Retirement Prom the Cabinet

WASHINGTON, D. c., December 2s.-The
following statement has been furnished
for publications On the 22d Of ofseptember,
Immediately after President Arthur had
taken the oath Of office, administered by
the Chief Justice Of the United States,
full meeting Of the Cabinet was held in the
Vice-Presidents room, in the Capitol, at

said It would be agreeable to him to have
the Cabinet remain in position untilaiter
the regular meeting OF Congress in Decem-
Der. Three weeks afterwards Mr. Blaine
addressed the following letter to the Presi,
dent;
WASHINGTON, October 18th, 1881.
To Ny Dear M PrslidenE
When put my resignation In your
hands on the 22l OF September, yOn jnti-
mated your wish that all the members OF
the Cabinet should retain their places until
the meeting Of Congress in December. Az
Secretary Windom's expected return to the
Senate may preCipitate a vacancy in the
Treasury Department in few days, Ilayo
thought II might render an earlier recon-
struction Of your Cabinet desirable to you.
In that event ! trust you will not be
embarrassed, at least so far as | am con-
cerned, by your previous assignment OK
the date for my withdrawal twill be en-
tircly agreeable to me TO turn over the de-
partment 10 my successor OH any day that
will prove most desirable and convenient
for yourself, ! intended to say this TO you
yesterday, but from the pressure Of other
things, Iforgot It,
Very respectfully IA
lSignedl JAS. g. BLAINE.
In the Interview following this letter tho
President repeated the request that Blaine
should remain until December, Therewas
never at any time, the slightest misrnder-
standing between the President and Blaine
about the latter's retirement, and their per
sonal relations continued, as they have al
ways been, entirely friendly and cordial.

Gen. Garfield said shortly after his
election that he proposed to become a
good listener for the next three months,
So far he has fulfilled the conditions of
his voluntary prospectus. And this
fact must be borne in mind when read
ing the telegram on first page relative
to the visit of the Colorado delegation
to Mentor in behalf of Ex-Gov. Routt,
of Colorado, for postmaster general.
OF course Gen. Garfield listened with
close attention. He is gentleman, and
besides, he promised to be a good lis
tener. Hence there IS nothing in this
statement to indicate that a cabinet
position would go to Mr.. Routt.
Considering that to the people of the
west. and especially to the people of
Colorado, the interior department, with
its care of Indians, lis paramount in
Importance, it is strange that Colorado
HASN'T made a bid for the secretaryship
of the interior. Schurz is going-going
so far that he will never again be heard
of, SO there is a fine opening for a young
man desiring the interior department.
And then, if a western man were to as
pire for this department the chances
are that all the western states and ter
ritories would lend him a helping hand,
because it would be to their interest to
have a thorough western man in that
position. But the western folks out
side of Colorado are not feeling greatly
in need of a postmaster general, and
they are not likely to volu nteer in
Routt's cause to any great extent.

ANNEXATION
4 WySHrBgiIs FaF0Fs The Annexation
of Colorado.

The following letter appeared 10 the
Denver Tribune Of yesterday;
Cheyenne. Wyo., Jan 10, lSsL.-Now
that the Colorado legislature is in ses-
sion, and congress is in session, it might
not be out of place to bring TO the mind
of the people of Colorado the views
taken by about ~two-thirds of the people
of this territory, to the fact that they
are very much in favor of being annexed
to Colorado. How would it look to
have an addition of 100 miles, on the
north, added 10 Colorado, takingin Fit.
Laramie and perhaps TT. Fetterman?
Now, let us see what would be gained
by the people along the line of the
Union Pacific railroad by annexation.
They would be entitled to a voice in
selecting their governor, judges of the
supreme and district courts, as well as
all state officers, which are. as now, APP
pointed by the president with consent
of congress. These United States Of
icials are generally very distasteful to
the people, however intelligent and
well meaning they NAV be. and do not
exactly fill the bill. 50 to speak. They
would be entitled to a vote for presi-
dent IL annexed, while now they are
entirely DISTINGUISHED in that direction.
What would Colorado gain by sueb
annexation?
She would add TO her large amount
of taxable property in cattle ana mer-
chandise, as well as about 400 miles of
railroads.
She would gain about IS. 600 inhabi-
tants.
Would be entitled TO one more con-
gresham, il annexed before the new
congressional superintendent is made.
Would give her considerable more
valuable territory. and a gain of con
siderable prestige in the national af,
fairs.
What would Uncle Sam gain by such
annexation?
lie would save the entire expense or
running the territory, which amounts
to considerable. Conld annex the bal
ance to Montana for judicial and other
purposes.

sideration of the people of Colorado, as

in taking aim. 80 deliberate were they. The
rides cracked about the same time when
Morton was seen to leap into the air and fall
heavily, pierced through the forehead by the
rife ball of his antagonist. Deaf Smith put
up his hand and wiped streak of blood from
his cheek, where the skin had been abraded
rife in his tracks and walked deliberately into
the woods whence he came and disappeared
before the astonished crowd of spectators.
Five days afterward he returned in company
with nineteen others and President Houston
and removed the government archives from
Austin without molestation.
