from period IN American history which ex-
hibts all positions in the government except
the chief one, in the hands Of mediocrity addi-
itional care should be taken to see also that the
great position Of Chief Justice is not grasped
by the same. The assembled wisdom which
was credited to exist in days gone by, when
the Senate met to deliberate, has no successor
in the servile majority that forms the
ruling power in that body to-day. OF this
mediocrity, or worse, the President must
be well aware. Is ii, then, tribute to the
these alone should be the judges upon the
Presidents nominee to the Chief Justiceship !?
In the haste to be subservient any mistake in
the appointment would be reared by blind
confirmation into the proportions Of national
Injustice crime against the democratic
right of pure appointments. Knowing this,
could any honorable man be satisfied with
such great position which would come to
him through what might, with some truth, be
shgmatized as stealth Of preparation and
hasty servility in accomplishment of the ap-
pointment thereto !? No. For ministry to
Japan or collectorship Of customs down
South we might not expect the same dainti-
ness in the ofice-holder expectant. In their
national insignifcance they might reckon on
burying their shame, if they possessed any, in
the profits of Office but the emoluments Of
the Chief Justiceship are nothing beside the
honor which should cover the holder as with
arobe. If twere sullied with the miry manner
of his appointment it could never be called
clean. Among those who have distinguished
themselves in the Chief Justiceship we have
seen that their best efforts to redeem the cir
cumstances of their appointment have not
been successful. To-day they are remem-
bered above the record Of a long life, blame
less in almost every other particular
