THE whining correspondent of Joe Me.
dill's Daily Chicago Aduildmite, who croaks
about the awful disasters which are sure
to overtake the President and this coun-
try if Governor Kirkwood is turned out
of the Cabinet, ought to know that that
gentleman resigned in September and
that he could not, therefore, be turned
out. He is retaining his position to ac-
commodate the President, who has not
yet selected his successor. This is the
case with all the Cabinet, except Mr..
Window, who has been chosen to the
Senate, and Mr., MacNeagh, who fled
from the star-route cases which his friend
A. M. Gibson had contracted should make
him famous.

IF Congress will not heed the public
demand for new and improved war YES
sells our old hulks should be taken in out
of the wet. 1t is folly to expend millions
in patching up obsolete and worthless
arks But we hope for better things. The
country has been sufficiently disgusted
with sham economy The people want
our flag to float in every sea from the
masts ofmagniiicent merchant steamships
and handsome, fast, efficient men-of-war.

THOSE Republicans, so-called, who sit
quietly ON the top rail of the party fence
until victory is won and then jump
down to help gather the fruits of that
victory, are among the loudest and most

in excess of the demand.

II is solemnly urged by grave Demo-

the lead Of Mr.. Voorhees, on the tariff
question it will not have single issue
left. The objection is not well taken.
The party has suffered so severely from
each and all of its issues for the past
twenty-one years that it ought to be glad
TO get rid Of the last of bad lot.

If the honesty of an executive officer

NEITHER "a tariff for protection" nor "a
tariff for revenue only" is the true policy.
But so long as duties of imports are the
accepted means of raising large portion
of our indispensable income common
sense and patriotism demand that those
duties should be SO laid as to afford pro-
lection to American industries without
expressing any class for the benefit Of
another.

Macveagh and a Ieaky Cabinet.


The remarkable statement concerning
a recent Cabinet meetingpublished in the
Star Of Saturday, may be work of fiction
founded on fact. It's coloring is too high
for nature, though not too high for effect.
Those who know the President know
that he never pounds tables or desks, and
that he preserves quiet demeanor, even
under exciting circumstances. The facts
upon which the romantic story could have
been foundedare asfollows The Attorney
General has the right, under the law, TO
appear in any case in which the United
States is party. That he is aware of
the existence ofthis law is proven by his
great zeal in the star-route business from
March to September. But the Attorney
General, who could work himself up into
paroxysms over the star.route cases and
write editorials for the New York Times
begging people to help him howl against
the accused in advance of any
hearing by the grand jury, has all
the time been as indifferent TO
the case of Guiteau as though he
had killed one of his own kind in
private brawl. The idea that il was
more his duty to see that alleged postal
frauds were punished than that the as
sassin of the late President should he
convicted passes all comprehension, but
it is none the less true. There was q fear
on the question of jurisdiction in the
Guiteau case. What cared MacVeagh? /?
If he had arranged with Guiteau's coun-
sci for some scenic effects on the trial, in
furtherance of the innuendoes conveyed
by his shrugs and silences last July, he
could not have been moro passive in the
case. AT last he was discovered to be on
the eve of absconding from this city to
avoid the disgrace Of the failure he
seemed to anticipate in the star-route
cases Such facts as these might well have
been the foundation for very plain talk
at the last Cabinet meeting he attended.
The REpuDLICAN has no reporter in He Cdbi-
net, as tho Star and Post appear to have.
The latter paper announced the day for
tie calling of the extra session of the
Senate at time when it was q
secret. And now the Star furnishes q
pretended report of long conversation
in Cabinet, which appears by the re.
sponses of Secretaries Window and Kirk
wood in yesterdays REPUBLICAN to be
such an approximation to truth as to pre-.
vent an explicit denial. Well, let the
mystery remain unsolved. Whether the
reported dialogue between the President
and the fugitive Attorney General be
measurably correct or wholly unfounded
the truth remains that MacVeagh mixed
with vile characters and engaged in dis
graceful practices to make notoriety fol
himself in the star-route cases, and that
he pretended that it was his duty that
urged him on. And yet when Presi'
dent was killed-the man who made him
Attorney -General-the assassin was as
free from all danger at the hands of this
same Attorney-General as though he had
committed no crime.

WHEN is the information going to be
filed against Postmaster-General James
for corruptly paying 1000 on the very
contract which, upon his oath, is charged
as being fraudulent, and for making
which he is prosecuting Brady? Brady
stopped the pay under it for non-perform-
ance. James fined Walsh $4,000 for the
non-performance. Then to please the
contractor he forgave him for his failure,
and also for the fraud, and paid the
whole shot. Does that acquit Brady, or
convict james?

SUPPOSE that when the heroes of the
North were rushing to arms in defense of
the old flag in 1861 it had been predicted
that in 1881 survivors ofthe Union army
honest, capable, worthy men-would be
denied q chance to earn bread for their
families in Government employ here in
Washington, while good positions would
be given to ex-confederate Bourbons on
the recommendation of Republican Con-
gressmen--supposing all this had been
predicted, was there q man ON earth at
that time who would not have derided
the prediction us the vaporing of lunatic?
