Postmastcr.Gencral Keys open letter to the
Southern people on the subject of the electoral
investigation is an extraordinary affair. 1T Is,
perhaps, utterly uniustifiable besides. We do
not recall precedent for the action Of cabi-
net officer assuming to pervert and denounce
"A solemn resolution Of one branch of congress,
and it will be unfortunate if this letter Of the
postmaster general shall become such preCc-
dent. 1t is not the province OF cabinet officers
to assall the action of congress, or the action
of either house of congress There Is gross
improperly in it, even when done by so esti-
mable man and official as PostmasterGener-
al Kcy--and we imagine he Will himself recog-
nizc the fact before the matter is ended. His
letter asserts that if both houses of the Forty
sixth con gross Democratic, the majority
intend to Dust President Hayes and inaugurate
Mr.. Tildcn" If this startling assertion were
true, we might pardon even cabinet minister
for going out Of his way to make 1t. If the
Forty-siXth congress Of the United States is 10
enact Il revolution by turning out one president
and putting in another the fact ought to be
made known to the people. But how does the
acknowledgement know what the next con
grcss will do? Whence does he derive the
prcsciCnCc that authorizes him to predict the
acts of an unborn legislative body and impute
revolutionary designs to unclected senators and
representatives?
Probably it would be wiser not to have this
electoral investigation. We are not hopeful
that any good will come of it, and we fear that
some harm may come of it. But the house OF
representatives has deliberately resolved on it,
and it is not the business of any member of
the cabinet to take exceptions to that action.
We do not believe the house intends this inves-
tgatiOn as the acknowledgement unwarranta-
bly, asserts. The house is better interpreter
of its designs than Judge Key, and there is
nothing in its resolution that authorizes such
IN inference. Mr. Potter of New York, author
of the resolution and chairman Of the commit
tee appointed under it, emphatically disavows
the design of Ousting Mr.. Hayes, and it is very
certain that the people would not cOuntenance
Il violent and revolutionary annulmcnt of Mr.,
Hayes title, even if it were worse than it is
suspected to be. In short, POstmaStcr-General
KEYS letter is most ill.adviscd and uncalled-
for paper, which, like the house resolution,
will do more harm than good. There is enough
passion involved in this business already,
without the additional contribution which the
cratutouS imputatOn in this letter brings.
We fear the letter is the result of Il grave I'M
caslncsS in the administration rather than the
voluntary and deliberate product of Judge
KEYS good scnsc.-St. L0UtS RepubLicm.

opinion, and it has been published. He says:
"Hayes ought to have n fair shake" The way
the Potter committee is going for him about it
now indicates that the shake will be good,
hearty one, whatever Dick may say of its fair.

A Washington correspondent relates an Incl

A Western member of Congress loungcd into
the barroom Of a fashionable hotel one morning
recently TO ret his matutnal invgorator When
the necessary utensils were placed before him,
Uooser statesman deliberately filled the glass to
the brm with whisky. Goodness gracious"
exclaimed the astonshed barkcepcr, that isn't
drink; that's temperance lecture" The
members face lights up with an expression Of
pride whenever he relates the incident.
