pointment of John q. Hartman, Esq. of
thi- city. a register in bankruptcy, leave,
the impression that this appointment by
Chief Justice Waite was almost conclu-
,iye evidence that the Chief Justice had
concluded 10 abandon the Republican
party aud become a violent Democrat.
The truth Is, political considerations did
not influence thi, appointment. The
lawyer Of Alexander county without re-
gard to party-the Republicans as well a,
the Democrats-petitioned for the ap-
p0intment OF Mr. Hartman without his
knowledge. The appointment was "A
surprise 10 him. and was high compli-
ment to hi, personal worth. but there
was mo politics in it," and 1t Is
not evidence that the Chief Justice. la,
changed hi, political coat.
