SICK, BUT RULING.

For more than two months the President has
been lying between lie and death. After two
months of silence, he meets his Cabinet for the
first time and asks anXously about the work of
the Departments. What does he hear? l. the
public service in disorder? Are grave public
interests neglected because the hand of the
ruler is not the helm? The ship that the
| captain has to steer himself is not generally a
very large one. The President finds no press
ing difficulty in any Department. The Gov
ernment runs to all appearance, Just as if he
bad not been wounded. We all know, too,
that the cheering information was not merely n
| smooth word given to soothc a sick man. In
point of fact, the Departments do run, as we
all know, in perfect accord with the Presidents
known will.
Yet this is not what some German philoso-
piers have styled Government without Il
head. 1t is not what some captious critics
have called Government by Cabinet" The
| Cabinet knows and executes the will of the
Executive just as great ship will keep its
| appointed course, though the captain may be
sick in his cabin, because the officers success
sively in charge carry out his instructions, so
the Government gets along remarkably well
without any visible President, not because it
has no head, but because his will is still ex-
ecuted by his chosen assistants. In short, the
Government runs not because we lack a Presi-
dent, but because we have one.
1t is the will of the President which is felt in
all important matters. 1t was said recently
| that Secretary Window had decided upon an
| important financial step-the calling of 3l2 per
cent bonds But reasonable men refused to
believe the story. Technically, the Secretary
has intrusted to him by law large powers such
| as are conferred upon no other Cabinet officer
| and yet there was general feeling, among
| those who are well-informed, that he would
not see Lit to act without consulting the Presi-

nous Carcelon conspiracy to steal the State
Government in 1879.
The campaign just ended was very quiet
one on the part OF the Republicans. They re-
lied chiefly on the strength Of their party ma
tiCnally and the fitness of their nominee, cX-
Governor Dingley, the veteran Editor Of The
LeUistoa JougWaI. All the noise was made by
the opposition. At first the Greenbackers and
Democrats ran separate tickets--a transparent
scheme for getting the membership of both
organizations well in tow but shortly before
the election the Democratic candidate took
himself out Of the way, and turned over his
following bodily to the Greenbacker-no very
difficult affair, for the Maine Democrats have
grown accustomed to be shifted about and
traded off by their leaders in any way that
promises success, at no matter what sacrifice OF
principle and consistency. There is no reason
to doubt that whatever opposition now exists to
the Republican party in the District was MUS
tered i'll support of Gilbert, the Grcenback can
didate, except a little handful of Prohibitions
lists, who had Il nominee of their own. The
result was the election of Dngley by ma
jority nearly treble that polled by the Rcpubli-
cans year ago. In the September election of
1850 the Republicans carried the lid District
by 1,446 majority. On Monday, according to
al
majority Of about 1900. but fuller details
show that the majority cannot fall below the
imposing figure o 5000.
There can be no two honest opinions about the
meaning of this event. 1t shows that the Dem
ocratic party-not in Maine alone but through
out the country for there were no local issues
involved in this special elcction-is weak and
dispirtcd, and that Grcenbacklsm is fast-ex-
piring dclusion. The partial success of the
Fusion movement in Maine last year has pro-
longed the life of the Grccnback organization
there Tor short time; but whether standing
alone or in alliance with the Democracy, il is
powcllcss for further mischief. The Republi-
cans OF the States which vote in November have
good reason for satisfaction in the news from
Maine. 1t gives strong assurance tts9xas& lee
tons in the North will be carrictrx4fT year
against the party which supports the heroic and
lOng-Sutering President.

take occasion respectfully to call the attention
of the chairman to the impressive fact that the
Hundred were the only regular and the
only respectable organization in the county.
That pure and eminent statesman. Mr..
john Fox, would demonstrate that both the
other factions sold ont Hancock and very nearly
sacrificed Mayor Grace last year moreover, as
he would whiningly msinuate they left him
and his partners in the lease of Irving Hall with
only the building on their hands. Then would
follow confusion worse cOnfounded," ending,
probably, in final resort by the desparing
chairman TO the lottery to bring abont the
necessary harmony. 1t is rather pleasant
prospect fol the Democracy, and it is certainly
an instructive spectacle for the public gener-
ally The lottery scheme last year drove many
Democrats to vote the Republican local ticket;
we attribute the large difference between Cen
era HancOcks vote and that of Mayor Grace
to the shameless character of last years union
of the local Democracy. Yet we may see them
again forced TO a like Insncere and disreput
able union this year. The Democratic State
Committee feels that it cannot carry the State
without the Tammany vote. Tammany feels
that it cannot gain any local advantage in the
face of the opposition of the Tilden State
Democrats and the local One Hundred. These

disreputable that an earnestly and honestly
united Republican party can readily defeat
them in State ard County too. As a mere matter

factions made in such fashion Whenever

dent, unless in an emergency which should
require immediate action. 1t did not seem to
the public that the situation demanded any
immediate action. Therefore the public in
ferred that Mr.. Window would not act at ALL
In short the country placed the same faith in
the Secretary that the President placed in him
that he would not, without good and clear
reason, go beyond the expressed desires of the
President. The same rule applies to all the
Cabinet officers They are honorable gentle
men. Therefore the country knows that they
are incapable of taking an important step,
possibly adverse to the will of the President
without consulting him.
Custom has made a similar situation familiar
to the people of Great Britain. The Ministry
there, it true, is the real Government, as it is
not here. Yet nobody suspects that the form
of consulting the Queen will be omitted, in any
important matter. Here the President has his
warrant directly from the people, and they are
the sovereigns. No Cabinet will ever be seen
that WILL in any grave matter, disregard the
wishes of the President.
Though sleeping, he yet lives His assistants
know, for example, that the Star Route matters
must be pushed unsparngly. The Postma ster-
General, therefore, has no hesitation in an
