Morton as q Power,

II Mr.. Morton has any personal interest
at stake in the third term issue he makes
no sign. He is mighty power here. He
is master of the situation as far as the adj
ministration of affairs is concerned and
no one disputes his claims to party leader
ship. Seeing the crowd Of applicants for
office by which he is beset, one would sup
pose he held monopoly of government
patronage. Why, there are men here after
place from morning until night. He gives
them audience in the parlor or reception
rooms, and sometimes there are men
in waiting In each place, with a
pretty large reserve in the office. withal
he never loses his patience, and II unable
to grant favor has the credit of softening
the disappointment of the applicant by the
kindness of his refusal. His own parlor Is
q reception room, but II 10 either filled with
personal friends or Is O sort OF q privy coun-
Gil chamber of the government, with the
door closed on members of the cabinet.
Now 1t is Secretary Brlstow in conference;
now 1t Is q summons from the white house;
now 1t is Secretary Jewell chatting with
your townsman Eggleston, who, In the alb
sence Of the senator, Is keeping house, 80

The Congressional Liquor Inquiry.

A bill has Just been introduced into con-
gress providing for tho appointment of
commission consisting of five persons,
whose duty it shall be to examine exhaus-
lively the whole so-called "liquor question"
in all its phases, and its relations to re-
venue, health and crime. The bill sppro-
pirates $4,000 to defray expenses, and
provides that the members of the board
shall receive no compensation for their
services. No bill before congress is more
important than this, for it is pregnant with
the greatest issues which affect society.
1t is bill Wilhelm temper 1t were
better to display oftener-has no partisan
purposes to serve which seeks, in Stats
tical inquiry, for basis for legislation.
Surely no subject which can possibly en-
gage the attention of congress needs more
careful investigation than the liquor traffic
and its belongings. No one pretends to
ignore the evils of Incorporate spirit drink
ing, and no well wisher of his fellow me n
but will hail the proposed measure as
matter which augurs well, both for those
who make our laws, and for those for
whom the laws are made.
Human ingenuity has, so far, exhausted
itself in at least measurably vain endeavors
upon the temperance question. The sub.
ject has engaged, as yet, but little discus
sion in judicial temper nor has it yet
had that full and comprehensive treat ment,
which can only be made by great patience
and ability, conjoined with exhaustive
scientific enquiry. The question, with all de-
ference to the self-styled advanced temper
ance men, IL a many sided one. While il
is commonly regarded only in reference to
morals and criminal jurisprudence it should
include health as well as finance. The
temper in which 1t is commonly discussed
is not always amiable. The ability with
which 1t ia commonly handled Is not always
the most pronounced. 1t is hobby on
which fiedgling publicists are wont to
ride theme permitting the washiest
platitudes, and condoning the most arrrant
grammar and the most glazing solscisms OF
taste a subject on which verdant sopho-
mores may pour out their stores of vapld
bathos and yet 1t is unutterably mourn
full ; "Sad as the winds which sweep

many times day Treasurer New may be
seen going In and out. The treasurer, by
the way, holds his own In the management
Of affairs. He is not large man, and Is
90 quiet and unobtrusive that he would not
be noticed l., crowd but for the manly
face and finest eyes In Washington, but his

Mr.. Morton has a great many friends
among the democrats, and, as have had
an opportunity of observing, is not with
out strong friends in the south. 1t has
come to be pretty well understood that
