The Case of Williams.

As was stated last week. the Senate
taking action on the nomination of
Attorney General Williams us Chief
Justice. Since Mr. Williams nomina-
ton bl the President. some strange
revelations have been brought to light.
prominent among which is the fact that
aS Attorney General. Williams and fam
lily have sp"rtcd Il new $1,000 carriage
paid for ont of the contingent fund" of
the Department of Justice. and that this
elegant equipagc is manned by driver
and footman in livery, who figure on
the payroll as ''mcsSenger>." In look
ing up this matter the judiciary Com
mittcc found the following voucher at

We believe none of Mr.. Williams
friends deny this soft impeachment, but
claim in justification that this thing is
common practice in all the departments,
In fact they point To the Attorney Gen
erals predecessor for an illustration.
When the present official came into
office, there was Il carriage belonging to
the department. but Mrs. Williams is Il
lady of considerable beauty and world
~ plide, and She WAS not the one 10
don the cast-ott' traps of her predecessor,
So She orders the new landaulct.
There is disposition in some quar-
tcrs especially about Washington to

ny. and. wears afterward, entering up
on prosecutions to recover what, if its
susnicious were well founded, it WAS
the business of its officers to have seen
and collected when the goods passed
through their hands. If the revenue
officers cannot detect frauds before de-
liyerino goods. what is the use of in
spectors, weighers and appraisers The
whole system of moieties is corrupt and
ought to be abolished. The govern
ment should have officers capable of
detecting fraud when it is committed.
and if they cannot ferret 1t out with all
their advantages before goods are tax
ell from the cuStOm-hou the import
ers should be free from veXatiOus es-
pionage aftcrward.
From the Herald.
If they succeed in proving their
charges, the informer. the collector.
the naval officer and the surveyor of
the port will get big slices. and the
marshal, district attorney and clerk OF
the court will get fat fees. If they fail,
the law provides no remedy for the inn
porterS. whose books have been seized
and business character traduced. In
all this the law treats the importer as
an enemy to he won led as much as
possible. and makes him pay for the in
efficiency of its own agents. 1t Is Il
foolish. vicious law. and it makes in
competent. vicious officers.
From the Post.
There il Yet something left of the
spirit of james Otis. against which
such seizure of private books aud pa
pels iars us did the British writs of as
sistauce against his ideas. now some
what antiquated, of individual liberty.
No crowbars OF .iack->crews We're en-
ployrd to break an entrance for the
federal posse. and no special agent
clicked his handouts or Sw"re to bring
the whole army and navy of the init
ed States To his aid in compelling the
surrender: but. although these n"tori-
Gus features of other seizures We're all
sent. the animus of the fact is equally
repugmaml t" public sentiment.
From the Globe
The law under which these seizures
are conducted i. It's has been repeated

prudence of the United States. Its
provisions are ;" harsh and unjust that
its umpopulaIity Is easily accounted for.
