| If the most reliable information from
Arthur's friends, even those who profess to
have no sympathy with thestar route plum
.flerers, are growing more and more bitter
against Attorney General MacVeagh. They
charge him with deserving his post of duty
without cause; they assert that if the star
route cases fail, MacVeagh will be to
blaine, and that none of the responsibility
for such failure can be fairly put on
Arthur's shoulders, They insist that his
persistence in his resolution to withdraw
from the cabinet is virtual confession
that the government has not good case
against any of the star -reqteF swindlers
This sort of talk coming from republican
sources has created @tller impression that
thesnew administration is preparing to
Oily daily with the prosecutions.
MacVeaghs friends protest that it is alb
surd to say that in his personal and official
duty TO remain with the new president,
simply TO await the results of the star route
cases, which have for some time been in
the hands of such able counsel as George
Bliss, Benz. Fl. Brewster. Col. Cook and
the agents of the department of justice.
They declare that if the president is sincere
and earnest in the matter, he can have no
difficulty in securing an attorney general
who viii vigorously support the prosecu
ton. They say that MacVeagh has re
peatedly and consistently declared during
the last month that he was not in affiliation
with the kind of political views and admin
istratien tendencies of the president. He
said as much to Arthur himself. He
thoroughly disapproves of the course pur
sued by the administration in aiding and
abetting the Malone movement. If he
should remain in the cabinet he thinks it
more than probable he would be called
upon, as attorney general, to look after the
appointments of marshals and district
attorneys in sympathy with the re-
adjuster cause. In short he
could not feel at home, in the midst of.
the stalwart influences which have become
predominant Whether MacVeagh's
friends or his opponents have the better of
the argument is not important; but the
attempt to saddle him with the RESPONSE
bility for the failure which may come in the
star route prosecutions is altogether trans
parent.
An editorial of the New York Times
on this point has caused considerable
comment there. The Times says: What
is needed to give vitality TO the prosecution
of the star route eonspirators is simply
this: The removal of Corkhi1l, and the
active sympathy of the president.
All of which simply means that the adj
ministration is looking for some loophole
out of which to creep in the prosecution of
the star-route cases. IF Arthur wanted |
those thieves brought to justice, there are
plenty of men in this country fitted for the |
post of public prosecution. MacVeagh is
not the only competent person. If he does
not it Is easy enough to let the prosecu
lions drop and claim it is because Mac
yeagh resigned.

Colonel Bob Harlan, of Cincinnati, and

for the legislature in Hamilton county and
was the only republican defeated, is feeling
the bitterness of his defeat. He proclaims
in Washington that the republican party is
