of the presidents confidential secretary of
conspiring with revenue officers to steal
the public money has not been at the cost
of letting escape one who, if guilty, is the
most guilty of all. We are aware that,

WHITE HOUSE SCHEUING.
Tho Cry of Rebels" " TO he Raised by Re-
publicnns In the Canvass.

WAsHINGToN, Jan. 2.-Ex-Gov. Carpen-
ter, OF Iowa, who was rendered the Second
Comptrollership, has accepted. Iowa Congress-
men say that the selection had nothing to do
with helping Secretary Belknap to seat In the
Senate; that before the report that forced
Brodhead's resignation had been made, Senator
Allison was asked whether he could name a
good man for the ONCE in the event Of va.
cancy, and consultation with the Iowa deega-
ton resulted IN Carpenters selection. 1t Il as
serted that Bristow did not know what Grant
would do, but. to his astOnishment, after hear-
ing the findings Of the committee, immediate
action was taken.
But the Admins traiion is helping Belknap in
another way. There has been prepared a list
Of the ex-Confederate Generals in the Senate
and House. the names Of the Union soldiers
who were discharged from the House, and their
army record, and nm appeal Is made TO the
tlon OF Federal General to the Senate. In this
way the canvass Is 10 be begun In the West,
while the cry Of Rebel" is to be made the
shlnboleth OF the Republican party. On this
point FOrneys Chronicle to-day afhrms the ne
cessity OF redlecting Grant 1t ridicules tho
letter OF John W. Forney against a third term,
and says he Is not where he can properly Judge
of the situation. hut were he az home he would
see where lac errs. and eomprehend hat the Re-
publican party must live or die by its military
prestige, with Gen. Grant As the next nominee
OF the Republican party.

secret of the Policy OF silence on the Part OF
Washington Onicinis.

WAsHINGTON, Jan. when the Hews OF
the seizure IN Chicago reached Washington,
Treasury officials declined TO talk on the sub
ject. This was in such strange contrast with the
course pursued when the seizures were made
last May thai II called for an expanatian that
has been given. The nrst labors OF the detec-
tives last spring unfolded such enormous frauds,
duplicating Government officials Of all grades.
and So far-reaching In Its rami1caions, that II
was evident that there would be a powerful
effort made TO stop the raids. Public sentiment
would be created against them, and the purpose
10 overthrow the Whiskey Ring defeated. To
Hank any such attempt, Secretary Brlstow, with
the Presidents approval, caused 10 be pre- ared

up the seizures. The minutest details were not
omitted, and carefully prepared articles were
furnished by the department TO all the inrucn-
tial newspapers OF the North. establishing the
existence of this gigantic Ring, thus making a
retreat impossible. Whether the President
saw clearly as Brstow what must
be the effect OF cnchng public opin-
Ion in favor OF unconditional pursuit Of
all implicated Is not known, but when
1t was discovered that retreat was impossible.
II was determined to shut the mouth OF every
Government official who bad ANYTHING TO do
with seizures or prosecutions, and withho&h all
lnfurmatIon, leaving the prosecution to speak
for Itself. MIR. BristOw, however, says that there
will be no cessation Of hostilities IN any drec-
tion. Moreover, the department, with nforma-
lion Of frauds committed years ago, Is working
their ill-gotten gains, and wherever criminal
prosecution Is prevented by the statute OF limi-
tatiOn civil suit Will be brought against the
sure,ies TO recover the amount defrauded.
Secretary Bristow says the original purpose OF
furnishing information has been accomplished
and he Is satisfied that there Is no power that
can stay the progress Of the work OF bringing TO
