The COURTESY OF THE SENATE -Washingto on :,
April lit is asserted that when the worse
comes to the worst Senator Conkling will ask
the rejection of Robertson the score of sena-
torial courtesy, to which senator's have rarely
appealed in vain. This courtesy is sort of
mutual understanding that no appointments,
be confirmed when both senators Of the State
wherein such appointments arc male are hostilc
thereto. The custom has been generally OBJ
served, and it is stated that no man has been n
greater stickier for this courtesy than Mr.. Blaine
while senator.
An ex-senator relates a circumstance illustra-
tive of this, which is parallel with the case in
point. The break Alr. Blaine had with Presi-
dent Hayes was brought about, lie said, by ex.
actly the same causes rs those now operating
with Conkling. President Hayes nominated u
district attorney and United States marshal for
Maine without consulting the Maine SENATOR
On tho night Of the day that these nominations
we're sent 10 the Senate, Mr.. Blaine was invited
TO n state dinner at the White House. As he
had previously accepted, there was no way for
him to get out Of il. lie attended the dinner
with Mrs. Blaine, but the lat err was so exnsper
nted Mt the treatment her stinguisled husband
had that day received at the hands of the Pres
idcnt, that while she sat the table through every
course, she refused to touch anything offered
The dinner over, Mr.. Bnine and his wife re.
treated, and the Senat or never put his foot i'm
was the occupant. In the Senate Mr.. Blaine
claimed the courtesy of the body to reject the
nominations, because lie had rot been consult ell
concerning them, and they were both rejected
The senatorial deadlock is causing great an.
noyance Mt the White House rs w! MS among
those whose nominations are pending. While it
has not yet reached that point, il is anticipate ell
that an extended session Of this sort may seri
ous'y embarrass the Administration. No steps
can be taken to put things in running order
until the deadlock is broken. Not only the
Court Of claims. but the Supreme Court is pra.
tically blocked. The indisposition Of q single
member ofthe latter breaks the working quorum
AS the Supreme Court is already several years
behind, every delay is u hardship to litiganis
Those whose names have been sent in for vari
Gus offices are growing exceedingly impatient
This imPatience extends to every district, State
md territory in the Union. A prominent Re
publican Senator, who is inciinel to be indepen.
dent says that this state Of affairs cannot last
long. Whether he means that his side will draw
the limit or not remains to be secn.-Cor News
