Grant is frightened. He is Begin
ming to make promises. The follow
ing appeared in the Times-CLronicle
Washington special:
In conversation with an Ohio re-
publican congressman day or two
ago, President Grant said that in
case OF his reelection he intended
to make general change in the Of
iice-holders throughout the country.
AS rule, he said, he did not believe
that any person who3aeld office du-
ring one administration should be
retained for tho full term of the s,,c-
ceealng one, but that it was no more
than just that I'LL faithful officers
should be free from removal until
they had served four years.
1t would seem from the above that.
Ill any event, the places which know
the present federal of1ice-holders will
Know them no morc.-&uempo,7
