THE selection uf Mr.. Pierreponi for
Attorney General is an extraordinary
move for President who is bending all
his energies to secure third term. Mr.
Pierrepont was among the first to de
uOunce the proposition, and at AN inn
mense meeting in New York last Octo-
ber put himself on record publicly to
that effect, pronouncing the cry Of third
term ''mad deIusion. " which is precise
ly what it las paeu. Nevertheless it is
a. idle TO suppose that the Democrats
will abandon Il cry which las produced
such Il scare, as if is to suppose that
many tiMid souls will not continue 10 be

The name OF Mr. Maxwell was presented,

his honesty, his fitness for the post or his
fealty to Democracy. But he was

Some members may attempt to oppose
this Catholic dictation, but they will be
whipped into the party traces without
any great difficulty. Democratic leaders
know that their chances of success this
