Weed writes to the Tribune, obiecting to the
passage by the legislature of the pending
street cleaning bill. He SAWS: "Recognizing
the efforts of prominent citizens as disn,er
ested and pr,iseworthy, .m constrained,
after much reflection, to cay their plan is
highly Objectionable, They seem to have
lost sight of the fact that such vast power

an individual, and that individual ia sure to
be now and always prominent partisan.

The object of the visit was to learn of the
probable amount Of business for the road,
the facilities for building: to learn the SEN
timent of the people on the route, whether in
favor or opposed and to see how much in
dividuals and towns or both are willing to
do, what amount per mile they will contribute
toward the construction cost.
The visitors talked as men meaning bust
ness. They made no boasts and expressed
no hostility only good will to us and our
commercial interests. They were met by a
goodly number including many active bust
ness men of Machias. They left a favorable
impression and VT trust they carried similar
sentiment away.
We learn that all along the route the Wis
itors were pleased with what they saw and
heard. Encouragement was given to as free
and full extent rs was expected on the part
Of individuals and towns.
The prospect for road was never more
encouraging; there is light ahead! II our

In making appointments to Office Presi-
dent Garfield has q great advantage in the
knowledge which he has acquired in pub
lie life Of men and politics We have
never had a President since the days OF
jefferson better informed upon these
points than Garfield. Compare him in
this respect with Grant or Hayes when
they entered upon the Presidency. Gener-
IL Grant knew almost nothing OF the men
who led, moulded, controlled, and repre-
sented public sentiment in regard to po-
litical a6airswhen he was chosen President.
Hence when he selected his Cabinet the
makeup Enthusiastically displayed his igno-
rance of the work in hand and the proper
materials with which to do it. So Of lesser
appointments, many Of them being be-
slowed upon unfit persons, and tor rea-
sons which would not have influenced the

mon and politics been larger In his sec
ond term Grant had gained a better ac-
auaintance with his duties and the meth

likes and dislikes. controlled him to a
considerable extent where broad policy
should have guided him. So it was
with President Hayes in some measure.
A wider and more intimate knowledge
with actual politics and master minds in
that field, would have taught him some
things that he knows now by experience,
which If earlier known would have made
his administration greater success.
Il Is fortunate for President Garfield.
and the country also. that through his
long and continued service in Congress
and association with leading men in all
parts of the United States. he comes to his
Office thoroughly informed upon the i'm
portant points mentioned above. Prob
ably few men have a more intelligent
comprehension Of what his duties arc, the
methods by which he should he guided in
performing them, and the men who should
be the instruments in carrying on the gov
eminent, than President Garfield. In Sc
lecting his Cabinet he did not seek I'M

but he took men Of experience in public
affairs, of commanding influence, oil

stantial aid in all things. So in the filling
of the minor offices there will be sound
discretion used. Mistakes will undoubt
eddy occur, as they are unavoidable. but
they will not be so numerous or so great
when such men as Garfield and his Cabi
net are ut the helm. as when men OF little
or no political knowledge or practical ex
