The best suggestion We have seen comes
from the Philadelphia Times, which is to
the effect that President Garfield be in
duced to invite Arthur to the Presidential
Chair during his inability to perform the
duties. There are pressing executive
acts to be performed. and OF course Gar.
field is unable TO attend to them, even IL il
should be required Of him. The President
has full warrant under the Constitution
for such a course, aud he is the only per.
son whose authority to summon the Vice
President would be unchallengej. The So
luton Of the problem is easy, simple and
safe, and II the public interests require an
acting Executive, President Garfield is
fully competent and authorized to meet
the want without surrendering his right
to name the Presidential prerogstives at
his pleasure.
