Its not surprising that the distinguished
honor of dinner at the White House ten
dered ex-Secretary Bristow should excite
conjecture. The courtesy is really due to
the sturdy ex-secretary as compensation
for the unworthy treatment which his
honest official conduct obtained for him
from the late administrator; it is emf
nently fit that public official whom Presi-
dent Grant forced out of his cabinet for
doing his duty should be readmitted to
the White House with special marks of re-
spect and appreciation by Mr.. Hayes.
But it is surmised that the courtesy pos
sesses deaper meaning than this. There
were other presidential aspirants defeated
at Cincinnati, and not one of them has
been similarly honored. Mr.. Conkling
and Mr.. Blaine have both been in sight of
the White House for three months, but
we do not hear that either OF them shas
been invited to a banquet within its stately
walls. Besides, the Bristow dinner at the
White House comes Immediately after the
Bristow dinner at Boston-and both to-
gether certainly do appear to have presl-
Dental significance. They are sufficient to
provoke the question: Has the Hayes ad-
ministration adopted Mr.. BristoW as its
protege and heir, as the Jackson admins
tration adopted Mr.. Van Buren,?
The ex- secretary has good material ir
him, undoubtedly. He is the broadesI
and best man in the republican party, and
if Mr.. Hayes shall succeed in fairly inaug

form which he and his secretary of the in
terror sincerely desire, Bristow, as his sue
cessor, would supply the vigor and resolu
