commonly accounted easy places. But it is remark able that while in the quartermaster’s de- partment there are only seventeen gradu- ates to forty-five officers from civil life, in the subsistence department the ratio is almost exactly reversed, it being nine- teen graduates to civilian pointees. In the line the appointments from the ranks are much more numerous than is generally supposed, there being 163 of these against 690 from the academy and 700 civilian appointees. The most note- worthy fact here is the great diffor- ence that subsists ' between the different regiments. The colored regiments all have a great majority of civilian appointees as officers, In the white regiments we find the First Caval- ry with 256 graduate, 8 civilian, and 9 army appointees, while in the Second Cavalry these numbers are changel re- spectively to 23, 17, and 2. So we find the Iirst Infantry with 12 graduate, 16 civilian, and 6 army appointces. but the Second Infantry with 8, 20, and 6. In the Seventh Infantry the graduate ap- pointees outnumber the civilian, yet in the Eighth Infantry there are 22 of the latter to only 8 of the formert Tt should be observed, however, that while the civilian appointees now out- number those from the Military Acade- my, the latter are steadily increasing in ratio, and before long will be vastly in the gmmajority. In this they are helped nnth’lyliy the fact that volunteer vet- erdns of tho civil war are becoming too old for selection, for active armyservice, but for restrictive legislation assigning places in the linefirst to the graduates of West Point. seven ap- b THE OPERATOR'S DEMANDS, The telegraphers of the United States, organized in the Telegrapher’s Brother- hood, have made a demand for a general advance in wages, a reduction of the - | hours of labor and a minimum salary of $65 a month for all line builders, While the demand is not coupled with an al luto threat to strike, it is generally un- derstood that all members'of the brother- hood will quit work to-day unless their demands are complied with, This is deplorable as it will entail in- calculable loss upon the entiro commerce of the country and seriously derange bus- iness in every section of the United Btates. Tho telegraphic system is to the body commercial what the nerve system is to the physical body. To cut off com- munication by telegraph simply means paralysis to every industrial and commer- cial enterprise. Granting at the outset, pany is a giant monopoly and - that its d | wage workers are subject to the greed of its owners and the caprice of its managers, admitting that many of the most skilled operators are overworked and underpaid, the demands made on the company are 80 sweeping, arbitrary and unreason- ic 1= | any circumstances afford to comply with In the first place, a wholesale regardless of skill and experience is un- unskilled ‘plugs’ who are getting about all they are worth. The only rational way to regulate operators is to classify them according to their skill and service. To ask that wo- men operators shall be placed on a per- fect equality with men is simply absurd, y |and would drive nine-tenths of all wo- men from the service. The company would prefer men for the same money be- cause men, on the average, can work in | more steadily and endure greater strain, besides being more reliable, Eight hours as a days work, regardless of what an extravagant demand. It would do perhaps in large cities in the main offices where there is work enough to keep men busy all the time, But in the hotels und x | in small towns it would be the height of absurdity to employ three operators to do the work of two, when the actual work does not consume more than from one to three hours a day. ‘What the brotherhood should have which the company can afford to grant without wrecking its entire business. at least for & conference between possible a collision that will not only eripple the company but on the patrons as well.

August, 1883, The August ‘‘PorurAr SCIENCE MonTHLY" is the most vigorous and bril- liant of the year. It is fairly sensational in the stiiking attractiveness of its varied contents. Its most important article is the last, and it is likely to cavise consider- able excitement among the holders of tel- ephone stock. It is notorious that the most unblushing and inconsiderate mono- poly in the history of patent-right extor- tion is the Bell Telephone Company. They say to the public: ‘“We hold the patents of a new art; we have patented talking through a wire, and the courts pronounce our patents valid; now help yourselves!” But, if the tsatements in this article are true, the whols claim is now exploded, and nothing remains for the courts but to reverse their deci- sions, and make the telephone free to the world. The art of talking through a wire was invented first, not by Bell, but by Reis, of Germany, who de- vised every one of the contrivances now working effect. He designed it for a talking telephone; he and others talked through a wire by the aid of electricity, and his machines will now do the same thing, while his inventions are long an- terior to Bell’s patents. Professor Syl- vanus P. Thompson has gathered all the proofs of the case, making a volume on the lifo and inventive researches of Pro- fessor Reir, and Dr. William F. Chan- ning, of Providence, has summarized the work for this number of “The Popular Science Monthly,” with illustrations of the apparatus and explanations of its performance that forever settle the question as to who is to have the hon- or of priorit; in these brilliant inventions, and demonstrate that this art should be opened to unrestricted public use. Dr, knflmn Allen discusses the changes that are going on in the native New England population in the light of the results of the last census. There is a masterly article by W. D. Le Sueur on **The Anarchy of Modern Politics,” that will be read with profound interest.

REVNOLDS. 0 N h ) t Anarchy in Politice. M. D. Le Sueur. in Popular Science Monthly tOr Au- st Principles are more than ever discred- ited in political affairs; parties no longer even profess them; and government and legislation are carried on at mere hap- hazard. The great object with many party managers is to get all important + | questions taken ‘“‘out of politics,” so that " | there may be nothing to embarrass the ¢ | scramble for office. The New York Sun _ | lately reminded the Democrats that their " | business was “to elect a_president,” not to reform a tariff. Seek first, it says, to “clect a president,” and all good things +| will be added unto you; but grapple with a great question like the tariff, and your opponents will surely get the better of you. Another leadingorgan observes that, now that the offices are no longer gener- ally available, owing to the passage of the Pendleton civil-service bill, for the reward of political services, there remains nothing for a victorious party but ‘‘a damned barren ideality.” =~ The strength of the language, which we reproduce with abso- lute faithfulness, may be taken as a ?| gauge of the disgust which the average politician feels when he sees nothing be- fore him but b chance of doing his duty, without any special reward therefor. The " |novel, ¢‘Democracy,” about which so s | much has been said, does not_overstate the case in the least. When Mrs, Lee, in that lively story, tells the senator, who pays her the compliment of consulting as | to the bestcourse to takeinacertain compli- cation, to do ‘‘what is most for the public good,” her counsel falls utterly pointless and abortive, simply because *‘the public good” had nothing whatever to do with the matter in hand. The senator himself could not pretend to tell herat what point f | the two things came into any kind of re- ¢ |lation with aach other. The questions involved were questions purely of self- interest, and, what ever course was taken, the country had nothing to gain. 1f we turn to England, signs are not wauting that there too the absence of po- litical principles is leading up to a crisis. n -| Secretary Teller has written an explan- - | atory letter to the commissioner of the general land office, touching his recent or- : | ders relative to the Northern Pacific land 1| grant. The secretary says that all lands , | Iying within the granted and indemnity , | limits in Minnesota and Wisconsin are t|now surveyed, and that the company must make its selections within three months from the tim that notice is given At the end of this time all lands within the indemnity limits will be restored to the public domajn and opened for settlement under the general land laws. Land Com- missioner Lamborn, of the Northern Pa- cific, says, in reference to the matter, that the letter is of no practical moment. According to him the government surveys are not yet completed, and the company are only waiting for the government to finish the work now under way. During the past two months 4,000,000 acres have been selected, and the whole work of se- lection will bo completed within the spec- ified three mnnths. provided the govern- A finishes its part of the work within that time.—Pioneer Press.
