President Garfield has named the cab
met by whose aid and assistance the exc
eutivs department of the national govern
ment is to be conducted for the next four
years. The list contains the names OF
James g. Blaine, Reber. Lincoln, Samuel
j. Kirkwoed, William Window. Willian
NJ. Hunt, Wayne MaeVeagh, and J. L.
James. Among the most satisfactory
nominations are those of Blaine as Secra-
tary of State, and j. L. James. as Post
Master General. The former, with his
varied political experience and Hndoubted
ability will conduct the foreign branch with
credit to himssf and the nation. The
latter as Post Master at New York city

been the case with previous incumbent
of that position. Macy eagh as Attorney
General is also creditable appointment.
The remaining members Of the new cab
inst may prove the best men for their
respective positions that could be secured,
but as yet they have given no public
display of their peculiar fitness
Window has for some time represented
Minnesota in the National Senate. but
has never In that body figured as q promi-
nent member on the committee of finance.
It remains to be seen why such promotion
was forced upon him, as it is we'll known

pointment. Kirkwood as Secretary of the
Interior is also peculiar selection, as it
is not generally knewn what claims the
Senator from lows had, through his
friends. or by his own capacities, Cd this
new administration.
Lincoln's only claim for recognition was
that he is the son of the late martyrsd
