Cabinets and Rumors of Cabinets.

Cabinets and Rumors of Cabinets.
If every man of sense will reflect for n
moment he will see that the selection by
the President of an official family Of
seven men, who are to be fit for high
places, agreeable to their chief and to each
other, and ready and willing to break off
from all other plans of business and
pleasure, is not a slight task. Every sec
ton Of the country and every section of
the party naturally interests the Presi-
dent, and If these can be considered in
the selection of successors to the
present heads of Departments, no
doubt he will consider them. Tuesday
last was the first day when such subject
became n proper one for conversation.
Tarrying here, then, thereafter but two
days to attend to the few unimportant Off
cial matters which could not be delayed,
he left on Thursday for New York to at
tend to closing up his own private bust
ness. There has been, then, no time for
Cabinet-making, and it is safe to assume
that none has been done.
The Cabinet will be formed by the
President, by and with the advice and
consent of the Senate, and he is one who
can and will keep his own counsels. The
public may be assured that he will not
collect around him swarm of newspaper
correspondents and whisper in their re-
spective ears the mighty secret, even if he
had determined upon his Cabinet.
Following the fashion Of other papers,
the active and penetrating knights of the
lcad-pencil who gather news for TIE RE-
PUBLICAN occasionally venture to make q
slate or break one. 1t makes entertain
ing reading, even though the editor
herein shows how impossible it is to ac-
tually know the secret purposes of the
President. The gossips will tell our
young men what they hear, and as q
duty to our readers their stories will DO
told for what they are worth. In the
Presidents own good timo he will
choose his Cabinet. 1t may be at the
extra session it may be at the regular
session. We believe it will embrace the
country's purest and ablest statesmen.
The President may rely upon the strong
common sense of the people to sustain
him in the course he shall mark out for
himself The late President selected as
his chief adviser the great party leader
with whom he had the most inti-
mate and friendly relations. Presi-
dent Arthur cannot, in our opinion,
better satisfy the country than by select
ing for one of his advisers the great party
leader with whom he has the most inti-
mate and friendly relations. There will
be much factious outcry at any appoint
ment which shall really please the Presi-
dent himself, but he is not likely to heed
such clamor. The best interests of the
country demand that he sbnull NOT
