PRO IND CON,


Shall the Commissioner of Agriculture
q cAbinet officer be? 1t was matter of
prime urgenca with the Changers, when
that secret order was at its hey day, to
press upon Congress and the President,
the propriety of giving the head of the
Agricultural bureau a seat in ths cabinet.
The Congress of Farmers, which sat in
convention with the Louisville exposition,
indicated hearty desire that
the commissioner be made a
number of the cabinet. Last
year the House passed bill making this
change. Mr.. Nimmo, chief of the bureau
of stntist;c'. objects to the project, and
gives his reasons as follows:
First, that it would create an executive de-
rartment with no executive functions and hav-
ing the simple bureau occupation of furnishing
information; secondly, tina, additional infor-
nation would be gailed by making the CON-
missioner cabinet officer thirdly, that the geo.
logical survey and bureau of education already
do a portion of the work proposed for the new
cabinet officer; finally, that the present bureaus
specialists in agriculture would have Il turn
their attention to subjects not connected with
agriculture. The Senate did not pass the House
bill, and these and other objections should be
answered before the proposed change Is at
tempted.
Mr.. Nimmo's ground is we'll taken, and
has produced profound respect at Wash
ington.

PREsTDEYrI4L SUCCESSION.


10 proper provision exists, il the case
of the removal, death or inability of both
the President and Vice President for the
suitable exercise of the Executive func-
tions. In the last congress Senator Hoar
introduced bill which passed the Senate,
but was not acted on by this House provid-
ing for the succession of cabinet officers
in prescribed order, and the person to
whose lot it fell to act in the Executive
capacity was to exercise and discharge the
powers aud duties of the Office for the re-
mainder of the unexpired term, or until
the Presidents disability was removed.
Senator Hoar has re-introduced the bill,
with an important change however, under
the new bill the person succeeding to the
Office holds it only until President can
be elected by the people. and he is re-
quired to summon congress in session
within twenty days after assuming the ex-
ecutivs Office. Some law to guard against
the contingency of vacancy is demanded
and should be passed by the present con-
gress, which should net, as
did the 47th congress, dodge
the responsibility. 1t will be much
more satisfactory to have the trouble of
an extra election once IN a while than TO
have The matter remain in state of doubt.
The plan of Senator Hoar may not be shs
wisest, but it affords protection and until
something better is devised, the consider
alton necessary to make the bill a Law
should be accorded to it. The feature to
Immediately call an extra election in case of
vacancy isgood and the Office should never
be in the hands of a man not elected to j.
by the people.

ALBERT LEA, MINI, Dec. 1O.-D.ring
the past fsw sdays there has been quite an
excitement in this city owing to fire bugs
attempts. Thursday morning last at a.
M, an attempt was made TO fire the two
story building of n. L. Nelson, occupied
as saloon on first floor by O. PiRkham
and second floor as dwelling. Fortunately
the smoke awakened the hired girl, Who
awakened the Pinkham brothers, and by
great exsrtion the fire was s1s1nguished by
them aud some neighbors without calling
out the Ere engine. The fire vas undoubt-
s3ly the work of fire bug, as quantity
of rags saturated with bsnzine were dis
covered. hole had been bored in the
siding through which oil had been poured,
On Sunday morning, the 9th, at about 8
a. m-, enc FIRE alarm called out the engine
and is was found that the addition to the
rear part of A. Wiegand's saloon was on
fire. Kerosene had been poured on
the side of the building, also on the roof.
but owing to the damp weather that
had prevailed for the preceding two DAYS.
ignition was very slow, and by dint of hard
labor it was got under control before any
very serious damage was sustained. About
the time the blaze was under control the
engine for tbs first time in the MANY fires
II has osttled with gave out. The remain
ing few oharrsd embers were easily
qssnehsd With pals. On examination of
sas saglne the same evening 1t was discov-
sred that some bastard, presumably the
ire bag, had run crowbar through the
suction pipe, thereby making it impossible
to keep sufficient water in the boiler. Had
the tiend succeeded in his attempt there is
hardly any doubt but serious loss of life
would have occurred, as both buildings
were occupied in the second stories and
Wsre closely adjacent to other buildings
oesupled In second stories as residences.
Indignation is very high, and if the mis-
crsenf IS caught it will undoubtedly be
short prayer and tight rope. with loss of
breath to somebody at present unknown.
