A. r. BoTELER, ESQ We give the Pres

worthy act in the appointment of Hon. a. 4.
Botoler, of Jefferson county, West Va to be
member of the new tariff commission. Mr..
Botoler is an accomplished gentlemap-one
OF the kind that used to be styled cold Vir-
GINA gentlemen" that is. SO far as manners
and culture concerned. but not in respect
for some other traits which our northern
friends have succeeded too we'll in connects
ing in the public mind with those mentioned.
He is well qualified to discharge tho duties
of his new place, and We arc not surprised to
learn that tho Democratic congressman from
West Virgiuia recommended him to tho Pres
ident. We suspect that Mr.. Tucker also
recommended him; for one of tho most pleas
ant mud profitable and scholarly discussions
we ever heard took place thirty years ago in
Romney, " Va, between Messrs Tucker
and Botcler and we are confident that nei-
Their of them has forgotten how he compli-
mented the other on that ocoasion.

JUDGE HoGE's ANNOUNCEMENT.

The letter of juno 9Th, 1882, to Judge
Hoge, and sinre published in several news
papers, alludes to an editorial in this paper,
thus involving necessarily upon our part the
duty to notice both the call and his reply.
We stated, subsequently to that editorial, the
basis of our assumption, that Judge Hoge's
name would not DO before tho Convention,
viz: the assertion of tho Judge himself to
that effect, made at the time, and reported to
us by those who heard it. Tho Judge does
not now deny that at Fairmont, and before
the nomination was conferred, he expressed
willingness no. to claim for himself re-
nomination" in 1892 He now explains
this concession by asserting that .sno man,
whatever be his pretences, has a right 10
claim that distinction" Does the Judge
mean by this to deny that he made any con>
cessiOn whatever at Fairmont, except the re-
linquishmeut of an imaginary right" which
ne now says had no existence, and which no
one but an idiot would ever suppose to exist
If he made no substantial concession, why
not plant himself upon that position fairly
and squarcly without equivocaton IF, on
the other hand, there was not an illusory and
imaginary concession on Judge Hoge's part,
but real and substantial one, why not give
it correctly, and fully. and let the people
judge for themselves of its character and OBJ
ligatory force? Why "pslter in double
sense" and claim the power of self.absolu>
ton from all concessions, or promises, how>
ever solemuly made, or entered into7
A Washington correspondent of the Wheel
ing Register, sometime since, in a communi.
cation which Judge Hoge must have seen,
stated net only that there was substantial
promise, but that the same was reduced to
writing at Judge HogO's request, by gen.
tloman Of unimpeachable honor, and unas-
sailable integrity. Does Judge Hoge deny
this? Does he, or will he, deny tina. he
has said, over his own signature, that he has
implicit confidence in that gentleman and
would abide that written memorandum? An
explanation is in order, and we await do
velopments.

Congressional district, aud now Mr. Lucas
will be again before the Convention asking
the nomination for Congress from the I'd
